Why warlocks aren't the best.

Personally I play a warlock character and I only ever will because I love how it's versatile and the magic aspect appeals to me as it has in every game. I'm not saying it's the best but I'm here to state the facts. This is about supers because each class has a grenade that does the same thing as every other class and sub abilities are another story. Warlocks super: nova bomb. What it does: it blows up things in a certain radius. Things you can do to change how your super works. -Increase explosion size(so small it doesn't really matter) -Create a damaging void field usually kills unsuspecting victims walking through but only lasts a short time -Have the bomb travel straight or curve down(this only effects your play style not really how effective the bomb is) -Split into three smaller bombs that go out in all directions(this is pretty useless in the crucible because most maps are small and close quarters so the extra bombs end up hitting walls or doors, you can always get lucky or plan the perfect hit though) -And lastly the most useless perk of all, have the Nova bomb track enemies, this is useless because tracking enemies in the crucible is terrible unless you have the aggressive tracking on the truth rocket launcher. Plus the Nova bomb is big and bulky and most crucible maps are small so any enemy can easily outrun this tracking bomb, plus it would only track one enemy and who wants to waste a super on one enemy? Pros to the super: -Your able to sustain almost another full bars worth of health in damage while the super is active. -The super can be throw from far away into spots enemies may be, meaning you don't have to risk your life. -The super can be used mid air keeping you away from enemy fire and grenades temporarily. Cons to the super: -The Nova bomb damages your own character by a lot if your close to something or someone, and you can usually kill yourself if you have sustained a certain amount of damage. I hope this can be removed from the game. -The Nova bombs functionality is bad, say you go into a room with four guys, one guy runs at you while you've thrown the Nova bomb, he takes the hit and the other 3 guys live. My suggestion for a fix, add in an option to have a delayed explosion for the bomb, and maybe even an accelerated one, imagine you run in and you are the Nova bomb(but you don't get damaged). That would be nice. -Tracking with the bomb is bad we need aggressive tracking. -If your moving, at all in any direction, then when you activate Nova bomb it will make your character continue to move in that direction while in the air, this can be a flaw because trying to Nova bomb someone and then your character floats into a wall or behind cover or just away from the target you were trying to hit. No exotic gear really helps fix any of the problems or improve the good things, only one which makes you tougher while using the Nova bomb, and this is pointless when the damage you sustain from the Nova bomb would just kill you anyways. Let's look quick at AOE supers now for the Titan, his fists of havoc make him way stronger while using it. The super can kill you even if your not on the same level of it (you can be killed through objects) I have been using warlocks jetpack at maximum height and avoided nova bomb blasts on the ground but fist of havoc kills you in the air. The fist of havoc when activated in a room will thrust the Titan in to the middle of everyone meaning it maximizes its AOE. The fist of havoc also leaves an electric fields which damages you, and/or it also can in addition to its AOE create a shockwave which travels straight killing everything in its path. And fist of havoc doesn't damage the Titan. It can be used in the air and can make the Titan a kamikaze plane. Destroying everyone from above unsuspectingly because the titan has the highest jump distance meaning he could be up in the sky and you wouldn't know. These are just the facts of a Titans AOE special I'm not saying anything but the facts make this special seem better than a warlocks. Warlock super: Radiance. What it does? When active it reduces your cools down and makes your abilities better for the time it is active.Things you can do to change how your super works. -increase duration -allow you to help cool down your team members abilities(which is maybe by 25% at most) -make yourself be able to sustain more damage -And the questionable perk revive yourself from the grave Pros to this super: -With many grenades you can, if good enough clear a whole room of enemies -your melee hits(the special one not just your regular)Insta kill people and also give you a shield. -anyone killed in this form grants orbs of light for your team wether with guns or grenades Cons to this super: -people will call you a flamer -your bright red wings make you the ultimate target, this SHOULD be removed. -while active your screen also turns red which can be distracting for some, this could be removed. - any ones super can kill you in one hit so only use radiance if you know your going to kill at least one person or it will be a huge waste this could be fixed by making it so energy not used in radiance was kept so you get your radiance super back faster. Questionable perk of radiance -self revive, this is questionable because the flaw with self revive is that anyone looking at you while you are doing it, will be able to kill you, meaning you will have wasted it. This is because there is a long animation for reviving yourself. If you die and wait for enemies to focus on your team then self revive and kill them from behind it can be useful but even still, one guy with a shotgun, sniper, or fusion rifle, can effectively end your self revive before it has even begun. So radiance is not the best and not the worst but it has some flaws, it's like a mix between defender and gunslinger. Except defenders in their bubble are nearly invincible, and gunslingers can one shot anything from a long distance away, if your not close quarters with radiance its pretty much useless. Now to address the cheap aspects of each class everyone hates. From a warlocks view: -melee range is really far and they get an over shield when they melee, but Titans can kill you in one melee hit while running, and hunters throwing knife hits you from a lot farther and can kill you in one hit if it's a headshot plus somehow it lights you on fire? Each class has the one hit grenade warlock and Titan has a magnetic type grenade but the hunters trip mine is defiantly the cheapest one. It has the most blast radius and activated nearly instantly. Plus it's annoying how both your teams and the enemies grenades look the same. These are all the facts comment what you think!

  • You have some delusional theories on how the other classes work. Use a hunter for a little while, then see how much better life as a warlock is

      • Fyi, if you use shatter and tracking the bombs can track separate enemies. And I've never had my nova bomb damage me

          I love all three, and love how all characters can be customised. I love how they play and how playstyle can change with combined certain weapons with exotics. The only gripe I have is the missing node for the other special which will be out with comet I guess. I also love to experiment with different exotics with there perk trees and make up some unique styles. Heart Praxic fire with sola grenade and burn, running with fatebringer and maxed dragons breath. Obsidian mind, shatter,bloom and the perk that increases explosion. Running with bad ju ju. Ahmakara helmet with siphon perk tree setup up running with suros or red death. There's so much more and I love it, and I have ever more enjoyment out of the other characters looking at exotic set up to skill trees styles. Playing fast aggressive predator style with universal remote and invisibility blade dancer with don't touch me, blade invisi, crouch invisi, high armor high strength high jump. is very entertaining especially with some cool special weapon set ups and heavys combined. You should really make all three characters and enjoy the game for what it has to offer. Your missing out. My titan is my favourite but I would just bang on about sone of the unique set ups for him.
