Warlock mend pet?
Return to board index
Post by
Ragingtiger
Seeing how warlocks are becoming hunters in cloth in the xpac, shouldn't we get our own mend pet? Hunters use mend pet, just throw a hot on their pet and back to launching arrows. We have to channel it, therefore, we have to rely on the healers wasting mana on us, or us losing dps to keep our pet alive (if there's aoe attacks, which i hope there isn't.)
What do you guys think?

I don't see the simmalaritys at all between hunters and warlocks, other than we both use pets. This thread is stupid.

Clearly you've never played a Hunter.. or never played a Warlock. They're nothing similar in any sense. Nothing will or is changing that.
Pets
CC (that's always been there)
Simple gameplay (1 button, again, always been there)
Hunter's mark = Curse of elements?
So yeah, we're going to be running around in bows and sending our lions against people.
Are you serious?
Pets being buffed=Warlocks using them wayyyyyy more, turning us into another variation of a hunter, but instead of bows, we use spells, instead of traps, we have fears/banish, instead of mail, we wear cloth, instead of their pets, we have our pets.
Please explain some key differences, and not idiotic ones like "OMG THEY CAN TAME BEAsTS, NOOB>"
The running of the stereotypical cliche of a warlock being a hunter in cloth, I saw that as idiotic, then I saw the patch notes, and the new talent trees, and I noticed, we won't be saccing our pets anymore, it's more dps to have them out blasting along with us.....Like hunters...
And pets will become more durable in the xpac... You mean like hunter pets?
Rolling a hunter, it was pretty much very alike, aside from the skills, to my warlock when i first leveled him. When i got my void, he tanked, i threw spells. When i got my boar, he tanked, i shot arrows. I feared. I trapped. I used curse of elements. I used hunter mark.
Okay?
I'm just saying, speaking from someone not in beta, so I don't know how the pets fare in the xpac, this was just a suggestion; this was a suggestion that wanted feedback, not people thinking they are grand-master warlocks trying to show how better they are than others.

Warlocks aren't hunters and they will never be hunters. So don't ask idiotic questions and you won't get the nice lock population angry.

Alright, lol'd for quite a few reasons.
Gear:
5 blue gems for spell hit? Suppression much? Waste of gem slots. Get Veiled Noble Topaz if you have to gem hit; Highest DPS blue gem.
Pendant of conquest on an affliction lock? Get the haste one.
Speaking of Pendant of conquest; waaay too much crit. spec Destro with your gear or trade that crit in for spell power/hit/haste.
Spec:
2/2 Soul siphon? Drop one point and put it back into Imp. Drain Soul for threat reduction. Use shadow bolt when not applying dots. Soul Siphon is fail DPS.
Drop the points in CoEx and Shadow Embrace and Imp. Howl of Terror and spend them wisely in destro or demo tree or pick up Malediction if you are your raid's only affliction lock.
In the end, it will look something like this:

--->You don't need to be rocking T6 to know how to play your class right.

On the thought of warlocks being hunters in cloth, the only similar comparison being made are SOME parallels in the Demo and BM trees.(I mean the ones coming in wrath... there aren't any ATM.) Other than that, the play styles, itemization, etc. are completely different. The only comparison you could make is that they both have button rotations, and by that logic all classes are the same. WOOT I CAN PLAY A PALADIN!
Okay, my attempt at trying to let the topic die out is failing. People who look at gear and do a step by step analysis about the choices of gear are beyond retarded. You do realize you took about 15 minutes out of your day to try to prove a point, by checking my gear and criticizing me about it? Like, it never came to your mind that I raided alot, and then respecced from destro into my current spec for brewfest and running alts? No, all you can think of is how this person is a newblet for his gear and gem choices. Yeah, that's the best you can come up with. Yeah, just for you, I'll run some kara, get some better aff gear, so you won't make fun of me. Yeah, I'll do that just for you, sir.
And if you were wondering, yeah, this is my ebayed character, I have no idea how to play my lock, you know, that's why I'm in full pvp welfare blues. Yeah, that's the reason.
/sarcasm
At the topic, after all the idiots thinking "omgawsh ur hurtingz our feelingz by sayizng hunteorz r warlks nao" you're looking at this too deeply.
Hunters use pets. They throw a mend pet, and still shoot arrows.
Warlocks will now use pets more often, but have to health funnel, and waste some of their own health, and lose time to dps.
How fair is that?
