[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 9486355, member: 87792"] YMMV [I]especially[/I] under 2024 rules. I mean I see how you can get there if you've made poor choices in invocations (Agonizing Blast plus ones that didn't make it to 2024; there are a lot of bad invocations in the 2014 PHB with over a quarter of them just being dumped), and you keep the incredibly overrated [I]Hex[/I] spell running from one of your two slots rather than only ever casting it [I]before[/I] a short rest because warlocks play best when they play dirty. But the only reason I can think of to do that is because you [I]want[/I] to play the warlock that way rather than as a tricksy and versatile character (mostly illusionists under 2014 rules; much more flexible under 2024). Some people don't find combats interesting and want to autopilot them, and a warlock is the only caster that can do this. Their kinks are not my kinks but I don't begrudge them the choice. And even if you find the 2014 warlock as repetitive as the champion in combat then the warlock is massively more useful in social situations (charisma class with cantrips). [/QUOTE]
