What should my Warlock take at 6th level?

[Kat']

How about Walk unseen invocation? Always nice to have.

Side note: Warlocks do not cast spells and thus don't qualify for Obtain Familiar...

Might I personally recommend Point Blank Shot, which IIRC does apply to the warlock's eldritch blast.

Quicken SLA is nice. You could quicken an invocation, like fell flight, as a swift action then go in for your hideous blow as you are probably doing now.

Especially useful in the first round or for invocations that 'buff' your warlock.

I also like the confusion invocation, Voices of Madness. 80% of the time you are going to benefit. When you are facing two strong opponents, swift confuse one, then attack the other in the same round...it's a powerful combo at low levels.

Warlocks qualify for anything that requirest "caster level", but not "ability to cast x-level spells". Obtain Familiar is a go (and a fey-based warlock with a faerie familiar is awesome).

It isn't that cool, it is a Raven. Which has been very useful, scouting, delivering messages etc.

Well, I cannot use greater invocations yet, it sounds like you are talking about bewitching blast. Also, I think QSLA is only going to be useful when being higher than 6 (I think 12 it gets good).

It is an option, but I am using the greatsword when I am close enough to use it and it does 5d6+5 vs. 3d6+1 w/pbs. Nah, I am going to go a different direction that super shootey. Shoot as a backup and when the AC is too high to hit with the sword.

I'd vote #1. When you later take more Fey feats, the DR increases too.

Yeah, it looks pretty good. But an extra Invocation is very appealing...

Warlocks don't qualify for Quicken SLA until about 11th level, and then only for either a basic Eldritch Blast or a Least invocation. And Fell Flight lasts 24 hours, so you're never likely to need to cast it in a hurry.

You'll get more invocations in due time. But take Fey Skin, Fey Presence and Fey Legacy (iirc) and you'll get DR 4/cold iron (added to your class DR) and 6 spell-like abilities, including deep slumber and summon nature's ally 5.

I don't see this in the BoVD. ...and I don't see BoVD errata on wizards site.

Prereq is just invocations, no verbage of any other limitations other than further uses per day.

It's been working really well at low levels...

 

[Sadrik]

They can take it at low level however they cannot use it until later.

Look at the chart on the right hand side the caster level has to be equal or higher than the level equivalent of the invocation.

I think I will do the Fey Skin feat. Since I am planning on being in melee it will be beneficial. It gives DR 1 + the number of fey feats that I have that have a prerequisite of Fey Heritage- which is 1 (Fey Skin). So, it will give +2 DR to my 1 DR making it 3 and I believe I get an additional DR at 7th level.
