so i just found the hybrid rules for executioner, and really want to hybrid it with hexblade, but i think hexblade is hybrid-less still... i would love some ideas for this, if anyone has them. executioner/warlock with the pactblade feat? im starting at level 8 and just wanted to explore this idea a bit on the forums

Unfortunately the pactblade feat was pulled from the final article so there isn't an MC Hexblade option either.

OK, let me make sure we are talking about the same thing here, its been awhile and I had to go back and look at the article to refresh what they did. Are you talking about the Pact Blade Manifestation feat, which let a O-Warlock gain access to a Pact Blade? (For some reason I was thinking it was an MC feat, as I said its been awhile)

It's not an official feat anymore since it was removed from the final article, but if your DM allows it then it works.

Well assuming its allowed, i have a question. Icey skewer, the fey pact weapon's power in heroes of the forgotten kingdom says it can be used in place of a basic attack. The hybrid rules for the assassin's attack finesse says it can "only be used with basic attacks, assassin attack powers and paragon attack powers"

Because of that wording, can i use icey skewer and attack finesse together, if i use icey skewer as a basic attack?

Yep, as well as the basic warlock power Eldritch Strike, or any other unconditional basic attack substitute power.

Thats pretty awesome, at level 8 i could icey skewer 1d10+6, +1d8 attack finesse, + 3d10 assassin's strike sounds like a nice round, could mc rogue and get another 2d6 per encounter, max damage of 66! And the basic icey skewer/attack finesse attack isnt bad either. [edit] i forgot about warlords curse too, could i use that also because icy skewer is a warlock power?

I really want to max this, seems like a great, versatile striker! Long range with eldrith (can assassins strike there too) skillful, decent defenses (icey skewy gives +2 till eot)

Whadya think?

Or not be a hexblade, curse some guy, have the mindbite scorn or what ever it was from the Darksun book that gives you an extra dice of curse damage that is psychic, the feat that makes those dice D8s, and hit someone with eldrich strike and a rapier for 4d8 + mods - then add your assassin strike to that.  You dont need to worry about faffing in the hexblade stuff and just fluff your weapon being surrounded by horrific energies.
