[QUOTE="Nifft, post: 3517078, member: 6562"] Over [url=http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=195817]here[/url] I suggested a new kind of feat for the Warlock, which would give him the equivalent of what the [Reserve] feats give Sorc / Wiz / Cleric / Druid / Bards. Basically the ability to intrude [u]like hell[/u] on their territory. :] Having said that, I feel pressure to deliver. So here they are: [b][Unlock] feats[/b] allow a Warlock to unlock powerful magical effects, but at great personal cost. Each use of such a feat drains his fell powers, such that his Eldritch Blast damage is reduced by -1d6 until he gets a good night's rest. Using an [Unlock] feat is a spell-like ability (rather than an Invocation). Each feat grants at least one, and another smaller benefit which applies when using certain magic items. [b]Planar Bastion[/b] [Unlock] Prerequsite: Eldritch Blast +4d6 Benefit: You may use [i]banishment[/i] as a spell-like ability; doing so costs you -1d6 Eldritch Blast damage until you rest. Additionally, any spell-trigger or spell-completion item that you use with the Abjuration school functions at +2 caster level. [b]Planar Breach[/b] [Unlock] Prerequisite: Eldritch Blast +6d6 Benefit: You may use [i]plane shift[/i] as a spell-like ability; doing so costs you -1d6 Eldritch Blast damage until you rest. Additionally, any spell-trigger or spell-completion item that you use with the Conjuration (Teleportation) sub-school functions at +2 caster level. [b]Planar Mastery[/b] [Unlock] Prerequisite: Eldritch Blast +9d6 Benefit: You may use [i]gate[/i] as a spell-like ability, except that you must pay any XP cost that would be associated with the spell; doing so costs you -3d6 Eldritch Blast damage until you rest. Additionally, any spell-trigger or spell-completion item that you use with the Conjuration (Summoning) sub-school functions at +2 caster level. [b]Eldritch Healer[/b] [Unlock] Prerequisite: Eldritch Blast +2d6 Benefit: You may use [i]lesser restoration[/i] or [i]cure moderate wounds[/i] as a spell-like ability; using either costs you -1d6 Eldritch Blast damage until you rest. Additionally, any spell-trigger or spell-completion item that you use with the Conjuration (Healing) sub-school functions at +2 caster level. [b]Eldritch Elocutionist[/b] [Unlock] Prerequisite: Eldritch Blast +7d6 Benefit: You may use [i]holy word[/i] or [i]blasphemy[/i] as a spell-like ability; using either costs you -2d6 Eldritch Blast damage until you rest.
