Personally, I have found that warlock/paladin multiclass has been a really fun character to play and was by no means hindered mechanically. Adding hex on melee and Agonizing Blast with eldritch blast keep it a consistently reliable damage dealer.
What should I multiclass a paladin with?
Paladins utilize Charisma. Paladins are half spellcasters and could benefit from the addition of full spellcasters. Paladins have more prerequisites for multiclassing: Strength 13 and Charisma 13, plus whatever stat they need to meet with their new class. A Paladin’s Smite benefits from higher-level spell slots.
Is Eldritch Blast character level or warlock level?
Eldritch blast scales with character level, not warlock level. This is true of any cantrip that scales with level.
Can a paladin take magic initiate?
You can expend any spell slot, not just a paladin spell slot.” This means that things like Warlock spell slots do work for Smite (even though they recharge after a short rest), whereas abilities that let you cast spells without slots (e.g. most racial abilities and Magic Initiate) do not.
How can I get the most synergy out of this Paladin / Warlock?
Focus on your Warlock levels to become a powerful spell caster. Going this route, your Paladin levels will add heavy armour and a shield, which will help you stay alive and allow you to dump Dex. It’s not much, but it’s something.
How to make an al Paladin / Warlock multiclass?
AL Paladin/Warlock Multiclass: How to shove in that synergy Yup, that’s pretty much the Paladin/Lock build. PAM + IDS + Duelist + Vengeance + Shillelagh + Pact Magic + Cha synergy is damn powerful. I also like how many ways it has to give yourself advantage on attacks: Familiar shennanigans, Devils Sight + Darkness, and Oath of Vengeance.
Which is better Paladin level 8 or warlock level 10?
Either this or get to Paladin level 8 then take all three levels in Warlock because level 9 Paladin is empty mechanically but 10 is pretty good. Taking two levels in Warlock makes sense in a story sense because you can arc into the development of your new powers or whatever you wanna call them and use the time to RP learning how to use your Tome.
What are some fun archetypes for Paladin / Warlock?
My next character will be a Paladin/Warlock multiclass! Recharging spell slots for smites all day is nasty. Scaling eldritch blast is nice, and the roleplaying possibilities are just gravy. So what are some of the most fun archetype and level combinations and other fun options this multiclass allows?
