How about this for an idea to nerf the Warlocks.

The Warlock Arcade Game

The Idea

To nerf the warlock, however making playing one, and playing against one more fun.

The Idea was to change the actual chambers to little targets, shown in the picture. When a warlock hits the chamber button, a window pops up with an arcade game (like Shoot-the-duck) for both players. While this window is up, both players are immune to damage, buffs etc.

The idea of this window would be to have a series of two targets fly past (the Warlock gets to decide when they fly past and which direction), and the player which the chamber is directed against has to hit the target. If they hit the target in the centre, that spell is canceled. The distance they hit it to the middle is proportional to the amount of damage received. For example if the target was made to have a radius of 100pixils, and they hit it 50 pixels away from the centre, they are dealt 50% damage.

The idea of two targets was a target for each spell, giving chances to totally destroy the chamber if you hit both targets.

This will stop people whining about how Warlock chambers are overpowered, since the argument can be reversed into how unskilled the player is at hitting the arguments. The whole idea could end world-spread whine, poverty and perhaps bring a new life to the Warlock class.

So hows that for an idea?

How about another mini arcade game about playing mini arcade games where you get the chance to win a mini arcade game?

you know what i think,

reduce the DPS of a WL by 25% than, if the lock has 1 chamber make it at 125% of the spells in it, 2 chambers 75% effectiveness of the spells and with 3+ chambers 50% effectiveness of chambered spells.

make the chamber dumping at least 5 seconds apart, and if the lock is attacked it cannot use any chambers for 2 seconds.

and thats just for the chambers, the line with the primers in it needs a good looking into.

Free moc3, they need QC like normal casters and uninteruptable removed all together.

How about.

Warlocks have a 100% chance to insta-die if they fire more than 1 chamber within a certain timeframe, say every 10 minutes?.

Edit: Make that any spell at all.

Why not just take away the things such as spreads and self power regen etc?

or take away stead cast and replace it with something that has a 50% chance to be interupted.

Warlocks are in serious danger of killing this game.
I have this mental image where Warlocks are keep defending and they just load chambers ...... strafe out..... dump chambers...... cry "BOOM HEADSHOT"....strafe back under cover and sit and tell their moms how l337 they are while masturbating furiously.
They then reload their chambers and rinse and repeat.
All the while thinking they have l337 skillzors abilities.
Wait ... thats not a mental image ..... thats the way this game is.

How about Mythic just rename some characters.

Bonedancers could be called "Easy Mode"
Vamps could be called "TiTs"
And Warlocks could be called "Yup ... Mythic gave the no brain OP class to Midgard again"

Little doubt that many Mid players will leap to the defence of Warlocks.

Just like when LA was eventually proved to be fucked Mythic will eventually nerf bat these redic toons back to the stone age.

However by then their may ONLY be MID toons.

But they will still cry foul cos another Mid class got nerfed.

DO WHAT I DID .......CANCEL YOUR SUBS UNTIL MYTHIC FIX THIS MASSIVE IMBALANCE.

There are other games out there guys.

This isn't a Warlock whine thread. Its a creative thread with an example how to nerf warlocks, yet making them still playable and even more fun to play!
