Its in their difficulty they chose to impose on the base, without majority consent to do so, which should really be the big deciding factor in what gets added and what doesn't, because its an MMO. Majority rule is the only successful way to keep it operational because of the overhead cost in this type of service. Warlock is my go to and the only way you have survivability is using Well, or using Stasis to freeze everything. Strand seems decent, but only with the Necro gloves. Without them it just doesn't cut it. Graviton is always a good choice for these, and can alleviate a good amount of trouble too. Enemies are too numerous and too strong in an activity thats basically all closed off, tiny rooms where you literally have no cover because everything is splash damage. So the only real option is healing. With ability nerfs, and energy nerfs when picking up Orbs, its just a miserable experience overall. If I'm getting swarmed constantly, then I better be able to spam abilities, but we can't. This is the problem with the game in general, so much of it is so ridiculously overzealous in things almost nobody asked for, that it fundamentally ruins the experience. I refuse to do that activity with any class beyond Solar, and I hate it. These just keep physically shrinking every season too. I love the Solar subclass, it is functionally the best for Warlock, with being able to shot and glide, and heal. Solar ignition spread is solid, especially being matched up with anything Incandescent. What I don't love, is doing any endgame activity or literally anything beyond base activities, I feel required to run Well, with zero exceptions, and its the only class anyone wants Warlock to run in any group activity. It just feels like being locked out of everything else. Why have all my other subclasses if the only viable one anyone, including myself sees, for any given activity is Well of Radiance?

I see wide range of classes.

Strand warlock Vexcalibur and Karstein grips survivability is off the scale, bud. Run whatever you like in the other slots. Makes a nice change from being that well guy. That's how i done my solo run. ; )

My arc warlock

Hunter with lucky pants and titan with severance enclosure make this activity a breeze

BoW titan and well lock are meta af in coil

Banner of war Titan and Sunbracer warlocks are the typical builds I see. They’re the cookie cutter YouTube builds (no hate just very vanilla). They’re simple and allow you to spam either abilities or melees - perfect for people who want to relax and not worry about aiming.

I’d think that has everything to do with the artifact and it being the best support super. I’ve even taken old armor out of my vault for my triple 100 build with resilience, recovery and intellect. Coupled with Phoenix protocol I’m dropping Wells constantly. Bask in those Wells man. Although running Sunbreaker or Verity’s is fun too.

I see a good mix of everything, i personally play solar hunter with shards of g. Haven't failed a T4 yet unless i happen to join random MM and join in the middle.
