Warlocks!

[Failedlegend]

[*]We'll probably strongly consider not tying Warlock to the Primal Sphere of Epic Destinies.

I think the issue is two-fold:

1. The Warlocks kind of fit in ALL the spheres.

2. Whichever Sphere you stick Locks in will basically mean they can't use the others as their Epic DCs will be tied to that Sphere...Frankly any DC caster has this same issue.

I'd say the easiest solution to issue to is to move the specific DC boosts from the Epic Destinies to the EPic Levels where it just grants a generic +1 DC to all classes

As for Issue 1 would it be possible to although warlocks to start in ANY sphere?

[*]We of course still want to add new spells to the game, including particular for Warlock's release.

Would it be easier to reskin existing spells than make entirely new ones? ie. Entangle -> Black Tentacles

[*]I'm a bit surprised at how often players have suggested that death spells aren't appropriate. Should we remove death spells from the general Warlock spell list?

I see no reason to remove them, in fact it would make sense if Warlocks had the largest spell list in DDO but only 2 spell slots, they dabble in a little bit of everything but can only utilize a little bit of that knowledge at any one time (since they've studied so much they can't memorize it all)

[*]Spell points are probably here to stay in some form, but we're aware that having some spell-point free abilities is important.

A lack of spell points would make using spellcastery EDs annoying...my Enlightened Spirit/KOTC/Divine Crusader will appreciate the Blue Bar.

[*]Details of alignment restrictions are something we may still discuss. If you have an opinion on this that you haven't expressed yet, do please chime in.

Honestly I'd rather there be no alignment restrictions even in 3rd edition there's several examples of Lawful Good characters who make pacts with even the most CE creatures for what to them seems like entirely LG reasons...and vise versa.

Especially since this is Eberron our "Iconic" Paladin class worships a LE Demi-god that wants to eradicate all fleshies, Hobgoblins are Civlizied, Halflings are Dinosaur Riding Barbarians, Drow are slightly less insane, Kobolds are Adorable and have a Union. Were supposed to defy normalcies it's why I love Eberron so much.

I guess you're just ignoring the fact that several players have shown interest in the fact that we want various types of viable melee warlocks, pure and multiclassed eh?

You know you can wield any weapon you want right whether you unarmed or wielding a 2-hander dealing 9d6 Force + 10d4 Pact Damage magnified by spellpower is great. You can do do in a PBAOE, a Cone or an Aura (I also assume the standard ranged blast and the chain lightning would in melee as well)

I for one plan to Make a "Mad Scientist" X-Bow Artificer that makes a pact with the old ones (aka Xorian Horrors) for some fun mixing of chain Lighting Eldritch Blast, RUne Arm Blasts and X-bow pew pewing.

That is of course assuming you still use your weapon when EB is activated...I really hope so otherwise all Locks will just be carrying "caster sticks" or "Caster stick"+orb

So, I have noticed that there is no healing so far in the spell list or anywhere else. But, you have been saying that healing will be added to the enhancement trees. Well, I had an idea for Enlightened Spirit, which is the ability to change your Eldritch Blast into a scaled healing spell. You would be able to heal anyone around you, probably quite quickly, in return for being incapable of dealing damage. Now, this may not fit into Enlightened Spirit, it's just an idea I had that seems fun.

Anyways, glad to hear that spells are in the list of things to do, since that was pretty much my only complaint!

Looking forward to the enhancement trees being released.

Well I know Varg mentioned something about abilites in the trees that use your eldritch blast so some sort of "Heal Blast" would be a pretty cool ability especially since locks can shift the shapes of their EB. I wonder if you could pick of the EB shape from each tree if you wanted or if it's a one per lock thing (either Tier 5 or Anti-req)

I don't like warlocks, I want something else, Why not new races

To you guys and everyone else saying this, their not going to just not do Warlocks now it's just wasting the devs time spamming stuff like this, I'd very much appreciate it if you guys focused your energies on trying to improve the class instead

Sylvan Elves
Mountain Dwarves/Duegar

We already have FOUR elven races and we already have dwarves, it would be a waste of dev time to add more (I come back to this later, read on) when they could spend like time adding unique races like:

Gnomes
Kobolds
Hobgoblins
Gnolls

Tieflings
Genasi
Aasimar
Pixies (Girlfriends request, but I would enjoy it if they were added)
Hengyokai
Dragonborne
Shardmind
Hamadryads
Revenants
Kenku
Half-Giants
etc.

and no I don't think any of these races are "Munchkin" the words most people use is "Interesting, Cool or Fun" and if they really are OP, the devs will just adjust them to compensate (just like I think kobolds should be adjusted to be not be completely useless if added)

That said back to "Subraces" I would love it if at Character creation you can choose your subrace which would have some effect on your racial enhancement tree...which furthermore I think we should just gain racial enhancements as we level up instead of having to sacrifice points from our class trees which are almost always better.

I am not your forum monkey if you look you can find I post in them so,I have no need or desire to see them again since they were completely and utterly ignored.

You mentioned specific threads/posts/polls that apparently support you, if you want to use them YOU have to hunt them down otherwise as far as were concerned they don't exist for the purposes of your argument.
