Pact of the Blade Scaling off of Wisdom?
Anyone know why when I use the "Bind Pact Weapon" action gained from Warlock's Pact of the Blade it says the weapon will scale off of Wisdom rather than Charisma?

I saw on another discussion that it scales off of your highest class, but rn I have 3 lvls in Warlock, 3 in Paladin, 2 in Sorcerer, 1 in Monk, and 1 in Cleric, meaning my highest lvl classes are both Charisma casters.

what unholy multiclass are you going for... a Sorlockadiniconk?

Did you throw darts to choose multiclasses?

Sorry, I can't answer your actual question. Reading this has given me 3d8 psychic damage and applied stun.

The build is working as intended

What are your characters actual stats?
With Warlock being your highest level caster class in the build it SHOULD be scaling off CHA. Wondering if there's anything else affecting it.

Regarding charisma and wisdom, my wisdom is 8 and my charisma is 18

Having a look at the wiki someone's posted this;

"Small bug: The stat screen shows the wrong attack roll modifier for me. It says +5 but hovering over it says it's add up to 9.
If I cast the spell twice, it corrects itself. Didn't test if it actually calculates rolls with 5 or 9."



Is it possible it's doing a similar thing for you and it's simply displaying incorrectly? Or is it definitely borked?

Its definitely possible to be a bug. I casted "Bind Pact weapon" at the start of the day, and was just about to cast it again cause it's just habit for me to do it after every battle, and that's when I noticed that it's scaling off of Wisdom. However, when I checked the actual weapon stats, it seemed to still be scaling off of Charisma when I casted it before. I've just been avoiding re-casting it in case it is actually scaling off of Wisdom now.

Spells can go off the class that gave you the spell or the most recent spellcasting ability you gained, which is cleric, making it wisdom

Pact Weapon is wonky af to be honest, it's a bug not a feature

There is your issue. You got the multiclassing order not according to a weird bug. What is your complete build? Put charisma class last. So e.g. start with Paladin, then monk, then cleric, then warlock, then sorcerer as a respec result
