Warlock Starting Tips
Warlock Perks: (Torture Mastery) > Malice > Dark Reflection > Antimagic.
Equipment: Falchion since its the cheapest option + Crystal ball (Optimal) but spellboosk okay.
Stats: Magical Healing is king. You want to be a vampiric warlord? Then make this your priority. Even +1 magi healing doubles the current healing you get.
Skills: Spell Memory and Blow of Corruption always (optimal).
For spells, and how they work. You’ll mostly be using curse of pain and hellfire. Curse of pain when applied with torture mastery gives you healing for magic dmg.
Versus Players: Perma aggro vs most.
- Barb: Play for curses first, drain them a bit and use their slow movespeed then go in with falchion and blow, 9/10 times you win.
- Fighter: Same as barb but aggro more early. Cast a curse then go in, with blow of corruption you win 9/10.
- Wizard: Gotta play careful and wear out their spells, always continuously try to push and get curses off to drain the already little HP the inferior class has. 7/10 you win.
- Bard: Hes an npc bro. push, cast curses you win 10 times out of 10.
- Cleric: Has a lot of healing to fight and tank you. Drain out his heals with your curses, dont get close if you know he has judgement. 7/10 times you win.
- Ranger: Your worst nightmare bucko. Unwinnable unless they misplay. If the circle is on your side, use that to hold a choke on where he must go and force him to go into you. 3/10 times you win.
Versus Mobs: Use environment and suck that juice. Get on top of barrels and crates. Skeletons are your best friend. Use stairs to bait out the bosses. Hellfire is very useful for mob clearing, just remember to apply curse of pain before use.
Phantomize Do: Go through axe traps, doesnt activate traps, phase through arrows,mobs and players, gives priority to portal if you are inside. Added — (Thanah): can free from ranger traps.
Best Warlock Passive: Free Red Potion.
