Hello,
Spell Point variant rule from DMG guide seems to be giving Sorcerer's ability to everyone else except warlocks. Normally, one is able to cast any level of a spell maximum of 4 times a day (I think). With the slots, one has to think even about casting level 1 spell. With the spell points, casting level 1 spell costs basically nothing and one can hapilly spam (for example) Shield all day long.
Why isn't this available to Warlocks? It breaks the same mechanism. This would allow Warlocks to take spells like Charm person, Shield for hexblade etc. without punnishing them for not having scalable spells and for casting it with a high level slot.
(I've seen a lot of people playing the Spell Points only with Sorcerrers, combining spell points and sorcerer metamagic points into one pool, allowing them to use these for either metamagic or spells, making sorcerer's more unique.)
Thanks
