AnonymousDoes anyone else enjoy randomly spamming Eldritch Blast to destroy all the furniture in a building?

AnonymousSo, for reasons unknown my lvl 10 character only has 2 beams. I thought it was supposed to be 3. IDK if one of my mods messed with it or if my game just bugged out. Even rebuilding with withers doesn't get it right.

AnonymousThinking about Eldritch Knight lvl 8 and Warlock lvl 4. Eldritch Knight granting Warmagic should enable EB to trigger the bonus action weapon attack since its a cantrip? you could basically get a free ranged weapon attack after casting EB, or am wrong?

AnonymousIs there any way to make wyll stop missing every single eldritch blast?

AnonymousLooks like patch 4 removed the blast's ability to sneak attack, super lame.

AnonymousExtremely powerful with agonizing blast invocation from warlock (otherwise it's basically firebolt). Let's warlocks keeps pace with martial classes in single target damage (2 attacks + mod at lvl 5, 3 attacks + mod at lvl 10). Although great weapon master / sharpshooter feat probably slightly edges it out in damage eventually, you also get powerful warlock spells.

Anonymousspellsparkler speciul robes(an extra charisma on top) SORLOCK blaster (3fighter battlemaster for precision maneuver,2lock,3rogue thief,4 sorc)
4 rays, at +5 cha (10 dmg per ray), 1 ray is 1 dmg
11-20per ray - 33-60+11 ->> 44-71 PER eldritch cast
220-355 at 5 uses (haste,surge,action,2xbonus, FLEXIBL)
if delaying 1 turn, hex adds 1d6 for EACH ray ,and ilithid power adds 1 extra ray to each eldritch blast(25 rays for 5 uses) - > 11-14- >55- 70 which makes 275-425 flexible dmg OR single target ->25-150hex >>>300-575 dmg
there ARE finer calculations to be made on the sorlock front because they lose 1 ray on an eldritch cast due to sparkler going off sometimes...p.s sorcery points can be stacked before a fight in case anyone wondering why no more sorc...(charisma is 2x from 1 feat and 1x from a quest and theres even more goodies for charisma boost)
BATTLEMASTER IS A MUST for the precision maneuver, it applies to all rays in a cast
Agonizing Blast is so strong and bugged, if you have The Spellsparkler (lightning charge) doing 1 thunder damage it will proc Agonizing Blast a second time and a third time when you consume the 5 charges too ... Need more test what other source of damage can proc it more.

AnonymousThe range should be 36m no? In the tabletop its range is 120ft not 60ft.

AnonymousDoes this also change to 3d10 at level 10 like Fire Bolt? Or is it only the beams you get when leveling?

AnonymousDoes the cleric ability for adding wis modifier to cantrips stack with this?

Anonymous
AnonymousIs it me or has this been nerfed in full release? Before it used to add another attack modifier onto Eldritch Blast and would also stack on the Necrotic Damage for Hex, so you'd get 4 damage numbers, not just two; you could do some crazy damage, now it's just 1d10+charisma with Agonizing Blast.

Anonymousmultiple eldritch blast casts can appear when you hit level 5 as warlock

AnonymousWill this get stronger with CHARACTER level or WARLOCK level? I’ve seen people say both and I know in 5e it’s CHAR level.

AnonymousIf you take magic initiate to get this will you still get multiple beams at higher level?

AnonymousWait wait wait. So eldrotch blast DOESN'T gain additional beams as you level up like in 5e? WHY???? That was the while point of the spell

AnonymousWhat stat should I Hex to help Eldritch hit INT for a saving throw Dex maby AC?
