Blizzard, just delete Demonic Gateway

it was bad enough having these abilities in the first place now they have 2 of each. My entire wow career has consisted of how to deal with melee in pvp, and once i find a solution Blizz turns around and gives melee more and take more from WARLOCKS not casters because mage is spolied af

you mean like soulshape?? like we had before? like how blizz kept all the best abilities for every class except warlock, they gave us soul rot and turned it into shadow so aff cant ever use it

Honestly it’s getting so old watching other classes (especially melee) continue to acquire more and more mobility while warlocks are stuck in MoP…

Gateway is essentially a 1.5 min blink that requires 2 GCDs to use AND can only be used where the gate is placed. Actually it’s not even a blink, it doesn’t remove any cc/slows/roots.

It’s held back by the fact that party members can use it. If it didn’t have that aspect it would be so underpowered it’d be laughable.

Thing is we had a heck of a lot more options in mop than the current warlock.

The devs little by little started stripping things away from the class.

Gateway also shouldn’t show your avatar flying through it, when you use it, gateway should be disappearing from one point and appearing on the other almost instantly.

You are assuming too much. He has a valid point. You seem to be wanting to shut down any conversation on the subject, which makes me question your motives.

The argument that it’s been that way for so long, why change it? is actually the perfect reason for looking into improving it. If it’s been that way for so long, then maybe it needs updating.

There was a buff in Torghast that allowed the Warlock to use Gateways more often, they could apply that talent to Warlocks only (much like how only Warlocks get demonic healthstones), except for PvP.

Depends on your definition of “improving.”
Updating by limiting it is not a gateway improvment in most conversations unless your motive is to limit it.

The class is slow so it appears unecessary.

You seem triggered by this. My question is why make an immobile class less mobile?

How is lowering the time to use for the warlock making the class less mobile?

I agree with the deletion of demonic gateway, burning rush and demonic circle as well.

Broken? That is opinion hence the word subjective.

Logic…

Removing the Y axis is a limitation of direction.

You are kidding right? Appears you are just arguing against basic facts.
If your stance is younever liked it the way it was that is fine but to actually ask this question “makes me question your motives here.”

Not making a whole lot of sense here. Just say you didn’t like it.

They made healthstone better for warlocks on themselves. They can do it for gate. The honor talent is a bit too weak imo.

Warlocks actually had more mobility in MoP. We’ve gone backwards

That’s true, we had casting while moving

Totally true, it also feels restrictive to use without SB, I get the idea that its a powerful mobility tools for the whole team not only yourself but now days everyone has so many stuff to fly around that they don’t even care about using warlocks gate, if u gonna keep it at least give it back charges that the warlock is able to use more often like 4 charges at 30-40 sec cd or just delete it and give us something else

In arena you absolutly can, and there are some really strong uses for it that most locks dont use in arena.
