Warlock self-res is a crutch for the weak.

Warlock self-res is a crutch for the weak. Seriously. What use is it outside of PvP? That's right - people who struggle to stay alive can have a second chance at dying again. Give me a Warlock whose build is based around staying alive any day of the week. A Warlock using self-res is basically waiting to die. They're holding the rest of the team back. They don't generate orbs unless they die. They don't activate supers unless they die. They're basically a drain on DPS and team strategy/cohesion. If you're a Warlock with self-res, [i]you're letting your team-mates down[/i]. When recruiting for Raids, I ask people if they use self-res and then turn them down if they say yes. I want my Warlocks to be team-players, not people concerned only about themselves. [spoiler]It's not really any use in PvP either.[/spoiler] Edit: apologies if I've stopped replying to someone in particular, this forum makes it impossible to look through everything and keep up with every conversation. Edit 2: Next week on Ackter Provokes: The Gjallarhorn and how if it was suddenly removed, 99% of players would no longer be able to beat anything!

    So tell me this, what if the whole team wipes in a strike or raid, then the sunsinger self revives, and runs around to save his teammates? Would you still consider them weak? This has personally happened to me before and I can not thank that warlock enough. It is not a crutch, it is an ability that can have some great use. Sure, people have gotten a little careless because of the second life, but at the same time, there are so many situations where that self revive can be the difference between a wipe or defeating a boss. Leave them alone. This is coming from a Hunter by the way.
