before i shell out the G's or buy a retcon token, was curious how well would great weapons and arcane mix. Eldritch Knights are basically heavily armed and armored warriors with skill and knowledge in the arcane.

    There's a variety of ways to mix the attacks from the 2 sets. Here's one example:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform

    Super Stats
    Level 6: Intelligence (Primary)
    Level 10: Dexterity (Secondary)
    Level 15: Constitution (Secondary)

    Talents
    Level 1: The Glacier (Con: 10, End: 10, Dex: 8, Int: 10)
    Level 6: Covert Ops Training (Str: 3, Dex: 3, Con: 3, Int: 3)
    Level 9: Acrobat (Dex: 5, Con: 5)
    Level 12: Coordinated (Dex: 5, Int: 5)
    Level 15: Healthy Mind (Con: 5, Int: 5)
    Level 18: Boundless Reserves (Con: 5, End: 5)
    Level 21: Accurate (Dex: 5, End: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Eldritch Bolts
    Level 1: Cleave (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 6: Aura of Primal Majesty (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 8: Form of the Tempest
    Level 11: Conviction (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 14: Molecular Self-Assembly
    Level 17: Decimate
    Level 20: Pillar of Poz (Rank 2, Dizzying Impact)
    Level 23: Arc of Ruin (Rank 2, No Quarter)
    Level 26: Hex of Suffering (Rune of Lethargy, Rune of Terror)
    Level 29: Resurgence (Rank 2)
    Level 32: Eldritch Shield (Rank 2)
    Level 35: Ego Surge (Rank 2, Nimble Mind)
    Level 38: Rebirth
    Adv. Points: 32/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6:
    Level 35:

    Specializations
    Intelligence: Preparation (2/2)
    Intelligence: Enlightened (3/3)
    Intelligence: Detect Vulnerability (3/3)
    Intelligence: Expertise (2/2)
    Warden: Fortified Gear (2/3)
    Warden: Slaughter (3/3)
    Warden: Ruthless (2/2)
    Warden: The Best Defense (3/3)
    Overseer: Administer (3/3)
    Overseer: Ruthless (2/2)
    Overseer: Impact (2/2)
    Overseer: Trapped (3/3)
    Mastery: Warden Mastery (1/1)

    Should have good debuff potential w/ Arc's debuff, Hexed, Disorient, Fear, Root + Trapped, and Honor. For more melee dps, it can use the melee dps role and WotW, Unstoppable, NW, or Quarry as the passive (and/or w/ Dex PSS). Gears mostly for Dex and Con here, w/ some Int for MSA.

    Define what you intend for the arcana to do. Is it to buff yourself, debuff targets, deal damage by itself, etc. or all of the above? If there is an elemental effect that you want, by all means, mention that, too. That helps nail down the specific "build" you have in mind.

    Flows build he gave is pretty good. might swap rebirth for a ranged magical attack like star barrage.

    Yeah if you want a ranged 100ft attack in there then go ahead. I put MSA as the EU, but Conjuring could also prob work as long as you keep Pillar and/or Hex up somewhere near (and either EU scales w/ Int).
