The new meta with warlock is now cast all dots, stand still and become immune to death?
What is that life gain? like lol
Can rogues get something similar? where everytime they hit backstab or sinister strike they gain like 10% life?

Easiest thing in the world for them to fix. They need to nerf that self heal by about 30% in pvp

Way more than 30%
Let’s not forget that warlocks don’t even have access to the busted talents like soul link and abilities like deathcoil that make them even more unkillable yet.
Warlocks are going to need MASSIVE nerfs as the phases progress
The big issue is they feel obligated to give every class cool things to make it feel fair and excited for everyone, but the things they are adding, particularly to warlock which is already godlike in classic pvp are just WAY too much, I don’t see how it’s possible for warlocks to be balanced in pvp without them massively nerfing things, including their baseline kit/talents.

I’m with you, I was def being conservative
Looks like the Un-skilled are Boo-Hooing strong here.
They call for Hunter Nerfs and got them. Anyone who isn’t them needs a Nerf.
Try looking into a Mirror.
It’s always the same with you people. Once the nerfs happen and you start the PVE aspect you cry there isn’t enough DPS to kill bosses.
/facepalm
Wtf are you even on about.
Classic with zero changes already allows you do do enough damage to completely ignore mechanics and faceroll most the bosses in the game
With SoD runes people are probably going to be doing 2-3x that damage
Damage in pve is not going to be an issue, people globalling each other in dungeon prebis at lvl 60 as if they’re AQ/naxx geared is

Its 15 healiing/second. Classes are doing well over 100 dps. Meta does no damage.
No skilled pvper is going meta except for dueling, haunt and cb are way better for group pvp.
lol yeah 15 healing a second, thats why warlocks are regenerating 50% of their HP in literally 2 seconds
Meta does PLENTY damage
Sure it doesn’t global people, but it does consistent and very threatening damage all while being like 5x tankier than anything else, they don’t have to kill you in 3 seconds when it takes like 30 seconds of wailing on them to even make them sweat
thats the healing from haunt, which cannot be used with meta. You’re just a clown who doesnt know what they’re talking about and sucks at pvp.

Anyone that tries to deny that warlocks aren’t the most broken class in pvp in SoD are either biased warlock players, trolls, or just genuinely idiots.
They are literal godmode
No they’re pretty mediocre in group pvp. They’re good at dueling, which they always have been. But most people on these forums are absolute scrubs who run around BGs mindlessly trying to duel people like bots.
We’ll see how “mediocre” warlocks will be in group pvp when they can play sm/ruin at lvl 60 and just slap on all the sustain runes to have the tankyness of a classic sl lock while also being able to global people
Fun fact, the life drain can be dispelled.

fun fact, 1 class in the game right now has access to dispel magic
Sm/ruin will probably only be a thing for av at 60, specifically because of sbolt volley.
None of the other runes really synergize well with it… Haunt is too dot focused for how much sm/ruin nukes, and chaos bolt is fire based.
Sbolt volley can work, but it’s gimping you in any situation where you aren’t cleaving, and sm/ruin is too meticulous/controlled a build to want multiple targets in nuking range unless in zerg pvp like av. In wsg/ab you want 1, and only 1 target in your 36 yard bubble, because that dude is about to get absolutely blasted and you don’t want anyone else potentially interfering.
Much more likely to see nf/conflag variants using chaos bolt into immo+conflag with grace with pure fire… Or full on destro lake/incinerate/chaos bolt fire builds.

And? People seem to forget this game has never and will never be “balanced” around 1v1. It can be dispelled. Thats a fact.
These people don’t think that deeply they just go in BGs and mindlessly run around spamming things hoping they get a crit.

Rogue players calling the kettle black.
Rogue 1v1 pvp was always lopsided to their advantage.
Now that there’s a competitor they feel threatened.

No, warlocks have always been the strongest 1v1, followed by frost mages. Rogues are a distant third. Warlocks and frost mages have won every classic dueling tournament. But 1v1 pvp is basically irrelevant to the game and it isn’t balanced around it.
