@benbaxter. tnx

If i will go bardlock.. I think i will be going 1 bard/ 1 lock/ 5 bard/ 2 lock/ 2 bard. So 3 lock. Then respec at 12. 2 lock 10 bard to get magical secrets. I think i will have high dex anyway. Seems like the best overall stat. 3 for better lock spellslots doesnt seem worth it over magical secrets.

I dont like pally for the theme. Considered 2/3fighter. Seems really good. I find lock/ranger way more interesting/fitting. Still trying to make up my mind between those.

Wyl: i really like your palock idea.Think oathbreaker may fit him? But will it work with lorebard+lock? Was leaning towards 6lorebard/3lock. Then all bard or lock. Maybe 3rogue.

Lea: Yeah agree. Eldritch knight arcane trickster seems the way for me.
