Warlock self-res is a crutch for the weak.

Warlock self-res is a crutch for the weak. Seriously. What use is it outside of PvP? That's right - people who struggle to stay alive can have a second chance at dying again. Give me a Warlock whose build is based around staying alive any day of the week. A Warlock using self-res is basically waiting to die. They're holding the rest of the team back. They don't generate orbs unless they die. They don't activate supers unless they die. They're basically a drain on DPS and team strategy/cohesion. If you're a Warlock with self-res, [i]you're letting your team-mates down[/i]. When recruiting for Raids, I ask people if they use self-res and then turn them down if they say yes. I want my Warlocks to be team-players, not people concerned only about themselves. [spoiler]It's not really any use in PvP either.[/spoiler] Edit: apologies if I've stopped replying to someone in particular, this forum makes it impossible to look through everything and keep up with every conversation. Edit 2: Next week on Ackter Provokes: The Gjallarhorn and how if it was suddenly removed, 99% of players would no longer be able to beat anything!

  • It's definitely a crutch but it doesn't have to be just for the weak, in this case the word crutch is a bad example because even capable people can make good use of it. And any time there's a whole bunch of Orbs on the ground it only makes sense for a Warlock to use their super and generate some orbs of their own, any Warlock that doesn't do this isn't doing as much as they could/should. It's impossible to deny though that the power lends itself to people who die more, and so you're more likely to have people who suck be a Warlock than any other class.
