@mikemearls quick question, how would an eldritch knight work with sword and shield?

This is actually a fairly thorny question. IMC, I just let it ride – swap weapon and focus as part of casting. https://t.co/oLJpkq9hMQ

@TrainerJodie @kam2112 technically, the War Caster Feat would make that work fine. I kind of though that was what the feat was for? that's 1 of few issues. tracking what stuff is in which hand was a bigger issue for people than the rules anticipated
