Why is nether portal left the way it is ? another full expansion with nether portal’s weird interaction when a simple fix could make it enjoyable to use?
make it spawn demons per shard spend not “every time any shard is spent” please!
shadowbolt > hand > shadowbolt > hand is the dumbest design and looks like a bug to be honest.

With pit lord buff & Grand warlock Design, zoo portal build is atm one of the best ST demo build & one of the best overall lock builds… is it perfect? Heck no lol, but really it’s like an added flair to demo to me at least, I get two big demons Tyrant & pit lord to center my dmg around, if timed right Pit Lord will do MASSIVE dmg
Yeah there is no excuse for NP existing the way it is mechanically, and it’s damage as a 3 minute cooldown is very poor.

in my post it being viable/strong was never mentioned.
my post is utterly about the feels of it and the bad play style it promotes.
just because it’s the best op damage spec doesn’t mean it’s fun to play.
It is fine to play and just because you can’t use it effectively does not make it ‘bad play style’.
this is highly subjective, majority of lock mains dislike the way it works, it sure does look like a bug, something is just wrong when using 3 shards and 1 shard results the same.
all it takes is searching “nether portal” up there to see the majority of not all the posts are negative surrounding nether portal.

What’s interesting is people keep acting as if the pit lord and NP are the same talent, when it’s actually 4.
I’d argue NP itself is very much undertuned as a 3 min cd itself, and it’s reliance on the 3 extra points to get pit lord to be good is actually bad design.
The most important thing IMO, while the damage is kinda booty, like you said in your post the most important issue is the rotation just feels bad.
Don’t let people gaslight you into thinking this 
Yeah well right back at you really, and so far as majority of lock mains disliking it because you say so doesn’t make it so.
simply search “nether portal” in forums. 90% of the posts about it dislike the way it plays, dont take my word for it just search the word “nether portal” up there.
sigh bud you can have 100% posts disliking something that still doesn’t quantify your opinion
It does show what he’s saying has reasonable founding.

it quantifies that the majority don’t like it, that’s why they speak out about it.
can’t reason someone out of something they didn’t use reason to believe in.

If I’m being honest, I think he’s never actually used the spell with the way he talks about it.
The fact that NP interacts so poorly with the spec as a whole is clear as day.

Forums are vastly in the majority always negative, and any number of postings can be made but by a small shrieking minority like yourself.
Anyway go ahead and keep posting negatives and hating on things the spell ain’t going anywhere xx
Really? So how about we be more specific and only acknowledge the posts by those who’ve learned the class in and out by assessing their logs, and progression.
Because the results will be the same, any lock who has actually done any sort of progression with the spec knows the talent is jank af.
Nobody wants the spell to disappear, they want it fixed.
Oh, and LFR heroes opinions don’t count.

Glad you agree boomer 
Are you intent on making yourself look like a low tier trash warlock in front of the forums? Because that’s where you’re at right now.

Get off your high horse, you’ll hurt your head. The problems with NP’s rotation has been pointed out by most warlocks (including those who stream, if you’d care to look) for a long time. Hope spring eternal that it will be changed in the near future.
Yeah …wait, what?!
