Went from hitting ~80-90 non crits (180k crits) last night in arena to 40k non crits today, all of this is with dark soul, on use, and dark intent buffed with the enemy debuffed with curse of elements.

Demo is dead (imo)

I had high hopes for 5.1 with even with the aura nerf but now I feel like warlocks are the worst they have ever been in any season to date.

sigh

idk what spec to play now

[Shadowtiger]

UH DK, affli lock, resto sham...

[Natokni]

About freaking time. Id prefer you guys to be underpowered for a bit than have to deal with demo's bullshit playstyle.

How many fkn games have we had where a demo has lost his healer or something only to say well fk it might as well pop my cd's and having your team drop.

[Magneta]

I'm partially glad it got nerfed because it was retarded instant cast burst and made for a really unfun playstyle. On the other hand though, locks no longer have a viable spec so..... yeah.....

[Breez]

Ok then, gotta play affliction now, jk i dont see myself being viable in arena anymore, unless i get carried by something retarded.

Surprised they nerfed dmg straight up(even though it needed it).. Demo wasn't really all that great post 5.1 anyway imo.. Sure you can rape the lower brackets, but once you're 2.3k+ it seemed pretty weak.

[Nadagast]

Good nerf, but I think Warlocks are now in the worst shape we've ever been in.  We're possibly the worst overall class right now?  Not sure if Rogues, DKs, or Monks are worse than us.

Might as well put a link to my thread about Warlock issues here: http://us.battle.net...opic/7273267997

Read it and reply if you want to--keep your replies civil please.

that's an expectable death of Warlocks. Demo WAS a stupid spec which was relying on Demon Soul way too much, but Affliction is even more retarded now and completely not worth playing. Game is horrible anyway though, so not a big loss really.

All three Warlock specs rely on Dark Soul way way too much.  It's the only time any of our three specs do any real, meaningful damage.

[Infernion]

The nerf was needed, and I wouldn't really mind it, if they would just make affliction playable..

[brosearch]

See ya demo retards!

yeah. Warlock pops Dark Soul first global and Dk uses Unholy Frenzy+Gargoyle and my whole team died through Spirit Link and Healing Tide. Everyone dropped to 10% at some point. Dk was spamming Blood Boil entire game. (Game lasted 2 minutes max)
..give competitive pvp back

Thank goodness. I really hate the idea of globalling.

[Wallirik]

have yet to test it out, but if this is true..
thank lord

[Coilla]

was about time, they should buff affli though and change the whole burst playstyle to something which is more enjoyable.

[Toxile]
