Tactics
Ranged blaster glass cannon. Poor AC means avoid melee and archers. keep distance as much as possible and use cover when able. Use spells like shield and misty step to avoid or break melee when needed but try to focus slots and sorcery points on big powerful spells enhanced by metamagic. burn pact magic slots for more sorcery points any time the party can be convinced to take a short rest as Wint will probably spent them quickly, especially once Psionic Sorcery is available. concentration will probably not be that important early on and will improve after getting Eldritch Mind invocation at Warlock 3 (likely level 8 or maybe 6). lean into being a face and use magic when needed to understand or be understood.
metamagic combos
- 1 sorcery point:
- subtle hex to give disadvantage to npcs without them knowing
- subtle dissonant whispers in a crowd to force a chase
- 2 sorcery points:
- sorlock action surge: hex + eldritch blast + quickened eldritch blast
- quickened leveled spell + dodge action when under heavy attack or when concentration is important to still be able to attack while maintaining max defense.
- 5 sorcery points:
- quickened mind sliver + heightened save-or-suck spells against a powerful single enemy to make them much more likely to fail the saving throw
Level Advancement Plans
- Level 5: Sorcerer 4
- Proficiency Bonus +1, Cantrip boost, +1 Cantrip (Mold Earth or other utility cantrip), ASI/Feat (+2 CHA), +1 Spell Known(see options below. currently leaning towards Mirror Image as long as that FG extension still works), switch psionic Calm Emotions to Tasha's Mind Whip (my favorite level 2 offensive spell)
- Level 6: Sorcerer 5
- Magical Guidance (sorcery point to reroll a d20), +1 Spell Known (probably has to be fireball), Level 3 spells, +2 Level 3 slots, Level 3 Psionic spells (Hunger of Hadar, Sending), maybe switch Detect Thoughts to See Invisibility or Hold Person
- Level 7: Sorcerer 6
- Psionic Sorcery (able to subtly cast psionic spells with sorcery points), Psychic Defenses (resistance to psychic damage & advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened), +1 Level 3 slot, probably switch Hunger of Hadar to Enemies Abound or Tongues
- Level 8: Warlock 2 (maybe move to level 6, but i think i prefer to accelerate getting psionic sorcery)
- +1 Pact Magic Level 1 Slot, Eldritch Invocations (Agonizing Blast, Eldritch Mind), +1 Spell Known (probably Protection from Evil and Good but Armor of Agathys, Cause Fear, or Hellish Rebuke are the other top warlock-exclusive options),
- Beyond: Probably all Sorcerer, game will likely not go long enough to consider Warlock 3 (for level 2 pact slots, +1 known spell, and probably a ritual tome pact) or fighter if lack of AC too hard to get over (but 1 level of fighter would just make me want a 2nd for action surge)
- Feats of interest: CHA ASI to get to 20 ASAP, then beg for GM dispensation to be able to take Metamagic Adept again to get a couple more metamagic options and sorcery points, when that fails maybe Eldritch Adept (Devil's Sight if darkvision is a problem or beg for GM dispensation to take Maddening Hex or other higher level-restricted option), Lucky, Spell Sniper?

- Level 1: Feather Fall, Chaos Bolt, Tasha's Caustic Brew, Tasha's Hideous Laughter (P)
- Level 2:
- single opponent shutdown - Blindness/Deafness, Hold Person(P), Maximilian's Earthen Grasp, Phantasmal Force
- buff - Darkvision or See Invisibility(P), Enhance Ability (especially if other party spellcasters do not have access)
