	A lot of strange things in my opinion. Magister is very strange. As I said in another thread, evocation familiarity didn't do anything. Or at least is so marginal, that it couldn't be detected after a full minute of blasting. EA or shiradi are much superior. Balizarde/libram is also a strange choice compared to TF/golden orb. Also, that new robe has +10 insightful spellpower (it' a robe which sucks, but were talking about full retard here). You'd want 31 points in ES for the T5 core (+3d6). But I soul eater is better for pure DPS, with the full vulnerability procs (+20% dmg). The SLAs are pretty strong too. Also, some folks mentioned eldritch wave (T5 soul eater) got a undocumented buff to cast time. T5 soul eater + TS capstone might come out to be the best DPS (haven't tested it though).

That's all I can say for now until I TR. AtomicMew wrote on Oct 11^th, 2015 at 4:31pm: EA or shiradi are much superior.� I prefer EA for aura + SLA spamming. That will be a different build though.

Libram has 10 insightful as well. Would be nice to have the better insightful crit off of the skull, but I was prioritizing maximum spell power before crits. It looks like I need to swap in TF anyway (or switch to GOO pact), because TF seems to be the only way to get good sonic lore. Balizarde is there for the Planar Conflux spellpower, which stacks with everything AFAIK (the defensive bonuses are also very nice).

Edited: Yeah it looks like I can get more spellpower out of GOO even though I'd be dropping those set bonuses. Gonna write that up

	this might be a good warlock. however, when talking about warlock FOR DUMMIES, I'd expect a con-based enlightened spirit in Unyielding Sentinel for more HP or Divine Crusader for more lag.

Yeah. "for dummies" build probably shouldn't include: 1) Completionist feat 2) 4 Twists of fate 3) A gear set that includes 3 DoJ items, 2 MoD items, 1 Deathwyrm item, 1 HH Item, ToEE Armor and weapon, both upgraded, 1 TF T3 weapon. That's a power gamer character with a lot of gear grind.

Seriously, though, especially with regard to 1) that god awful MoD drop rate and 2) needing 30 phlogs to make one T3, a lot of people gave up on those raids. People seem more happy with the DoJ drop rate. It seems more in line with past raids (not including CiTW, which was also a fucking nightmare, even with 6 chests). On the phlog issue: Did it not occur to Turbine to make the number of phlogs needed different for 2-handers vs. 1 handers? A dual wielding character needs 60 phlogs, where as a great sword/great axe player needs 30. IAnd the 2 handers have more power. t should have been 20 phlogs for 1 handed weapons and 30 phlogs for 2 handers.

	DC casting is dead. It takes too long to get blue dragon -5 reflex/advanced evo focus -10 reflex to stack, or whatever for whatever pact you pick. Even if you did min-max and take everything you aren't going to hit EE saves anyways. Just max the no-save dps and stack con, PRR, and MRR, and go ES. This lets you pull 2x as many mobs at once, which doubles your dps and ends up higher dps than any attempt at any other tree or DC build.

	Slarden suggested CHA based for evard's (among other reasons). It seemed to work out pretty well with no investment in EE GH. I'm curious how inflated stats and saves are at current end game, which I haven't gotten to yet.

Choose your pact and spells correctly and you can have some success against specific mobs.

Will save target numbers are significantly easier to hit than the others. Also, gimping DCs for the sake of what? 5 spellpower? That makes no sense.

	fuck worthless sun-elf, not worth the +1 heart to drop cleric for +3 spellpower. the same AP can be put into Soul Eater to get: Inhuman Understanding (1ap), Consume(3ap), Hunger tier1(6ap), Stricken(9ap), Inhuman Nature 1(10ap), No Worse Fate(11ap), Hunger tier2(14ap), Shape Cone(16ap - top dmg stance after the change) Which nets you: +15 SP from cores, +12 SP from Hungers. You lose a whole 3 Spellpower, and gain a 2 Sla combo that does some heavy dmg against bosses. Along with 25 Fort, not all that big but every bit helps vs champs i hear. TS is nice and all, but less DPS than ES, if im not mistaken that is.

Wouldnt know, hvnt really played much against them (read as at all) I just know 27 USP is better than 30 Light SP when warlock is involved as it adds +27 power to pact element, as well as the light/evil dmgs rather than just 30 to light/evil.

	The buff is " fuck you if you have fortification"

	Dear players, The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means. Love, People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly
