Chilling touch counters healing and regen which is effectively extra damage against many threatening foes at levels that really matter.Firebolt does basically the same damage but only requires one to- hit which let's it get a bit better use out of temporary advantages like say from Guiding Bolt.So, where is the proof that EB **alone** is the best damaging cantrip.I think what you may have actually meant was The Warlock class features make EB better than other cantrips for the Warlock. That's kind of like saying "the Rogue sneak attack makes finesse and ranged weapons better than others."The effectiveness boosts using EB for Warlocks are every bit as much a design feature for that class as sneak boosting finesse is for Rogues. Are you gonna change how sneak works because your rogue doesn't go for greataxe? If your Warlock is bored with the choices he made, that's a sign they may have chosen poorly or that the challenges are a bit too much of the same old same old.</blockquote>
