Why are Warlocks a full generation behind in fun, interesting, active abilities?

From tossing bonkhammer to invis Truesight, Warlocks are now at such an enormous, obvious fun and function disadvantage it's getting embarrassing. Hunters have like [b]eight[/b](?) truly distinct melee abilities. Titans have nearly that many, and the differences for them are even more dramatic than Hunters', and theirs are serious [b]FREE[/b] movement tools toboot. Warlocks have a lame dash, castoff from Titans in D1, a poor performing dive ability with bad synergy and a fat cooldown.. [b]at the cost of our main contribution[/b]: little number puddles. Unless you happen to be running big number puddle. Don't forget the most exciting feature: unintelligent, tiny Arc shoulder numbers. Our melees can be described as short range color-matched blobs. No precision/skilled/reset/utility. [b]Literally none[/b]. With the exception of the Arc melee... with surrounding kit synergy so poor I'd bet a few fingers it's also a Titan castoff. From Devour to Cure to Ionic Traces, I'm glad other classes got access to some former identifying Warlock features. So where the hell is our interesting tools, utility, and identity? Where is it written Warlocks have to be boring?

  • Fireball melee is also unique to Warlock. They're also the fastest class in the game, even without glitch skating. Like I get that you clearly aren't excited about using a Warlock anymore, but they're far from boring or uselss or anything near that. Still have plenty of utility both in pve and pvp. Well is still one of the best PvE subclasses even after the nerf and Shadebinder, while not the best, is a very good pvp subclass. Does Warlock need some attention? Sure. Absoutely. They're not some subtier class though. All of ours have problems. And by all means, take your cure and your devour and your traces back lol. We don't need them.
