You know what I hate about being a Wizard? I don't get to drain power. Troubadors, Illusionists, Coercers, and WARLOCKS can all drain power. How come someone who masters in disease and poison can drain power?

 

But anyway, I'm a 50 Wizzy on Lavastorm. I've parsed a 50 Warlock in my guild before, along with myself. Generally, his has been higher than mine, and all of my main nukes are adept 3 and his aren't. I hate how on raids I'm always the pumping [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot]. That's all I do. Isn't Warlocks' devastation or nil distortion (whichever the level 50 nuke one is).. 2500 dmg dot, AE? That's a crap load of dmg. Ice Comet averages around 2500 on raid mobs even at adept 3, when the spell description says high 2900s to 3657. And this is on ONE mob, not an AE... Sure maybe Wizards' IC is an INSTANT dmg spell, but does it really matter? Warlocks DPS on their level 50 spell destroys ours... Ice comet should be made AE or something.

Warlocks get stuck pumping power to everyone too...we just get less spells for it.  Also...Devastation's description says "does not work on epic targets," so I don't think its a raid spell.  And your Ice comet does around 3500 normally, whereas if we're in single battle, devastation does ~2500.  Face it warlocks get better damage spells, you get more utility.  Sure you didn't know that from reading the instruction manual, but who does?  The instruction manual doesn't give you your spell lists and everything you need if you want to make an informed, educated decision.  Just like a high school project you need to research!!!
