[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9291102, member: 7030563"] I love Bladesingers and have played a bunch of them, but that is generally a different kind of Gish than an EK. To go Bladesinger you generally want a high intelligence and you need a 13 Intelligence to multiclass a bladesinger, while Intelligence is usually a dump stat on EKs. EKs are also usually heavy armor and high strength, while Bladesingers are usually light or no armor and high dexterity. Those are strereotypes and you can go against them and build heavy armor Bladesingers and dex/intelligence EKs and be fine, but usually you would pick the other class if you wanted that. I do agree about multiclassing an EK, but I think 10th-12th level is the sweet spot as far as max fighter level. Usually I multiclass it with Paladin, sometimes with a Warlock dip as well (for EB/AB). 10 levels of EK gives you Eldritch Strike which works really, really well with the Paladin smite spells and when you use them you would not have a bonus so you would use extra attack not war magic ...... which is a reason to go one more level to 11 in fighter .... and then if you go 11 there is an ASI and another multiclass caster level at 12. Here is a 19th level EK 11/Paladin 6/Warlock 2 I am playing right now: [U][URL unfurl="true"]https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/115030264[/URL][/U] She has been a blast to play. She will probably take her last level in EK. [/QUOTE]
