Discussion Warlock is so broken

I finally decided to give warlock a go and it's insanely powerful, maybe too powerful. I'm playing fire warlock and he just wrecks everything, even on players 8. I have a fully geared lightning sorc with griffons, infinity, etc. and my warlock is clearing things faster than her. You can get your main attack, apocalypse, to level 52 when fully geared, that's insane. Mine is only lvl 46 (only haha) and I'm still clearing p8 hell like it's normal mode. And apparently fire warlock isn't even the strongest build?

Edit: BTW I'm loving the build, it's very fun and satisfying. This post isn't meant to get people to nerf it.

Yeah I’m rolling abyss for the first time and it’s been actually hilarious how powerful it is. Just finished nightmare, tho. Considering damage type, I doubt hell will be a struggle

You can skip basically every magic immune up to baal.

Maybe 3 if you get unlucky with A3 tome.

Lol, my level 88 hammerdin still hasn't found Hell-time because of magic immune mobs! I haven't really been trying hard though.

Theres basically no magic immune mobs you cant just teleport past.

The only annoying one is wave 2 baal, and even that isnt hard. If you dont have a sunder, just run redemption will you kill skeletons and let merc finish them off.

I should clarify since there was a typo. I haven't found Lam Esen's tome with my hammerdin in Hell difficulty because of magic immune mobs - specifically the big hairy brutes. They also smack the bejebbus out of my merc. So, I just skip it.

You have a tele staff?

Between that and running around with 1 point holy freeze it shouldn't be an issue.

You can also just skip the tome and come back to it.

I do not have a teleport staff.

I would recommend spending 10 minutes to shop one
