Was the Warlock nerfed from the 3 attacks in UA?

What's the description for Tiefling?

That's been answered in other threads. The third attack got broken out into a second Invocation, but Lifedrinker got nerfed to once per turn.

Thanks, I had missed that.

Not happy about that at all, but it is what it is.

Does exhaustion also penalizes saves DC or just d20 tests?

D20 tests are ability checks, attack rolls and saving throws.

EDIT: I misread, it doesn't penalise the save DCs of your spells or abilities.

There's a lot of small nerfs to Bladelock, compared to the UA builds. Blade Pact no longer enables Mastery traits. The third attack costs yet another invocation. Lifedrinker is limited to once per turn. There's no easy and economical way to get Medium Armor or Shields.

It's enough that the next time I want to play a gish, I'm almost certainly going to go with Eldritch Knight Fighter instead. I'm not saying that Bladelock is dead, but it's been narrowed down considerably into something I personally am less interested in playing.

Well, if ya all ever play at a table I DM, yes we can use the UA version of Pact of The Blade.

Is Faerie Fire still a concentration spell?
