The newest Class Act is up, and it has Swordmage goodness.

A swordmage wields an arsenal of elemental attacks. Brandishing a blade infused with arcane energy, a swordmage is a force to be reckoned with. A character can unleash an inferno upon enemies one round and launch a frosty assault the next. Although this gamut of powers can be a boon when faced with enemies resistant to a particular element, it also hinders one's ability to specialize with a particular element. If, for example, a player wanted to fashion a swordmage as a pyromancer, he or she would find no choices conducive to this path at 3rd, 5th, or 9th levels. This article provides elemental-based powers across the Heroic tier to fill in the gaps and offers a path for feats and attack powers to maximize one's elemental potential.


Since one of my character concepts is a genasi swordmage, this works out nicely.

I'm feeling a lot of love for this class.
