[QUOTE="BlackSeed_Vash, post: 7498300, member: 33580"] I am only aware of 3 prestige classes for the warlock. All of the come from the Complete Mage. Both the [U]Eldritch Disciple [/U]and [U]Eldritch Theurge [/U]progress how many invocations acquire and their caster level; but doesn't progress Eldritch Blast damage dice. [U]Enlightened Soul[/U] does the opposite. In addition, a warlock can take partial advantage of prestige classes that provide a "+1 level of existing arcane spellcasting class", but said progression only works on increasing the spell level of already acquired invocations and eldritch blast (but not it's damage) which for your purposes make this knowledge unhelpful. Eldritch Disciple is meant mostly for a Cleric, but can work for any class with turn/rebuke undead. You gain 9 levels of divine casting, and 10 levels of warlock invocations/spell level progressing. You progress you turn/rebuke undead. Spread across the 10 levels, you get to pick from a limited list of powers, up to four time, that cost a use of turn/rebuke undead and a swift action to activate. Last, but not least, you gain the ability to add an Eldritch Essence to a spell of equal or greater spell level that requires an attack roll. Standard actions spell now take a Full-Round Action to cast; Full-Round spells or longer take an additional Full-Round to cast. Eldritch Theurge is intended for arcane spellcasters, but works best with ones that use Charisma as their primary stat. You gain 10 levels of both arcane casting and warlock invocations. You gain/progress DR/cold iron. You gain access to the Fiendish Resilience like the warlock, no idea if they stack if you acquired it from both warlock and the prestige class. You gain the ability add an Eldritch Essence to spells as mentioned above. In addition, you can gain two more abilities. One allows you to cast an area spell into an Eldritch Blast as if it were an Eldritch Essence. If you hit, spell goes off on one of the target's corners. If you miss, you lose the spell/spell slot. Can only be used on Standard action spells and turns it into a Full-Round action. The second is functionally the same, but uses spell with a range of touch. Indirectly, the prestige class [U]Uncanny Trickster[/U] from Complete Scoundrel, can be used to progress 2 levels worth of warlock class features, which include invocations. It should be noted that this prestige class it only 3 levels and honestly gives a lot if you can/allowed enter it. As a pure warlock, you'll need an Intelligence of at least 14 to enter. Edit: Forgot to mention, but there are additional invocations in the Dragon Magic book. [/QUOTE]
