Warlock Metamagic Feat Choice.

Joker

First Post
I have a warlock character and I want to take the Wild Mage PrC (CA) but one of it's prerequesites is 'any metamagic feat.'

So my question: Are there any metamagic feats from which a warlock can benefit? I would hate to "waste" two feats for an otherwise snazzy PrC.

Never mind, I stopped reading with my eyes closed and saw that the Sudden Feats work fine.

I'm sorry, I was thrown a couple of times when I was young. And I bounced!
 

Since metamagic feats basically modify spells and the warlock doesn't actually cast any, a metamagic feat isn't going to help you in any way other than to get you into the PrC. You could ask your DM if he'll let Empower Spell-Like Ability or Quicken Spell-Like Ability count as a metamagic feat (officially they're not) for the purposes of the PrC.
 

Good that you mention those because I don't quite know how they work for Eldritch Blast as it keeps rising in equivalent spell level. I think I know I have to be 16th level before I can choose Flee the Scene for Quicken SLA but I'm not sure how it works for EB.

Also, can I take Ability Focus (EB) and does that raise the DC of all the Essence invocations? Or do I have to pick one?
 

Sudden Still is very advisable, if you pick up the Dimension Door incantation, which you then can use in a grapple 1/day.

Bye
Thanee
 

Quick note: the errata from the WOTC site is that eldritch blast is always base 1rst level it is not 1/2 class level as originally stated. Only the various warlock abilities modify the level.
 

Wasn't there also an errata that said that the Sudden Metamagic feats do not work on Spell-Like abilities? I could have imagined it, but I can't seem to remember where it says that the Sudden feats work on them. Could someone provide a quote?

Since Complete Arcane says bluntly that the Sudden feats work with Invocations and SLA (CA p71-72), and I have the feeling that Warlocks were most of the reason for their existance, I highly doubt there is such an errata.

Ah. I must have missed that.

The Warlock class description, under Eldritch Blast, specifically states Ability Focus (eldrich blast) improves the save DC of all saves associated with Eldrich Blast.
