Cool. Good to hear you are using at trident. I was definitely thinking about scenarios in which I might create a trident pact weapon to throw and take down a flying opponent and then switch Pact weapon to Greatsword or Halberd. Just sample building a Warlock with a 1-level starting dip in...

Yes, thankfully my Son's teacher / DM for his club shared the app with his club (campaign) and he had licenses for most content. Just not the new Artificer in EFA. In the end they did not use DNDBeyond because it would not work on the Chromebooks at school (security / network issues) and not...

For sure. Yeah, he is just starting out and is still learning what the different weapons are. He has an anti-dragon thing in his origin story (he is Dragonborn) so big weapons of some type - either greatsword/greataxe or polearms - make sense (and his Warlock cannot use a shield). He does not...

Thanks, figured out how to add it to the reactive attack as well.

Do you think you can get a Cleave attack on both your Attack Action or Bonus Action AND on a Reaction / Opportunity Attack? Reactions / Opportunity Attacks happen during an enemies turn (i.e., do not happen on your turn) or is everything you do in a round considered "per turn"?

FWIW (Edit) - DPRCalc does seem to apply your proficiency bonus to the Cleave attack (I misread this before and still not sure of where all the modifier numbers are coming from). Thanks to comments below I was able to find out how to add the Cleave attack to the reactive strike as well. Edit 2...

Might need to have an Artificer Battle Smith in the party to get custom magical weapons ; I am hoping that my son experiments a bit and gets a feeling for the benefits of push, vex, cleave, slow, etc... It does make it difficult to pick feats...

Yes, I assumed that getting a magical weapon would be a big driver for what you make into your Pact weapon - makes it a little difficult to select feats...

Yes, that is likely true (although I was not sure if there might be other reasons to switch).

My son just started playing his Warlock and I was hoping to get some perspectives from more experienced players. How often you all switch out and use different weapons - like conjuring a thrown weapon if you need range, using a halberd for combat against multiple creatures in an open area...

Cool - appreciate all the thought and effort that was put into this. I can absolutely imagine how boring it might get for most of the players if you are just conveying to one of them what the familiar is seeing as it navigates a bunch of stuff. I also definitely realize how things like Invisible...

Do DM's often simply reclassify rarities for magical items? At least as it pertains to Artificer Replicate Magic Item and for costs/time for crafting...? I am just getting back into this so not sure what else it would affect but it seems like there is only a handful of items that will really...

Understood. Just unfortunate that all the other characters are free to create but the Artificer winds up costing $20 since it comes from EFA.

I can appreciate that. Could also say that the poison becomes inert if the familiar goes into the pocket dimension or is resummoned. That might create some violent unhappy customers that bought the poison only to find it did not work a week later or something. Might be another way to nerf it.

Ah, ok good point...
