I'm trying to build a wizard character using point buy, and I am unsure of which decisions to make. What are the benefits and drawbacks of these options, or do you have other suggestions?
- I want a familiar, and the warlock familiar looks awesome: How much more worth it is a warlock familiar than a wizard familiar?
- What is the value of Eldritch Blast + Agonizing Blast?
- How significant would getting shield proficiency be?
Being a wizard sounds fun, but very squishy. I like the idea of getting up to three levels of warlock, but that would really slow down a wizard build. Also, I like the idea of picking up a level of fighter or cleric to gain armor and shields, but again, that would slow things down. Doing all of the above would block 9th level spells, which seems foolish.
Some builds I've wondered about:
Wr3/Wz17
Fi1 or Cl1/Wz19
Wr2/Wz 18
Fi1/Wr2/Wz17
Sr1/Cl1/Wz18
Ro1/Sr1/Wz18
Wz20
What do you think?
