Message: <blockquote data-quote="irdeggman" data-source="post: 3232422" data-attributes="member: 16285">A fighter can vary his tircks via various feats.A warlock revolves around eldritch blast and since it is a spell liek ability, is only usable once per rund.A warlock can combine a single essence and shape invocation on his blast.  He can't apply 2 of either one at once though.So if he wants any kind of range he uses his shape for edritch spear (range 250 ft instead of the mere 60 ft it normally hase) but he can't hit more than one target a round with it.  If he eants to hit more than 1 target he is using eldritch chain, cone or doom) - which are all shape invocations and thus are much closer in range.  Now chain requires successive attack rolls and each attack does less damage than the previous one, while cone and doom eith no attack rol allow a saving throw.Yes he can take Quicken Spell Like Ability feat inorder to be able to use his eldtrich balst more than once in a round, but it is extremely limited in benefit.Since the class gets no bonus feats the first tiem a warlock could take the feat is at 12th level.  Then he could apply it to a single combination of invocations that have the highest SL equal to 2. And this feat has to be applied specifically to a single combination of invocations per feat (the warlock can't choose to switch the combinations at will).</blockquote>
