[QUOTE="auburn2, post: 8173235, member: 6855259"] Has anyone tried this combo? I have played bladesinger before but I never multiclassed one of them and I have always thought it was a bad idea to multiclass them beacues you need to spam shield and can not afford to lose the slots. I joined a group though and the character I wanted to play was not really a good option considering the party. I was going to play an Arcane archer but two of three players are already ranged characters. So I decided I would go with a melee oriented rogue. I rolled into a 18 dex and 16 intelligence after Variant Human bonuses and fey touched feat. The idea is to act like a rogue but with shield spell and bladesong for a kicking AC and things like blur and shadow blade at later levels. I figure I will subclass into Arcane Trickster so as not to fall as far behind on spell slots. Progression is R1-W2-R4-W6- then rogue until we quit. Feats: Level 1 Fey touched (spells Hex, Misty Step) level 6 (R4) - Dex +2 Level 8 (W4) - Int +2 I probably won't get another Feat. I am thinking at 10th level (Blade singer 6, arcane trickster 4) I will be able to do booming blade and a weapon attack in the same turn while also concentrating on hex, shadow blade or blur for extra damage or a killer AC.
