I want to make sure I'm reading the RAW correctly, as I think I might have jumped the gun in character creation. My Character is a Bard-Warlock, and I'm trying to chart out everything per level. I know that certain class features like Mystic Arcanum are granted by class level, while things like spell slots and Cantrip damage still increase by character level. What's currently confusing me is Ability Score increases, as they're granted at all the same levels regardless of class. Would I thus increase them based on character level or class level?
Was afraid of that (WotC should really rewrite some of these sections for we autistic folk). Thankfully it's just one page that I gotta scratch it out on.

One thing to remember is your cantrips do scale by character level. That and proficiency bonus are about the only two things I can think of. So you’ll get that extra eldritch blast based on character level.

Ability score increases are class features, based on class level.
Class level

Proficiency Bonus scales with Character Level, everything else on the charts for each class scales with that class's Class Level.
Some other features like Racial abilities and the effects of cantrips scale with the Character Level.
