Does anyone here see any advantage/perk of being a ranged echo knight? For multiclassing purpose. It doesn't seem as strong as other builds for ranged combat (battle master) but I LOVE the flavor/style. Is there a good way to make use of a projection of yourself in ranged combat, considering the echo itself is not a creature and unleash incarnation deals MELEE damage?
No point. The EK was built for melee control of the battlefield.
I’ll grant that incidentally and situationally, it’s not a terrible idea to send your echo up 30’ in the air to take pot shot with a longbow or heavy crossbow- but it’s a poor regular use of the echo.
My $0.02. See the main EK thread for further deets.
