Ditch Fireborn, don't be scared.

This raid has made me positive on one thing. Self-Rez Warlocks are almost always the weak link in a fireteam. If you play like you always have a second chance, you play sloppy. You can't save yourself or make up for your bad, natural decisions when that super isn't charged. My clan raid group wasn't on last night so I spent 7 hours at Oryx with 4 different LFG fireteams making this decision. After seeing ___________ has self-resurected every round I think my theory is sound. Sunsinger is a crutch for the weak in this raid. #TitanMasterRace #HunterIsOk Edit : I keep hearing "Self-Rez is for those oh shit moments." Titans and hunters some how deal with oh shit moments not needing Self-Rez because we have learned to not get ourselves into those situations = better players. Edit 2 : As for the 2 grenades for ogres argument. One decent Titan with Blessing of Light and Touch of Malice can handle ogres by themselves. Highest level Titan should always be top platform on ogre duty. Edit 3 : I'm not saying a Warlock has never saved my ass before in a raid, they haven't in this one but past raids sure. My whole point is I believe Warlocks take unnecessary risks because they have that get out of jail card in their back pocket. Last edit then I'm done with this : Every Warlock argument starts with "WHEN I die...." case closed. OK OK OK I get it. Self-Rez is the best ever and the most valuable Sub-class Warlocks have. Sunsingers need to simmer down, quit getting so hot under the collar, any other solar pun I can think of, and realize this was an opinion based off of a horrible night of raiding with apparently the only Warlocks that play Destiny that Self-Rez every 5 seconds until they can't. #WarlockSuperAwesomeMasterRaceOfAllRacesPeriod!!!! Lastly, and everyone pay attention, JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE POSTS AN OPNION DOESN'T MAKE IT DESTINY LAW! There is something strange about the fact that people are trying desperately to prove their worth to, more than likely, myself or a bunch of people they don't know or will never raid with. Probably just a little hidden guilt and shame on Fireborn user's part. If someone posts that Defender bubble is useless in a raid, I keep scrolling because I understand fully that they are indeed an asshole. I hope Warlocks revive their body fluids when they Self-Rez because they are getting hella dehydrated from all the tears flowing. --------- FINAL EDIT ----------- By the way, my Ward of Dawn helps the entire team through the whole raid, not just myself when I die or that rare chance when the whole team dies and you finish a hard raid boss by yourself as it seems Warlocks do on an hourly basis. Contribute some orbs and clear some ADS you selfish, Self-Rez space bitches.

  • Lol #huntersareok best thing I heard so far this week. But yeah I do think a self res can be a little of a crutch to some players but sometimes there are those bad momments where I seen a self res save a fire team so I can't complain if they do it or not. To me it's those players that never know when to self res and always make the situation worse.

  • 2 grenades, 2 flameshield melees. Self res is there just in case, why would I play more sloppy and risk dying a preventable death and no longer have that back up for a little while?

  • Lol, I keep it just in case and I barely ever use it so I can "yolo" in to fix a teammate's mistake. Like in Oryx, a guy didn't detonate his bomb, so I went in for it after detonating mine and self rezzed after. Or in case I get teleported in the darkness dimension just as the shade slams (which happened to me once.)

  • Yep. Every warlock in our fireteam does at least once or twice. They usually play worse because they know they can self res, which is annoying for every one else because it usually throws the timing off when everyone sees someone went down.

  • Back in the day of VoG, I used self rez to prevent so many wipes it was ridiculous. Either you have a pretty good team that rarely wipes, or that one sunsinger truly was using it as a crutch. I love the subclass though, no need to diss it too much. It may save your raid team some day

  • I haven't touched my sunsinger subclass in a long time. I just enjoy the other two much more often.

  • I'll use sunsinger over stormcaller only if I'm doing something risky like brand holder on warpriest

  • If hear guardian down at oryx that is immediately led up with a self res I think that's the greatest feeling of relief ever.

  • I used Sunsinger for my one time doing the hard raid so far. I did have to use it a few times. I won't lie, but overall I find myself staying alive more often then not. Just gotta know when you should push and when to stay back. But now that I've done the entire raid on hard I'll probably switch back to Stormcaller.
