Warlock overhaul

Greetings,

there are lately some discussions about the current Warlock path on Alpha. At one point, in the last weeks, I had… …a flash of inspiration. You can call it a “Moment” of pure knowledge and genius. I have a great idea how to perfect the Warlock. It may seme a little odd, but stay here and read to the end.

At first: Remove everything. Every spell, every talent, every cast. Except of course (for the class tree side), Demonic Gateway, Create Healthstone, Soulstone and Ritual of Summoning, we still need some raid utility. On the spec tree side, we keep Shadowbolt. No, wait. Don’t rage. Hear me out. It is amazing, you will see. For this one spell we have one talent called “BeSt fIlLeR oF aLl tImE”, you can put 30 talent points into this talent and every time the damage of Shadowbolt gets boosted by 1,2%. There it is. Perfection. Peak class fantasy. This makes every Warlock happy. You can have this for Demonology (purple bolt), Affliction (green bolt) and Destruction (red bolt).

Lastly: I have some ideas about the new T-Set, too.

2-Piece: Your Shadowbolt glows a little bit more purple.

4-Piece: If your Shadowbolt hits more than one target it makes a funny sound.

Obviously, nothing that was said was meant to be taken seriously. I hate the path Warlock is going down since 10.0. The complete obliteration of the Dogs and Core procs, as well as the removal of Avatar of Destruction was the peak for me. I really hope the Devs responsible for this mess, take a “MOMENT” to consider what the players want. I hate this kind of feedback, but its proven many times: The Devs don’t listen and don’t give anything about players opinions. They don’t even talk to us.

I guess the only “Moments” you have in The War Within are:

  1. When you don’t get declined for the 99th time in row, because your class is garbage.

  2. When you see your Warlock on your Character Selection Screen and get a nostalgic flashback, before you login one your Shadow Priest.

Bye

Dont forget about our class tree capstones! We need a new capstone that screams peak warlock fantasy.

Soul Conduit: Once in a blue moon, Shadowbolt does a bit more damage.

For each soul shard spent, your shadow bolt generates 1 less shard.
