HELL NO.A hellfire-lock (Binder 1 / Warlock X / Hellfire W 3) gets blown away by a Psion or Blaster-Sorc of equal level (or even lesser level), every round for most combats.  *If* you have enough combats for the Warlock's "at wills" to matter, only then is the Warlock more than just good clean fun.Even cheesed out, the Warlock is somewhat average/underpowered.edit: if it matters... testify: I have a gestalt Incarnate | Warlock / Hellfire Warlock who is built for blasting and as a sort of "Human Torch" wanna-be.  And while he is fun as hell (hehe) to play, he doesn't take the spotlight on damage... ever.  His dwarven wizard counterpart can unleash several blasting spells per round (Staff Familiar, and/or Belts of Battle, and/or celerity, and/or, Action Surge, etc) for equal or far greater damage on a pretty regular basis.  I blame "Arcane Thesis" <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />  My halfling torch is most effective when he makes a target vurnerable to Dorduum's fire (using a Dragon Magic invocation)... but I'd rather let D do alittle less damage and blast away myself.</blockquote>
