Does anyone have smth in mind for Laezel beyond her initial class? I am looking for some help before starting TDU playthrough in September. I am willing to keep her Ability scores and a single level in fighter unchanged, because I always play with an added restriction and do not respec via Withers. Was thinking about 1 fighter / 11 ranger but it feels like she needs more than 2 feats to become a half decent half caster.
If you don't mind being shackled to Headband of Intellect, then 6 Eldritch Knight/6 Wizard can work.
6 EK for the extra attack, bonus feat and a bit of spell slot progress. 6 Wizard for extra spell slots, more spells and some subclass bonuses. Abjuration School can work well for continuing the Fighter style "Front line tank" and can be seriously strong (Heavy Armour + Heavy Armour Mastery + Arcane Ward = Good luck taking damage at all, ever. Heck toss on Warding Bond and be practically invulnerable)
Though you can go something like Divination for more support via Portent too.
While all this still is thematic, given Githyanki do like to mix martial and magic combat.
