To give you an idea of the Affliction Warlock in action, here’s a basic look at their core combat abilities: It also adds significant self-healing, further playing to the Affliction motif. This better matches the Affliction identity because its damage stays secondary to the DoTs, which should be the primary focus of damage, instead of dwarfing them. You’ll then spend Soul Shards on an extremely strong DoT in Unstable Affliction, reinforcing the focus on DoTs.įinally, in keeping with the Affliction theme, Drain Life serves as the main filler spell, instead of Malefic Grasp or Drain Soul. Soul Shards are now generated by each Agony you have up on your targets, instead of only by your most recent Corruption cast, to favor placing DoTs on several targets rapidly (multi-dotting). Mechanically, we’re altering how Soul Shards are generated and spent, in part to better deliver on the more DoT-driven damage. We’re adjusting the Affliction rotation so that DoTs are stronger, and your focus is more on figuring out how best to juggle those DoTs to maximize damage output. Applying spells that do damage over time is very core to Affliction, so we want to reinforce these spells as the primary source of damage, with other “filler” spells feeling more secondary. 'These warlocks delight in using fel forces to cause intense pain and suffering in others'Īffliction Warlocks’ gameplay has always aligned well with their character, but in terms of abilities, we want to avoid the feeling that DoTs are amplifiers for your channeled single-target damage. Even the most battle-hardened warriors can be deceived, landing blow after blow against the warlock, only to succumb to their suffering as their very vitality is siphoned away by the dark spellcaster. They revel in corrupting minds and agonizing souls, leaving enemies in a state of torment that would see them undone in due time.

I just gave them all a necromantic twist.įinally, I added level scaling to the spells so they get extra damage dice when they level up. I've also removed the patron limitation on the invocations and made them usable on all warlocks. Ten thousand hands push enemies away and they cannot enter it willingly which means that they will enter your aura if walk into them. I've also removed the strength saving throw required to enter your aura and replaced it with the ability to cause one creature to treat it as difficult terrain. It is now invisible until you activate it as an action. The biggest being a change to the aura of the dead. There are a few changes between this version and the last one. It was a treat to hammer this one out with people and make this something I can truly be proud of. The raw flavor of the class alone has inspired me to create dozens of characters and villains revolving around this patron.

Of all the subclasses i have worked on in the past few months, this has to be one of my favorite.
