So why is it that other locks get to banish us in meta and on top of that they can subjugate demon on us for 5 minutes? I wanted to pvp as destro but blizz decided that warlocks dont deserve shadowfury which is what would make destro viable. I’ve tried pvping as destro and it’s impossible to get a cast off, even if I got one cast off it wouldn’t matter bc I have to cast incinerate to make it worth casting chaos bolt. It takes around 5 seconds of uninterrupted casting to make that happen and it still doesn’t guarantee the enemy dies. Shadow priests can global people with mind blast into s word: death. So back to my point. Why is the rune that should be most viable, able to be mind controlled for 5 minutes? And before you say “just cancel meta”, it costs 923 MANA!
You can MC others locks? That’s kinda funny tbh. Someone is probably gonna snag a meta lock and walk into UC now and release them.
I get the Subjugate Demon thing should probably get fixed even though it’s hilarious and has very very easy counterplay.
But Banish absolutely not.
Demon form makes you immune to many forms of CC, it only makes sense you’re susceptible to a couple more
There is no cc we are immune from…
Sleep? Polymorph?
Talking dungeons and PVP mind.
I decided to give you the benefit of the doubt and double check on my Warlock with my Mage friend.
“Invalid Target” for Polymorph
Sap also does not work.
Both of which are far more common than Banish. Warlocks in general are less common, and I’d bet half of the Warlocks don’t even know what Banish does.
Druids in form are also immune to these. But they are then susceptible to Hibernate and Scare Beast to balance. Both of which are again, more rare than Poly/Sap
Sap, sleep, poly
Wish I mained warlock subjugate on the meta lock noobs that waste a slot in bg’s sounds like so much fun.
Meta makes you immune to Repentance
Cuz you’re now considered a demon in meta form… I thought that part was obvious
Just like how shamans and druid can be hibernated/pet scare
Like are you really mad that there tech for demons?
Next
Yeah I am, but I’m just gonna keep abusing the mind control on other locks till they fix it.
So the ONLY counterplay to meta locks is another lock? You are unkillable… Guess we should focus our nerf calls on you next
A shadow priest should always win, so should a rogue. Boomies used to win but with the starsurge nerf probably not as much. Also arcane oneshot spec should win.
Pally also kills meta lock, I’ve not even needed to bubble yet verses those I fought.
I’ve not seen anyone have a huge problem with them tbh, it’s a PvE rune that people are trying to use to carry them over playing the better but harder to use warlock builds that bring more value to the team and themselves.
It’s kind of like Soul Link.
It’s a crutch. It’s good in duels, it just isn’t good in the grand scheme of PvP, especially when you consider group PvP.
When I first started playing Classic Warlock I played Soul Link with the blueberry.
Then i graduated from that and moved onto SM/Ruin with the felhunter and never looked back.
Haven’t really played SoD lock but I imagine it’s much of the same.
You wanted to be a demon. Now you get banished.
If you get enslaved just right click the meta icon to turn it off lmao
not intended for pvp, doubt any changes here
U can’t, u have 0 control over ur character.
one of the strongest PvP defensive abilities has a drawback?
Just drop demo form with a weakaura
