Question about Warlock/Wyll and Eldritch Blast
So, I have this (apparently) wonderful spell called Eldritch Blast.
While playing the game, I noticed that this spell is very useful if used with another one called Repelling Blast.

For some reason, I don't have this spell, probably (I suppose but I'm not sure, still trying to understand) because at some point of the game, I chose Agonising Blast over that one. Now I just leveled up my character, I was happy because I thought it could be possible to fix this mistake.. but.. I couldn't get it back!
Now.. two questions:

1) Is there a way to get Repelling Blast back?

2) Where are all this "spells" like Agonising Blast listed? For example, I can see that I have Agonising Blast only because if I go to Spellbook > Warlock, if I mouse over the Eldritch Blast, it tells me I have that effect applied, but is there a list of all the things "I know/choose to learn" ?

I just hit LV4 and I didn't had the chance to do it. When I'll have another chance to change it? Maybe LV5 I hope?
Yeah. You get to choose additional invocations at level 5, 7, 9 and 12.

Repelling and Agonizing Blast are Warlock Invocations. Not spells in themselves. Besides choosing spells as they level up, Warlocks also get Invocations. (To see the full table on Warlock progression, check the class guide at bg3.wiki.)

When you take them, they become passive modifiers to Eldritch Blast's effects. Repelling Blast in turn has a passive toggle, so it can be toggled off.

Ok, I know that. But how do I use it or get it? I don't see repelling blast anywhere :(

You gain additional Warlock Invocations as you level up. Check the table at the Wiki. If you take it, the passive to have the effect on/off should be in Passives. (There was a bug with the Passive that I think finally got fixed with recent patches/hotfixes.)

The only invocation that is absolutely a *must* get is "Agonizing Blast". "Repelling Blast" is one of the better ones, but I have come to think that "Devil's Sight" is the second-best after "Agonizing Blast".

It depends by the strategy, the environment... I don't know if later in the game, that evocation will be not that useful, but until now damn.. I wish I could have had that. The fall damage is soooo sweet sometimes (or even sending them to the voooid <3 )

Repelling doesn't proc every time, so it's not reliable.

(Or maybe it does proc every time, but there's a save against it. Either way, you can't count on it.)

You can also just go respec / change your class to reassign your choices sooner.
