Eldritch Knight Default Path

← All default paths

An armoured warrior who studies spells to back up the blade. Second Wind and Weapon Bond come early, War Magic, Eldritch Strike and Improved War Magic follow at their classic levels, and the many fighter feats go to War Caster, Shield Master and sturdy defences. Free maneuvers, metamagic and antimagic round out a knight who can both cut and counter.
