Re: The Warlockopedia: A Comprehensive Warlock Handbook
Thanks for writing this, it's adjusted my thoughts on invocations somewhat, and seems a great guide.
Anyhow, I'd like to point out the Ghostly Arms graft from Libris Mortis. It doesn't replace arms, and gives you ghost arms, 1 per 6000gp (3000 if you craft them), double for a set of hands, and this gives you an extra invocation if you have multitasking (Also, you're the only other person I know who actually noticed this for their guide, so grats!). The net effect is that you just dismantle the action economy 12000gp at a time... Too bad you can't use Flee the Scene to move and shoot due to it being a dimension door effect.
Also something I'm not sure you noticed, with some invocations being CL based it's worth taking a look at Elder Giant Magic if you go the giant route. Up to +3 CL, albeit at the cost of 3 relatively easy concentration checks (At the level it's available) and 3 full round actions. So if you can set up an ambush or something big with a CL effect, go nuts. But probably better in games where you can get homebrew to actually access more cl based invocations.Originally Posted by Me

Re: The Warlockopedia: A Comprehensive Warlock Handbook
I feel like if you don't think arm grafts have to replace existing arms, there are better arm grafts available. Long Arm and Mighty Arms are both cheaper, for example.
But it's only for giants, and only outside of combat. It basically only works with the dead walk, right?Rhymes with "Protracted."

Re: The Warlockopedia: A Comprehensive Warlock Handbook
1: Ghost arms would need to mention replacement as they're incorporeal.
2: Sources for those?
Flee the Scene, Nightmares made Real, and the Scorching Wind (With draconic) also off the top of my head, which is why I brought it up as being better in homebrew games.
Additionally it boosts the cl of your 24 hour buffs, giving you some dispell protection, and lets you take 23 on out of combat dispells.Originally Posted by Me

Re: The Warlockopedia: A Comprehensive Warlock Handbook
Would they, though? If you can graft on an extra ghost arm, why wouldn't you be able to graft on an extra non-ghost arm?
I'm on mobile atm, but they're in the item spreadsheet somewhere or other.
+3 CL to dispels isn't the same as taking 23 because you still run into the CL cap. The others seem pretty niche. I'm not convinced. I could add it anyway, I guess, but it seems questionable.Rhymes with "Protracted."

Re: The Warlockopedia: A Comprehensive Warlock Handbook
Updated with a new sample build for eldritch theurge! I've been working on a similar warmage handbook, so I got to incorporate some of that optimization-fu into this build.

Re: The Warlockopedia: A Comprehensive Warlock Handbook
Regarding Craft Wondrous Item in the Theurge Example, it might be worthwhile to mention the option of the DMG II bonding rituals as an alternative means to acquire the Chausible within WBL restrictions. Ritual of Purity is accessible with a mere 6 ranks in concentration and all it requires is 2 weeks of fasting/meditation, for example.
You're already cheesing the ET prerequesites, so one use of a questionably balanced DMG II character options to save a feat seems reasonable enough I'd say.

Re: The Warlockopedia: A Comprehensive Warlock Handbook
Thank you.
Now that I have a second mega-handbook in the works, I'm working on an even more generalized, even more comprehensive item spreadsheet. At some point I expect I'll retire the warlock-specific one. It's still a work in progress though, so any feedback on it would be welcome! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharingRhymes with "Protracted."

Re: The Warlockopedia: A Comprehensive Warlock Handbook
So, I was looking at the arachnolock build and it uses the vulkoori arachnomancer, do you know what book that's from or where I can find the class
