Wondering if anyone is aware of any decent 3rd party published stuff that has some interesting warlock invocations.

Holy Cow, I never knew that existed. How much flipping work was put into that thing! (oh and I'm in it, I'm really more excited about that than I should be).

If we're talking *published* third-party, my Guide to Greatness has a couple. Admittedly most of them are for the new Dragon patron, but said patron represents a strong departure from the norm (it trades Eldritch Blast for an at-will AoE), so I dunno if that's your jam. And my spell-less Warlock variant (https://homebrewery.naturalcrit.com/share/sHEltNuAQ) has a ton of new Invocations. You could use most of them with the standard Warlock if you wanted, although the balance may be a bit wonky-- they're not meant to coexist with spellcasting.

Oh dang, that is complete.

Thanks guys! Grod, I've been a fan of your guide to greatness since you first posted about it way back when. I like your take on the warlock - a fairly faithful port of the 3.5 version from what I can recall.

I bought “Tome of the Pact” from DMsguild, and it has a series of cool invocations.

They're only for one particular homebrew Pact, but I will also toot my own horn a bit and offer up the invocations associated with the Pact of the Skin (https://forums.giantitp.com/showsinglepost.php?p=24428485&postcount=14).

I really really like that pact and the associated invocations! Unfortunately, I'm looking for options for an existing character. I sat down with a group I'd hadn't played with before, knowing only the DM in advance and so made a pretty typical bladelock rather than try out anything more 'outside the box' as I typically do with my ususal group. Now I'm finding myself feeling hemmed in by the roll. The campaign and table are really narrative driven and my lack of utility is grinding on me. Anyway, I've found some ways around it with creative uses of things like accursed specter (and a note pad) as a great alternative to speak with dead for instance, but the DM has opened the door up for 3rd party invocations if I can find some that fit the flavour of my character or can be reskinned without trouble to do so.

Can you tell us more about your character and what the limitations you've been feeling are? Examples where you've felt the pinch would probably help, too.
