Eldritch Knight is my GO-TO class for most of my Baldur's Gate 3 playthroughs. It's just so much freaking fun to misty step into the middle of a fight and just start wailing on the enemies! I usually end up re-classing Shadowheart, Lae'zel and Karlach into Eldritch Knight as well, just for even MORE FUN!!!! What an AWESOME song for my favorite class!
I have a couple issues with this one. After the metal that was the main Fighter and the Battle master, this seems very tame in comparison. There's a few lines that get me, like, "My weapon bound, my soul's command, it answers me with a fiery brand" No? It just gets summoned to you, no fire involved. "The arcane whispers, my oath is spoken" What oath? This isn't a Paladin. "I summon the storm with a battlecry" Nah, the EK summons buffs, Shield(s), and enough reaction spells that the GM is thankful he's a Fighter and the monsters can beat him up without too much of a risk of death. All in all, this seems like someone who kinda knows about Eldritch Knight but never played one, or with one, made a song about it, and once again it's obvious that the Bladesinger got more love.
You do know flavor and roleplaying are free, right? Knights have been a theme of fantasy for hundreds of years. Paladins don't own the monopoly on swearing an oath. Knights have been swearing oaths to serve a lord for hundreds of years. Why would the Eldritch Knight be any different? It would be like saying only barbarians are allowed to be angry and have anger issues. It's just silly. Maybe Bardstrike likes to flavor their bonded weapon appearing in a fiery brand. The mechanics say you summon a weapon. That's it. How the weapon is summoned is up to the player and the DM.

⚔The blade can be as lethal as the spell, but stronger still is the one who wields both 🔥
Absolute banger!!
fantastic song! one of the best-great voice and lyrics and artwork. continued success...
My very first and normally go to class is the Hexblade, but this song makes a very convincing argument!
Woooo!!! A sword and magic, what could be better?!
Just discovered this channel with spell and blade along with blood of dragons have to be my favorites, there well done.
Steel is good. Steel that catches flame on command is better.
Looks like my CoS Eldritch Knight gets his anthem at last indeed.
Any word if well get ourselves a Watcher Paladin’s Anthem?
Thumbs up
A beautiful work of art, as expected! Think you could give the Fathomless Warlock a spin sometime?
Give the living nightmare subclass a shot, I need a song for it
do one on drizzt
The drow ranger shall have his anthem
