Any class with be top notch with end game gear... the OP'ness of warlock was you can run p8 with just insight and spirit shield, and enigma for mobility - and a crazy arse demon with instant amp and unkillable tank. Question is can you still do that?

Not the point of the thread, this is just a demonstration geared up without binded demon, trying to make it look as close as possible to the warlock we know. Also 75 fcr setup is pretty cheap, not even needed a 30 fcr meph book.

you know you can't use insight and spirit shield anymore, right? and he has no bound demon either.

Eh? Sure reads like that was your point - you said it "not that bad" with expensive gear. My point is warlock was insanely OP with budget gear. What you demonstrated is not the "warlock we know".




I was saying before patch/ptr we can and can still run p8 with budget gear - question is whether we still can after patch with alternate non-BIS gear.

ofc its not the warlock we know, thats why i said "as close as possible"

and if you think that is expensive... well, you will be having a harsh time next ladder if you want to play ES Warlock

Also, that is out of the question, you cant play p8 on budget gear. It is obvious.

is the nerf really that bad? idc about the book/shield thing. but if this thing cant solo p8s imma be pissed.

yeh, nerf is huge. Tested in tz also, not a problem neither, but stone skin t5 herald will definitely be.
