Warlock is the weakest class ATM (PvP)

Now, before y'all start throwing flaming hammers at me, the Warlock really ain't as good as Nova Warp makes it seem. Start with melees: Warlock clearly melees the slowest out of all classes. Hell, I can throw a punch a solid 0.20 seconds (or more) before my enemy, and they'll have plenty of time to melee me twice and kill me. I lose every melee engagement to both Hunters and Titans. Yes, I'm aware Warlocks supposedly have longer melee range, but that just ain't true. Hunters and Titans, mostly Hunters, have INSANE melees. They can literally lock onto you from across the room and melee you. That's not a -blaming!- knife, [b]that's a spear right there.[/b] Supers are, however, a little more interesting. Now, I ain't saying Warlock supers are bad; even though they kind of are, but they just are not at all as powerful as other classses' supers. Now don't get the wrong idea, Nova Warp [b]slays,[/b] but one good super isn't enough to justify the other flaws of Warlocks. Dawnblade for starters; it runs out faster than you can say [i][b]shoulder charge,[/b][/i] and the damage is horrible. Not against ordinary guardians of course, except Titans with that darn One-Eyed Mask, that sucker takes [b]two blows[/b] to melt. Against other supers, One-Eyed Mask will seem like nothing. Takes a few solid direct hits to kill an enemy with a roaming super, ex Sunbreaker. Chaos Reach; boy oh boy. That super is [b]trash.[/b] Not only is there a [b]thicc[/b] Warlock and strong beam of light covering up the entire screen, making it [b]that[/b] much harder to aim, it also doesn't deal a whole lot of damage to your enemies. Ordinary guardians will gladly walk away with few scrathes after have been hit by it. The damage is just pure [b]awful.[/b] Nova Warp! (oh boy). So, like I said before, it's a great super, but what makes this and all the other supers combined so bad, is the damage resistance (or health increase). Shotgun to the face with followup melee and you're out, but if you're not the shotgun type (even though [i]everyone[/i] is..) don't worry, you and your buddy can kill any warlock supers pretty much by shooting him or her (or whatever you want to be, I ain't judging) with your pulse rifles or whatever for like 3 seconds and [b]BAM![/b] Warlock no more. Unlike Warlock supers, Titan and Hunters are practically impossible to kill in their super state. I guess it's understandable for a hunter to take less damage when throwing their blade barrage, but when they take a sniper bullet between their eyes, I expect them to not die [b]after[/b] they've thrown their knives. (Literally, I shoot them when they super, and then after they've thrown the knives, they die.) I don't even know if it's worth getting into Titan supers? I mean, they pretty much [b]can't[/b] die. And they have infinite shoulder charges. And infinite overshield. And titan skate. You know what, I'm going to save those issues for another post. But to me it's clear, that Warlock Supers, as well as playstyles, [i][b]aren't very good.[/b][/i]. It's a Titan era right know, but honestly, Warlock falls at the bottom of the Class list. Please Bungo, buff Warlocks, so that the true master race, once and for all, can triumph. Thank you. [i]*applause and shouting from the readers*[/i] [spoiler]I tried to be as comedic about it as I could, to minimize death threats. Hopefully it'll work somewhat[/spoiler]

  • Novawarp is 20% higher KD average than the median KD average. It is literally the strongest subclass since sunbreaker prenerf at taken king launch. Warlocks are not struggling. They are 27% higher than the lowest subclass, and 6% or .1 KD higher than the second highest sunclass. They are also currently the most popular subclass in PvP. Warlock is far and away the strongest Class in the game. I hope the nerfs are done well for Novawarp, and they unnerf Phoenix Dive. The only reason I decided to switch to Titan is because they nerfed Dawnblade. Dawnblade was my baby...
