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!

8 RepliesDear confused OP, This may come as a surprise to someone of your grandeur, but I'll do my best to explain it in a way a five year old could grasp. Video games, with Destiny not being any exception, are meant to be played for entertainment. Entertainment is this big word we adults use to explain what FUN is (ya know F is for friends who do stuff together?). If you have never experienced the raw adrenaline it is to save an entire raid crew in the last few seconds of hope, then you have no room to talk (and I feel bad for you, because it is so badass). Not everyone has the same skill level or the time or the patience to tackle the muscle memory mechanics of each and every aspect of the content in this game. Wanna know what else OP? Connection error? Don't worry, lock's got your back. Unexpected lag spikes? Pfff guess what I've been saving my GD super for... Someone's kid needs an emergency diaper change? Just tell me when... Why? Because my super is worth the manpower of 2 players instead of one. What OP needs to consider is that playing as a warlock with self res is actually one of the more selfless things one could do in PvE. Seems to me like the trigger pulls of your weapon can't satisfy protecting your team enough... otherwise you wouldn't be complaining about wipes...
