Spellblades are as skilled with arcane magic with their weapons. This versatility is a weapon in itself, often surprising enemies who tend to think an armored fighter cannot cast spells.

      wow this a very bad alternative to eldritch knight.
      Level 7 is so limited it might as well be useless. Spell attack rolls? Really? Lets shoot a firebolt into melee for 2d10 instead of hitting it twice for 2d8+6 at minimum? Oh I know, you want us to fire a SCORCHING RAY. When we are 4 levels behind the wizard who stopped casting it 2 levels earlier.
      Let me guess, spell tyrant is an action. Because of course it would be.

      • Also, maybe Champion is arguably better. I like Spellblade for flavor. I think a Heavy Crossbow will do more damage than any of the cantrips. However, spells like Ray of Frost can be good for battle field control, and keeping the mobs by the Tanks. This class can't use scrolls which isn't true Dnd because you should be able to read a scroll on your spell list. But they can craft scrolls on their spell list which can be sold and that adds to gold to buy stuff like the Belt of Giant Strength. You can't cast another spell when you Action Surge. Kind of funny because it is an action and not an attack, but maybe the Dnd rules say that you can only cast one spell per turn unless the other is a bonus action spell. This is unclear to me. Although, you can cast a spell, then "Action Surge" and attack with Bow or Crossbow. Key here is to take out a creature in the first or second round and that is where this class shines. Magic missile doesn't miss so get them down to low HP and then Magic missile because this eliminates an attacker.



        Finally, Expeditious Retreat is your friend with this class because it allows you to Dash as a bonus action. Allows for Dash on the round you cast it as well. (Contrary to the name it is a great offensive spells.) I would recommend Sword and Board or Two-Hand Weapon over Dual Wielding for this class. Because you want to be using Dash as a bonus action for your turn to close the distance with your enemies. You can do this with a Rogue as well and tag team a individual enemy. Dual Wielding is great for Rogues and Rangers and other Fighter Archetypes, but I think it would be a waste here. Expeditious Retreat does require Concentration, but fighters have proficiency with Constitution saving throws so this just works. I don't think I have lost concentration on it one time, but did not try it with Two-hand weapon fighting yet. I am sure I will lose concentration more often there but it is probably worth it because even if the spell last one round you are on the enemy now where are they going to run.

        • You can dump Str and stat for Dex, Con, and Int. If you get +55 reputation with Arcaneum, (which is doable) then you can buy the "Belt of Giant Strength. Sets Str to 21 but I think it is glitched because it sets Str to 18+ it sets to 22 for some weird reason. You can't dump Str if it is like a 4 though because then you can't wear armor. Had a good role but the game said no you can't continue because you can't even lift a shield.
