Neverwinter Tier List Series Of Bugs

Enhanced by the Mod 19 changes to the Double Scorch feat, SS is worth using often seeing as well also be using the Soul Spark Recovery feat to reduce our cooldowns by 3 seconds every time we cast it.

Neverwinter Tier List Series Of Bugs

A series of bugs affecting overall class stability, as well as a lack of the ability to be competitive with the old burst meta of the pre-mod 16 era left the class trailing in the overall DPS chart.

The post mod 16 Warlock has had its ups and downs as well, from the Hellfire Expertise damage buff being removed to an overall buff of magnitudes in mod 18.

However, mod 19 has brought with it some pleasant buffs bringing us much closer to the devs baseline damage dealer, the Assassin (Rogue).

There is still some work to be done, but I believe a lot of us are going to be very happy with the direction that the Hellbringer is currently headed in.We even have two seperate single target setups to suit all your dungeon and playstyle needs.

This is something to work towards, notable mentions and alternatives will be made for midgame Warlocks.

Below are two acts logs with two different builds without belt items (Horns, Forgers Box etc) activated whilst using the ZARIEL BUILD detailed below, with 525k hp and all appropriate stats capped.The ALTERNATIVE build can be used with Vorpal as I know this will be very important for some Warlocks.

If you can hit these numbers on a port dummy you can do the damage to compete and its only mechanics holding you back.

These were the average logs, they fluctuated between 427k and 469k encdps, these were all done in 5 minute parses.

The 3 extra Hit Points will be handy for Zariel, but not an absolute must have.

Each point in Dexterity will give you 0.5 Critical Severity and 0.25 Movement Speed, whilst each point in Intelligence will give you 0.25 Magical Damage Boost and 0.5 Control Bonus.

Warlocks apply Curse via encounter powers that have no curse synergy or curse consume effect.

You can also slot the All Consuming Curse class feature which applies lesser curse through at will usage.

Curse has an 8 second duration in which it deals damage to any enemy afflicted by it and accounts for around 10 of our damage.

It also makes us immune to control effects whilst shadow slipping.

Its great for avoiding large red areas, or just to activate any time an enemy uses a control effect.

We were able to use Shadow Slip to cancel animations in the past, which led to the devs putting the casting of powers higher on the instruction priority list.

This has become something of a problem for our dodge feature in combination with long power animations.

Want to dodge that incoming stun Tough, because youve got to finish that animation first and take the hit.

Warlocks have a few powers that can summon a Soul Puppet: Hadars Grasp, Killing Flames (has to be a killing blow) and Accursed Souls.

Mod 19 has brought a further change boosting how we use it in Single Target (ST) Scenarios.

Nonetheless, the encounter damage buff we get from Risky Investment is too good to pass up, so low puppet damage and stupidity are just the price we pay for better DPS.

Soul Sparks offer a passive damage buff of 0.25 per spark, increasing our damage by 7.5 when full.

This is the first of two buffs that we will need to manage in order to maximise our damage.

Outside of combat, we consume our Soul Sparks, healing us for 0.5 of our hit points per spark.
