I’ve read responses to my build on here and another forum and after reading them I realized I probably want to do the Hexblade thing more than the bard thing. You and others pointed out my build is far too implausible and although I wanted magical secrets, I’d rather have the melee with the rest of the warlock casting. So although I’ll be behind 3 levels I think I’m just going to go straight Hexblade from where I’m at, ending at 3Bard/17Warlock. I don’t feel the 3 levels will be that wasted considering I’ll have 4 level one slots to protect myself with shield and by the endgame 5 cutting words per long rest for more protection, not to mention I can feystep out if things get really rough. Still fits my character’s backstory as a musician that makes a deal with a cursed guitar for power and incredible musical talent. He will just be corrupted more and more over time as he uses the guitar’s magic to power his savagery in battle rather than musical prowess.</blockquote>
