Really, guys? The best part about Demonology is machine gunning Demonbolts and summoning a legion of imps. Why is this a problem?

I liked Demo at the beginning of DF but their rework made it less fun and now this. I hope they’re planning on some major changes before TWW.

This is the opposite direction of what we want.

The warlock dev is frankly ruining the class.
Aside affliction i can’t say iv’e been having more fun with either destro or demo.
Demo rework after aberrus was awful.
They also ruined grand warlock design which especially for destro is a big deal.
They didn’t fix any of the actual problems, and gameplay areas that could have been improved for destro or demo.
What they did is basically “oh too many resources/demonbolts” Well we don’t like that, so here, you get 1 less dog, as well as less procs from other talents.
As for destro, channel demonfire still doesn’t generate soul shard fragments, gwd was ruined, and it should have been put into the class tree, soul fire cast time is WAY too long, frankly speaking it should be a proc ability, and be insta cast when you get it, with immolate reducing or resetting it’s cd generating 1 shard, cata is still a choice node with inferno, etc etc…
I don’t know what the dev is doing, but he or she only seem to be able to get affliction right when it comes to improvement, but affliction was the worst of the 3, so… The bar is lower.

I could accept toning down our ability to machine gun demon bolts if it wasn’t accompanied by another legion of lazy and Boring passive damage % increasing talents.
None of these talents interact with gameplay. I am not going to really notice anything.
Didn’t we just have this discussion with the devs during Aberrus?!

I miss shadowlands s3/4 warlock as a whole. Demo felt very nice in s1 on dragonflight aside nether portal.
Perfect starting point to make something truly great, and they blew it every step of the way.
It’s insane. It’s like missing the thing that stares at you every time.

I liked the s1 set that made hand more powerful and instant cast.
I miss Hounds of War. I wished they could have somehow tuned it better.
After looking at it, the changes are even worse than i originally thought.
Congratulations warlock devs, you outdid yourselves. But like, in all the wrong ways.
Embarrassing track record for destro/demo since aberrus, but especially demo.
There is nothing more to be said.
You look at mage, ww monk, enhance shaman, elemental even, and a couple others, and then you look at warlock, especially demo and destro… I don’t know what to say anymore.
So ill leave an elaborated comment on what i think about these changes.
This is pure and utter trash.

They heavily reduced our core production earlier in the expac, folded and reverted it partially, then reduced it even further in a future patch. They are reducing it yet again and implied in the notes that they may reduce it even further. The only other place to hit is the percent chance from imps or dogs.
This is a weird direction for the spec and the 30 second cd doom change is an odd take on what has been quite a popular tier set.
Nether Portal needed help and could’ve been great but they just decided to gut it’s interactions with the rest of the tree and then ultimately remove it.
Where is the feedback on these changes coming from?

I gotta admit I’m starting to get really tired of just seeing passives that do nothing for demos gameplay. Especially going into a new expansion I would of hope the DEV working on our class put more effort into it.
Again why is there an issue with demos resources when about half of the dps specs in this game, cap resources so much that just spam their dps abilities.

Doom implementation on PTR seems fine actually but looks pretty unfinished considering they slapped on the shards reducing doom duration part from the tier set while also adding a cooldown that makes it pointless. Placement of capstone talents is really rough as well with aoe builds being interested in basically everything at the bottom. Might be a bit bad to have the new doom competing with mark of shatug and guilliotine and pact of the imp mother and expendables.
edit: misread that the doomguard doesnt fire shadowbolt volley anymore lol lame
I want vilefiend to be made a choice between Felguard and vilefiend. So I can have a a new pet. Im tired of the felguard.
Or let me have both all the time for a small dmg reduction like Beast Mastery

They also removed the talent that when you cast Tyrant you get soulshards. So back to BFA pre season 1. Lol don’t these guys learn from past mistakes.

It’s maddening.
What they have done to demo/destro since aberrus should be criminal.
