Not only does EK get plenty of goodies but also focuses them in a singular direction. This is the class' biggest strength. Spellcasting should serve this aspect, not deter from it. The facts that Fighter is heavily Multi Ability Dependent to being with (and thus good spell DC is the result of specific circumstances) and that you only get access to level 1-2 spells both point to this direction. Because when you don't have to worry about being able to land spells? If you're casting them on yourselves or allies. And what kind of spells EK benefits the most from? Defensive and/or self-buffing ones. Now you can have an EK with a high-ish INT but that means you have to venture into the glass canon territory. (Or get the 17 INT Circlet from Lump - but that means your head slot is occupied for the rest of the game!) Fortunately, the best solution for survivability is the said spells. Do you see where this is going?
