Been running through the season with my typical BIS nova sorc.

Looking to start a warlock, haven’t played it yet. What build is more fun, not what is more powerful?

Have a few pieces already (eth archon, 4sk ariocs, 2/10 ammy) and can easily fill out the rest.

I’m seeing a lot of variance in weapon choices. Looks like eth archon obsession is BIS in fire, fort/ariocs/obsession bis in ES.

I don’t understand why eth obsession with no ED works in ES.

Anyways looking for crowd sourcing of whats more fun and whats the best options for gear to roll.

Echoing Strike Lock is the Warlock to roll I guess, lots of damage and the spell is cool, if weapon is indestructible the mirror blade attack looks cool and fun too, cleave it here and there, Bind a Cool Pet as a Tank with a GG act 2 Merc start Mfing All over b)

Cannot pvp with it though because it’s not fun to 1 hit pk or getting 1 hit pk. At least Some chars can take 2-3 Hammers from dueling Hammerdin.
