Locks feel outdated in pve

Honestly, people can complain all they want that warlocks are tanky this way or that, or that they can take a hit one way or another.
Let me break it to you: none of that matters. At all.
Locks are antiquated. They are one, if not the farthest, from being a modernized class. This idea of being a tank caster is dead. Why? Context. Today’s wow isnt 10yrs ago wow. Today its all about mobility. Locks cannot keep up nor are they equipped for modern day playstyles unless they are insanely tuned (demo), or carried by their tier set (demo, aff). They literally have parts of their toolkit (summon doomguard) that cant be used in certain elements of the game (pvp).
It doesnt matter how much health, how many defenses, how many tools you have because if you cant keep up with the heavy movement playstyle in today’s expectations, your garbo. Thats why demo sims insansely high but plays really freaking low.

M+ isn’t the actual game, M+ is just diablo rifts ported to wow and in a way that makes a lot of classes meaningless because mmos aren’t design for infinity scaling content. Only reason this type of content works in ARPGs is because you can blow up everything in one hit while teleporting all over the map.

For mmos, only meta classes will be picked
