That is a great guide, and this was the important thing that you should have mentioned "based on full group and NOT solo as stipulated in first post by the Original poster!!! ... but, this is the crunch numbers for a simple GROUP Warlock:

--> Warlock

Warlock is hands down the best class for anything casting related in the game.
Depending on the event you may choose to start with 5-10 points into vitality, but especially for the group part it is not needed early on.

Whistle (Group)
With bad events you may choose to go up to 45-50 vitality from level 60 or higher.
The currently strongest combination is to go for multicast early on and bring it to 72% (level 25, 6 points). Then you want to bring up chaos to 49% (level 80, 11 points).

Explore (Group)
Depending on the objective of the climb and the group strength you may want to switch chaos for doublecast and powercast. In that case bring multicast and doublecast to 72% charge rate and powercast to around 40%. All remaining points can be evenly distributed between the three abilities

Solo
You want always to have doublecast as your first ability and the second one depends on your playstyle. It can be multicast, salvation or powercast. All are valid choices. The combination of doublecast and multicast is probably the strongest, but salvation is the safest.

Correct, so if someone adds a link, that is NOT baby sitting that person? I just simply copied / pasted what was initially asked and posted it from the guide without them going through the rest of the crap because the question was simple:

:lol: I have to admit, I definitely do what I do, even if it seems trivial to others, I do what I do for those that are different i.e. me being me and them being them. :P

Took a look at your toons and the highest you have is a MONK on SC. So, if solo'ing and using Robed characters, your vita should be around 100 BASE.

maybe on HC, on SC 60 is plenty if solo whistling, might want 75 if exploring, especially if you hit TD's.


Monk gets 90-100 vit because it isn't using a heal charm or at best is using salvation. Unless you are offcasting, where again 60-75 is plenty.
Warlock can just heal himself hence why less vit is needed.
