Howdi y'all!
So, what gear would be the best for a warlock? Im thinking some kind of weapon with nice attack bonus (adds onto the ranged touch), shield leatherarmor and all stat boni on con and dex?
Is there a reason to go con and cha?
Thanks for the tips!

Typically a warlock wears chain shirt and a large shield. Now that +4 weapons are in the matrix, you might grab one of those.
For everything else, there's a few ways you can go. Con/Cha is a good route if you're planning on a blackguard dip, or for a Feylock to boost your spell DCs a bit. Con/Dex isn't really worthwhile unless you're trying something a bit janky (though I do love me some janky warlock builds, so I won't judge) since warlock AC is gonna be pretty terrible no matter what, and you don't really need Dex to hit things. Con/Uni save is also an option, if you want to give yourself some ridonk saves.
Of these, Con/Cha is probably the most common.

Mostly raising spell DCs. Warlock DCs are never gonna be super high (high 20s to low 30s at best), but if you're facing an enemy with a particularly low save, you might be able to get a disable in. It basically amounts to a small increase in offensive ability.
