Problems with Warlock - how it is worst class in pve classic sod - this is not a troll

WoW Classic Season of Discovery
1

I’m not gonna post any ideas. i’m just gonna get straight to the point. warlock has a-lot of issues. ill start per talent tree. and explain watch ones. then runes

dots on warlock aren’t even good in pvp. people dispel them and unstable affliction isn’t punishing enough

Affliction - Damage is so extremely and low and bad. that if took affliction warlock. to raid. and you did. you always under preform. cant muiti dot dont have any reasonable aoe. and cant even use any curses without cancelling other curses making more weaker curses completely useless. there are people like myself enjoy dot fantasy . not everyone wants be forced to play destruction to actually do some dps

don’t give me but we cant make both dps good. look at melee hunter top literally one of top dps. look at shadow-priest who does most damage over time - damage

Corruption - doing extremely low damage and not scaling properly being lowliest damaging dot in classic.

Curse of Agony - would be ok to use if it wasn’t a curse

Amplify - Is Utterly pointless ability. that is limited to 3 curses this ability could be used all your warlock abilities instead of 3 but lower its affectless by 25 from 50

Drain Soul - Drain soul should be afflictions equal to shadow bolt. however its one most annoying ability in whole warlock arsenal

we have other abilities that are awful. like mana drain. curse of weakness exhaustion and dark pact.

sorry blizzard changing gear in sunken temple isn’t gonna approve warlocks dps or fun factor of playing one. not so much as gear scaling that issue its spells it self that are garbage

you added a cast time to aoe fear. that most warlocks cant even get it casted out. gave is hit chance talent that only effects affliction spells

Demonology -

Its not fair what it is. you give hunter so many ways for there pets keep threat are voldwalker who doesn’t do any real damage with its auto attack cant even keep threat at max level with max rank torment. Ive lost all hope i thought thx this at phase 1 but this is same old problem

“Imp” being only good pet in classic go through dungeons. we don’t need 2-3 different pvps we need them to function probably not asking you make them super overpowered asking you let offer something this is classic + not classic

most soul shard spenders that warlock have been given are awful. dont really want understand why need kill someone to summon something that end up going berserk.

Inferno - this kind saddest ability again. i know what your gonna say its aoe stun. but here the thing its garbage

so many problems with warlock. that don’t know if giving us runes will fix . unless you completely revamp baseline abilities and talents

Warlocks runes were at most worst in game. Warlocks gear is still worst in the game. you have boomkins and shadow-priest out performing you.

But you have castable fear. (so what fear isn’t gonna do anything. this class meant help be good at solo not even capable doing that. all they do buff up already broken spec. that forces player destruction even more then original classic

now we have wait a month maybe longer we not gonna see any baliance patches to are class and wak weak runes

at this points like you were not even trying. not warlock is one lowiest dps currently in game with or withour ruin

2

You have an option to spec demo sacrifice/ruin and rox the dps metter with shadowbolt spam :smiley:

3

thats the point shadow bolt spam. wanted to do that would played normal classic

just cause vold can sarc doesnt mean it should be able to tank

I am not wrong stop trying defend bad game design

Shadow bolt that can get interupted when we are attacked. has long cast time of 2.5 that at lvl60 casters need 16% hit chance

by the way forgot mention warlocks get no hit chance support for destruction

watch also only does at most 900-1000 damage crit shadow bolts at 50

destruction has no solo potential at all. cant do anything without someone helpin you sorry that someone is your pet

thats not a skill issue thats just how class was design to be . large pack of trash in game that hates casters

4

I don’t know fella ,i rarely touch pve on my warlock,there is some logic in your arguments but until we have the final levels and runes , It’s quite hard to analyse / warlocks in pvp feel great btw /

5

I can tell you cause am highiest rank how good warlock can be
. Destruction : PvP F teir
. Demonology: B
. Affliction C

being dot dependiant means classes like paladin can dispell your dots. and battleground and pvp is overune with healers. so your dots cant combat vs healing done healing is too strong

what your vold walker does as threat generation really doesnt have anything to do with pvp baliance

where shadow priest/hunters are SSS+ tier in pvp cause shadow priest have black out. can stun can put endless mount shadow damage on you there kinda overtoned atm

however there dots are 10-100 times stronger then ours. even if we put shadow protection on fear when fighting pvp trinkets exist and dots break possessions and have 10 yrd more range with there spells then warlocks do with there dots. priest dont know 42-50 yrd dots

corruption does terrible damage. shadow word: pain best damage over time ability in game hits so hard

also need understand this

when molten core comes out in phase 4

Warlock tanking isnt happening cause fire immunities like hunters we also pay inventory tax do to soulstones

6

Hunters are easy pray for a warlock. Felhunter does a great job for traps dispell ,fel domination +void+ shield in emergency situations,heals, engineering and so on. Why SP bothers you? Probably the easiest class to play against ,i just keep curse of tongue on and self dispell on cd.

7

urm fel hunter doesn’t dispell traps my guy dont know where you got that from. they silence and eat buffs that are on you. but dont disarm traps. hit like wet noodle

you must be joking right . what you playing a melee hunter? my guy

hate it when you guys like you try make underpowered job sound more powerful then actually is watch clearly needs a buff some aspects try make it out as skill issues. when its not dont even get me started having to need give up a bag slot for soul bags or ammo pouches watch really is class punishing

having no love for the game supporting game design isnt gonna help warlock any

8

It dispells freezing trap as it’s a magical effect and yes warlocks are godlike class. Don’t make me think it’s a skill issue ,please

9

Nah, i know already, unless they make conflag unable to miss or proc the buff even when it misses, warlock will be dead in pve. And we all know blizzz wont ever buff warlocks so it is gg.

10

nothing godlike about it warlocks on dps meters are are very buttom this from most skilled players in world

11

I think it’s no longer considered as a magical effect.

Wait what ? Bad Boomer defected. Are you that guy from Nostalrius ? Ive just checked your forum profile

12

If warlock so post only pvp class then shouldnt been allowed to level one. period

13

I think affli is OP

14

Welcome to SoD caster gameplay…
Frost and fire mage basically only press one button: Frostfire Bolt. Every other spec underperforms heavily compared to the FFB specs.

15

As someone that plays a healer in PvP I can tell you Unstable Affliction is certainly not a joke. Even with the damage reduction aura the healing reduction is significant enough that people still die quickly.

Just the blanket silence you get from dispelling UA causes people to die because you can’t cast.

I see hordes of warlocks not taking UA seriously, and the fact that you get to play with the strongest PvP pet alongside UA, felhunter. You get to dispel yourself or others and an interrupt and you can see rogues easier.

I played my warlock at the start of P3 and I am still amazed to see so many Felguard warlocks… or even Metamorphosis for that matter in PvP.

I run it all the time in world but when it comes to BGs UA + Felhunter is the way to go

when you have to preface your thread with “this is not trolling” chances is you might want to reconsider posting in the first place.

dude your takes are the worst, and you spam like 5 thread of bad takes every day.
every.
single.
day.

if people want to engage your bad takes then no skin off my back, but god am i tired of seeing you everywhere.

like you latest literally not thought-through take of a blanket 2 minute silence immunity for warlock and paladin and shaman, like just stop.

18

warlock need so much hit to be playable that it’s not funny at all atm.

19

Sounds very familiar :thinking: :thinking: :thinking:

maybe its got something to do with having the word " milk " built into your names, never understood that, what’s everyone obsession with milk.

milk is healthy.
gives you strong bones.
proof: i’ve never broken a bone in my life.
