[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9572110, member: 7030563"] Nice to see Bladesinger reclaim the mantle as the best tank melee class. :-) For a while in 2024 we have had martial classes who were better martials than Wizards were. IMO the 2024 Bladesinger is way more powerful as a melee character than the 2014 version, this is even more true because the spells are better for melee. A 2014 Bladesinger was severely limited on weapon choice (one finesse weapon or a few with a feat or race). Even if you had full martial proficiency from a dip, most weapons were not viable unless you had extremely high rolls and could run high strength, dex, Int and Con all at the same time . With Truestrike and the new Bladesong that is mostly gone (all gone when in Bladesong), anything not heavy or two-handed is good to go. Also the new Mirror Image is going to be broken with a Bladesinger running maximum AC, especially if getting SAP through a multiclass or 12th level feat. Add in Bladeward and upcast-precast false life and nothing at all can tank like you can .... oh and at level 14 you still get to attack once on the round you cast Mirror Image. [/QUOTE]
