That is generally a much stronger path for multiclassing warlocks: Because eldritch blast keys off your character level rather than your warlock level, you keep a strong damage baseline that levels up automatically, and you can mix-and-match Charisma classes to your heart's content. You can go all-out sorlock* craziness if you want, but you can also just be a strong and versatile spellcaster putting out a steady barrage of force damage.I know it seems weird to play a hexblade and not go Pact of the Blade, but hexblade actually has a lot of good stuff for a regular blaster-warlock. Hexblade's Curse is like hex that doesn't require concentration and can be stacked with the actual hex spell. And shield is a super-handy panic button for any spellcaster... particularly if you have some low-level sorcerer spell slots lying around, so you don't have to waste your few warlock slots on it.If it's important to you to keep the bow, then I would stick to no more than 1 level in sorcerer until you have Thirsting Blade. You don't want to delay that damage spike more than a level; it will contribute far more to the party's survival than a few healing spells. The best healing is to kill the monster before it can deal damage. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Once you reach Thirsting Blade, you can branch out more. Due to its peculiar mechanics, warlock is very multiclass-friendly. If you like the idea of adding some divine sorcerer, go for it.[SIZE=-2]*The sorlock is a multiclass warlock/sorcerer build where you burn most of your spell slots for sorcery points, then use those sorcery points to Quicken Spell on eldritch blast. It's like a fighter who can Action Surge for five rounds in a row. And if you find yourself in a situation where you need the spells, you can always use the slots for that instead. I leave it to your judgment whether you want to introduce this level of cheese to your campaign.[/SIZE]</blockquote>
