[QUOTE="ad_hoc, post: 7298136, member: 6748898"] I contend that if it lasts you 8 hours then you weren't in any real danger anyway so it doesn't really matter what spells you were casting. Hex is one of those things that is only good when you didn't need it anyway. I should add that I think a lot of the group think also involves the assumption both that the Warlock won't be hit and also won't have enemies in melee. Both Hex and Eldritch Blast become far less effective when enemies attack the soft ranged attacker. It's not that Agonizing Blast is bad, it's that with only 2 invocations there are better things to do. I would much rather have a ritual book and at will silent image than Agonizing Blast for example. Once 5th level comes around and I have 3 invocations and I'm getting +4 damage for 2 attacks, well that's pretty good. Though the cantrip is still not going to turn the tide of a difficult fight, Hex or no Hex. [/QUOTE]
