Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ace" data-source="post: 2248041" data-attributes="member: 944">I agree -- also usefull is Sudden Still Spell (which is explictly mentioned in the Complete Arcane as working with Warlock abilities) in case of a grapple -- Extra Invocation is nice too -- If you want to multiclass with anything with better armor proficiencys Amored caster (medium) and Armored caster (heavy) can be fun -- When it comes to race selection I like Human,  Elf (if you have a real high con) Lightfoot Halfling (from FR they get an extra feat) or Warforged (from Ebberon) -- If you go the warforged route your feats should be (in this order) Mithril Body (you will be enchanting this later) Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot --After that its up to you -- I recomend the following 9--Quicken Spell Like Ability 12 -- Maximize spell like ability 15-- Improved Toughness (don't laugh it gives mondo HP with your high con) and at 18 Extra Invocation For other races Drop Mithril Body (obviously) and Improved Toughness -- you can sub Sudden Still (at 3) and an  Extra Invocation (at 15) as well as something cool (Mortal Bane or  Spell Penetration or something) if you are a human Another odd possibility is an  Elf  -- If you have a high int and  con  (at least 14 with mod)  Elf makes you into quite a "spotty" warlock -- take those feats from the Heros Handbook (Guerilla Scout and the otherone I forget) that lets you take Move Silent, Hide, Spot, Serach and Listen as class skills -- combine those with Darkness and Invisibility and you have a scout/warlock -- this requires a high Int though so unless your DM is like mine and gives all classes 2 extra SP it might be tricky -- Still the extra Dex helps your AC and you get a bonus to hit with your zaps and a nice sidearm for emergency melee -- longswords rule) I don't recomend a multiclass Warlock but if I was going to do it I would go Human or Half Elf (or Shifter if you are doing Ebberon)  and multi with Ranger for a scout type -- 1 level is all you really need  -- The extra Skills (Move Silent and Hide) can be pretty nice as well as the Spot, Search and Listen for scouting -- The good things about such a combo is that the saves fill in your weak bits (Fort and Reflex) -- and the martial weapons are sweet  -- You might FREX use a glaive and that melee  blast shape -- The lack of Heavy Armor is no loss -- a warlock can't use it anyway with arcane failure or 2 more feats Later if you like you can make yourself an Elven Cloak or Resistance and Eleven Boots of Striding and Springing and  get the mobility feat tree i to be battlefield control Warlock Other Combos I like include Swashbuckler/Warlock (just for fun)  Mostly Ranger/A little Warlock for the Sneaky Detector guy (yes I have Darkvision, Can See Invisible and Detect Magic at will -- why do you ask ?) with the built in Zap - Rogue/Warlock -- Scout/Warlock and that backstabby varient Thug from Unearthed Arcana --for choppy Warlock</blockquote>
