The control spells are generally why casters are OP.

That wasn’t your only proposal.

Besides healing allies is there anything they could really do that a 2024 Battlemaster Fighter cannot?

Must be a pain for mods to manage duplicated similar threads with this being the case.

Are you trying to make the problem worse?

Thanks for being so very informative. ;)

IMO. Alert isn’t that great on a melee focused bladesinger. It’s really good on a control wizard though. Still a good feat but yea.

Just last session I had to remind our fighter he had 2nd wind and action surge. Watching them continually hit the guy I had Tasha’s laughter on instead of the other guy was painful. They got advantage and hit but the monster saved… And our sorcerer still never remembers he has innate sorcery.

A background for +2 int, +1 con, magic initiate is not a poor choice for a bladesinger. It's one of the best. We can quibble over whether it's the absolute best or not, but it's one of the best. I'd vote magic initiate as being better. None of my choices were bad. And I assumed a single...

That fixed mine as well! I’ve been dealing with that for like a year plus.

Int and con is a lot better than Dex and con for a bladesinger. Like that’s really your recommendation??? I don’t agree. If there was a magic initiate background that could take strength without dex or con I’d have happily chosen it. But since that doesn’t exist I take a background that...

I don’t think the rules require more than a single free hand for every material component and the same free hand for somatic components. Am I mistaken?

That’s an every other turn solution, right? You draw the weapon on turn 1. So you can’t stow it after the attack. Then next turn after the attack you can’t stow stow it. Repeat the process. Or am I mistaken on how weapon drawing/stowing works?

Mine does that on one of my phones browsers. I assume it’s blocking something those tools need enabled. Works fine on pc though.

2 handed weapon, you let go with 1 hand and thus get a free hand temporarily. Your hands aren't glued to the thing.

focus don't do anything for somatic components, which shield spell has.

I went with con because #1 it's a very reasonable choice and #2 it comes as a standard option on the sage background for magic initiate and dex does not. Why would I assume 6 shields in a 4 round single encounter day? Why would you waste more actions casting false life instead of attacking in...

Component pouch + greatsword solves this, no?

Yea, basically. It might actually look worse vs a paladin lol. Dumping smites and having advantage on your attacks from say Vengance is going to be disgusting. Possibly shield spells as well from magic initiate and damn! Just for funsies Vengeance Paladin 7 HP ~68 (Level 3 slot for Aid) AC...
