Ember of Torches nerf Hurts Warlock

Ember of Torches (a melee ability) is now decreasing Discipline (Grenade ability) HOW DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? Shouldnt it be -10 Strength instead? Cause you get Radiant from Melee attacks, Melee is Strength not Discipline

  • At this point, I hope they do nothing BUT nerf Warlocks. The biggest victim complex this game has EVER seen.

        • Everyone got hit. Stop being the whiny Warlock that always plays Victim. If it hurts you that much , swap to another class. You’ll find that the nerf hit hard there too

        • 1. It's not Warlock only 2. There's arms mods that counter that. Impact Induction and Momentum Transfer. Coincidentally, Impact Induction is a Solar Element mod that gives grenade energy on Melee hits, and Momentum Transfer is an Arc mod that gives Melee on Grenade hits.

        • Stop playing the victim and go revisit the various subclass fragments because there are a number of them that provide a plus or minus to a unrelated stat.

        • Probably because there are a lot of ways to gain melee energy through grenades. This is not an uncommon thing, plenty of fragments reduce stats not related to the thing they are buffing. Why are you overreacting?

        • This follows a similar idea to Whisper of Fractures in stasis, which gives a -10 Discipline in exchange for faster melee regen when surrounded. So, it’s not too surprising.

        • Bungie and logic is like oil and water .... Warlocks are dead, they just donnt know how to balance them and at this point, even if we get something good, there is like 20% warlocks left and the other 80% will cry for a nerf ...

          • I think it's because of us Titan's having an infinite melee they knew it wouldn't hurt us who gets the most effect from torches so they went for the grenade.
