The Power of Warlocks: A Guide to Early Game Dominance

🔥Warlocks are well-designed and versatile, excelling in various aspects of combat.

😈Warlocks have access to powerful spells, crowd control abilities, and synergies with gear.

💥Eldritch Blast is a reliable and damaging spell, serving as the cornerstone of a warlock's arsenal.

🌑Darkness combined with Devil's Sight can create a devastating combo for warlocks, providing advantage and safety in combat.

🔒Repelling Blast and Devil's Sight offer additional control and repositioning options for warlocks, allowing for tactical advantages.

Which pact should I choose as a warlock?

—For a blaster warlock, Pact of the Chain is recommended for its summon abilities that can provide utility and additional combat options.

How should I allocate my ability scores for a warlock?

—Focus on Charisma as your main ability score for increased spell damage. Constitution is important for better concentration and HP. Dexterity can improve your initiative and armor class. Intelligence and Strength are less relevant for warlocks.

Should I take Repelling Blast or Agonizing Blast as an invocation at level 2?

—While Agonizing Blast can increase your Eldritch Blast damage, Repelling Blast offers more control and repositioning options, making it more versatile and valuable in combat.

How can I make the most of Darkness and Devil's Sight combo?

—Cast Darkness, and as a warlock, use Devil's Sight to see and attack enemies within the darkness. This allows you to safely dish out damage while enemies are blinded and unable to target you.

Should I choose Hex or Armor of Agathis as my level 2 spell?

—If you prefer additional damage output, choose Hex to amplify your spells, especially Eldritch Blast. If you want a defensive and offensive spell, Armor of Agathis provides temporary hit points and deals damage to enemies when they hit you.
