[QUOTE="FormerlyHemlock, post: 6817195, member: 6787650"] I did something like this. Currently at Lore Bard 9/Warlock 2. That game is kind of stalled for now (too busy). I took warlock levels first, since I wanted Wisdom save proficiency. (Lack of longsword/shortsword/hand crossbow/rapier proficiency doesn't matter to me, nor the loss of two musical instrument proficiencies.) My goal was to be the party healer (the un-cleric) and Wisdom saves prevent action denial so I thought that was important. The character is a ton of fun and was the primary damage dealer at low levels. Really comes into his own once you hit 8th level and get Magical Secrets (I took Conjure Animals and Aura of Vitality). Primary weakness is that he has the lowest AC in the party; mitigated through Stealth expertise, Expeditious Retreat, and just generally keeping off the front line. [/QUOTE]
