Replace Metamorphosis w/ Hunter-like Enslave Demon

al91206 · July 31, 2008, 11:38 AM

While metamorphosis is very cool - I don't know exactly how useful it is. What about replacing that top-level talent with all our suggestions about enslave demons and get a hunter-like ability to train 'exotic demons' that stay with you until dismissed, etc etc etc.

Any thoughts about this?

I'm confused . . . if you don't know how useful something is, why advocate for replacing it?

Metamorphosis will be useful on a pvp environment, at least. Have heard reports of warlocks aoe farming better than with affliction, using this skill too.

About your suggestion, i like the idea of taming, or even permanently enslaving demons but, lets think about it being a 51 point talent. Everyone would just spec for it to enslave, and then go back to their spec. Wouldn't be a talent "to have" but to "spec for an hour". Blizzard usually is against those.

But you wouldn't be able to summon it unless you stayed that specc. If they would make it into a sort of talent thingy. Meaning that you'd unlearn "Summon 'exotic' Demon" when you respecc.

Maybe useful for pvp but the 10 top tier point leading to it are worthless atm except for raid. Even if pet could get 15% crit which i doubt 2.5 crit is terrible

ASCII Art might be amusing but there's a time and a place for it. Using it in place of a well though-out response to the thread isn't the time or the place - save it for the official forums.

Permanent Enslave demon would suck. Demon-form looks quite useful from the videos for both PvE and PvP and for the last time - IT IS BETA NOT LIVE.

What makes locks (and other classes) cool is that we do different things.

Having a hunter ability in essence takes something away from the unique feel I enjoy when playing my Lock.

(Especially when standing next to a frost mage in raid wearing the same items which him spamming FB and me spamming SB. Totally unique :-) )
