I was wondering if anyone had any experience playing a higher level warlock ... say mid teens or higher. It seems to me they really start to fall behind the other core classes at that level.
Their damage progression is just slow, which seems okay at the lower levels, but starts to look pretty bad at the higher ones when the magic types are throwing around hugely deadly spells and have many more defensive and utility spells available, and fighter types are doing much more damage in melee, and even the rogue's sneak attack does as much damage as the eldritch blast, which has a chance of being used multiple times in a round.
All of the stronger incantations require saving throws, but aren't that high level and can't be heightened, and at those levels the saves start to catch up to the DC's pretty fast.
But this is all conjecture right now since I haven't seen them in action. Does anyone who played a high level warlock have any comments or suggestions about it?
