Acolyte of the Skin
Acolyte of the Skin is a variant Warlock archetype themed around Demonic power and transformation. Introduced in Update 58.
Changes from base class[edit]
- Alignment
- Any non-good
- Bug: There might be a bug that allows some characters take AotS despite having incompatible alignment. However, such characters cannot take the True Patron: Fiend feat. (DDO Forums)
- True Patron: Fiend
- The only pact option for Acolytes. Same as Fiend pact, except:
- No autogranted spells
- Level 6 ability: Instead of Dark One's Luck, gain Fiendskin: +1 profane bonus to Fire Resistance per Warlock Level.
- Eldritch Blast and Pact dice
- Give up Warlock's blast and pact dice progression, instead receive the following feats automatically:
- 1: Lesser Pact Attunement: +2d8 Blast Dice, +2d6 Pact Dice
- 6: Pact Attunement: +2d8 Blast Dice, +2d6 Pact Dice
- 12: Greater Pact Attunement: +2d8 Blast Dice, +2d6 Pact Dice
- 18: Ultimate Pact Attunement: +2d8 Blast Dice, +2d6 Pact Dice
- Important Tip: Multiclass characters can pick up these feats (just like Monk stance upgrade feats).
- Example) 19 Cleric, 1 Acolyte of the Skin -> They can take Pact Attumement at 6, 12, 18 as their feat choice.
- This is a total of 8d8 Blast Dice, 8d6 Pact Dice. For comparison, a standard Warlock at level 18 has 5d8 Blast Dice and 9d6 Pact Dice (can push to 6d8 Blast and 10d6 Pact at level 20).
- Enhancements
Dice comparison table[edit]

| 12th | 6d8 | 6d6 | 20th (Blast) / 12th (Pact) |
| 18th | 8d8 | 8d6 | 28th? (Blast) Not really an existing level, but it's effectively 28th warlock level. / 16th (Pact)
