Note: Clerics and Paladins can already use a weapon with a holy symbol as a focus, and some other characters gain a feature equivalent to this one: Warlocks with a Pact of the Warrior, Mystic Trickster Rogues, and Spellsword Fighters.

 

• You can use any weapon you are proficient with as a spellcasting focus. 

• You can perform the somatic components of spells even if you are holding weapons and/or a shield in both your hands.
