Warlock Wish List

I wanted to create this list to give the Devs an idea of what direction we want our class to be moving towards in future patches, and to keep a running tab on spells / talents / things that are not working / broken with our class.

Remember, you can sticky request this post by clicking on the red biohazard looking icon to the right, and then choosing sticky request from the menu.


*************************SPELLS************************************
********************

* Instant Corruption untalented. A warlock without pts in affliction has ONE instant cast DoT. For a spell type that can be dispelled, decursed, cleansed, mitigated, doesn't crit, takes a loooong time to deal it's damage, and can even be negated by someone eating while it's ticking AND as our primary source of DPS in PvP, this is unacceptable.

* Kill Stealing - Make dots tick as soon as we cast them to avoid people kill-stealing our mobs

* Self-banish- Grants immunity from damage, non-dispellable, unbreakable by the warlock!!, stops damage on all dots that are ticking until banish is over

* Shadow bolt volley

* Shadowblast - Instant-cast non-channelled shadow AOE

* Shadowburn - Shard cost removed, with an increase in cooldown time so that it can be used once per typical fight

* Death Coil - (talent, 2pts) Reduce cooldown by 30 seconds for each point invested, most feasible with a decrease in range. I think it's reasonable that since a rogue can use CloS about every fight, and we don't stand a chance against warrs without it, we should be able to use DC every fight.

* Spell Haste - make it work on DoTs

* Soul FIre - reduce or remove cooldown

* Shadow Ward for lvl 70



*************************DEMONS*********************************
**********************

* They need better overall scaling. Felguard is good imo, but the other demons could benefit from our resilience, they could use more hp, benefit from +hit/crit, etc.

* Enslave demon - pretty much broken. I would like to see a talent in the demo tree where we can enslave until the demon dies or we log out. It would be OP with elites, so maybe keep it as is for them.

* Doomguard and Infernal - upon watching the original Warcraft intro trailer, I was pumped about using the infernal. I don't even bother to buy the reagent anymore. This could go hand in hand with changing how enslave works. We should be able to use these demons for a longer period as they aren't 'elite' and we did have to go through a process (quests) to control these.

* NAMES - I have known people that have rerolled after lvl 20 or 30 because they hated their demon's name. Allow us to redo the demon quests or select a name from a list or something please!

* You have different skins for pretty much all our demons in the game already, can we please upgrade their look for the expansion?

* Equipable armor or weapons for our demons?

* Warlock epic flying mount ( fiery skeleton dragon is my preference)

* How about a spell that can protect our minions if they are going to be fragile? I suggest the exploding sacrifice. When we use the demonic sacrifice TALENT, our demon explodes with nether energy, hitting targets within range for different types of damage based on what demon is sacrificed.

* Seduce is clunky, can the AI be looked at on this? We basically need a macro to make this work right.


*************************************** ISSUES, IDEAS, MISCELLANEOUS ************************


* Soulshards - the gimmick is over.. do we really, truly need these?

* Demon form ( not just wing animation on T6 / S3 :P )

* more +hit / +crit in Destro tree

* New drain life animation

* GREEN FIRE




Maybe we need to be better at communicating to the devs what WE want to see from our class to make it more fun. Let me hear what you want!

Fighting a warlock is like arguing with a girl,

it hasn't started yet and you've already lost
