[QUOTE="Ark the Pie King, post: 7096431, member: 6874479"] Ahoy ahoy! Title says it all, here. I've been reading threads and guides and articles for two solid days now, but the more I look into things the more I get confused. I'll confess I don't really know the rules super well, but I'm an old 3.5/4e vet so I know most of the terminology pretty well. The problem really lies in the fact that I don't know precisely what I should be looking for, and from what I've been reading there are a hefty number of trap options which is also making he hesitant to commit to any one idea. So, I really like Gish types. Swordmages, Duskblades, Hexblades, Maguses, Eldritch Knights, Bladesingers, Battle Mages, Red Mages, whatever you want to call them. I'm all about that guy who can swing a sword and blast someone else with a spell, and in a perfect world also cure a buddy but I'm not gonna be greedy because I realize that last one is probably out of reach. I've been looking over several of the different options but I'm having a lot of trouble telling what the actual differences in them are and which ones are worth taking.
