[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 9266461, member: 58172"] To clarify, would Sword Art be like the 2014 Warlock "Otherworldly Patron" feature? The Warlock choice of patron comes with extra spells known, and subclass features like, Fey Presence and Mist Step for the Fey subclass. Analogously, the Swordmage would get whatever damage type of Smite made sense and can anticipate the later choice of subclass at level 3, if the player wishes to match them up? I assume the Swordmage is still using the Warlock spell slots per short rest, analogous to the "Pact Magic" feature and its cantrips and slots. However, the Psion classes by LaserLlama and KibblesTasty convert these Warlock slots into spell points that refresh after each short rest. This spell point mechanics works really well, for balance and convenience and versatility. I think all full casters should work this way! Hopefully the 5e Swordmage uses spell points per short rest as well. [/QUOTE]
