Warlocks the new changes!

[Boyardee-boulderfist]

I would main destro warlock asap if they made RoF into a self-aura like Starfall. Call it… Immolation Aura (I despise Demon Hunter class so much, they stole so much).

Well call it Demonic Aura or something else to avoid confusion.

[Akariliselle-cenarion-circle]

We had the AoE Hellfire spell for a while, which maybe they could call it Hellfire Aura or just Hellfire. It had a different mechanic, but at least there’s a potentially fitting name available.

[Boyardee-boulderfist]

Ohhhhh snap, that IS a good idea. A talent choice node for RoF to become Hellfire. That’s genius.

left fel lord pvp talent which sees almost 0 use

Fel lord is thematic af

And also it’s incredibly powerful in BGs

@Sniperlily-kiljaeden

They can bring back dark soul, covenant abilities like decimating bolt, etc. but they opt out to using 5% shard rng…

It’s intentional. They really don’t want throughput in the class tree.

I completely missed this change. The Hunter changes sort of cannibalized the patch notes for me.
I love this change, it’s the way all reticle spells should be. It worked out great with SPriests, I noticed Shaman Earthquake had a similar treatment too when playing it today.

They’re not going to be on the class side?

There’s about 10 or so talents in the warlock class tree that are just there as place holders. We don’t actually have an amazing last node ability. Soul conduit is at best 3rd or 2nd talent not even worth it’s placement where it’s currently at.

There’s so much potential for our class tree. They can bring back dark soul, covenant abilities like decimating bolt, etc. but they opt out to using 5% shard rng…

To be fair, Pact of Gluttony has to be one of the best capstone talents in the game.

@Akariliselle-cenarion-circle

but the current design of stacking RoF that we’ve had for a while really gets penalized if there’s any type of mob movement.

It hasn’t kept up with M+ design where we need to move move move move

I found it useful in towers in AV because its radius takes up the entire area and there is no place for the enemy to go.

[Hellbraive-queldorei]

This guy gets it.

Very strong and unique spell, just relatively niche.
