The warlock damage numbers for some abilities seems somewhat crazy, echoing strike seems to be able to hit upwards of a million, if you bind the right demon with the right auras.
I think its pretty much out of hand, and these numbers makes even P8 look like P1, that should not be the case - we currently dont have any classes that does P8 like a “breeze”, and neither should warlock.
So i really hope you tune down the damage numbers, otherwise there wouldnt be any reason to play anything else than warlock, we currently have so many classes that can barely do P3 on hell, even with BiS gear.
Other than that, i think the warlock is cool! and i love the new additions to the game, keep up the good work - but dont make D2 D3.

Well apparently not so.
The demons can legit tank pretty much anything in the game, while giving you auras to boost your damage by a good 50-80% with the right auras.

I get where you coming from. I don’t have the DLC (yet). Pondering about it over the weekend as I really love my mods, etc. To me I hope the developers will also nerf / rebalance the class and the whole game together.
The warlock looks really great and I am wondering what it will bring on the table with high-end gear, like Enigma, etc. I see a bit of all classes in the Warlock and it’s exciting, I think. Over the day or weeks the class will surely see some balancing.
That said power is good, but I don’t want D2 to only go up in power where everything and anything is melting and dropping like it’s nothing. I love my Nova Sorc and Javaon on P8, but it feels wrong too. We love power, but I think P1, perhaps P2 should be the max we should be aiming for, and rest of the P’s is reserved for grouping/online play.
Well, fingers crossed I will buy this expansion over the weekend cause everything looks good to me. Although I experience most of it from modifications to the game, but a new class.. That’s something else

Damage on warlock is too high and unsurvivable in pvp as well.
what is the point of removing mosaic if this is going to go live?

yeah damage is absurd
even before you get a summon with amp or conviction… or lister the tormentor.. or fangskin in act 2.

Are there any videos you can show me that show this? I hear people say stuff like this, but then I am in games with people and I am doing the most damage and I am slower than any sorc i typically play.
No we don’t. Every character can easily finish the game in p8 with basic gear.
Some are faster than others, and I definitely agree the warlock can use some tweaks, but this game is pretty much figured out, all the classes are decent, especially with BiS gear.
Nonsense. Diablo 3 player detected do you even play Diablo 2?

he’s a phawkin SPY!
Stay vigilant. There are tons of paid actors all over this forum working to turn D2R into D3/D4
(i’m only half joking)
Honestly I always read these comments as sarcasm, cuz I’m a hopeful type of guy. But these days, you just never know. Some people seem to think D2 is a difficult game or something after all these years :P.
It’s really just a gambling sim, we need those RNG hits. Can you make it difficult by intentionally playing underused specs? sure, that’s half the brilliance of the game, but damn someone thinking you can’t beat the game on p3 with some classes is just insane to me after all the grinding I’ve done on weird offshoot specs to get through the game.
I don’t think you’ve beat the game yourself one single time.
I’m a pretty well known person on these forums, and on jsp.
You are insane if you think any class struggles to beat the game on p3. SSF pacifist 8p runs have been done with literally every class. This is not a difficult PvM game unless you intentionally gimp yourself with self imposed rules.
