They all (aside from undead) boil down to doing JUST that. It should influence how you should play other then 'Oh every warlock subclass should cast HEX/HEX BLADES curse + Agonizing blast and ELDRITHC BLAST x infinity.' And thats what EVERY-SINGLE-SUBCLASS does. They gave undead warlock some flavor with its form and being able to cast a cantrip in that form that gains bonus's and it changes how they play - YES - YES thats what a subclass should DO. That is boring and unflavorful of a ******* GENIE. Genie warlock, wanna know what they do? They cast 2 spells and then spam eldritch blast forever. Give me the flavor of more spells or just give me more spells to cast. Make them more 'Voodoo' oriented and really make me curse people and hex them, further weakening them.

If you won't give me MORE spell slots then give me MORE/DIFFERENT Hexes that do DIFFERENT things. And Wizard DOES have consistent damage through cantrips 2d10/3d10 firebolt damage isn't a joke. Genie it changes based on the genie you pick, Undead should be NECROTIC etc.

I honestly think EB should be different per warlock sub class you take. All of it just gone and hidden behind eldritch invocations and the eldritch blast cantrip. You are trading spells for potency but losing ALL OF THE FLAVOR. There are some incredibly fun and interesting utility spells that make things interesting or allow you to do MORE and the warlock doesn't get to do those things because they have to decide 'well i get to HEX and MAYBE do this other spell.' Then you just eldritch blast spam till no end. No see, YOU'RE falling into the trap of DND that damage = everything.
