Low HP, Low Defense.

DOT's dont work unless your alive.
If a cleric uses holy spell which reduced all curse effects, your curses are useless.


That's dubious. If a Warrior casts absorb or def thingies on lock, nothing will kill it. You can't bash a build, just because others could kill it, with help.

Not if you play smart use vampire touch and stun. Any pure int Euro will die in a few hits if they don't do anything.

DoT's also work if you or your opponent is in the safe zone.

Just as full time Clerics are a minority so are Warlocks. Holy Spell is nothing to worry about considering most won't get it. Even so, I think Panic still works and I know stun is still effective.

I have a warlock. I know what it's capable of. Much higher level than 68 also.

Absorb what? It does damage reflection. You need to take damage to reflect damage. And even then its 35% probability. Everything is by chance. Even level 8 sleep/stun is not 100% effective.

Europeans work better in party play. Your better off supporting someone in a job war or something.

Right. when will you guys ever learn. PvP is about MAX HP & Defense.
Your defense with bless will only be 1500+ or so. Your HP is still the same. You can use 1 potion in the time it will take for you to die lol. I think you should actually build char character, play the character and then be disappointed with your theories.

Vampire Touch does not kill anyone (unless they are like level 30). Dusk armor absolute damage is fixed. Trap damage is fixed. You can only have 2 DOT skills on a person at each time which will also not kill anyone.

Wait, who the hell are you to tell me when to pvp or not?

I do perfectly fine with no blues on my gear and no +'s. I kill most if not all 64-70's ... generally cause they have no clue wtf to do with 2 rows of unknown skills next to their name.

Please Pred, just cause you made some shitty 7X warlock, don't mean you speak for us all.

Thats just your opinion.

Which def? Mag or phy? At my current level I got 5k hp. Plenty to kill anyone my level and survive critical hits.

Thats why you use Vampire Touch. Theories? I'm speaking from experience.

Its obvious you have that must do high damage in one hit mentality. Dusk Armor + DoT + Nuke + Panic is enough to bring down any build.

You can put more than 2 DoT skills on a person. I've done it before.

Hmm? If you're referring to me, I didn't say that. I said I wouldn't pvp if my HP was that low...

lol. The level is not that important. All you have to know is that it's above 72.

I stopped playing it because I got bored of playing support. The only characters I could ever kill is pure INT's 70 and below. With zero effort. Being in the PvP area annoying the crap out of other players with disease and other curses didnt work out too well. Warlocks are KoS<~ kill on sight.

Everyone can kill you in pvp if you do not
A: Block
B: Stun
C: Sleep

Reliance on skills to save you is a big nono. Just like how most Chinese characters rely on Snow shield.

Trap damage is fixed.
Dusk armor damage is fixed.

Try using vampiric touch. You'll just get hit. Your hp regen is too slow, and your hp is too low.

5K hp? lol that's a joke.

You cannot survive any type of critical attack.
My rogue will hit you for 30k-50k
You cannot survive combo attacks. Or multiple hits with chances to critical.

I see warlock mainly as a great support char, so if you want a char just for pvp, don' t play warlock. It' s that simple :roll:

Just what I thought. You only care about big numbers. Besides, any Pure Int of any race has trouble against rogues. You're only a threat if you're invisible and sneak attack. If you're visible with Dagger Desperate or Crossbow Extreme, you're dead. Its even easier if you don't have them activated. I'm also not a person with the all about me mentality. Even if I die, as long as you have a few debuffs on you or you wasted a few seconds to take me out, my effort was worth it.
