Warlock Multi-classing (HEX issue) And overpowered build
Be careful Multi-Classing warlock. Im on act 3 of my first play through. Hex is a must for warlocks and should be cast using warlock spell slots but i multi-classed with fighter and sorcerer and as soon as the sorcerer gets higher level spell slots hex starts using your highest level spell slot and can no longer be cast using warlock spell slots. Warlock spells are always level 1 but they cast at the highest level you have available so if you cast witch blot using a warlock level 1 spell slot and you have level 4 spells available it will cast it at level 4 and be refreshed using a short rest. This is the utility of a warlock, 2 spells that always cast at the highest level but you are limited to 2 and refresh on short rest. But using hex blows my level 4 spell slots now. I believe this is a bug but just be aware. Also for those looking for a massively overpowered build im; Level 1 fighter (for heavy armor) level 2 /3 warlock for hex and eldritch blast (get agonizing blast and repelling blast. level 4 fighter for action surge. Level 5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12 sorcerer for sorcerer points and higher level spells. My AC is 22 with staff and shield i can cast 3 spells in 1 turn and eldritch blast is hitting 3 times per cast so 9 hits if i blow all my cooldowns (Action surge/Quicken spell.) I also found an item that lets me cast spells in melee range so i never have disadvantage, you just click it on and off whenever you are "threatened" With all of this being said my warlock level 1 spell slots are usless. Im having to use my sorcerer level 4 slots for hex and if i lose concentration i have to re cast using another level 4 spell slot. The sorcerer points let me regain spell slots so its not completely a waist but it still isnt working as it should. Even if the only thing i could use warlock spells for is hex this build would be from the god i am to something my warlock patron would even be scared of.

So...the work around for this is to click on the warlock pact slots icon that's above your action bar, next to your various resource icons. This will bring up all the spells you can cast with those pact slots, including hex.

Multiclassing spell slot usage is...not great in BG3, but for casting, this is how you select which ones you want to use.

Yeah bud im aware of clicking on the slots and no warlock spell is in the warlock slots anymore. Hex, ferfire and hellish rebuke are all highest level now and you can only see them on the blue level 4 slots
