Shadowlands Warlock Class Feedback - Upcoming Destruction Talent Changes

posted 2020/07/15 at 3:05 PM by Neryssa

Blizzard

In the next build, we’ve made a few Destruction Warlock talent adjustments to address concerns with how the new talents are fitting into the rotation. While we’re not yet focused on making broad class tuning adjustments, we want to make sure these new talents are in a reasonable place for Beta.

Destruction

Talents

Soul Fire cooldown is now 45 seconds (was 1 minute) and now applies Immolate (was an instant Incinerate).
Internal Combustion reverted to consuming 5 seconds of Immolate (was 7 seconds).
Shadowburn reverted to 2 charges (was 1) and its cooldown is now also reduced by Haste.
Shadowburn Spell Power coefficient increased to 141% (was 130%).
Roaring Blaze lasts 8 seconds (was 6 seconds).
Rain of Chaos Infernals now always spawn where your first Infernal landed.

PvP Talents

Focused Chaos damage increase is now 40% (down from 65%).

Comment by NoxxieTVI like this alot :)Comment by DesdemoniqueThat's great and all, but could I please get my Beta invite now so as to actually be able to play arou- err, test out said changes? KkthxComment by lostsoupThat's great and all, but could I please get my Beta invite now so as to actually be able to play arou- err, test out said changes? KkthxComment by NatakutdhWhile I'd like more changes now... clarification that they are still working on them and they want this focused, it's great. Its understandable. It's what we need.Comment by Rogues2024Please release new/rework honor talents blizz. BfA destro was so boring to play in pvp this expansion compared to the variety of playstyles you had in legion with cremation and firestone as well as big bolts. Also change their mastery. Having versatility basically for mastery sucks for balance as it makes them tankier than tanks while still maintaining a one shot playstyle where literally nothing else mattered but chaos bolt.Comment by CrackbaconAgain nothing about hunters...Comment by couchpotato2013Put the focused chaos nerf in now.Comment by cokeboyswagI hate how they are waiting for shadowlands to make some very needed pvp changes at this moment (gpie cooldown, focused chaos talent nerfed). it's pathetic.Comment by DesdemoniqueThat's great and all, but could I please get my Beta invite now so as to actually be able to play arou- err, test out said changes?

Right now if you are not in pvp and doesn't have a infernal active, your chaos bolt damage is kind of sad.Comment by xeravMember back in the days when Warlocks had crazy good stuff but they it also had a price (like turning life into mana or other negativ effects). Now its just crazy goodComment by marelWill we finally have usable Soul Fire? o.OComment by lenastusMember back in the days when Warlocks had crazy good stuff but they it also had a price (like turning life into mana or other negativ effects).

How delusional I was xDComment by dralonisFor a second I thought they came to senses and decided to finally nerf destro locks in pvp.
