[QUOTE="UngeheuerLich, post: 8081066, member: 59057"] Before I actually start: I think the warlock as whole would benefit from an invocation slot at level 3, since there are pact gated invocations without level restrictions you can only get by retraining at that point. Here a few additions: [LIST] [*]The hexblade curse works as well with eldritch blast as with a blade. So the hexblade is not really a gish but rather a "full" spellcaster with a lot of at will spells that can do melee. [*]a fighter mage needs to pay for his fighting ability. In older additions it was slower level progression as a multiclass character. Now you need to consider adding 1 or two levels of fighter. You function really well with that combination, no matter which patron you pick, but as Hexblade you have it a bit easier. 13 Str, some con and a lot charisma makes you actually good at any fighting style. [*]Bladesinger cantrips (which are conveniently also warlock spells) help you play without thirsting blade taking aome pressure from your invocation shortness. Most probably they will be readded in Tasha's CoE. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
