Well I bought Warlock. I'm now up to level 9. Holy cow this is an OP class, but it's fun! That's not a complaint! Ive been able to easily solo quests with this class that I have traditionally had very hard times with. A few things I'm coonfused about:

1: Do evocation D/Cs affect my blasts? And how about when I go into aura stance?
So far, that I'm aware of, I have never missed. So not sure if I will even need to boost my Evo D/C or even Charisma.
2: Does "speed" prefix affect how quickly I throw them?
3: Does "Impulse/corrosion" (old one) affect how much damage they do? Does "deadly" prefix affect how much damage they do?

This class thus far is so OP that I'm having a difficult time equipping it due to the fact that it seems nearly everything is covered! So any recommendations on good gear for them would also be awesome!

Thanks!

blasts are basically evocation spells. Anything that works on melee/ranged (speed, deadly) doesnt work on them. Evocation only affects the pact damage part since the main damage doesnt have a save. Spellpower of the according type (force, alignment, sonic/fire/acid for pact damage) works.

for gear: one radiance of radiance lore sceptre, one sceptre for pact damage (for example resonance of sonic lore). Max cha, max con gear, light or medium armor (if youre enlightened spirit tier 4).

Do note that you will need an impulse of Kinetic lore item if you do not have Utterdark Blast toggled. It's probably a good idea to have one anyway for Evard's Black Tentacles or Ruin.
