Level Up (A5E) Druid/Warlock Multiclass Awesome!

Important points:

1. Warlocks can use Wisdom instead of Charisma for their main stat, so this is a SAD build instead of MAD.

2. Eldritch Blast is no longer a cantrip, but a class feature. And you keep class features while in Wildshape.

3. Wildshape no longer has restrictions on what level you need to be to pick a flying form.

With a minimum of 1 level in Warlock and 2 in Druid (which is enough to get subclass features for both, btw), you can turn into a your favorite flying form and rain death from above. Take another level in Warlock for Eldritch Spear and you’re practically untouchable in any outdoor combat scenario.

I'm sure there's an Achilles heel anyhow. First person to point one out gets a cookie!
While you will be very safe, there are trade-offs to this plan (several heels):
1. The strategy is made completely useless in areas where your enemies can easily take cover/close quarters
2. Take more levels in druid, Eldritch Blast gets stronger significantly slower. Sure, you're hard to kill, but you aren't killing anything else quickly either...
3. Take more levels in warlock, your Wild Shape won't last long enough to get you through every adventuring day, even with increased uses. Also, you won't be able to use your warlock spells while in Wild Shape, and if you are planning on being in Wild Shape often that means you're missing out on one of the biggest aspects of your class so that you can spam an effective but super repetitive and boring combat option.

In short, if my player did this, I'd ask him why he hates himself. If I'm lucky enough for him to look up from his phone I might even get an answer!
