Thus far in combat, he comes in casting Divine Favor, then follows up attacking with staff and shield. If anyone i adjacent, he'll use GFB to hit them too. it's going to be beautiful once he hits level 5 and gets the full die to add radiant soul to.

I might be able to get along without Warcaster, but it may just be a tax on the build. Not having it has caught me with my hands full a few times I would have liked to use Shield.

I also keep contemplating a fighter or paladin dip, for a fighting style, and either smites or Action Surge. I will take a second level of Warlock at some point to fully turn on the blasting potential, but I'm not sure if I want to do it immediately, or go straight for third level sorcerer spells first.

Any suggestions for spell swaps or other build advice?
