![]() ![]() No, I did not consider EB's three attacks in that statement. A 5% chance of it happening gives an average boost to damage of 2.7 per attack, or 8.1 per round. That's an average of 54 damage on a crit, not 89.5. Total average is now 36.105.Įldritch Smite does 6d8 damage by default at level 13, and 12d8 on a crit. If it is possible for warlock to get this feat, whether directly or due to multiclassing, the 93.6% chance of hitting provides an extra 4.68 damage per round. This cannot be assumed, and must be considered a separate factor. There is the pending question of whether warlock qualifies to get Great Weapon Master (or other combat feats) based solely on gaining proficiency with the pact weapon. Three attacks gives an average of 31.425. ![]() 1d8 (longbow) + 5 (Cha) + 1d6 (Hex) + 1d6 (Lifedrinker) 60% accuracy = 9.9 average damage per attack.Īdditional from critting is (1d8 + 1d6 + 1d6) * 5% = 0.575, for a total average damage per attack of 10.475. I disagree somewhat with the math you show.īase damage is fine. WotC will work that all out through internal playtesting. Anything beyond that is not automatic, it all comes at opportunity costs, and involves other features which could be tweaked if they are found to be too powerful for those opportunity costs, and I’m not particularly interested in arguing about specific builds. Maybe the blade version is slightly stronger thanks to the weapon mastery, and I have acknowledged that may be a place where it’s overtuned. I consider the potentially larger damage die a wash since it requires investment in an otherwise useless ability score. ![]() I’d say that’s pretty close to equivalent the Eldritch Blast version gets the advantage of range and the Pact of the Blade version gets the advantage of a weapon mastery. Since we’re granting Pact of the Blade as automatic, I think it’s only fair to grant Agonizing Blast to the Eldritch Blast we’re comparing to. What you get automatically is three Charisma-based attacks with up to a d10 damage die, or d12 (or 2d6) if you invest in 13 Strength, and weapon mastery. I disagree that what the Warlock gets automatically makes the bladelock overpowered (discounting the fact that pact of the blade is itself not automatic, obviously). ![]()
