The added low level spell selection seems appealing especially for valor and swords to get a fighting style, action surge, shield and absorb elements.
As a sword bard 6 / fighter 2.
My question is would it be better to take a level in battle master and a level of sorcerer to still get all those extra spells plus maneuvers or one level of eldritch knight and back to bard.
With bard? I haven't seen it played but it looks ok to me. I can see it being good as a gish because it provides very similar benefits to multiclassing with hexblade. (Medium armor, martial proficiencies, shield spell) while also providing another fighting style, action surge and second wind.
Would this build preclude you from getting the ASI boost at "level 19"? Of course I've never made it to level 19 so the question is moot. Taking a single dip into another class and giving up the level 20 perk is no big deal to me.

Has anyone tried this multiclass with a bard?
