Was testing through the Warlock Class page. Noticed this error (for the SRD content)
Otherworldly Patron:
At 1st level, you have struck a bargain with an otherworldly being of your choice: the Archfey, which is detailed at the end of the class description, or one from another source. Your choice grants you features at 1st level and again at 6th, 10th, and 14th level.
At the end of the section the only available is the Fiend - may want to either reference the Fiend in the above or change the available Patron below
which is detailed at the end of the class description, or one from another source
Worded this way because you can got to other sources for further options. The SRD and Basic Rules help you get started, but are written to inspire you to get the full content if you so desire. The only Archfey in SRD is a fiend.
Both the Fiend and Archfey are Patron options. The Archfey is not a fiend. It's more accurate to say the only Patron in SRD is the Fiend, but the SRD references the Archfey by name rather than the option actually provided.
"But many warlocks serve patrons that are not fiendish. Sometimes a traveler in the wilds comes to a strangely beautiful tower, meets its fey lord or lady..." "...with sprites and pseudodragons tied to the Archfey and imps and quasits tied to the Fiend." "If your patron is the Archfey, your weapon might be a slender blade wrapped in leafy vines. If you serve the Fiend, your weapon could be an axe made of black metal..."
Elsewhere the class page clearly refers to Fiend and Archfey patrons as separate beings, so this seems to be a typo, not a definition issue.
Ah, thanks for clarifying. Yeah, then the SRD has an issue properly explaining that so that means it is not only in DDB but from the material being inputted. So the PDF is also wrong so this is not just a DDB issue since they copied it right out of the SRD. When it is explained near the end of the class info in the SRD it is correct, but this little blurb earlier on does need to say Fiend in the SRD. Nice catch and I have to say my not knowing the 5e Warlock as well did not help see there is much further explanation of Archfey vs Fiend. Even an old gamer can learn something they have screwed up in their head. LOL! Thanks again.
Life is too short to be a crank and I've lived way long enough (nearly half a century) to know I screw up a lot. ROFLMAO ;) And just because I've been messing with RPGs in various forms since the early 80's as a teen doesn't mean all the different stuff doesn't get all jumbled in my head or lost in a brain wrinkle somewhere.

You're welcome. Thanks for being polite and open-minded. (It's sad how rare that is these days.)

The only option under Warlock Patron is still The Fiend. Archfey and Great Old One is still not an option.
