Message: <blockquote data-quote="FormerlyHemlock" data-source="post: 6915097" data-attributes="member: 6787650">Starting as a Warlock gets you Wisdom + Charisma save proficiency; Bard gets you Dexterity + Charisma, and additional weapon proficiencies (hand crossbows, longswords, rapiers, shortswords). Are you more afraid of Fireballs or Dominate Person? Are you planning to gish it up any with rapiers? (Probably not.) Do you think of your bard as more of a spellcaster or a warrior?When I played a Bardlock I started with Warlock, in large part because I didn't want to have to explain in play why he suddenly started dabbling in Cthulu's brain. It was easier to just start him out that way and say that he branched out into other esoterica (Bard stuff) from there. Worked out well for me and was a lot of fun to play. I'd recommend it.</blockquote>
