When the hell do you people realize that numbers are not the main fun factor?
My damage output is result of painfuly boring and idiotic ramp up preparation?

Demonology warlock - anatomy of failure

Put main burst capabilities on the shoulders of NPC that we can’t control was the worst thing that could happend…well not really the worst but a really bad move from gameplay designers.

Demon requires too much preparation to be viable.

Non Demonic consumption build and demonic consumption build requires too many time to provide somewhat decent damage output. It needs at least 2-3 stacks of x3 imps to deal decent damage.

You need to utilise demonic core procs in order to summon tyrant in time, while imps are still present on the battlefield. This requires you to summon dreadstalkers and wait 12 seconds until they will dissapear and give you two stacks of demonic core, or summon 2-3 wild imps with HoH (from 5.5 secons to 7.5 seconds of your time) and then sacrifice them with Power siphon talent, and only after that start preparation chain: gain x5 soulshards > HoH > Demonbolt > HoG > Demonbolt > HoG > Summon Demonic Tyrant. This is overcomplicated mechanic, that is too damn vulnerable to any CC, lose line of sight, interupts.

Tyrant is vulnerable to any CC.

Tyrant has 40 yd range of cast, that makes him vulnerable to any fast enemy who can just run away from demon in order to evade damage.

When he is summoned you have zero control over him.

You can’t switch his target if you need.

you can’t call him back to quickly flee the combat and leave combat state.

Do you think that this is fun? It is not!
I would rather do less damage, but have more pleasant damage dealing mechanics, and get rid off puppeteer design that doesn’t work at all.
Tell me have any of your spells has huge delays like this?

And all my demons has simmilar delays.
Or spells that just doesn’t work in some areas of the game?

Because of people whom scream that warlocks are fine because they do more damage then i, my class are ruined and cripled by freaking broken class design.
