Do you need to know the spell already or do you get it from the Invocation? |
| #2RazintarrMay 20, 2015 0:39:38 | The invocations grant you the spell too. |
| #3cowleymenMay 20, 2015 2:55:48 | They allow you to cast a spell with out spending a slot.
As for if you know the spell, as in a multiclass warlock can now cast that spell with "standard" spell slots from another class, or just one of your pact magic slots to get the effect of a higher level slot from the spell, I think that is up to your DM. I would not be opposed to warlocks being able to use pact magic to cast an invocation spell at higher level, or even using a spell slot from another class to do so as well. |
| #4MechatarrasqueMay 20, 2015 8:47:11 | Invocations have the fluff of you being altered by your patron, so I assume the spell is downloaded into your brain. Whether or not it takes a slot to cast the spell depends on the invocation. My impression is that utility spells granted by invocations usually don't take spell slots (at least the lower level ones). |
| #5jaelisMay 20, 2015 9:05:41 | I don't think that you learn the spell. If the invocation lets you cast it 1/day, then you can't use a regular slot (either warlock or other class) to cast it more often. |
| #6HammerbeardMay 20, 2015 10:44:02 | Thanks for replies/help. Thanks Razintarr for simplest answer. To be honest I hadn't fully realised the Invocations I was asking about were all dealing with spells NOT on the Warlock list so obviously they would be learned via the Invocation. |
| #7HammerbeardMay 20, 2015 10:45:10 | By "learned" I mean granted to be used ONLY as the Invocation allows. |
