Runes of Magic US / AU

I believe both the Wl/R and Ch/R are pretty effective combos, and perhaps the R/Wl (not a fan of the R/Ch because I don't like traps or mechanisms), so it wouldn't be a bad choice by any means.

Warlock/Champion or Warlock/Mage IMO make great class combos. Warlock/Rogue is nice but seems to be more PvP oriented

Wl/R is great so far, I'm only lvl 30/25 and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Same for R/Wl whenever I switch between. Wl/M also seems to work well together, but for overall synergy of skills I'd give it to the Wl/R.

Yeah Wl/R is sick, as for the others I'd say only mage would be viable as a third. /r is definitely amazing due to synergy of the skills and is NOT pvp focused only, granted it will be sick in pvp, but PVE will be beast too.

I haven't made many warlocks as of yet, but I do know this: if you want magical attack power, warlock/mage and or mage/warlock is the way to go. The damage they do is ridiculous! I will also note that a warrior/warlock has a lot of AoE ability and can ALWAYS use his skills, never runs out of juice

Wl/M seems best for dps but in-game, in my experience, soloing is ok, partying is not. Hve to switch to M/Wl for party Any Warlock able to catch mage or rogue dps-es in party? Can give tips?

wl/m now is awesome for parties, now that warped charge buff goes for everyone around, doesn't even need to be in party. so a 12 person raid, that's like a 15% or more attack speed and i think 7 or 8% spell cast speed. my warped charge is only 55, since i'm a m/wl, but wl/m is pretty nice dpser too, besides this awesome warped charge. Psich arrow, warped charge and weakening weave hits twice due to elites. they have a 1 min duration 20% decrease on casting speed with focus regen. they have totally 6 instants, so pvp won't be a problem + silence, root, fear. wl/m is awesome combo, though i went m/wl for the ability to run while casting =)

Agreed.
Wl/M share the same gear, have abilities that work together.
Direct DPS with DOTs are an awesome combination.

I thought warp charge elite was great too until I checked combat log and saw that it only affects myself and a maximum of 5 others.
The bonus fire damage on some skills is junk. It only adds to the INT bonus so it does not hit twice. More like a bonus 5k dmg per hit.

Wisdom increases INT by 1... 7.9%

wl/m has 3 aditional instant skills: Fireball, Lightning (root) and Flaming heart strike. Also wl/m has silence, silent seal (double damage) and intensification

Some spells has a little INT modifier

Focus building increseas INT by 3... 30%

Fire ward increases fire damage by 10... 48.5%

Warp charge increses attack speed by 4... 16.3% and casting speed by 2... 8.2% of nearby people

Saces's cracking spell debuffs decreasing crit resistance by 20... 713 during 15s

Thinking overload increases casting speed by 15% and focus regeneration during 60s

Soul pain, perception extraction and heart collection strike debuffs target increasing received dark and fire damage by 9... 36%. This is a big boost for ALL mages, warlocks, d/r and w/m.

What do u think about wl/m now?

Let me post my opinion for WL/W combo, not shown frequently. I play WL/W/M 60/55/55 as alt in EU-Macantacht. Started playing WL/M initially, really quite nice combo, but decided to follow the WL/W road after, since its alot more fun and nice to play imo. So lets summary


- Slash: Magic dmg. 225 range. Adds magic bleed with extended duration. And puts debuff at target that takes +30% dark dmg with just 1 hit (lvl 50 elite). But most important ... it does not trigger GCD

- Berserk: hehe, i love it +36% magic attack AND +36% cast speed for 30s every 60s. Have a look again plz..+36% cast speed..

- Enraged: Adds 20 rage and 20 focus. Nice way to get focus up except for Heart collection strike. Furthermore its cd is reset with certain possibility every time u use weaken strike, psychic arrows, warp charge. Also with 60 elite it restores 10% hp, a more than desirable healing that lacks from non-healing combos

- Defensive formation: meh. just mentioning that it adds running speed in case u need to escape faster from wipes

- Psychic Arrows: I love it. +50% dmg from normal-WL psychic arrow. In conjuction with berserk and Slash is nasty and forms ur most dmging skill. And spammable Plus it adds 20 rage at each hit. But who needs rage other than slash..

- Mind transference: Well thats why u need rage. For every 35 rage, u gain 1 psi. and with 70-elite at full rage, u gain 6 psi at 1 click. Yeap. 1 psi per 20 rage +1 psi bonus.


Good luck to all who follow the wl/w road. I strongly suggest it. Just try it.
Have Fun

Edit: Forgot to say. About the wl/m combo. Indeed quite nice. Very powerful and strong party-support. I m just disappointed from ppl in game general. supportive roles r dying in rom. Probably u ll debuff the bosses at max with ur skills and all that u ll hear at the end is that u did 50% less dmg than party mages, while the nubs dont understand that 50% of their dmg is cause of u (aoe cast speed and increased fire dmg debuff at boss)...

yeah, i'm a m/wl/w, and enjoy a lot wl side, both wl/m and wl/w. another thing, besides all the already pointed wl/m good stuff, is willpower blade rotation. as wl/m, you can use like 4 perception extraction for the debuff, a psich arrow, puzzlement and flaming heart strike for 6 psi, enter on blade state, and keep spamming wl/m blade elite, wich has 1s cast, costs 1 psi, hits pretty hard, and resets cd of flaming heart strike, wich recovers 3 psi. so you can cast like that elite twice, and then flaming heart, and repeat until blade state is over. then you repeat crazy dps using that rotation
