[QUOTE="Thurmas, post: 7302618, member: 6866167"] It seems to me the easiest fix would be a minor change just to hex blade. People seem to dislike hexblade because it works just as well with EB. So, make it only work with weapon attacks. Until the curse ends, you gain the following benefits: You gain a bonus to weapon attack damage rolls against the cursed target. The bonus equals your proficiency bonus. Any weapon attack roll you make against the cursed target is a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20 on the d20. If the cursed target dies, you regain hit points equal to your warlock level + your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1 hit point). Literally adding those two words seems to fix most complaints. Sure, it is still good for any Warlock, but it's not the overwhelming damage boost to EB spam it was before. Just an armor boost, the occasional temp hitpoints and a sub par extended spell list. Seems about even with the other patrons. But it still shines for someone that is melee focused. [/QUOTE]
