Comment by SnakeFizzAbout damn time. Thank god.Comment by ScaryfoxI want to be glad they fixed a Worgen quest since one can only do Exile's Reach before the appeal wears off. (I would still pick that over Sunstrider Isle, though.) I'm curious if they fixed the lag because while it wasn't that bad, I've never had a starting area lag like that. That's even with the Forbidden Reaches.Comment by ChimairaPlagueDamn, they finally figured out that Warlocks had the most OP defensive ability for the entirety of Shadowlands.Comment by CrypticheadOh my god thank you Blizzard I seriously had doubts when you was nerfing classes that didn't need nerfing, but now that you've nerfed Warlocks Demonic Sac by 50%! My trust in you is restored, for you have outdone yourselves once again, I hope whoever is in control of Balancing is getting a pay rise after this one, the way you thought to yourselves, 'yes, warlocks demonic sac should be nerfed not the damage they are dealing + bugs right now' is honestly impressive, our little brains could never work out that this was the reason why Warlocks are so broken.

WELL DONE BLIZZARD! GOOD JOB!Comment by StahlitzThats a sad change. Being a super tanky caster has always been warlocks PvE trademark. They shouldve nerfed pact and their passive gains for PvP only imho.Comment by perfectclessTook them long enough. Having warlocks be unkillable raid bosses in pvp outhealing actual healers is not healthy for the game.Comment by warlocktanknoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.ooooooooooooooooooo.ooooooo.o.noComment by SebbyOh my god thank you Blizzard I seriously had doubts when you was nerfing classes that didn't need nerfing, but now that you've nerfed Warlocks Demonic Sac by 50%!

WELL DONE BLIZZARD! GOOD JOB!Comment by MacareeGood. Now nerf unstable affliction.Comment by 2350822This is a welcomed changed, at least from a Pre-Patch PVP standpoint. Zoning into a WSG with 4 of the 10 enemy players as Affliction Lock is... demoralizing to say the least, and an absolutely massacre at the worst.Comment by nyxzxzxzxOh my god thank you Blizzard I seriously had doubts when you was nerfing classes that didn't need nerfing, but now that you've nerfed Warlocks Demonic Sac by 50%!
