Warlock Pact Damage After Update

[Krankenwagen]

Anyone else experiencing his or hers Warlock's Pact Damage not working?

I have a Fire Pact Warlock and have tried relogging and turning my pact on and off (damage is about the same). Fire should heal iron golems, but when I tried it did not heal them.

I can also feel the difference because it takes twice as long to complete a solo quest.

Just checked my warlock and pact damage is working fine. Are you not seeing the added fire damage in the combat log or in the floating damage?

[Krankenwagen]

Nothing in combat log or on screen.

It's like I'm only doing force damage.

Maybe it's just fire pact and your problem may be related to the new archetypes pact. I have acid pact on my warlock.

Is this an existing Warlock or did you start a new Acolyte of the Skin one? So far as Blightcaster the lvl 4 Hive form was not granting evasion let alone improved evasion when i check it in von5 but the lesser form was granting evasion. Also on the Dark Hunter the run boost did not grant me any uses of it.

I am experiencing the same issues with a Tiefling Fire Pact Warlock. It worked the night before the update, and is no longer working. I tried the same fixes, changing forms from blasting and cone, and turning utterdark on and off. None of them worked. My fire damage from the Bloodhunt enhancement is not working on my blasts either. I put in a CS report and they do not have a "CS based solution" at the time of writing this post.

Well that's another data point. 1 report of acid pact working and 2 reports of fire (Fiend) pact not working. It would be silly if True Fiend Pact from the new archetype broke Fiend Pact but it's the only change in U58 that can explain the problem.

Can also confirm my fiend pact is doing 0 damage.

Next time I wait a day and check the forums before tr'ing lol

I checked my Fey Pact Warlock, and it's working just fine.

Just made a lvl 1 Fiend warlock to test, and yup it's the pact that's broke. So PSA: until further notice don't build a fiend pact BASE warlock as the fire damage does not work.

seems like they're working on a fix for this and a few other things that popped up today - saw a post from Cordovan to that effect somewhere

Confirmation from a dev would be nice. Post from Cordovan only said they were fixing issues, but nothing about this. This is a big deal for players with fiend warlocks! Is the fix for this going to be included in the hotfix?

[mbartol]

Well, nerfing existing functionality to push people to the new shiny is not unheard of…

[Porshe]

This sucks, hope u fix it. Fiend warlocks pact damage not working, meaning only force damage working. Leveling a fiend warlock with only force damage really sucks!!

Always, always, always wait a few days after an update has been released before TRing.

ALWAYS!!

[Cordovan]

This will be corrected in the next game update, timing to be announced soon.

Upon revealing their power, True Fiends stole their flames from the other fiends.

So evil!

If Acolytes of Skin are True Fiends then are Fiend Pact Warlocks actually only Quasi-Fiends, the Diet Coke of Fiends?

"Fiend Pact" means the Warlock has made a pact with a fiend, not that they are, themselves, a fiend or of fiendish heritage.

Which begs the question... can an AoS then act as a granter of Warlock pacts?
