I like to compare the three classes we have to understand what they did: For the Titan we have a very high dps output if we combine barrier+rockets+crash+cuirass. For Hunter we can go with rockets+golden+celestial or something with stareater. Warlock so far was grenades+demo_rocket+special+starfire+the right rotation to not -blam!- up dps. If we only look at burst damage against champions or similar trash mobs.. sure a starfire warlock can generate a lot of dmg with a rift and a bit of special But if we compare total actions for all the other classes its noticable that a warlock needs more than just one button to activate a super. So what good dps options are we left with.. maybe sunbracer and blops. That said i never understood why a nova is one of the weakest supers in the game .. it doesnt take much to look up what a nova actually is.
