I have 20 points left on my list I cant decide to give 2 of my blightlords blight launchers or add a chaos spawn. What would be better? If I take the greater havoc launcher off a doredeo I'd have 21 more points but probably dont wanna do that

It depends if you need a little more killing power or if the utilityof a distraction/screen/objective scorer is more worth it. It's hard to say without knowing the greater context.

Can we see your entire list?

A single spawn will only be good to hold an objective out of LOS. Beast of nurgle does better at that job for 10 points more if your list has a nurgle detachment.

Single spawns are good to fill out detachments for another CP. Or as little harassers in a cc-focused army where the enemy might ignore them (or not if they give him/her easy killpoints). Aside from these uses I'd suggest the blight launchers, they're one of the best weapons in the DG arsenal and never failed me. Throw in a warlord with arch contaminator and you can reroll all wounds for them.

This is my list

Two Blight Launchers aren't going to do much in that squad. I'm voting for Spawn simply because Spawn are decent.
