Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tessarael" data-source="post: 9514905" data-attributes="member: 12909">Another suggested Eldritch invocation to boost your Pact of the Chain familiar:Devil’s bargain: You can lower your maximum HP to correspondingly increase those of your familiar, to a maximum of 2 HP per spellcaster level. For every 9 HP, your familiar gains +1 to proficient skill rolls and +1 to saving throws. For every 12 HP, your familiar gains +1 AC.Your maximum HP returns to normal, if your familiar is reduced to 0 HP and disappears, you dismiss it forever (not just temporarily), you otherwise lose your familiar, or if you recast Find Familiar.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The math here is aimed at the familiar getting +4 to proficient skill rolls and saving throws, i.e., +6 in total to skill rolls with the initial +2 as a creature of CR < 5, by spellcaster level 18.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For example, a level 9 Warlock can reduce her max HP by 18 from 75 to 57. Correspondingly, her imp familiar's max HP increases from 14 to 32, with +1 AC, +2 to saves, and +2 to proficient skill rolls.</li> </ul></blockquote>
