For a Lightning charge Spellcaster , I advocate a human or half - pixy Wizard because they get the Civil Militia trait and can wield Shields .
Since this soma shoot for to deal most of its damage through Cantrips , I chose anEvocation Wizard . ThePotent Cantripfeature makes enemies take one-half of the damage against your Cantrips that require Saving Throws , andEmpowered Evocationadds your Intelligence modifier to the harm dealt with Evocation Cantrips and Spells .
AConjuration Wizardis also a good choice since you could castCreate Waterwithout pass a spell slot . That creates a aerofoil you could electrify and fend on to arrive at Lightning Charges .
