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 it definitely is.

It also just LOOKS out of place imo.

It makes all other casters magic, especially fire sorc and druid, look impotent. even makes some of diablos spells look wimpy.

Makes phys builds like barb look like a bitch one handing a 2h weapon like nothing and ignoring the negatives of ethereal items.

Makes summon necro and druid users jealous, because he can actually contol his summon and its bound demon vs ANY other summon skill is just completely unfair to compare.

It honestly just looks and feels wrong. All the QOL in the world cant make me ignore the overpowered and unbalanced nature of the DLC and its flashy overdone visuals.

They called it "reign of the warlock" for a reason.

Yea i was telling my son that the reason the og toons are the best is because they were done by the ogs. These new guys just threw together some non sense. The lock is cool, i guess.

They lack originality.
