Warlock Help

[coolscribe]

I am looking for a Warlock feat that allows them to use Eldritch blast as a melee attack to avoid getting Opp Attacks (Like the Sorcerers "sorcerous blade channeling"). I am sure I have seen it somewhere but I can't find it now....

It's a Shadar-Kai racial feat. This pre-requisite was apparantly always intended (the feat appearing in a Shadar-Kai related article), but was not always implemented in the Character Builder and Compendium. It might also not have been written as such in the original article.

Thank you, shall check that out. Knew I saw it somewhere.....

It's called "Reaper's Touch" and you can find it in the Dragon Annual. As Mustrum Ridcully said, it's Shadar-kai only.

The other option is to trade out Eldritch Blast for Eldritch Strike, which lets you make basic attacks (but then you don't have blast as a ranged attack).

Actually I find the best way to avoid the opportunity attacks and get your prime shot bonuses (as well as possibly flank) at the same time, is to wear Shadowdance Armor.

And if you are Human, could you not have Eldrich Strike and Eldrich Blast both?

With the new feat in PHB3 that gives unarmored characters +2 to AC, you could try out the Shimmering (I think) cloth armor that doesn't provoke . . .right? Man, I should start taking my books to work if I'm gonna post from here.

You got it all correct.
