[QUOTE="WanderingMystic, post: 8954213, member: 69157"] To me they are fairly balanced against each other but some of them might be used more often. 1: Eldritch Disturbance - Good damage that can be used at range or melee, wis save is better than attacking ac against most warrior type creatures. Good a second option for someone who already has either Eldritch Ray or a eldritch Scythe. 2: Eldritch Ray - Best option is you are nothing but a ranged caster, it is also the most boring option but probably most people's first pick. 3: Eldritch Scythe - Ok so this one is weird best melee option and better than being a blade pack for a melee warlock option. The extra damage to someone else in 5ft really makes this a must take if you think you will be in the thick of it. 4: Eldritch Whip - Personally this is my favorite while it is only a d6 it means that at 5th level you are getting 5-8 temp hp that first round so extra survivability. This is a better option for warlocks who want to do melee damage but who knows that they will be mainly fighting one on one. It is a great second pick for anyone since the ability to gain some temp hp is well worth the damage trade off. For me if I was building a tomb or chain warlock disturbance would probably be my first pick and whip my second. A little less damage but you are guaranteed to do at least half damage so no missing.
