Since I waiting for Larian to add Paladin class, I also wonder, if they add Celestial Warlock subclass at least in the final game.

I hope they will add the halfling from ebberron and the celestial patron and all the invocation this seem to be a game made from the 5 edition rules there is so much that can be put in the game and tasha's cauldron just came out omg I'm totally gonna buy it when it is out

Hi, is there any word about blast shapes and at what level would we get them, spear should be low level and useful in this game, and having a cone cantrip every round makes it worth it till you hit doom blast at lvl 9??

To Larien, For Warlocks, other 2 pacts being added for release?
- Anonymous
Warlocks are kind of boring with only one short rest per long rest. That is just not enough
Even wizards, with arcane recovery, get their spell slots back once a day.
I understand the limit, but it should be AT LEAST twice per long rest, or even three times!

no pact boons?
Seems really simple to add the 3 pacts from a gameplay perspective. Chain is just find familiar, Blade is just proficiency and weapon spawning and tome is just more cantrips.

Please add "Hexblade" patron as well. I think its a great magical warrior class, and makes "Pact of the Blade" very meaningful

Sooo, where does this spell-table come from?
Because on DND Beyond and Roll20, the Warlock get's his 3rd Level Spells on Class Level 5, and 5th Level Spells on Class Level 9.
But on this table, the Warlock is "unlocking" 3rd Level Spells on Class Level 11 and doesn't even get to 5th Level at all.
As the game is supposed to only let us level until Level 10, the Warlock isn't getting 3rd Level.
So, please: Is this officially already? Where's the source for that table?
For pact of the blade, please just add the hexblades hex warrior to it.
It is REALLY, REALLY bad otherwise, even with thirsting blade etc
