One of my PCs is a Hexblade Warlock, with the hex warrior feature, who has reached lvl3 and now gained Pact of the Blade feature. My question is; does the hex warrior feature aply on the pact of the blade weapon after you change its form? I mean, you start your day with a Greatsword, but then in a dramatic moment you change it into a dagger, does it use your charisma modifier? or changing it to any other weapon.

Hex Warrior
At 1st level, you acquire the training necessary to effectively arm yourself for battle. You gain proficiency with medium armor, shields, and martial weapons.

The influence of your patron also allows you to mystically channel your will through a particular weapon. Whenever you finish a long rest, you can touch one weapon that you are proficient with and that lacks the two-handed property. When you attack with that weapon, you can use your Charisma modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity, for the attack and damage rolls. This benefit lasts until you finish a long rest. If you later gain the Pact of the Blade feature, this benefit extends to every pact weapon you conjure with that feature, no matter the weapon's type.

Pact of the Blade
You can use your action to create a pact weapon in your empty hand. You can choose the form that this melee weapon takes each time you create it. You are proficient with it while you wield it. This weapon counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming Resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Your pact weapon disappears if it is more than 5 feet away from you for 1 minute or more. It also disappears if you use this feature again, if you dismiss the weapon (no action required), or if you die.

You can transform one Magic Weapon into your pact weapon by performing a Special ritual while you hold the weapon. You perform the ritual over the course of 1 hour, which can be done during a Short Rest. You can then dismiss the weapon, shunting it into an extradimensional space, and it appears whenever you create your pact weapon thereafter. You can’t affect an artifact or a sentient weapon in this way. The weapon ceases being your pact weapon if you die, if you perform the 1-hour ritual on a different weapon, or if you use a 1-hour ritual to break your bond to it. The weapon appears at your feet if it is in the extradimensional space when the bond breaks.

Yes, the Hex Warrior features works with Pact of the Blade to give a charisma bonus on the created pact weapon. As a DM be conscious that it takes one action to create the pact weapon so it's not something most characters will want to do in combat since they will lose their action that round.

If you read carefully you can answer most questions. Let me edit out the unnecessary bits:

This tells you everything you need to know.

In short, Hex Warrior works with Pact of the Blade for one weapon per day. Because Hex Warrior only works once per day. But it doesn't work with a Greatsword or any other two-handed weapon.


Whenever you finish a long rest, you can touch one weapon that you are proficient with and that lacks the two-handed property. When you attack with that weapon,

Mmmmh, I guess you guys are right, the feature specifies it, and takes a full action to change a weapons type. I should be a decisive choice for the PC.
