Warlock - Frightening or Sickening Blast?

[Octal40]

Why not take Earthen Grasp? No save (though there is the grapple attempt). Sprouting one arm a round ain't too bad.

Yep, when it says "New Invocation" in the table, from then on you can choose higher levels of invocations (lesser (6th+), greater (11th+), dark (16th+) IIRC).

You do get other invocations bewtween 1st and 6th levels don't you?

You just don't gain access to the next class of invocations until 6th level. But you could gain two or three of the least invocations by the time you reached 6th level.

You can also change one of the invocations you already know at 6th level, but once it is changed it stays that way. So you could change Sickening Blast for Frightening Blast cause the chance of an enemy failing a will save is better than failing a Fort save at higher levels, you could do that.

Earthen grasp doesn't work very well. The hand has a very bad AC, so the AoO generally hits and stops the grapple. It is really only good for taking up a square and "wasting" people's AoOs.

Yep. You learn an additional Invocation every other level (roughly) and a new LEVEL of available Invocations every five levels (roughly).

You can also change one of the invocations you already know at 6th level, but once it is changed it stays that way. So you could change Sickening Blast for Frightening Blast cause the chance of an enemy failing a will save is better than failing a Fort save at higher levels, you could do that.

Yep, you can do that.

If Fright won't stack, maybe Sick is better... hmm. Apparently I didn't read the fine print on the Warlock.
