Introduction
Edit
This character is for people who want to focus on ranged damage from the Warlock and who want to be a decent healer as well. This also includes being Psionic for some feats that'll give you more damage to your Eldritch Blast.

Highlights
Edit
So, because of Psionic Shot (greater) and Hellfire Warlock Class, your Eldritch Blasts do a +4d6 and +6d6. That's an extra 10d6 (or just an extra 6d6 if you happen to move). Also, you can use your invocation to buff your cleric spells (the heals). You can heal someone, then it can chain to the next person for half and so forth. Gaining levels in Pelor makes it so your healing is more potent and can eventually have all max heals. You can use (if you decide to get) the Eldritch Spear invocation and apply it to your heals for ranged healing without getting the Reach Spell metamagic feat. Don't forget about Point Blank Shot, within 30 feet, you get +1 on attack and damage rolls. Cleric spell Restoration heals CON damage from using hellfire on EB.
Items of Note
Edit
- Greater Chausable of Fell Power (permanent 2d6 extra to EB)
- Gloves of Eldritch Admixture (does extra 2d6 to EB a limited time a day)
- Warlock's Sceptre (also does more d6's to EB a limited time per day)
- any item that can help repair constitution damage from the Hellfire blast
Limitations
Edit
In the Complete Arcane, it says that Warlocks are USUALLY chaotic or evil... USUALLY.
In this case, you are required to be Neutral Good and worship Pelor (because of Radiant Servant of Pelor). For the Eldritch Disciple to work, you must worship a chaotic good god (Kord).
