Arcane Trickster: whats the best class/race combo?

Publish date: 2024-06-25
Well, you could hose yourself if you picked an opposition school(s) that didn't let you cast mage hand or fulfill any of the other prerequisites for Arcane Trickster but other than that, illusionists are wizards so of course you can qualify as an illusionist. (Specialist wizards are IMNSHO usually better than generalists for any purpose because you can get around a school restriction (as long as you aren't foolish enough to pick Transmutation or Abjuration as opposed schools) and the extra spell at each level is a real boost to your casting ability.)

I was originally going to go with Halfling Rogue/Wizard, but now the idea of a Gnome Illusionist/Rogue has been sprung.

Does this work, can I reach all the requirements being an Illusionist instead of a Wizard?

Thanks.
