I think the duskblade myself.
Ftr 7/Mu 11/ Elf from 1e. :)
I've never played a Duskblade but I thought the Hexblade was a lot of fun.
Multiclass Swashbuckler/Sorcerer, or maybe the Battle Sorcerer from UnA with the Battle Caster feat and mithral full plate.

What's the crunch to fluff ratio?
I hate that word fluff. Please don't use it in my thread.
Says the elegant gish....did you post a preferred term?
Gishes are OK. I prefer frumbaggy guzzworglers though.
I find them to be more snugglykins puffybaggers than your average run of the mill piggly gulpers.
Brump.

It comes in strawberry too!!!!!! Hold on to your crust, Nilla Waffers!
You are soooooo full of fail.

Sword'n'board type sumptness?
Failure never tasted so flnffy...
Flnffy. that'll work. It's a good woody word.

Abjurant Champion, in all its broken glory.
d10 HD, full BAB, full spellcasting, automatic quickened spells, automatic extended spells, improved caster level, improved AC, and a bunch of other abilities besides.
And the prerequisites are easier than the ones for Eldritch Knight.
About the only thing they don't get is full clerical turning and sneak attack progression. Or anchovies.

I'll make a joke about something I just said again!

You're still bitter about the "one anchovy per slice" Papa John's fiasco, aren't you? ;)
Oh, yeah, I almost forgot.
The best "gish" class is the one who can recite all of the lyrics from the Smashing Pumpkins album of the same name.
Sorry, every time I hear the term "gish", I think of that album or Lilian...
I really prefer the duskblade. I know the flavour text says 'elves' but all the doom and gloom spells, it really says 'githyanki'.
I have a watered-down gith race in my homebrew campaign world, and their favoured classes are monk or duskblade ...

Hey HD, I'd already called a soundtrack for this thread...
personally I hate gish classes, the hexblade and spellthiefs were the only ones I liked and that was because they felt more like the paladin and ranger rather than a gish, i.e. their own class with thier own unique abilities, that just got some weaker versions of other class abilities tacked on.
Unless you consider the paladin a Gish, in that case, the paladin is my favorite Gish.

Yep. What did you expect from a Greenman?
It's my thread, and I don't even know what that is. So I ain't havin it for the soundtrack. It might be too tinny for all I know.
Norwegian Wood, by definition, is not tinny.
Now let's yammer on about chaotic neutral, since I'm the only one who truly understands it.

You need to be up more on your Norse Mythology flnff.
This has been demonstrated. [Takes up position of auditor.]
EDIT: Wouldn't that be irony, not tinny?

Auditor. Audit...audi*t*errrrr...no, too tinny.

There is that CA feat you can take to get a familiar as long as you are a spellcaster.
So you can get an anchovi.*

Best core 'gish,' straight Cleric or Druid.
For worst core 'gish' I'd say, Bard.
