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!

i dont think its a crutch at all and i KNOW there r ppl who use it as a back up plan for mistakes. like those people who rez RIGHT after they die without assessing the situation ifbthey need to hold if off in case group wipes. also, self rez in pvp imo is not as good as survivability and not dying. i personally dont think its worth self rezzing after getting killed in pvp esp around larger group of ppl. yeah it can be satisfying to get back at the dude who killed u but i dont find it tactical most of the time. i run radiant skin so i can last longer in defending the flag now if u are in a premade game thats a diff story.... u can tell ur teammates. "ok got killed man, im gonna let these group of enemies cap the flag then when they (if they) leave im gonna recap it after rez. may need some backup." this applies to pve as well. when i die, its usually a really dumb mistake or in a very difficult firefight. i always tell people before hand DO NOT come rez me and risk ur life if the situation sucks. if they are in trouble, i rez to come help or rez them after observing. But yeah seen way too many people who use this as a clutch rather than being tactical with it. fellow sunlocks, even with fireborn, play as if you are doing the "do not die in strikes." lol
