    Warlock is the 3rd worst class atm, pretty much all other caster, except possibly moonkin, is superior.

    While I am inclined to think you#re doing it wrong I have to wholeheartedly agree with the notion of nerfing warlocks. It's wednesday after all.

    I just think their burst needs to be toned down slightly.

    dropping below 20% vs warlocks and warriors means instant death.

    and yes, i do know BM got a lot of burst, but nothing near 280k in a 0,5 second cast followed by an instant cast. noone can react to that, especialy not while in a fear, trying to claim otherwise just makes you look stupid.
    Actually its a 3 second cast followed by an instant cast if you're under 20% health.. sure.. nerf the burst, but only if there's an equal raise in sustained damage. Honestly i think you're exaggerating a bit, unless he had zerking he's not hitting you for 280k in one shot..

    Where are you pulling these figures from? What is this 0.5 second cast you speak of? Oh thats right, it doesn't exist. You got hit by a proc followed by and instant at best.

    Unless you can provide some sort of proof of these figures, you don't have any credibility.

    So what if it was 225K? Shadowburn is only available when the victim is under 20% health, so if he downs your health by that much, you should die.

Warlocks are superior to elemental shaman in every single way.
    If you cant take a lock with an ele shaman you need to l2p! Tremor totem, purge, nuke VS fear doesnt work, dots get purged, ramp-up to dots that got purged unless Lock got a UA up? Pfft...

    No lock that isn't touched loses to an ele shaman. You must stand there and let him free cast on you with ascendance.

    Yeah, 4 second silence. It's really gonna hurt a warlock, who can tank like a bawss and then heal himself like a bawss as well.
    Locks aren't mages, that you can faceroll in a silence as a hunter. Your silence does nothing, merely prolongs the inevitable.

    As a Mistweaver Monk (in PVP), if I see a Warlock they are my prime concern over any other class. If I determine they're Demonologist, I stun and move on. If they're Affliction I ignore them completely because it's really funny if they try and dot me up. If I determine it's a Destruction lock then he's all that matters. I'm in partial conquest gear and have my four-set. I almost can't out-heal his damage if he's aiming at anyone but me.

    This is assume that there's at least one other person on his team actively fighting myself or the group I'm standing there in.

    Now, if you're BM. A silence then a stampede should be all it takes to ruin any Warlock's day. Assuming you have those lined up in time.

    Jade Serpent Statue: "The statue will also begin casting Soothing Mist on your target. healing for 50% as much as yours. "
    [What's half of minor?]
    "Statue casts Soothing Mist at a nearby ally for toddler healing."

    Warlocks don't have much use of a pvp trinket vs. a hunter, so it's pretty easy to just use the trinket on the silence if that silence is coupled with stampede. So much for your tactic.

    A small edited screenshot of a log doesn't really say anything. What it does say is that you only had 17k health left and were being attacked by multiple enemies which were applying at least one debuff since Shattering Throw reduces armor as well as removes invulnerabilities. Anyone could have killed you at that point and over kill is exactly that overkill.

    Maybe it is overpowered for it to do that much under perfect circumstances. But they are exactly that perfect circumstances. If you let a nuclear bomb launch you can't complain that they it hit you for so much when you could have stopped it.

    Let's be honest here. Unless you're a warrior/dk, you are bound to have your hands full with a lock (destro or demo, ofc).

    Just deal with them or move on. Every classes has their own fix on the way.

    Warlock has to hard cast most of his dmg, hunter has tons of ways to avoid getting hit. As a hunter you should be killing warlocks easier than mages.

    There, fixed that for you
    Spriests are the bane of my existence atm, everyone else? Aside from spriest and a good dk, not so much worry, usually I play with them until they burst, then pop defensives and Archimond's vengence. In D.A.
    Anyways, guess I got it from years of tanking, or maybe it's that I am a sadist, I enjoy watching ppl pop cd's and burst, only to kill themselves, since my HP is usually much higher and I self heal, while I damage them and they damage themselves.
    Not to mention a few weeks of payback for years of knockbacks and mind controls off cliffs lol

    A spell that hits very hard on targets below 20% hp hmmm, we need a way to execute people, no?
    If you get that low, you are dead anyway unless you have a healer or cooldowns...
