| #1kypriothSep 28, 2009 16:45:50 | Is it even possible? I am building a warlock that already does some pretty good damage, but If I could find a way to use another eldritch blast, it would beef it up considerably. It needs to be available pre-epic, and I have already added the quicken spell like ability in the build, I am looking for away to get a third blast. |
| #2Maat_MonsSep 28, 2009 17:31:26 | You could get someone to turn you into a choker. Also note that demonbinder is another way to get a swift action eldritch blast. That requires you to be a drow, but if you can use the 0 LA version of drow or buy off the LA it might be good. |
| #3kypriothSep 28, 2009 17:40:19 | Excellent. Where can I find the Demonbinder class? |
| #4waazraathSep 28, 2009 17:41:30 | Take white raven tactics from ToB, make sure you have a cohort that also has it... - your turn: use the blast & white raven tactics as swift action
|
| #5kypriothSep 28, 2009 18:04:39 | How much of dip do I need to make to get that ability? I am trying to stay pretty close to full progression. |
| #6waazraathSep 28, 2009 18:18:33 | Either 3 feats (leadership, martial study 2 times), or 2 feats (leadership & martial study) and an itemslot (for crown of white ravens, 1500gc), or 1 feat (leadership) and a classlevel in crusader or warblade. You can pull this off with a willing partymember as well, without the need for leadership. |
| #7Maat_MonsSep 28, 2009 18:35:51 | Excellent. Where can I find the Demonbinder class? It's from Drow of the Underdark and there is an excerpt. Take note of the damnation points ability and the marilith option of the demonbind ability. |
| #8kypriothSep 28, 2009 18:43:23 | Right, I can probably do that, especially since leadership is the most broken feat in the game. Now that my warlock can kill anything ever printed in a fraction of a round, I have come across a serious flaw in my build, what if I lose Initiative? I am going to have a high dex and probably imp. Init. too, but just in case, how can I help beef up my defenses? Since after I post my build people are likely to mention the survivability of the build isn't much better than the average lock. So my next question is, how should, and how can, I make my Warlock last long enough to live if he doesn't go first? |
| #9sallaSep 28, 2009 18:46:38 | Never mind, didn't read the OP right. |
| #10nighttreeSep 29, 2009 10:52:06 | I don't know if Pathfinder variants are an option for you ? But the Pathfinder version of Warlock can take "arcane flurry" at 12th level. The bolts do half damage, but you can fire of a number of bolts per round equal to 1/4 your caster level In addition, Arcane bolt is an (Su) so no spell resistance nightmares, and has a greatly improved range It's in Tome of Secrets.....check it out. |
| #11uhm_hoiOct 12, 2009 5:43:25 | You could use the eldritch glaive invocation from dragon magic. It turns your eldritch blast into a glaive and lets you make more attacks with it if your base attack bonus allows it. Not sure if this is what you're looking for though, but it can do some very nice damage. If you're interested search for some glaivelock builds. |
| #12dawnmorOct 13, 2009 18:09:39 | What level is your Warlock? If you were lvl 3 then I think I may beable to help. Probly not the best to do but it sounds fun atleast Warlock 3, Cleric 4, ED 10, XXX (You can 3 more Warlock or 3 more Cleric), Personally I would go 3 more Cleric to get 9th lvl spells. If I was going for a Blaster from Frak type. I would do a Warlock 3, Wizard 3, ET 10. Then add 4 on either Warlock or Wizard side. Now your a decent DPSer. I personally would go Cleric side because with that you can buff yourself up and in turn increase your effectiveness as a Warlock I believe. If you cant, then I would go Wizard. Race, depending on what you do and if your allowed an LA buy off, You could go a Cleric spring attack healer with a Quickling. Cant go wrong with that Right now though my race choices for these 2 types would be a Quickling for its high dex or a Pixie for its more spread out abilities. If you go cleric, grab monks belt to get Wis to AC. If you wanted too you could even go with a Dwarf Warlock, Wizard/cleric, then one of the corresponding PrC (ED/ET), then if your going past lvl 20, add in Fist of the Forest somewhere, maybe Monk to boot and your good to go If you wanted too you could try a trick to get Abj Champ 5, Arcane Disciple to get Divine power going for you. Now toss Divine power on ya. Your looking at Max BAB (Thanks to Divine Power), and Max CL (Thanks to the 5th lvl Abj Champ ability) Let me explain. Given power gives you BAB based on your level. Abj Champ gives you a CL based off of your BAB which should be maxxed Hope this helps |
