Warlocks - How do prestige classes work with them?

[moritheil]

Yeah, but think of the fiendish dragons!

Think of the Fiendish Anarchic Phrenic Vow of Poverty Hulking Hurler Tarrasque!

Anything with "Hulking Hurler" is already wrong but the "Tarrasque" just puts it over the top...

On the other hand, it makes for the ultimate reason behind "Rocks fall. You die."

Except, they knew that when they made the Warlock rules for taking prestige classes. All they had to do was point out that some other p[restige lcasses like certain ones in the DMG should be changed for the Warlock. Since they didn't do that I see no reason to.

You give the game designers too much credit.

Not really, they do a good job most of the time. If you don't like the designers you should move on to another game. Once you start second guessing everything like here the game will quickly go downhill.

Disagree. 2nd guessing is just one stage along the road to house rules, which is just one step on the road to variant rules. That road ends in having an internally consistant custom setting, which you then publish, earning you one million dollars!

When you wind up with an internally consistent setting, you will find that not enough people are buying it, because it isn't fun enough to play.

Caster vs. invocation . . . the WotC people sure know how to complicate systems.

ya, but in the rules forum none of that matters
