Stop using other classes cds that you can use as well in your descriptions of mobility.
If your not hitting the lock the cd of port does not reduce, you know this because I have told you before many times. Direct Physical damage somehow doesn’t count mm hunter hits atm, so I would assume this is the same as all ranged physical hits.
If a lock is surviving things its usually because of the healer more then the lock themselves, which is why it seems terrible at low mmr and super amazing at higher mmr.
Shadow play loses when the spriest is trained not the lock isnt that crazy.
I can say the exact same thing about melee. Melee like to complain about how much they get kited but never talk about how when they connect caster die in 4 seconds without having to do anything.
This is why this topic is dumb to me. Melee and Casters have the tools they need. Figure it out
male elf warlock player that loses points at 14 and 1500
i’m not saying it to attack you, i’m just saying you should not find your own thoughts reliable enough to argue for them
the amount of things you’re doing wrong every 5, 10 , 15 seconds is too insurmountable for you to form a real opinion on how gameplay goes when it’s played even remotely close to it’s design intention
bruh you can cite rating all you want. Fact is despite whatever rating you have (I don’t care to look) you are here unhappy crying about the game on the forums. I’d rather be me than you.
fact is that you backpeddling around the map using your utility poorly and getting frustrated doesn’t shape the sort of world view you need to really understand how good/bad something is
you are in my thread unhappy crying about anyone thinking the tools you cannot imagine using to 4% of their potential are oppressive
Brother, I’m the baddest lock to ever pick up this game. People around the globe know who I am. You should take a minute to realize you are speaking to an absolute unit. Your lucky I’m in a good mood because next time I won’t be so gentle.
Your saying it’s 20 seconds. It’s 20 seconds cd if melee have 100% uptime on him, so. So if you have 100% uptime, is the lock not doing something wrong by just running into you again or you just connect that easy?
Also kind of hard to use hpala as a culprit, it’s obviously dummy proof but its dummy proof for everyone not just locks. Sac 1 min is the biggest yoke ever.
Lastly, destro is pretty balanced rn. Dmg wise, defensively (could argue it needs to be tankier and remove 20 second port, sure). Like, incinerate lets say 70k avg, can hit less can crit 100kish. Sburn, hits 50kish, conflag hits 50kish, also not insane dmg for instant casts. Like yes, 3 chaos bolts to the face is insane and can just win you the game but it should no? It’s pretty difficult to get 3 chaos bolts off in a row considering your the victim every game. I’d be fine with chaos bolt being a cd and hitting harder.
Also stop rating shaming everyone on the forums you look hella weird, these people are giving you an argument back not really trolling you, if they where trolling you or saying dumb stuff then ya, go for it. But people challenging you? It’s allowed, chill out kim jong remi.
Here’s an example where you still get 20 second port while having minimal to no uptime. Lock ports. Warrior leaps ontop of the lock. Hitting him for damage from either the leap itself or maybe 1 global of damage. Which procs impish, the lock then hugs pillar with it’s sb freedom keeping away from the warrior. Then towards the end of it they position near gate. The warrior reconnects procing impish once again. The lock gates away and once again runs around pillar making it difficult for the warrior to reconnect. At this point it’s been about 15 seconds if the warlock is really trying to line. The warrior reconnects procing impis yet again reducing the cd to 21 seconds while also preventing the warrior from having practically any real uptime.
Sounds like a boosted warrior to me. Super zug zug and like soda said, hitting another target is fine. Im not gonna peak against melee and i’ll run if they are using cd, so why bother? Let my sprint run out then come clap me again. Sure if I gate, you’ve got mobility to use because you’ve not just wasted it on chasing me pointlessly? Without cd, melee still shred locks, you can’t stand there and just sponge damage like a spriest.
So when exactly are you pressing port? When the warrior presses warbreaker right? Which is a debuff. So pretty much if the warrior doesn’t chase port their main offensive cd is just completely useless against the warlock every single time they press it.
But sure lets say we have them go to the other caster instead. They still need to use a mobility cd to get to that caster. Then when the lock comes back out if they want to reconnect to the lock they’d once again have to blow a mobility cd. And who’s to say this caster doesn’t also have ways to peel melee. It could be an ele with knock, forcing potentially a second cd. Mage just in general. Or sure it could be an sp, but hitting sp during a swap is just mitigated entirely by fade. And if you commit to the sp you then have a freecasting warlock who just wins the game.
I don’t think you realise how squishy lock is, even without the big cd’s you can still force port, defensives, etc. It’s not spriest it cannot stand there and get whacked.
ANDDDD, oh my god, if the ele does a good knock, or your team-mate peels for you and forces them to use mobility, absolutely wonderful team work. You trying to john wick an entire team or something? Team play is nice no?
