Last of all, we’ll open ourselves up to the wonderful arsenal of wands, staves, tomes, and scrolls available to mages. In addition, we want to really throw the heat down with our powerful magics both in NOVA bursts and over the long-term by slugging our way through big encounters. Why? Because we want to be able to pick up such varied weapons as rapiers, scimitars, daggers, shortswords, longbows, crossbows, shortbows and employ each decisively. Unlike many combat specializations (our Dexadin was an example of a pretty specialized focus on mobile melee combat), we’re going to go wide with this build. More specifically - we want to be both a dangerous threat in melee combat and in slinging down various spells for devastating effect. And in this Classic build we’ll chiefly be looking for some serious versatility. We’re going to simply call our third Gish Optimized build the Classic (or Classic Fighter-Mage). For our second post, we took a deep dive into the spank and flank Hexblade-Fighter or Chex-Fighter. In this build, we give homage to that fantastic origin.įor our first Gish Optimized post, we explored a stab and smite style Dexadin. It represented the prototype for the Gish. The Basic D&D Elf, in turn, mixed classic sword and sorcery.

Early fantasy anime series like Record of the Lodoss War featured the Fighter-Mage prominently in Deedlit who was modeled after a Basic Dungeons and Dragons Elf. It’s well represented in fiction and game-related anime. This classic combo has seen many iterations over the years. Crazy, right? In fact, my first AD&D character was, you guessed it, a Fighter-Mage. I’ve been playing Fighter-Mage types of various sorts for the better part of 41 years. Now this particular build is one that’s near and dear to my heart. Image source: Record of the Lodoss War Fandom. Elves, in turn, were the proto-typical Fighter-Mages in Dungeons and Dragons. Deedlit from Record of the Lodoss War was modeled after the Basic Dungeons and Dragons Elf. We’ll harken to the time of D&D’s origins in the 1970s and 80s as we re-create that good, old Fighter-Mage from Basic and Advanced Dungeons & Dragons using the D&D 5e rules set. Guess what time it is? Yes!! It’s Dungeons and Dragons character building time! In this third episode of the Gish Optimized series we’re going to jump into the way-back machine.
