We are Warlocks, wielders of wild magic - it takes a skilled hand to bend it to our will. Any good Warlock knows this, and those in the Crucible can attest to it as well. Nothing inspires fear like a charging Warlock, burning and unfazed by a barrage of bullets, or the sound of a nova bomb charging up as you and your fireteam attempt to cap a control point. Likewise, nothing is more laughable than watching the blunders of an unskilled Warlock, self-reviving only to instantly be returned to the grave, or cowardly wasting a nova bomb on a single target. I'm not granted the Titan's one hit punch, I'm not equipped with a distance melee, but get too close and I will burn you. Call it even that you get a solar grenade for that knife you threw over my head, and remember it's my hand cannon that laid you to rest. I did you a favor, you don't want your family to see that scorched face.
This is a call to all those endowed with the Traveller's light, Warlocks, bound by the knowledge that we are destined to lead and finish the fight against Darkness. The Vault of a Glass proved how vital we are in this fight. We were born with powers beyond our brothers in Destiny, we didn't strap a utility belt full of knives to our hip and we don't need a suit of armor to bolster our courage. A Warlock doesn't need a cape to show that he is a hero, and if you need all that protection to fight Darkness, maybe you should get a nightlight, BubbleBoy.
In the Crucible, all classes are given an equal chance. Enjoy your class's perks, and learn to defend against your enemy's. Never make excuses. But that's not what I want to talk about here. We all like to play games, but I want to talk about the fight against our real enemy, and what your class is doing to help in it. Hunters, are you useful at all in the fight against our greatest foes? You aren't going to Blade Dance your way to the end of our nemesis, and your Golden Gun might as well be a slingshot - and I promise you aren't fighting Goliath. Take a seat Hunters. And what about Titans? Strikers are better suited for Donkey Kong - when you're finished pounding the ground go eat a banana. Defender class, your bubble is nice - if you prefer to hide behind it the whole fight. Actually, why don't you hold the relic and try a shield that we can actually shoot through. Do I even need to explain Warlocks? Who hasn't had their entire fireteam's asses saved by a Sunsinger's self-revive. And know this, the Voidwalker can send unlimited nova bombs that wreck havoc against Atheon equal to a super from the relic. If I had to pick a raid fireteam, it would look like this: Warlock, Warlock, Warlock, Warlock, Warlock, Warlock.
Warlocks have been referred to as gifted, blessed, empowered - all true. But we're too busy slaying everything in our paths to make such distinctions, and if you're smart you'll stay out of our blast radius.
Edit: this post was meant to spark a fun rivalry/debate between the 3 classes. A little trash talk is a necessity to push us to better ourselves. I've learned a few things about the other classes/subclasses that were downright impressive. Don't worry, my guardian brethren, we're all crucial members in the fight to preserve the enlightened-human-exo races.
