Zero interest in a Drunken Monk. Sounds dumb. But each to his own.

You don't want to be Jackie Chan?

I like the idea of Glamour bard but the actual subclass bonuses don't look as exciting.

I REALLY like being swashbucklers though so maybe I'll do that

Lol. No. From someone who use to drink too much when I was young and stupid, I know that someone who is drunk can not perform like he is doing in the video or anything else well.

There is a reason we have laws against drunken driving and public intoxication.

But I also understand this is a video game based on fantasy. So if the player wants to role play a drunken Monk, than go for it. Have fun.

All of them in due time.
But starting with Hexblade Warlock.

its based on a real fighting style actually called Zuì Quán

Ever since it was changed so all skillchecks is done by the player character, ive had a real bad time not picking a charisma user for player character. Strongly leaning to hexblade. Bladesingers is looking strong....but. So not a face char.

And College of 'Bows' (Swords) is a really powerful setup for ranged damage.

You can actually get by a lot of potential charisma checks as an wizard with detect thoughts. Not all of them, but enough I basically passed every dialogue situation with a 12 CHA Gale.

Plus it's a fun alternative option if you haven't seen the detect thoughts dialogue.

I made Astarion a Rogue 3 /Eldritch Knight 3 so far but I am considering adding a third class as Bladesinger to test how to the Combo works...

Dark Urge. Sorc. As always.

Would be bad, too much overlap in ability.

Yeah, maybe better to rebuild him as Rogue 3 / Bladesinger 3

He will lose action surge and Second Wind but get more spells and Bladesinging bonus, could be fun !

Another option for Bladesinger would be Gale as pure Bladesinger instead of Evocator, but I don't feel it suits his personality.

You might find this build guide for Bladesingers of interest. It goes really indepth. The primary setup is 10 Bladesinger/2 Oath of Crown.

The fighting style *imitates* being drunk. Actually being drunk is not part of the style.
