The optimization boards suggest taking extra invocations for all your feats- but probably it would be wises to take point-blank shot and precise shot first.

Have you tried out these threads?

The Warlock's Equipment Locker

The second of these suggests taking Hellfire Warlock and a level of binder to heal the Con damage quickly. But that might be a bit cheesy.

Yes, yes. the Hellfire Warlock is super broken, and what I want to make him.

Obvouis Eb feats:

Psion PBS
Greater Psion PBS +2d6 as move action
Mortalbane +2d6 to humanoids 5/day

Also, my character sees him self as a prophet of sorts. Any feat he can take to gain a cleric domain?

You can't actually take Extra Invocations for your level 1 or 3 feats, so that's where you can grab Point Blank and Precise if desired.

The Fey Blood feats from Complete Mage are fairly nice, though to fully take advantage, you need to give up some feats that could be Extra Invocations.

For "The Ultimate Bomb" Warlock, loading up on Meta-spell-like-ability feats and taking Hellfire Warlock allows some ungodly amount of damage that is pretty much unavoidable (take the Vitriolic Blast essence to avoid SR, but then use Hellfire, which keeps the avoiding SR part but overrides the Acid descriptor with Hellfire, which doesn't allow energy resistance) once per day (at the cost of significant Con damage).

focuse on def becase damage comes easy for a warloc
get see the unseen. devils own luck. ignor the prye. flee the seen and fell flight

for gear get the most AC you can
Mith M armor can be used without spell failuer match it up with your dex
get Vest of resistance 5 its always worth it
and get the greater chasuble of fell power
if money permits after you get AC stuff get Cloak of Chr.

I would say that Hellfire Warlock is not broken at all unless combined with obscure abilities that grant automatic ability score refreshment without paying an action. If those are disallowed in the spirit of the clause that disallows using the Hellfire if you are immune to the Con damage, the class is quite reasonable.
