Upcoming Lock Changes

PVP Arenas
1

Just a few things that look cracked:

General:

  • Demonic Resilience – Reduces the chance you will be critically struck by 4%. All damage your primary demon takes is reduced by 15%.

Affliction:

  • Creeping Death no longer decreases the duration of your damage over time effects.

  • Soul-Eater’s Gluttony – Whenever Unstable Affliction deals damage, the cooldown of Soul Rot is reduced by 0.5/1.0 second.

Destro:

  • Backdraft now affects Soul Fire.

Demo:

  • Demonic Consumption has been removed and replaced with Reign of Tyranny.

  • Reign of Tyranny – Active Wild Imps grant 1 stack of Demonic Servitude. Active greater demons grant 2 stacks of Demonic Servitude. Demonic Tyrant deals 3% additional damage for each stack of Demonic Servitude active at the time of his summon.

How did you miss this completely broken little gem?

Fel Synergy – Soul Leech also heals you for 25% and your pet for 50% of the absorption it grants.

So not only is Soul Leech rewarding you with absorbs from doing damage, but it also passively heals on top of it… yeah that’s not broken at all :joy::joy::joy:

Read again, that Fel Synergy is currently part of soul link. They are removing it from soul link and putting it into a new node so that warlocks will have to invest 2 points for what used to be 1 point. So it’s a nerf

Ya this didn’t age well, nonsense post. Noticed he never came back, genius got demolished in his own thread lmao

I wish this was anything but the forums so I could be as toxic towards you as I want to be.

Locks straight up cry as much, if not more than rogues and mages when they get changes. I really couldn’t care what lock mains think about my posts on warlock changes. Watching them piss their pants about some random making a post about their forever F tier class is enjoyable

As a warlock main, i get a kick out of how much locks are hated on these boards.

So glad this change came in. Finally makes this talent option more competitive.

Now all they’d have to do is somehow make drain life healing builds obsolete.

because your class’ existence single handedly makes pvp less fun

arena is more fun in general when locks are weak and irrelevant

Weird take

This thread is so questionable. We have literally ZERO idea what DF damage/pacing looks like. Until we see that, talents are kinda pointless to speculate on, especially in the arena thread.

The only thing on the list to even bat an eye at is instant soulfires

Everything else is irrelevent and shows OP is kinda clueless. Like one listed change amounts to pretty much a tooltip change lol

Yeah no one has even played an arena match on alpha lol

Dnno how people can bother coming to these types of conclusions
