Pact of the Blade (passive feature)

Pact of the Blade is a Pact Boon granted by the Warlock class. It allows a Warlock to specialise in melee combat by using a special Pact Weapon, granting two actions for this purpose.

Description

You can  Summon a pact weapon, or  Bind the one you are wielding as one, making it magical.

Pact weapons use the wielder's Charisma modifier instead of Strength or Dexterity.

At higher levels

At level 5, Warlocks gain  Deepened Pact which grants an  Extra Attack with your pact weapon.

Grants:

•  Pact of the Blade
•  Bind Pact Weapon

How to learn

Classes:

• Class level 3: Warlock

Notes

Grants two actions:

•  Pact of the Blade - summons a Pactbound weapon.
•  Bind Pact Weapon - binds the current primary melee weapon and gives it the Pact Weapon condition.
• Though not explicitly stated in the in-game tooltip, a Pact Weapon will use your character's Spellcasting Ability Modifier instead of its Strength or Dexterity Modifier.
