In the base game, Pact of the Chain and Pact of the Tome feel much worse than Pact of the Blade. This mod improves the viability of the other pacts in the following ways. It also adds some other Warlock tweaks I like to play with.

Tome

Pact of the Tome
-Cantrips unlocked changed to shillelagh, guidance, thorn whip


Deepened Pact
-No longer grants single use spells.
-Grants an additional warlock spell slot. 
-Call Lightning and Lightning Bolt are added to your spell book and can be cast with warlock spell slots


Book of Ancient Secrets (Invocation)
-No longer unlocks single use spells.
-Adds your charisma modifier to damage dealt by non-cantrip spells you cast.
Chain

Pact of the Chain

-Claws changed from slashing to bludgeoning damage, so they are useful against undead that are vulnerable to bludgeoning damage. This way claws and sting are both situationally useful.
-Summoning your imp is a ritual and not limited to once per short rest
-Imp familiar now scales with your level starting at level 5. See details below:

Fiend
Level 6


Fiend Fire: New Passive
-When you deal fire damage with a spell, the target must succeed a dexterity saving throw or start burning with magical fire for 2 turns.
-Burning enemies take damage = to the warlocks Charisma Modifier at the start of each of their turns.
General Warlock Changes

Hex (Valdacil's version from  
Valdacil's Spell Adjustments)
-Works the same as Valdacil's version with improved animations, VFX and localization.
-Hex is now a free action that costs a warlock spell slot and grants you a status until the day ends or you die. While you have the status you can Hex foes using a bonus action as many times as you would like without using a spell slot.
-All Hex's are combined, so Hexing a foe gives them disadvantage on all ability checks.



Witch Bolt Rework (inspired by Lumaterian)
-Now is multi target (similar to scorching ray)
-No longer uses concentration
-Fires 2 bolts that deal 1d8 each and links you to each target hit.
-Upcasting adds an addition bolt per level and increases the damage dealt to linked targets by 1d4 per level.
-Enemies hit by witchbolt will be linked to you for 10 turns. Once per turn as a free action you can deal 1d4 lightning damage (per spell level) to all enemies linked to you. This is a ranged spell attack roll (chance to hit will appear low, but should be correct if you look at the log.
-The link is no longer removed when you miss.


Mystic Arcanum Rework (Inspired by Lumaterian)
-Once per short rest cooldown
-No longer requires you to choose one spell on level up.
-Allows you to cast one of the following level 6 spells without using a spell slot:
-Disintegrate (range increased to 60ft)
-Frozen Sphere
-Circle of Death
-Harm
-Heal
-Arcane Gate
-Blade Barrier
-Wall of Ice
-Wall of Thorns

I did not include summons, CC or long term buffs (like heroes feast). I also did not include chain lighting (because it's usually always the best choice) or some other spell I think are useless (water walk). The idea is to give you an incentive to use some level 6 damage spells you don't usually get to try out.
