Good plan!

It's always a possibility. He doesn't seem to have much in the way of a perception score...

Your poor warlock! How does he survive?

Laurel Shelley-Reuss

I'm going to use that for my next character :D

Utility is always best!

Hello, I see you’ve cast Witch Bolt. Please hold while I decide whether to close to melee and beat you until your concentration ends or use a single turn of movement to get 35 feet away, ending your spell instantly. Your cast is important to us, and we thank you for your patience. Now, once you get a friend who can keep an enemy locked down with a grapple or restrained condition, *then* you’re cooking with gas.

*invests even more money into that artificer's workshop that produces brooches of shielding around the clock*

It's nice to see these two can be in the same room together after what happened at the hot baths with Thief...Unless Wizard is just biding her time and deciding between unleashing Fireball or Disintegration on the Warlock...

If Warlock had a Fiend patron he could have Eldritch Blast *AND* Fireball. Such are the regrets of those who dump Int. Also, the best single target spell is Witch Bolt; 10d12 lightning damage from a 1st level spell, don't mind if I do.

My warlock doesn’t even have agonizing blast! And hasn’t cast eldritch blast in four sessions! Hahaha! I mean he still has a wis and int of 8…so…fair.

It’s all about context. When you need to fuck up one guy in particular over and over again, Eldritch Blast. When you need to clear a room, Fireball. Or, to paraphrase, “An Eldritch Blast may have your name on it, but a Fireball is addressed ‘To Whom It May Concern.’” (I know you *can* target a different creature with each beam, but let’s be realistic, 99% of the time you’re going to be slamming one guy for that sweet 4d10+20, assuming you hit all your shots, or as much of it as your level allows.)

Mage Hand. The answer is Mage Hand.
