Because EB + Agonizing blast does so much damage compared to any other cantrip, it is actually competitive with melee options at low to mid armor classes even with disadvantage. The break-even point is whatever Armor Class gives a chance to hit equal to the ratio of the melee cantrip damage to...

I know I sort of mentioned this before, but beginning to think that Warcaster is semi-mandatory for any blaster-lock who carries a shield (e.g. Hexblade, Moderately Armored, Multiclass), at least in any campaign with magic items. Rod of the Pact Keeper, Wand of the War Mage, Staff of Power/Magi...

I can’t imagine there is a single cleric out there that remembers to stow their weapon to cast a V,S spell, so that piece of sage advice has always struck me as really really silly, but it’s the official ruling. Does boost Warcaster as a feat for hexblades though, as it effectively enables the...

I'm kind of curious as to the actual benefit of using a shield with a Eldritch Blast based warlock (Hexblade or otherwise). Early on when you have limited competition for your free hand it would appear useful, but if you pickup any of the fun spell attack/damage enhancers (i.e. most commonly...

An arcane focus is a substitute for a material component which in of itself is one of possibly three parts to casting a spell. You don't hit someone with your arcane focus when you cast a spell anymore than you hit someone with powdered rhubarb and an adders stomach when you cast Melf's Acid...

FYI missing Maddening Darkness in the 8th level Mystic Arcanum slot.

Ah pity. That light pole arm feat you describe would indeed be perfect for a blade pact warlock :-)

Just curious, what staff feat are you referring to? There is a spear feat in a recent UA but not seeing any staff feats

5 edition does have some weirdness about clerics spell casting and shields: 1. For a (V,S,M) or (V,M) spell the shield cleric can cast without changing what they hold in their hands. The two hander cleric has to draw their focus (assuming M with no listed gp cost), but can hold their weapon in...
