[QUOTE="Grimstaff, post: 3433721, member: 34880"] Its always amusing to me the great lengths 3.5 designers have gone to to emulate the simple effectiveness of the 1E Elven Fighter/MagicUser. We have probably 100 or so pages of rules from various splats and corebooks all trying to do fix what d20 multi-classing rules broke: a competetive spell-casting multi-classed character. Just an observation. :) That said, I think that if you favor high-level play, then the Duskblade is a viable option, with enough options at level 12 and higher to keep the character interesting in play. If you favor low-to-mid level games, the class seems a bit of a lame duck, once his few spells are expended he's just a fighter without all the cool feats. [/QUOTE]
