Quicken Spell-Like Ability and the Warlock

RUMBLETiGER

Adventurer
The feat Quicken Spell-Like Ability (Book of Vile Darkness p.49) reads, in part,
"Each of a creature's spell-like abilities can be quicked once per day..."
And so if I understand this correctly, this should apply to one use per day of every Invocation and one use of Eldritch Blast? Does this mean multiple times per day a Warlock can double up on actions by using each of these invocations along with another one?

Example:
Level 6 Warlock has Eldritch Blast, Baleful Utterance, Summon Swarm, Darkness and Curse of Dispair.

Round 1-Quicken Curse of Dispair, Eldritch Blast
Round 2-Quicken Summon Swarm, Darkness
Round 3-Quicken Darkness, Curse of Dispair
Round 4-Quicken Baleful Utterance, Baleful Utterance
Round 5-Quicken Eldritch Blast, Eldritch Blast

It appears that the Quicken spell-like ability feat can be taken multiple times, could this result in doubling up on standard actions a lot?

It has been updated in the 3.5 monster manual.

clicky

basicly you now have to pick one sla wich would probably be eldritch blast since that is your bread and butter sla and it can be modified by essences and blastshapes.


If you were to use the older version from BoVD then... yes that would mean you pretty much double your actions every round. And yes it would be worth taking twice (depending on your build offcourse but yeah).
