Warlock Appreciation

Alright everyone, take a seat and listen to me for a sec, OK? OK. So the Warlock class I personally believe has not been given the attention it deserves. Most people lean over to the Hunter class because let's admit, we like looking good in capes. However, in Destiny 1 most players didn't pay Warlocks that much attention in PvE modes (A bit more in crucible although due to melee ranges, Flame Shield and Stormtrance) since they didn't do much compared to Titans Ward of Dawn with either blessing or weapons of light or the Hunters Tether. Rest assured though, although us Warlocks have lost our ability to self resurrect, our new abilities make up for it. Warlocks new "Rift" ability (arguably the best class ability) has now replaced the Titans Ward of Dawn abilities. So you're thinking "it's just a class ability" right? Now this is where things get a bit shaky but bear with me here. Warlocks have gotten new huge updates to our subclasses such as the Arc Soul or Feed the Void that make the Warlock play style a lot more aggressive and fun to play. Meanwhile this doesn't just apply to PvE modes because Warlocks are really good in Crucible too due to their abilities (don't even get me started on their supers). To wrap things up I suggest a lot more of you try out Destiny 2's Warlock because it's a lot better in comparison to Destiny 1. I'm not saying Warlocks are the best class or anything like that, what I'm trying to say is that Warlocks should be appreciated a bit more and some of you should really try out the Warlock because it's REALLY fun. Feel free to leave your thoughts below.

  • My main in D1 was warlock secondary Titan. In D2 having a lot of fun with my Titan. But yes I agree with a lot of what you're saying. Also, sometime I feel like warlocks fit a 'canon' character. In rise of iron Shiro and Ghosts dialogue about splicers and warlocks, where Shiro sounds kind of embarrassed about agreeing with ghosts about 'mad warlocks.' Not much, but felt like he didn't want to offend you as I happened to be a warlock at the time. Minute and open to interpretation of course. Ikora mentions in both games during the stormcaller stuff that she has nothing else to teach you. Asher Mir totally rips on zavala and Titans - that made my Titan really want to punch his face with a flaming fist. To add insult, my ghost didn't even acknowledge my being a Titan. In the EDZ where you ask devrim about a symbol on the wall he mentions that it's a symbol city hunters use to mark out special locations. If I was playing a hunter at the time I'd think hey...I'm a city hunter ...how come I don't know??? I'm also loving the class specific dialogue in the crucible. Heh not much, but figured I'd share these bits of thoughts with you all.
