Darklight, viable?

[Lauf]

hello fellow builders!

the basic idea behind this originally was to get a warlock with as much light spell power as possible, so I can blast things to oblivion, and see what I end up with.

the end result was a morninglord cleric, sporting a 12 cleric / 7 warlock / 1 fvs split.
if you have any ideas, criticism, or suggestions for improvement, your help would be most welcome.

the obvious knock on this build is it will not be doing any DC based casting, that's a given.
the other disadvantage is that the mana pool would be smaller than with most casters, because of the warlock + heavy multiclassing.
this is also why I've included mental toughness in the build.

advantages -
self cast blur/displacement/jump/ddoor to go along with the usual divine buffs
light spell power of 116-146, before items = 30 (Morninglord) + 44 (Divine Disciple) + 42 (Enlightened Spirit) + another 0 to 30 from Scourge (Angel Of Vengeance)

basic playstyle (hopefully) - hunt dangerous mobs at a distance with ray spells (mobile spellcasting feat = kiting made easy) and clear trash around me with warlock light blasts, empowered by the hits & scourge.
toss out heals as needed, and you're everyone's best friend :)

here's the plan:

I think you're going to find yourself caught between 2 paths of kiting and damage aura and not be super great at either, your eldritch aura proc rate is slow due to your low warlock level.

combat casting and mobile spellcasting are not really necessary on ray type spells as those are usually quick casts (w/o quicken) and don't slow you down much. I would dump them for something else.

Just my 2 cents, but I'd like to hear an update on your progress. good luck.
