[QUOTE="Esker, post: 7646845, member: 6966824"] I would also swap out Prestidigitation for maybe Minor Illusion, or Toll the Dead, since you already have Thaumaturgy from being a Tiefling, and I don't think Vicious Mockery is worth it since you have Eldritch Blast. If Warlock 1 / Bard 4, I'd take Eldritch Blast and Toll the Dead from Warlock, and Minor Illusion, Friends, and some other nice utility cantrip (Mage Hand, maybe?) from Bard. If staying Warlock, swap Prestidigitation for Minor Illusion, and swap Resistance for Sacred Flame (Resistance is overrated, IMO, since you don't want to use your concentration on it in combat, and out of combat you rarely know ahead of time that you're going to need to make a save). Or swap Prestidigitation for Toll the Dead, and swap Resistance for Mage Hand or a melee cantrip. In terms of leveled spell selection, you probably want to decide whether you're focusing on debuffing when in combat; if so, I'd drop Hex since it eats up your concentration. If switching to Hexblade, replace it with Shield. I'd switch Darkness for Suggestion, to enhance your manipulation game. And dropping Disguise Self frees you up to take a ritual from the bard list, if dropping warlock down to 1 or 2, or maybe Charm Person, or possibly something like Tasha's Hideous Laughter. [/QUOTE]
