[QUOTE="Paraxis, post: 6503606, member: 13009"] Can you explain how? It is an action to cast, requires concentration, and doesn't work until the caster's next turn. So the rogue is giving up his attack to cast it possibly two if he uses two weapons or some other way makes multiple attacks to cast this cantrip, if he takes damage before his next turn there is a good chance he will fail to maintain concentration, since it doesn't kick in until the next round it can't be combined with eldritch knight war mage ability, I just don't see it. The only time a rogue would gain benefit from the spell would be if he couldn't get advantage any other way, like no place to use his cunning action to hide, and had no allies adjacent to any enemies. I don't see that happening, a rogue would have to be by himself and without any place to hide and in a situation where spending his action to boost his next turn's attack is ideal. [/QUOTE]
