(More to Come)

No, actually, it shows that I know what I'm talking about. The designers of the class specifically said that it was designed to be selfish.

Rogues are a selfish class too, yes. They don't provide very much benefit directly to the rest of the party. Bards are exactly the opposite--pretty much everything they do directly benefits the rest of the party.

Who said I ban Warlocks from my games? I've played Warlocks several times, and I've never banned them when I DM. Stop making assumptions.

I did read the second version:

Nothing about them not stacking. Please don't lie.

Iajutsu masters cannot deal +Cha per die at 500 foot range as a touch attack, 4 times a turn as a touch attack, or in an...

Wow a proper post with argumentative thoughts and explains why you disagree.

You know, I swore I wouldn't be back in this thread. But, seriously, are you just pretending to be deliberately obtuse, Tygari? We have told you, repeatedly, what the problems are in this version of the warlock that you have made. You just keep repeating that we are whining. I will not, and cannot, tell you what to do in your own game. If you want this warlock in your campaign, then fine, use it.

Don't expect that anyone, anywhere, will let you take into their world.

And if you honestly don't understand why this is, then, sir, I feel pity for you.

Master Arminas

Your prior argumentative post didn't say you were whining. It said you made a good argument that was well thought out.

Just saying something is broken and nothing more is whining.

Saying something is broken and then going into in depth explanation is a disagreement and an explanation as to why.

You did really well on your post prior to this last one.

Tygari wrote:

Another post of whining without telling how its wrong.

How?
How?
HOW?

Please re-read my post. I did explain what was wrong. You might not like or agree with what I said, but I did explain.

Calling it a selfish class only shows you hate warlock and don't wish to see its broken aspects fixed. its that ego that's most annoying. I have played warlock many times and its never been a selfish class. If warlock is selfish then so is bard and rogue. Do you ban them form your games?

Epic abilities to class are not unheard of. Wizard did it with many abilities from 3.0 to 3.5 Most of the classes had epic abilities that were later given as regular class abilities later on. Adding essence and shape modifications like that won't hurt anything and keeps it in better align with later sorcerer and wizard spells.

Originally I did think to have the improved crit and the crit range increase stack but I did realize that was over powered. Its not in the 2nd version. They do not stack there. So try reading the 2nd version.

Cha per hit dice is an ability achievable before this one for itjutsu master. It allows players to make an itjutsu roll and add cha to every bonus hit die. Itjustu master can achieve much higher dice at a much earlier level with this same bonus and wizards of the coast said that was fine when they wrote up their epic extension of the class. So its not over powered.

Nothing you have said is valid. Other classes have such abilities at a much greater degree.

Please don't lie about what I have said, especially when you quoted my entire post in the same post you lied in.

I never said that the 3.5 Warlock was too strong. In fact, I explicitly said that I did not think it was broken. I said it was very strong, which is true. 3.5 Warlocks are the best crowd control/battlefield manipulation class in the game, and they have a surprising amount of utility outside that (permanent flight and invisibility, for example).

Your update takes a class that was already good and adds an extremely high amount of power to it and directly contradicts one of the design goals of the class. The Warlock was designed as a selfish class. They can use their abilities at will, but with only a single exception I can think of (cold comfort, from Complete Mage), they can only use their buffs on themselves. Giving them dozens of first-level spells from any class takes their utility, triples it, and allows them to buff and heal others infinitely. Then you give them abilities that were Epic-level feats in 3.5 and let them take them without even spending feats. Then you give them insane damage boosts--16-20x6 (12-20x6 with Improved Critical) with +Cha per damage...

Another post of whining without telling how its wrong.

You are quite wrong -- and your tone is unwarrantedly hostile. You asked for an evaluation of your character, and neither Fozbek or myself or anyone else responding to this thread have give you cause to take such a hostile attitude. Ok, you want we to actually go through and tell you why this is such a bad idea?

And yet here you are with a proper reply. A much better response. with a proper argumentative purpose instead of saying I don't like something cause I don't want too. Your prior post was childish and pointless. this ones good. Try to make future ones like this one.

As for a reply. I am quite aware of all that. I actually did stop to look at all the 0 and 1st level spells.

Yes in this design set up a warlock would gain more 0 and 1st level spells then a cleric, druid, sorcerer or wizard. But then I ask how many spells above 1st do they get? How many of those compare to warlock? Even if you compare similar spells from the two lists those others can cast them with much more force then a warlock can.

Warlocks aren't a replacement to cleric and druid healing and divinity nor a replacement to sorcerer and wizard arcane might. No matter what a warlock does they can't do anything as good as the others. Their more like a Bard in their respective role. They can fiddle around in various other classes but never be as good as those other classes.

This is how I see Warlock. Like comparing barbarian to fighter. Just cause both swing big weapons doesn't make them the same. they have their own way of doing things. Plus you can't forget. A warlock only gets one eldritch blast a round. This is its primary offense ability. Even if you specialize with the opens above A warlock could never hope to out damage a sorcerer or wizard or fighter or barbarian in damage. A warlock works best when it is running support. Not in healing but in filling in lost roles and for boosting roles in need of extra support for a round or two help. its not like they can cast 8 or 9 of these a turn. Spell-like abilities are one a turn. unless you have the quicken spell like ability feat. So what ever a warlock chooses they only get the one a turn.

That is the essence of the wisps ability. To allow a Warlock to better assist their party. Also don't presume just cause the ones you put bold are the ones you personally think are the best that others might not choose a different path.

As I have said, the wisps abilities don't concern me. in my honest opinion their a minor ability for diversity sake alone. I am much more concerned about some of the others.

What I am concerned about is if there's to many dark gifts. Is 8 a proper number or to many?

Are all the gifts balanced?

Some of the gifts are really strong but they fit so I tried to make them more difficult to acquire.

Did I make a proper variety to cover most aspects a Warlock might take?

Let's presume you nearly max out Charisma: start it 14, add in your level ups, get a +6 item, get a +5 tome = 30 (. So, your Warlock would have 12 invocations, plus eldritch blast, plus 22 0-level spells (I don't think there are that many, lol), plus 22 1st-level spells, all of which are usable at will. That is not 'a bit of diversity', it is brokenly insane.

Adding your Cha modifier on each d6 of eldritch blast is also FAR too strong.

You need to rethink this.

Master Arminas

No its not. 0 level spells can barely do anything. Like taking a Nerf gun to a fight. Having more Nerf guns isn't going to help in a real gun shoot out. If you can't handle 0 level spells as a DM and especially 0 and 1st levels spells by levels 11 you really have no reason being a DM. So far you haven't explained anything as why its broken mere stating a lot of anything automatically makes something broken. If your not going to give a proper reason and argument then don't post.

The Warlock was already a very strong (not broken, as some claim, but certainly very strong) class in 3.5. This increases that power level substantially, without need or reason. The Warlock is one of those classes that needed very, very little change to update it to Pathfinder: update its skill list, maybe fix the progression of eldritch blast to be regular, and maybe give them a replacement for Imbue Item, which everyone can do in Pathfinder.

Great another person who claims warlock was to strong but can't give a word of evidence to back it up. Your opinions mean nothing if you can't explain why. So until you can say more then whining you don't like something please don't post. your wasting peoples time having to read such a useless post.

So . . . does this class gain additional 0 and 1st level spells as they learn new invocations? If not, just give a fixed number plus the Charisma modifier. If they do, you are giving this class a LOT of at-will utility powers (12+ 0 and 12+ 1st level spells usable at will, plus all of their invocations!). I would humbly suggest a fixed number for these powers, perhaps 2 or 3 plus Charisma modifier, or (even more radically) don't inclue the Charisma modifier at all, and just make it 4 spells they gain as part of this ability.

Master Arminas

Yes that's exactly what it means.

Of all the abilities on this list that concern me.
This one is pretty close to the bottom.
Everyone always says warlock doesn't have enough diversity.
This is how I came up with a means to cover that.
And its not like something similar to this isn't unprecedented.
Its fine. If a DM has trouble with these abilities they really need to learn to control their group better.

A Warlock doubles all the range values for all Eldritch Shapes. A Warlock may gain this Mastery repeatedly. Its effects stack.

Imbue Item
Requirements: Dark Skill
A Warlock may create any magical item even if he does not know the spell required to make the item. He can substitute a Use Magic Device check (DC 15 + Spell Level for Arcane and DC 25 + Spell Level for Divine) in place of the required spell. The Warlock will also need the appropriate Crafting feat to create the item. A Warlock can only use this ability to replicate spells of a caster level equal to that found on the lowest spell chart for any other class.

why don't you make the capstone the epic feat that allows 2 eldrich blast per round?

Eldritch Sculptor [Epic]

That feat plus quicken makes a max possible of 3 a turn.

I know of no other way of increasing it beyond this.

I think If I left Eldritch Power and removed the increased multiplier it should be fine.

With the critical feat Eldritch blast can be quite debilitating on top of its damage.

There's also the option of removing several of these class abilities and making them part of a list of options a player must choose from as the level up in warlock.

That way a player could customize their warlock more to their exact liking.

I could easily augment many of the abilities and add in some i had considered bu rejected when making this version.

That give players the options to make really unique warlocks to their express desires.

Don't worry, it's not overpowered at all. Unless of course there is a way to further expand the critical threat (such as would be possible with a melee or ranged weapon via the Improved Critical feat or keen weapon property).

Warlock has always been able to take the improved critical feat for eldritch blast. Said long ago by Wizards so yes.

I have never heard of weapon enhancements being added to Eldritch Blast but I suppose there could be magical items created to do so.

But yeah it's pretty high damage for a crit. That's why the only class that can get a higher crit modifier while have a high crit threat range is a level 20 fighter.

On the other hand, one thing i've never understood, can a warlock fire of one Blast for each of his iterative attacks?

If he's only shooting one a turn it might not be that bad.

Yes, the idea was based on that Eldritch Blast can only be fired once a turn.

Course I always wondered that since Eldritch Blast is a standard action to fire if a player could use a double standard Action in a single turn to cast two Eldritch Blasts?
But I am pretty sure that is not allowed.
As there is an epic Feat to give Warlocks a 2nd Eldritch Blast a turn.

I do know quicken Spell Like Ability Feat will give a Warlock 2 a Turn but that feat comes with limited uses.

Doesn't matter over all I believe Omega999 is correct. I should remove Eldritch Soul and replace it with something else.

I was thinking of making Eldritch Soul a Dark Invocation?

I also think I will remove the x4 modifer.
Or maybe replace Eldritch Power Completely.
I just thought I make it more critical capable since a Warlock only gets one shot a round.

PS-- Why won't it let me edit the original post?

If I can't edit it that's going to suck.

the Eldritch Power Class Feature is overpowered. just let the warlok gain Improved Critical(Eldrich Blash) as a bonus feat.

Can you please explain?
