Response from Caydiem on the Infernal / Doomguard debate...
You are right on risk there needs to be some mean and evil pet action with risk but well I just don't think the charmed thing fit to well into WoW as it did EQ. I can't put my figure on it but as it is now I see how on paper using Enslved Demon is a risk but it's the wrong kind of risk to me. For the lack of a better term "It doesn't feel right" then again they were rushed in at the last minute. Since it's Blizzard maybe they have something in store though unless Rytan and Brenlo got jobs at Blizzard.
I'm looking for more than mashing a button and seeing if the random number generator smiles or frowns on me. There has to be something that is risky and challenges the player. Random chance seems to be well weak to me. Problem is I don't really know what is needed but it's gotta be cool, it's gotta be ballsy, and it's gotta be something that seperates the good Warlocks from the great Warlocks. A test of skill that keeps ya playing by the seat of your pants but isn't gear based. Well not to gear based at least perhaps talent based as Demonology needs some loving.
Something that makes people look over and go "dam that is one hell of a Warlock" but like I said at this point in time I have no idea as to what.
Ah well suppose to go hang out with the crew that formed from EQ when we realized we all lived around Atlanta maybe one of them know they all have a 5 years of experience with MMO's so they got a year or so on me. Maybe they got some insight.
But yeah implementation thats the key but the how part thats a definately a gold plated one right there.
