Solasta Class and Subclass Tier Ranking
I had been considering monk vs ranger, since they fill much the same niche. DEX/WIS build that synnergizes great with the lowlife background for getting the thief skills. I made a post about it some time ago. My general assessment was that rangers typically came out better. (Though rangers have the option of going STR based for a less optimal build). Sylvan elf ranger or monk lowlife can cover most of the necessary WIS skills...

Shadowcasters: do they actually gain any spells that have attack rolls?
Shadowcasters get necromancy, so the following should work: Chill touch (Cantrip) Vampiric Touch (L3) That said, given Shadowcaster spell progression, they'll only get vampiric touch pretty late. Vampiric touch however, may be nice if the sneak attack stacks for lifedraining, so could provide a boosted healing, assuming it works that way. No options for L1 or L2 spells, though.

Pact of the Blade melee warlock viable?
How good are the spells you get later on? It doesn't seem like warlocks get a lot of casts and they'd need to short rest a lot. How does it hold up compared to say, a spellsword fighter? I suppose using a 2-hander instead of a shield helps solve the somatic component problem, so you can keep on eldritch blasts or other spells when needed. Less AC for sure, though. I generally prefer sword+Shield to...

Human characters
I do admit, I typically find sylvan elf with lowlife better for a ranger than a human. Human misses out on a lot of useful skills, better movement rate, and the stats on a Sylvan elf synnergize really well with a ranger, especially an archer. Just thinking out loud on the stat rolls with point buy: Human:12/16/16/10/14/9 Sylvan Elf: 12/16/14/8/16/8 You could swap the 16 CON to 16 WIS on the human while the elf...
