D&D 5E Your best Eldritch Knight?

Druid doesn't have any great attack spell at first level....except Ice Knife, I guess. I'm tempted to just take healing word.
I don't see using attack spells as a good idea. You will quickly be way behind in damage.

Control spells (Entangle), buff spells (longstrider), or utility spells (goodberry) are all solid choices though.
4th level hex from Fey-touched with disadvantage on STR will make it easier to topple people when hitting them with booming blade.
Hex is ability checks, not saves.

+1d6 damage per attack is quite nice for a fighter though. They make lots of attacks.

I like faerie fire a lot.

Druids should really lean into support and control for most part imho.
