Well of Radiance and Ward of Dawn...

This topic will be a long one, I had this on my mind and wish to see something happen about these two supers. What's the problem? Throughout D2:Forsaken the Well of Radiance has dominated PvE in all matters and this super is just one other super (Ward of Dawn) but without it's crux. Which I can't help but think Titans are very envious over Warlocks with the fact they have a similar super but better. The Well of Radiance is so powerful that it near trivialises survivability, defence and offence. What do you want to happen? These supers need to be changed. They are too similar, making one of them nearly pointless to use and Ward of Dawn wasn't always like that, it needs more than just tweaks for the bubble shield. What Buffs for the WoD? For Ward of Dawn it needs all of the ' _ of light' buffs when entering the bubble (with Exotic armour providing those buffs of course) Wait 'Weapons of Light' for the Bubble shield? *D1 PvP flashbacks* As OP as D1 was with PvP I want the Ward of Dawn to be Balanced for PvP and PvE. So the bubble shield should have a limit. The answer: A ring outside of the bubble that will still provide you the buff when you are outside the bubble, but leave the ring and you lose the buff instantly which you need to re-enter the bubble to reclaim the buff. So if you want to be on the offence you will have to be vulnerable with that buff, simple, yes? What about Well of Radiance? ....I know some people will not like this, nerfing it will not be the solution.... Removing it is.... (PLEASE HEAR ME OUT) Why? We just can't have two supers doing the exact same thing with the other one taking a few steps. Titans have very little to no use in Endgame activities, where in D1 they did. Warlocks still have a lot of ways of buffing, healing themselves and others, so give the important utility to the Titans. What will the middle tree be then? Well, Hunters are agile and tricky, Titans are tanks and aggressive, and Warlocks are supportive and helpful. But we all can die from our enemies and right before they are about to wipe, a Warlock rises from the ground out of a blaze of Solar energy, reviving one-by-one of every fireteam member at a fast rate. The SUNSINGER is your middle tree. Sunsinger? wasn't it OP? I think how D2 is going right now, with roaming supers and OP builds, Sunsinger would be the weakest roaming super with the major gimmick is self-rez. I think the indication of a Sunsinger self-rez would be a solar sun over the dead Warlock. I can't really say this will go through for the Devs since there hands are tied with the future of D2 and we'll be stuck with this way of playing D2 for a long time. Its just that relying on one thing that does everything with little effort is too good and easy that it gets boring with no actual tension.

    Don’t remove Well of Radiance! Just remove the weapon buff and nerf Lunafactions. You’d be left with a powerful healing aura. There is no reason to completely remove the Super and replace it with Self-Rez (even I want it back, just as an exotic though). The fact that lunafactions give the Well instant reload, is breaking boss fights in every way possible! I suggest that the first perk on them be turned into: your rifts (not Well) gain the additional ability to automatically refill ability energy for you and allies that pass through it. Ward of Dawn: this thing has been a joke since it’s release in D2. Remember the video of Zavala actually holding Ward of Dawn as the Tower collapses? If you don’t here’s a Link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6f7eAutgmx4 . Why isn’t it like this, sacrifice your own functionality for the safety of others? This change is simple; hold (guard) to create a protective dome around you and your allies. Helm of Saint-14 is not supposed to be required for Blessing of light, it should just extend it! Give Ward of Dawn both Armor and Blessing of Light, with the added ability for allies to shoot out of it without having to reload. We don’t need it to have Weapons of Light back. We have many other ways of buffing our weapons damage output, we should utilize them more.
