Assuming the "blade-trips" Booming Blade and Green-Flame Blade are allowed from O5E's Tasha book:
Can a character with the Bladechanter synergy feat utilize both the cantrip (which requires a weapon attack) and the feat's reaction-spell feature?
I consulted the rules for casting multiple spells in a round (AG 493), and the answer seems like a grey area to me, as it also does in O5E.
Essentially, on a hit with a weapon, the feat allows the casting of a (slotted) spell with a casting time of 1 action, but the character is actually using their reaction.
Should the slotted spell (which in my head I refer to as a "spell-smite") be treated as a 1-action spell, which would prevent it from being cast on the same turn as the cantrip (which also has a 1 action casting time)?
Or should the "spell-smite" be allowed in conjunction with the cantrip, as the character is really using their reaction?
