Warlock Q&A

Pattern said:
Im assuming you mean why 2 AGMs? Because destro is squishy as hell and Dr. ques alone or with me when Im alone a lot. He values the extra stam over the int (dude hits hard enough) and docent use the on use battle master loom trink because its less consistent and he values overall surv bonus over on use surv bonus

I solo que like 30% of the time and I wouldnt have a problem doing it all the time, I dont mind it. But yes I see where you are going and most people would rage alot and its probally also the reason you see the lack of locks in the bracket due to their lack of mobility and Survivability.

That being said I find warlocks to be the most entertaining class to play and of course playing with friends is always more fun than solo quing.

I wish you goodluck Hercules.

Bahaha Im so based mate my lord, Kiri basically already answered you but to add, running Undead gives you a get out of jail free for seduction fear sleep, and you can singe magic with your imp (assuming you can keep it alive). This lets you run 2 trinks of your choice, which should both be survivability increases (Double AGM, AGM BOA Battlemaster, etc etc)
 
I believe that at 20 you can reach higher stamina and sp (have to log my locks to compare later) due to gear and bg scaling. The only bad part at 20 is the fact you don't have acces to some crit gear you have at 24, the skills you miss out on at 20 can be missed.

There are also several different ways to gear, depending on the spec, level and play-style which also counts for the race to choose. Due to that I am not able to point out bis gear nor bis race unlike the destro lovers (destro=turret bursting {which all examples are based on in this thread, crit and dmg but have no survival just glasscannon when they really need more survival instead of burst which is high without being twinked} demo=survival/mobility AOE-slow {who needs damage increase through gear unlike destro but doesn't need to gear for survival cause of skills).

Just my 2 cents from soloing bg's on my 20 and 24 warlocks ;-)

I would like to ad to this how I really like haste (fear being a lifesaver). Also it scales better at 20 than at 24 as Leoseddap pointed out for other stats.
 
Would you do your succubus?
 
20 vs 24 - boils down to having more stam for the same sp. Sp stacking is around the same, 20 may have 1 more int available to them. You may lose a tiny bit of crit for reaching the same sp as a 24 lock. You obviously lose your aoe, but the survivability you gain may be worth it.

Demo (for me atleast) is the most engaging and enjoyable spec. It has the highest possible damage done and the burst isn't something to sleep on. Gearing, i would usually go for a decent amount of haste to hit first break point of guldan and corruption. sp chants to gloves and bracers, surefooted to boots. wep enchants i switch between black magic and ele force. This is for a few reasons, coordinating black magic procs for your burst periods is essential plus the haste makes ur fury generation 10x's better. When you switch out ele force, the proc rate % increases due to RPPM, so unequiping it for a few seconds will lead to the same amount of procs but more in a lower period of time ( more burst - same damage). SP scales decently well with some of your abilities but not good enough to over power ele force. Something to note is ele force procs are also increased in damage if ur in meta. Once you overlap guldans on multiple targets youll be pulling 400-500 dps. Plus don't forget all the fun jumps you can do with demonic leap.
 
go destro for 700 conflag crits to nuke players in 3 globals.

get level 21 or 24. You gain rain of fire. Its just THAT good. ( most OP/best AoE in the game,imo) Its your main defense vs stealthed rogues and ferals aside from stackign stamina so you dont die in like 3 globals.

Destro also has that mana regen by 625% and mana regen increased by haste so you can spam rain of fire unlike other specs that have to use lifetap

Dont listen to ppl saying go double haste trinket or double whatever. Get used to how squishy your cloth class is first, grab a insigina+ mark of tyranny( or AGM, mark has a lower CD tho) . As soon as rouge or eyepatch hunter open up you have to use that.

Sometimes you can swap insignia with any trinket you want if the enemy team is bad (and alot of times they will be) or doesnt have alot of rogues or hunters

Interesting theory, guess a lil test is in order, any1 know what max haste is for a 24 lock? With and Without glove and wrist enchants?
 
play affli or demo, it sucks but its a bit more fun imo


Gobby for the rocket jump....i hate goblin but its best against warriors and rogues.

If they bring back CoA, it would be funnier, and soul swap+pandemic for lols, I'd go aff full time :)

Is level 20 better for survival than 24?

Unless your goin f2p restricted, you want to be 21 min, and I don't think there is much difference in survivability anyway, with rogue and slam dmg, the miniscule difference in hp won be enough to make a difference, I'd think

Made that warlock yet? Those racial changes are getting closer. Pre-patch is only a few weeks away. You may want to take a look at WoD racials.
