    You can go dex based and be in fatesinger, doesn't matters if you are a warlock.
      

    Dear players,

    The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means.

    Love,

    People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly

    What if you tossed these and spent the AP in warlock trees? Do you need the spell penetration for something?

    Light of Sun God requires 10 spent points to get, it adds +30 Light Power. 2 spent between elven accuracy, 4 spent on Elf Int, 4 spent on Arcanum 2 (most useful of the tier 1/2s IMO for the sp) and then t3 Light of Gods.

    Yeah but it costs 6 AP to max out. 2 AP get you first tier, +10.

    Points in jump are worthless.

    I'm not sure if 3 shield feats are worth it. I like to meta up my SLAs.

    US seems like piking. You can go EA and add Soundburst and Divine Wrath to your Spirit Blast rotation. Then you can twist in Evo familiarity to up your blast dps or Energy Burst for max AoE, and free up a t1 twist for either Cocoon or Interrogation.

    the problem is, nothing else is more important.. and the points HAVE to be spent somewhere.. jump was logical

    I put ranks in diplo and perform first. I was 18/2 bladeforged though, so had to go sonic pact.

    Good idea on evo familiarity.  I played around with it on my sorc a while ago but didn't really remember if cooldown times were rounded or not. 

    If you can get blast/burst to 4s cooldown, that would be sweet, but I don't think it worsk on SLAs.

    Spell cooldowns are not rounded to the nearest second, but yeah it doesn't work on SLAs.

    I was only mentioning it because it sped up my eldritch blast animation when I tested warlocks on Lam. I haven't tried it on live, but arcane alacrity worked on live, so I'm assuming it does as well. (They stacked on Lam.)

    I did testing on lamma too and came to the conclusion that there was no difference.  I just redid the test on live, and came to the same conclusion:

    Time of 10 volleys:

    arcane alacrity/evo familiarity 22.30s

    evo familiarity 22.37s

    arcane alacrity 22.40s

    neither 22.40s

    Blast shape/essence/pact/etc used?

    I've heard conflicting claims on this and other warlock testing. I have a suspicion that one of these is determining whether blast counts as a spell for various effects.

    My testing on lama was feypact chain. I don't recall if I was using the evil damage essence one or the neg level essence (which was OP at that time.) Either way, I confirmed ~3 seconds per 2 volleys versus ~4 seconds per 2 volleys, which was inline with what I was expecting from AA + EF.

    On live I used an aura melee build so I wasn't able to thoroughly retest (because no EF available.) I do recall the animation changing speed when I toggled AA, but I didn't measure it.
