Bladesong & Versatile Weapons

[Pan Darius Cassandra]

Bladesong:

Bladesong
Starting at 2nd level, you can invoke an elven magic called the Bladesong, provided that you aren't wearing medium or heavy armor or using a shield. It graces you with supernatural speed, agility, and focus.

You can use a bonus action to start the Bladesong, which lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you are incapacitated, if you don medium or heavy armor or a shield, or if you use two hands to make an attack with a weapon. You can also dismiss the Bladesong at any time (no action required).

While your Bladesong is active, you gain the following benefits:

You gain a bonus to your AC equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1)

Your walking speed increases by 10 feet.

You have advantage on Dexterity (Acrobatics) checks.

You gain a bonus to any Constitution saving throw you make to maintain your concentration on a spell. The bonus equals your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1).

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to toggle one-handed use of versatile weapons.

Larian could handle this a couple of ways:

• Add a toggle for versatile weapons.

• Ignore the two-handed rule for Bladesong (which would also allow you to use it with great weapons, unless they specifically disallow heavy weapons).

• When Bladesong is activated and you are wielding a versatile weapon it automatically switches you to one-handed.

Lets be honest, the best weapon for bladesinging was always RAPIER. It was always the best choice to use DEX as one of your mains atributes for bladesinger wizard. And rapier is the best finese martial weapon there is.

Not rly relevant.

However, there are two Finesse longswords in BG3.
