 Starting the moment you get Cone/Doom you will want to use it on NPCs that have low saves instead of using Chain. Remove Cone once you acquire Doom.
-Do not forget that Warlock can cast in light armor. So wear leather armor for AC. Vendor one if needed as it might be hard to find good random one.

+**Important:** Since NWN-EE patch 37 there is a new bug that prevents Warlock to select Combat Casting feat and possibly Spell Penetration too. There are two way how to workaround this issue. Either revert to version 36 or use the feat.2da file - read and follow [[en:known-issues#feats_with_spellcasting_level_requirement_doesn_t_show_at_level_up|Know Issues]].
 I still have to playtest this in the field. It is possible it needs a penetration feats rather than raw blast damage I took.
 I highly recommend Halfling race, it is +1AC and immunity to Chilling Tentacles. The skill points are enough, or rather I did not find need for UMD since Warlock can use anything with Sorc/Wiz/Bard use limitation without UMD.
-I don't recommend to use shield. Even that 5% arcane failure is too much and happens way too often. The 1 AC doesn't make a lot of difference, while under effect of Divine Shield, together with IE, you should have enough AC for everything.
+I don't recommend to use shield. Even that 5% arcane failure is too much and happens way too often. With maxed wisdom and Monk AC, the difference is just 1 AC in favor of small shield. Of course maxing +18 wisdom isn't easy. But even without that, the AC should be high enough for anything you encounter in targeted dungeons with Divine Shield active.
-This is just the starting build and you will want to remake it once you farm any of these: Kobold race book, Hellfire Warlock, Acolyte of the Skin.
