'''Eldritch Knight''' is one of the [[Fighter#Level 3|Subclasses]] of [[Fighter]]. These Fighters specialize in [[Spells|spellcasting]], using their martial prowess and magic to attack enemies or support allies in combat. Eldritch Knights use [[Intelligence]] as their [[Spells#Spellcasting Ability and Proficiency|Spellcasting Ability]], and learn spells from the [[Wizard/Spells|Wizard spell list]], favouring the schools of [[Evocation]] and [[Abjuration]].
