As of right now it is not possible to choose between using a warlock spellslot or for example sorcerer spellslot to use in casting. This disencourages multiclassing into warlock especially because for most spells and feautures the standard class spellslots are used before warlock spellslots (meaning the ones you don't regain on a shortrest). Even when clicking the warlock spellslot and clicking a spell or other ability it first utulises non-warlock spellslots if it isn't a warlock ability.

I don't know how easy or difficult this would be to implement but I believe the best way to change this would be for warlock spellslots to occupy their own subsection when selecting
a spell.
Perhaps having them be displayed either to the right or left to all your other spellslots, or have them be displayed below the appropriate spellslot of the level they are.

I hope this get's seen as there are obviously many posts on this board per day, but I think this would make a major improvement to warlock multiclassing.

If any devs and up seeing this, thanks for this amazing game :3

Thank you for raising this again. As you mentioned this is posted on the forum regularly. Here are a few other posts regarding the same thing:

When a character has non-Warlock spell slots of a equal or higher level to their Warlock spell slots, the ability to select which slots to use when casting spells or using reactions is completely broken. This prevents players from prioritizing their Warlock spell slots before resting and robs the Warlock class of a huge amount of its utility when multiclassing.

There's now been 5 major patches and 11 hotfixes and this has apparently gotten zero attention. I understand that there are a lot of things deserving of attention, and limited time, but as mentioned in another reporting of this issue:

Quote
This destroys very popular multiclassing options. [...] IE Sorcery Points from WL slots or pala smites from WL slots have been a 5e staple forever.

Please can we get some priority for this issue which fundamentally prevents people from playing BG3 in a manner consistent with the rules system on which it is based.
