I am sorry but ritual of doom needs to be replaced with a warlock raid / dungeon wide buff just like mage / shaman / evoker / priest / warrior / monk / and others got their raid wide buff built into their classes.
Warlocks bring healthstones and gateways, both baked directly into the class. More than enough utility tbqh.
The warlock brings curses, that’s like a buff.
Regardless of if the class needs more utility, they should not take away funny player sacrifice roulette spell.
Yup, what everyone else said, Warlocks already have utility with the Healthstones and Portal.
They also have Summoning and if i recall a battle ress (idk havent played lock in a while)
Plus curses.
Why remove it when you could just ask for a raid / dungeon wide buff?
Sounds like you got picked as sacrifice and it wrinkled your sprinkles.
A good warlock brings everything mentioned above.
An even better Warlock brings pizza or a pick-up truck to take the raid for ice cream after, well, … the raid.
Warlocks bring an insane amount of raid synergy as it is, are you on crack? The fact that it doesn’t come in the form of a square next to your minimap doesn’t make it less powerful.
I must admit, I find RoD to be a rather weird spell and not something I’d be anxious to use. If they swapped it for an interrupt that wasn’t reliant on having a particular pet active, I wouldn’t say no.
As it is my warlocks are pretty powerful without ever using it so it tends to be forgotten. I imagine most classes have some ability or spell they hardly ever use. People hereabouts are always talking about ‘button bloat’ so I’ve assumed that. It’s probably one button I wouldn’t miss…
