Spellcaster Warlock

First of all, I am a Titan main so this is not a post to praise Warlocks, but I noticed something recently... Warlocks are the only ones that do not have a weapon during their super. I was thinking that they could make a new class by harnessing the darkness (do not think of it as the yellow ring from Green Lantern lol) that all the foes in Destiny seem to come from which in turn would give the supers an endless supply of energy (ever notice the green aura on weapons such as Thorn and ToM?) which I'm not totally sure on a name yet (Toxic, Poison, Corrosive, Dark, Shadow, you get the idea) which brings me back to my main point, The spellcaster Warlock, he would float much like the storm caller but have a large mage staff and be able to shoot beams of dark energy from the staff. (Insert buffs or nerfs to size of beam, travel speed, etc) It would be so sick! Grenades could be spells like an entanglement curse (plantable like a trip mine) that would cause an enemy to be ensnared and move extremely slow for a short period of time and alert the user (a mini version of shadowshot without the crit. damage to target) a (throwable) hellfire hex with black fire (kind of like incendiary), and possibly, for the first time, a medic grenade such as a charm where you could stop all burns, blindness, etc on a teammate as well as protect them from a repeat encounter of such effects for a short period. Lastly, a new melee that would allow you to jinx the enemy to not be able to use any abilities or thrust jump (basically a melee version of the suppressor grenade). These are all just ideas, btw! Also, I'm planning ideas for a shadow ninja (hunter) and a dark soldier/warrior (Titan) let me know what you think! Also, excuse all the parentheses, they are just my way of adding footnotes. Appreciate feedback!

  • I like the idea, I mean I love necromancers and evil mages and stuff but i think i read somewhere that warlocks channel their light into energy and expell it rather then focus it into an object, for example void walkers channel there energy into their hands to expell a nova bomb, sunsingers and stormcallers channel energy throughout there body and expells an aura of kind. So while warlocks don't have a physical weapon, they become the weapon. I still love your idea though ^.^

      As far as warlocks go...I just don't like how stormcallers Lightning goes through walls...I've had so many stormcallers just zap me through the barrier I just jumped over and through the wall next to it that I ran around. I've even had a guy on fire base Delphi sit behind a pillar and proceed to kill my entire team through said pillar while nobody could even get an angle on him due to positioning.

      • I noticed that about how warlocks don't summon physical weapons. I like it. Makes it look like our light is more raw and pure.

          • Not to be an asshole, ( I love all my toons) but by your logic, neither do Hunters. Technically, your hands are the weapons. They are what's producing the lightning.

            • Was thinking of a necromancer for a dark style warlock. Would have the ability to rise a pet (either a caption, minotaur, or phalanx) from the dead to use for a 20 or 30 second super. Each pet would have their own abilities or attributes. Of course, a hunter could have a similar ability with animals. Don't know about Titans though.
