as a lover of summoner based/ pet classes I’ve tried to get into hunter over the years but just doesn’t do it for me but warlock has been so much fun and probably the only class ive played where ive found so much enjoyment in all 3 specs but one thing i personally like sticking to is having a pet by my side even if its a dps loss as that’s just what i like but the issue with the class is the you need to play fel guard as demo and kinda a choice between succubus or fel hunter for the other two and its kinda sad,
now even though they’ve updated with pet customization which i personally enjoyed hunting down the ones i want i still can feel its not enough like we need real options for personal identity and i dunno why they don’t give us a mechanic like hunters do to roam the lands and tame the ones we want, like all they gotta do is divide them up into sets to fill the roll like what hunters have with certain pets.
the true end game is customization so i dunno why they don’t give us this
Blizz has said since vanilla that hunters and warlocks function with pets the way they do so the classes feel different. It has to do with class fantasy. Hunters get the gotta catch em all mentality where warlocks make pacts with demons. Same reason you can’t rename demons.
That being said I hope they do a lot more with the barbershop options and give new models and colors to collect for all the demons.
convenient excuses lol, class fantasy would make it more so you can get more pets even the hero talents show that
If you’re playing anything but fel guard as demo you’re selling
I would love for warlocks to get a similar pet system to hunters, felguard is great and all but I would love to have a permanent vilefiend or doomguard.
Unfortunately though I do agree with the fact that it would make hunters lose out on its unique fantasy. Maybe if they expand on the fantasy of hunters beyond just taming stuff perhaps warlocks can benefit from the pet classes/customization to
…thats what i said ? lol
