It’s not a nerf if the game isn’t even out yet.

Maybe its the fact that I have played a druid before but this is not that big of a deal…
Powershift macro
Cast fear
Shift back.
Yes it leaves you vulnerable during that window but lets be real, it was WAY to good and meta locks are still going to be horrifically oppressive in pvp.
Also would like a fact check. Have not seen this from any “official” source.
I’m glad this change happen, its disgusting people trying to get some wicked advantage in pvp because they rely on cheesy powers instead of skill. Also to that one person asking about soul links and pets. You should be sacrificing your void walker for that passive health regen.
It’s more fair for sure, Druid can’t cast a lot
Of spells in form so warlock just got brought in line a little
Wut?
False, it would take an obscene amount of HP regen to outdo 30% damage reduction and either 60 resist all or 10% phys mit…

where are you getting these stats with the pet? Fel surge is you and your pet, you dont need the pet to have it. On top of that meta doesn’t do anything for your pet. Have you ever seen a void walker tank a raid boss? they get 2-3 shotted.
EDIT: Actually i see where you’re getting these now, my assumption was soul link worked like retail and there is another talent that affects warlock and pet. Why the hell is sacrifice demon a thing at this point?
The same unofficial source says the base mana cost is 100% to transform.
Guess we’ll know tomorrow
yah you wont be able to shift back and forth with impunity. but you will still get a few shifts before you oom… and with lifetap giving obscene amounts of mana back it might not matter
good maybe there will be less warlocks

They changed Meta to 100% base mana cost.
ok…
you will still be able to shift out, fear, shift back in… probably be able to do that twice before needing to lifetap.
Can’t cast fear. I am crying sooo haaarrrdddd right now.
Cant cast fear… in meta form…
They can still shift out and fear you, there is just risk now…
Kind of like druids having to shift out to root/heal/anything
Locks are still going to be insane lol the crying over this is honestly hilarious.

Dead game, RIP Gladiator
From the changes to mana it seems they don’t want Warlock to shift out fear and shift back in, especially in PvP, which like in the video sort of seems balanced.
I sort of agree with this, it’s not that we had this for a phase and then it changed, it’s more balance tuning before release, I’m still excited for Metamorphosis for PvE, but personally I think Affliction is going to be great fun in PvP.
Cannot wait to try both, heck even Destruction build looks fun too!
And so, only 8 classes remain.
warlocks will be fine. They can still shift out and fear and shift back in… probably 3-4 times before they need to lifetap.
Similar to druid there is some risk, and catching a warlock when it shifts out for a stun or what not actually gives classes some counterplay
No offense, but talk about a broken record. You’ve said the same thing 6 times in this thread.
We get it…you hate Locks and are trying to underplay this.
Im maining lock for SoD, I am not worried about it. Locks are still going to be insane.
