The Vestige Pact Warlock can be found <a href="http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/4ex/20090323" target="_blank">here</a>, so I'm not going to go into much more detail on that.There are new powers for every pact so far, including Dark, at essentially every level. There are some dual-pact powers, which are cool. If you're wondering, here's an example: <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Horrifying Hatching, a level 9 daily power. 1d8+Charisma damage on a hit; on the Effect line, the target takes 10 ongoing poison damage (save ends). Whenever it takes this damage, you can slide the target 1 square. You can spend a minor action to end the ongoing damage and (if Fey) slide the enemy 3 squares, or (if Dark) deal 2d10+Int more poison damage.</li> </ul>There are two vestiges for every level, including the level 1 daily slot. Solis (level 15) is pretty neat:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> His pact boon deafens every enemy within 3 squares of you and makes them all grant CA until your next turn ends.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">His Eyes of the Vestige augment: if the target attacks any of your allies on his next turn, he takes Con-mod fire and thunder damage.</li> </ul>That's pretty tough--and there's an epic-level feat that lets you add any one vestige you have to your primary vestige list, along with Zutwa and King Elidyr. I'm noticing some wonderfully clever utility powers, too:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Devil's Trade (E-2) lets you automatically succeed on a saving throw, but gives you vulnerable 5 to all damage until your next turn ends;</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Fey Bargain (E-2) gives you a +2 bonus to your next attack roll, but you automatically fail your next save;</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">... and Destiny Inversion (E-10)cuts an attack's damage in half, but the remaining sum is instead dealt to you as ongoing damage.</li> </ul>That all might not be terribly powerful, but it's wicked cool.</blockquote>
