[QUOTE="Blue, post: 7021884, member: 20564"] Hmm. Let's look. First ability scores. DEX we can drop with heavy armor, though it means we'll go slower and miss on DEX saves. WIS and CHR both need to be at least 13 and then higher for attack rolls, save DCs, and riders. Front line is okay. SCAG cantrips help make up for no extra attack. Either way it's not the best place for a heavy caster to be since it risks your Concentration more. Lack of boosts to melee make it lackluster. Though needs tome warlock for shillelagh unless you are also boosting STR or DEX, and that will kill you elsewhere. Ranged ... well ranged weapons without boosts or extar atatck will take a back seat to your EB. It's a nice cantrip. Won't equal a crossbow expert with three attacks or a sharpshooter with +10 damage, but it's good. Requires high CHR, which means WIS isn't getting boosted. Casting has some rechargable slots, but on both casting sides you will be lagging at least a full spell level behind. Two different casting stats hurts a lot. Support and battlefield control compete with Hex for Concentration, but you have both cleric and warlock lists to chose from. You called it - a lot of flexibility to cover everything. It seems like it can pinch-hit for just about any category, though as a second-fiddle to someone who does it as their primary focus. [/QUOTE]
