[QUOTE="UngeheuerLich, post: 8833926, member: 59057"] Still, the issue is warlock and eldritch blast, not multiclassing in general. Tie eldritch to warlock level, and you are good. Also, even if 6d10+6d6+30 (84) looks like a lot, it is only damage (and pushback) on single targets. Inflicting status effects or just throwing a fireball and a sunbeam (after setting it up) be more useful. Not to speak of globe of invulnerability which reduces your damage to zero in a duel. Mental prison will catch you by surprise and since you took sorcerer first, your will save against mass suggestion won't help you a lot. If I feel like it, I upcast shadow blade and attack twice with greenflame blade (although this is not allowed strictly by RAW after the last errata). That does not mean, that the multiclass character is in any way underpowered, but there are also big downsides to give up your highest spell level nilly willy. [/QUOTE]
