D&D 5E - Tasha's Mind Whip vs Charm Person vs Disguise Self for spell selection on an 10th level cha

Publish date: 2024-06-02
I am playing a Custom Lineage Undying Chain Warlock/Shadow Sorcerer. At level 6/3 she gains a level in sorcerer and gets to pick a spell which must be 1st or 2nd level Sorcerer spell, I am debating Tasha's Mind Whip or Charm Person. After this she will go remainder of levels as Warlock

Is Tasha's mind Whip worth it here? I love Tasha's Mind whip, and it is a great spell to upcast if you are multiclassed with spell casting slots. But by this time it is not that powerful in terms of damage and she can't really upcast it that well because she has great spells already for her warlock slots. It is an intelligence save, but the damage is weak and I could use catapult on a net to do as much damage with a better condition on a lower level slot (albeit on a less effective dex save). Charm Person would be situational and useful out of combat but I think that may be better. I also thought about possibly Disguise Self.

Here are some details on the character:

ASIs/Feats: Fey touched with Hex and Misty Step, Metamagic Adept with Careful Spell and Twin Spell. (Charisma ASI at 10th level for a 20 Charisma)

Invocations: Agonizing Blast, Investment of the Chain Master (Sprite), Tomb of Levistus

Sorcerer:

Cantrips: Shocking Grasp, Message, Chill Touch, Mending (plus Toll the Dead at 10th level)
