'''1. 11 Fighter + 1 Wizard / 5-7 Fighter + 5-7 Wizard:''' | '''1. 11 Fighter + 1 Wizard / 5-7 Fighter + 5-7 Wizard:''' Almost certainly the two versions of Eldritch Knight that I've had the most success with, you have two main distinctions here. Taking 11 Fighter levels gives you a 3rd attack per action, while splitting your levels between Fighter and Wizard will give you much more spell slots. As of making this list, a single level of Wizard is enough to learn spells from scrolls for ''any'' level spell slot. | ||
*[[Eldritch Knight]] gains it's maximum spell slots at level 10, capping out at 4 level 1 spell slots and 3 level 2 spell slots. The single level of Wizard will not be enough to grant you access to level 3 spells, unfortunately. You could drop to 10 levels of Fighter, but you'd lose out on your third attack, which doesn't feel worth it for this build specifically. HOWEVER, the big advantage this version of the build has is [[Eldritch Strike]], which can be ''extremely'' strong. | |||
*At +- 6 Fighter and 6 Wizard, you will have up to 2 level 4 spell slots, which I would argue is enough to feel worth it, plus whatever bonuses from your Wizard subclass, like [[Enchantment]]. Since you lose out on [[Eldritch Strike]], you'll lean more on [[Arcane Synergy]] to land your big spells, but you will have more of them per long rest due to the aforementioned spell slots. | |||

*2 levels of Wizard give you access to either the Abjuration or Divination subclass. Alternatively, you can take Evocation and use Cunning Action: Hide multiple time throughout a fight to nuke groups of enemies. | '''2. 8 Rogue + 1-4 Wizard + 0-3 Bard / 10 Rogue + 2 Wizard / 9 Rogue + 1-2 Wizard + 1-2 Fighter:''' This is my attempt to make an Arcane Trickster that actually made sense. I made this. Is it good? I have no idea. 9 Rogue gives you '''Magical Ambush,''' which feels like the only reason you would take '''Arcane Trickster''' in the first place. | ||
