[QUOTE="irdeggman, post: 3972044, member: 16285"] Jhulae, Good points about a halfling build and it is better than most other non-human builds, although I would argue that a gnome makes a better race than a halfling (the +1 to hit due to Dex mod is more than negated by the other racial abilities the gnomes get {we are talking about a ranged "touch" attack here not a normal ranged attack so the warlock is already ahead on his to hit rolls}). But IMO they still don't make up for the bonus feat that a human gets. The warlock class really benefits more from feats than anything else. The built in "weapon focus" is handy, but only if that is a feat that would have been chosen anyway - and IMO it is not in the "must have" list of feats - for martial type feats (other than the point blank/precise shot feats, which are very high on the "must have list" if going for ranged attacks) you are better off dipping into a level or two of fighter, but losing the CL is a real hefty penalty.
