The fact that this has been nerfed to where bosses can now just outdamage the healing effect is extremely stupid.
It’s a godd*mm S U P E R, an ultimate ability in a video game.
Ya know, something that is supposed to guarantee either high amounts of damage or absolute defence. But if said defence doesn’t even keep you alive for all that long during a boss, what’s the f*cking point in it even being in the game in the first place?

Warlock main here, well is still fine in pve. You can still outheal bosses, but not stupidly outheal a room of gm enemies. It's still a great aoe buff super for its short cd, lots of people forget u recharge well as soon as its deployment, by the end of the duration at least 1/4 of the super energy is back. Most importantly, we have a reason to play whatever we want and hop back anytime now.

4 RepliesI personally prefer using Song and I’m glad Warlocks now can put up massive damage and in multiple ways. It’s absurd that they reduced Warlock into backpacking for the other two classes. You’re a Hunter main not a Warlock main so your views on this are biased.

They did it so the Witness couldn't be cheesed by well and for no other reason

1 ReplyLooks like someone doesn’t like dpsing a boss without invincibility.

1 ReplyI’m glad it was nerf’d. The player shouldn’t just be able to take a bosses damage without consequences - especially in any endgame activities.

1 ReplySong of Flame gave me no reason to use Well again, even if it’s a Master Dungeon/GM Nightfall. It’s basically Warlock’s way of being a radiant gifting shield that lets you use your weapons at the same time and proc ignitions (literally, being able to solo a champ in a GM while being surrounded by ads and being shot at is very strong)

Im glad it's gone for most activities. It was a must play ever since and straight up boring. You just chill and mow down bosses. Song of Flame is a decent replace and Well was OP for nearly 6 years now. Give that super a break.

10 RepliesCreating Well of Radiance (in the first place) was the bad idea. Because every encounter has to be designed around it. It was inevitable that they were either going to have to break it, or remove it from the game. As a Warlock main I got sick of having my build dictated to me in every endgame activity.

Well can act like the pizza base by providing dr and some healing but you need to add toppings like rifts, turrets etc to make the pizza tasty.

Edited by cryptic_king_241: 8/30/2024 8:19:23 PMYou are aware it replaced the self-rez super from D1? I'm glad it's nerfed so I don't have to run it and can do something else. Does it need a change in strategy? Ya, nothing to whine about. They really only nerfed it for the Witness dps phase anyway.

1 ReplyIt's fine

As a warlock main, I’m glad it got nerfed so I now won’t be kicked from every FTF activity for not running it.

Personally as a Warlock main, I am so tired of Well of Radiance, that I am glad it is weak now. It does give a respectable amount of damage increase with a slight amount of healing, so it isn't useless. You just now need to be aware of your positioning, such as dropping it behind cover, even last year you couldn't drop it out in the open for most high end content.

It's fine now. Makes pve more engaging without having an invincibility puddle and will allow fights to be more dynamic.

Nerfs need to be reverted immediately

Frankly speaking, the fact that at any point we had an ability that let us out heal boss damage was a huge problem since it removed the threat from a lot of content and regulated an entire class to "just run Well". But that's just me.

Well is still the best super in the game with the only other contender being song of flame.
