I'm honestly a bit scared that bungie might listen to the wrong people. I don't like thunderstrike much either, it can be ridiculous. But that doesn't mean that warlocks should have our base melee messed around with. I've seen a few people complain about our melee range. At the moment, all classes have lunge to their melee in PvP. Here's the thing, these people say we should have our damage reduced or our melee slowed.
My issue with this is that if our melee damage is reduced what do we do when confronted with a super that's at half health? We die cause our damage can no longer kill them at that threshold. Of our melee is slowed too much, we stand much less of a chance in close combat against the other classes even with increased melee attack speed on armor (which not everyone runs for one reason or another).
If the problem is the abilities, I believe the only one that gives more than average range is thunderstrike and if that's the problem by all means, lessen the damage of that ability. But please don't screw with the default melee. That's a very slippery slope bungie and the last thing I want is for warlocks to be phased out because nobody wants to to play a character with that much of a disadvantage in the crucible. I realize Titans had the same problem with their melee but that has since been buffed. Please don't punish warlocks. Whatever you do, I beg you to please be careful
Edit: Thanks to everyone for the comments and feedback, I'm happy to see not everyone on the forums is completely heartless and short sighted.

2 AntwortenSure. There's a lunge for everyone else, but Warlock melee is still longer range than Hunter and Titans, if I'm not mistaken

23 AntwortenWarlock melee does the least damage already, I'm tired of getting criticaled by titans.

If they took thunderstrick i would espect lighting grenades and jug shield in return

Thunderstrike range < smoke grenade/ throwing knife range

3 Antwortenand there's another one saying "don't nerf OUR melee.. WE need the range.." dude you're not really a warlock.. this is just stupid.. go outside or something..

Give Warlocks better nades and they can reduce melee. In PVP, Warlock nades are crap.
-
The melee range is what makes us unique.

15 AntwortenBearbeitet von Hitmans_Creed: 11/16/2016 3:28:28 PMNerf the range of your melee n we'll be okay. That's way to far of a melee. Also axion bolt should only do 3/4 damage. No tracking grenade should almost kill you, this goes for hunters too.
-
Rather than taking away range like so many people keep asking, they could either give it a lunge (it actual does a lunge if you use it while airborne, so it's possibly easy to implement), or turn the charged melee into a projectile.

Bearbeitet von STARWoLF00: 11/17/2016 5:12:03 AMThis post is pointless and does nothing but stoke the Whiney flames and pitchforks that is this community. The other classes have bullshit abilities as well, and they can close distances to shotgun you much faster than a warlock. Get over it and stop making these posts ppl. Bungie isn't going to do anything.

Every class has their op part. I want them to slow down tracking on skips my warlock can only out run them if I don't get sprint locked

1 AntwortenI personally feel that warlocks are imbalanced. I dont however think that its because of the way they are in general, but because of how strong they are in destiny's current state. If the general damage dps done by weapons could just increase, warlocks will be put in line with ever other character. If that doesn't happen however, then a nerf to(as stated) the range or dmg or even cast time. The only class that feel broken that doesnt belong to warlocks is bladedance because of vows

11 AntwortenWarlocks dont have a lunge

35 AntwortenI agree with your points, which is why I think warlock melee range should be reduced. Not slowed, not decreased in damage, just all Melees should reach the same for a base melee. Warlocks essentially have the advantage in every shotgun cqc battle.
-
2 AntwortenI think Warlocks should get a shorter lung because they already have an extended melee. The perk that extends thunderstrike should get nerfed by 5-10%

I danced with a Warlock, but she got shot by another Warlock. I don't know anymore

Nope destroy every class

1 AntwortenDoubt they will get nerfed except for stormcaller melee range and maybe axion bolt buff.

1 AntwortenThunderstrike isn't your base melee it's, it's your charged one.
