[QUOTE="Blue, post: 7189596, member: 20564"] The frontline melee / healer roll is really not well served by the warlock. You luckily have ability scores in your important abilities well above what point buy could give you, so you can afford to go for feats. With your patron and feat you will be able to give some healing. As a side note the bard can also make a reasonable off-healer - I'd ask them to pick up some spells as well. Both at least a bit of healing to get you back up if you fall, and spells not on your list that are either on the bard list or can be picked up with magical secrets like revivify. It sound like you're looking for the higher level celestial features, which are pretty sweet. If that's wrong, paladin could give you more front-liner capability and will also add to healing, though for an action instead of a bonus action so it's not nearly as useful in-combat. Though it can also cure poison or disease. But really, staying on path of a celestial warlock can give you a good punch, some battlefield control (useful for pushing foes together for the bard to hit more targets with Hypnotic Pattern and the like) as well as supporting your party with temp HPs and healing. Don't spread yourself too thin. [/QUOTE]
