Hell Pact Rider

A sudden pulse of magic rippled around the four of them. Two women – a wererat and a witch, and two men – a dark elf ranger and a human warlock. The two women turned to see a blur of emerald flame leap between them, an figure within the midst.

Both, attempted to avoid the incandescent claws coated in fire. But the wererat was too slow and held his neck. He gurgled something at the witch and collapsed. When his body hit the ground, his head rolled and landed at her foot.

The man in a chainshirt gave a quiet rattle as the witch turned to watch her ally fall. He did not waste the moment, and lept at her. A vicious boot struck her squarely between the ribs.

With a crunch the woman slumped onto her back. Heavy gore dripped down her leg as the man pulled himself straight and turned to the two remaining.

The warlock uttered, wide-eyed, “Wh-what in the nine! Why? We did as he asked!” His eyes darted to his fallen compatriots.

The dark elf turned to the warlock, and intoned with disdain, “Correct, you did. However, you still failed. This is inexcusable”.

The attacker, an increasing wreath of hellfire, closed in.

In short order, the cowering warlocks screams of pain were the only thing to be heard across the sewers…

Goal

By dealing yourself a single Constitution damage(which you heal each round by Binding Naberius from your level of Binder, or your Intelligent Legacy Item can heal with Restoration), you can attack four times with your eldritch claws, each powered by your Hellfire Blast ability, dealing over 200d6 damage per round, and that’s before I tell you you also have two tentacle attacks, a bite attack, and possibly a horn attack if you bind Amon. In the old Tier list, they claim warlock deals mediocre damage. This build completely annihilates that claim.
