Is there any skillcap left in our beloved class?
Hey Guys,
I just wanted to hear your opinions on the matter: "Is there any skill left in our class in the current state?"
I know that many people allways said that warlock takes no skill and is just dot and fear but atm i came to that conclusion myself.
Warlock changed alot from cata to mop and you can argue days about if its easier or harder or what so ever.
But atm the diffrence between a 1,5k warlock and a 3k warlock is just the gear. The reason for that are some cruicial bugs in the class mechanics that made all the things that used to sepperate a good lock from a bad one non existent anymore.
I am talking mostly of the 2 following bugs:
-Spelllock from pet obviously! A good warlock had to propper position his pet to avoid it from dying and made sure your spelllocks hit. Also it was important that you dont stack it up for fears and prevent other ccs on it. But atm your pet is able to use spelllock across the whole map, through walls and while its cced. This literally kills half of the warlock skillcapped actions.
-Snapshotting: I dont know why this is bugged again. It used to work perfectly on mop but now its broken again. Making sure to have some free space before you popp your cooldowns to dot everyone and make use of your demonsoul....? NOPE. Just dot everything and then pop it AFTERWARDS.
This 2 bugs are killing 90% of the skill mechanics of warlocks and make it pretty hard to seperate yourself from other warlocks in this game. Suddenly people who never reached high rankings on warlocks are fighting for r1s. This is just demoralising.
Pair this with some buffstacking and totally working shamans and warriors and you see the whole picture.
What are your opinions on that matter.
Best regards Dogroth
