Apparently booming blade qualifies for War Magic and Extra Attack so an EK can use it 4 times in a row at level 11

Reposted from Lastabond (3/3 Slots filled)

It can fall off compared to a fighter with extra attack. But situationally better and all that jazz.

Really? You can’t use Booming Blade as part of extra attack in regular 5e.

What about Green Flame Blade? In 5E its use is supposed to be used the same way booming blade is but with a different effect.

if you're playing in tactitian and bellow go 5 hexblade lock, 5 champion fighter 2 paladin, with action surge you can spam that sucker 6 times in a row with 3th lvl smites while criting on an 18 up with no equipment

Booming Blade is one of the main reasons people would play Eldritch Knight in the tabletop (along with easy access to some shield spells). Not having it in BG3 at launch was kind of crippling, so I'm glad it's finally coming back.

As others have pointed out though it's definitely not supposed to stack with Extra Attack by RAW; it wouldn't be the first time BG3 has changed how some things work, but that is an odd one if it's even better here

This is hilarious

I just used my EK to throw hammers for an entire run and it was hilarious

tolvan.bsky.social•9 hours ago

oh that's really not intended, war magic yes but it absolutely shouldn't work with extra attack

Well damn, if that’s how they decided to code it that’s super good.
