I recently built a Sorcerer (Dragon) 11 (Bronze I think? Lightning) and tossed in Elemental Affinity to keep him effective while sticking to zap spells. In play I was super impressed by its function in increasing the application of his spell selections.With GFB alone I feel like its pretty worth it, tacking on flaming sphere I feel like its hyper viable.I want to like Eldritch Knights but I just can't get over the reduced spell progression. I've seen them work really way in play, but I like more than a dabble of spellcasting potential (and this build was prior to GFB). A duelist EK with GFB would be pretty boss.I even considered taking a dip in Monk so I could make quarterstaffs use dex and bladesinger with a q-staff (c'mon staff of striking), but I just don't like taking the dip.Moreover mathematically as far as stats go the only real viable dips for a Bladesinger (unless you're entirely min-maxing by starting at paladin1 [which I'd veto out of principle]) are rogue and fighter.</blockquote>
