[QUOTE="kigmatzomat, post: 9127960, member: 9254"] Last week on the "magical cunning" thread I noted it seemed like the devs had decided to move away from "spellcasting nova warlocks" and lean all the way into warlock being a gish but the caster-focused folks didn't really want to get into it. I am not sure I agree with estimate on total output simply because so much of it depends on the volumes of encounters/day & short rests/day, which have been the bugbear of the warlock class since day1. I do think this will go a long way to countering that as warlocks can easily fall back into a multipurpose skirmisher when spell slots are thin without being [I]just[/I] eldritch blast cannons. (Which, to be fair, they still are. But they are not [I]just[/I] eldritch blast cannons) Assuming there is some last balance tweaks so the warlock is not the uber-melee, the question now is how the gishlock will be received. Will the caster types reject it? Will fighter types decide its too weird to play? [/QUOTE]
