Hello everyone.
I created a homebrew Warlock class for PF2e since there hasn't been one created yet from Paizo. I used other warlock classes for inspiration and was wondering if I could get some advice for balancing out the class. My goal is to get this class as close to balanced with the core classes as I can. One of my players is a huge fan of them and wanted to play one.
You can view the class sections here:
Class ; Feats ; Patrons ; Boons ; Invocations ; Focus Spells ; Archetype

Looks pretty cool! I created a PF2e Warlock of my own a while ago (did you see it? I tried to stick very closely to the D&D5e version.)
Do you have some place where we could download the entire class, rather than the piece-meal bits listed above?
It's interesting that your version doesn't get actual spells, just invocations. What made you choose that route? It certainly makes the class more unique.

Thank you for the kind words. I'm not sure if I saw yours or not, but I was using a bunch of warlock classes I found as inspiration. I was trying to stick with the theme of the D&D 3.5e warlock myself, cause I wanted to get that feel of an all day caster without it being overpowered compared to the core casters. That is also why I went with the invocations instead of using the spell lists. I was also trying to add more flare to the warlock by adding in more patrons and having "pleasing the patron" be the driving force behind the warlock's power.
As for an all-in-one file, here ya go. I figured the different sections uploaded separately might make reading it a bit easier since the complete file is 34 pages long.
I'm also hoping that Paizo realizes that they can create an official Warlock class now that the OGL v1.0a, that is the basis of the entire Pathfinder engine, has been updated to include the warlock class. Based on section 9 of the OGL, they can use any iteration of the OGL v1.0a that has been released.

Thanks for the compiled class! Much easier to use when it's compiled.
Don't know if you had it already, and if so which version (this was the last, version 3.3), but here was mine: Here
I tend to go through a lot of iterations and get feedback and suggestions along the way when creating house rules or modifications.
No prob, I did have the compiled class available but wasn't sure if that would be easier for people to read. And your version of the class does look very familiar, so I probably did use some aspects of it as inspiration for my version. Thank you for the help and inspiration.
Have you had a chance to play test the class at all? And if so, does it seem balanced with the other classes in the game?
