You think Warlocks are Overpowering not really last night I gone to a raid with my Guild Justice and we fail and the there was big talk that started both in Vent and Raid chat about my DPS slacking and also jokes.I was frustrated I didn't want to disrespect anyone but the one of the Guild leader was being a real jerk. After the raid was over I gone online to Warlock Den Forms and found a interesting rant that was funny yet truthful.
Here was the Comment that person said.
"I'm sick of it. I'm sick of the jokes, the pokes, the threads, and the bandwagons. I'm sick of the conversations on vent, in guild chat, in raid chat, in every chat in the game. I want to play my priest, because its less, but then all I hear is 'if we had your OP 'lock you could solo this boss.'
Where did we go from free-HK to gods? Why does no one think that the class takes skill? Why does everyone assume I can deathcoil them into oblivion? Why the hell do bloodelf rogues still run from me?
I don't feel overpowered. I get ganked like everyone else, by rogues and hunters, by warriors and druids. I compete on the meters, not lead them. I don't survive more than 5 seconds in the arena bacause I'm the biggest threat, and the first focus-fire target. Why do they still complain?
But most importantly, how the hell do I get my damn guild to STFU about it? Guild chat, officer chat, my friends in game and irl. I rolled this character because the guild didn't have enough 'locks. I leveled to 60 so I could walk into MC the same night I dinged and help the raid. I don't top meters, I don't win duels, I spec for the good of the raid first and foremost. I am LITERALLY this |---| close to shelving my 'lock, and telling my guild to deal with life without a 'lock until they appreciate instead of mock. Is that what it's going to take? Is that the only way to make them realize? I'm sick and f*****g tired of hearing them *** about how we are OP, and then complain because we only have one geared for raids and how they want another.
Please, take away Fear, Felguards, and the Affliction tree. Leave us with healthstone, soulstones, an Imp, and a curse that increases all damage from non-warlock sources by 15%. Make our class entirely dependant on spirit. Reduce our HP by 50%. I don't care! Just make all the damn crying stop!"
I kind of agree with it yet people on the forms pointed out some other things as welll like for example that other classes can beat other classes,that the reason they call Warlocks overpowering is because Warlock player knows how to play the class and other classes complain to Blizzard to change it. That one spell called fear is a cheap spell to use yet for me I don't always use that spell at all because it doesn't always effect Warrors it doesn't mean I am going always use it, or get the chance which is what Warlocks only have by far in PVP and PVE.
Distuction Lock for example Shadobolt that does 2000 damage crits against someone only happens at random it doesn't mean I am going to one shot you with that damage while your still alive and people call it OP yet you can still damage me for more then that and I die easly depending on what spec I still take damage ether way but the person who wrote the rant made a good point and by saying it doesn't take skill to play the class which I wonder what are you thoughts on this?
