Class Info


Weapon of choice: A mixture of magic weapons (orbs, books, etc...) and/or melee, depending on the build.

  • Pros
    • Spells cost health, not charges, allowing for nearly unlimited casts.
    • Has access to anti-healing
    • High melee burst damage, with a variety of strong melee options.
    • Extreme PvE capabilities, being able to heal off of NPCs or damage them through walls.
  • Cons
    • Spells are usually weaker than other classes' spells
    • Highly susceptible to rangers
    • Poor tools for dealing with fast, aggressive classes
    • In order to heal off PvE, you have to leave them alive, which can be dangerous if another party shows up
    • Melee weapon options are often slow

- Warlocks don't rely on spell counts and instead cast spells by paying a fixed amount of health depending on the spell. Health management will play a bigger role for this class than for others.

- Any health spent to cast spells will leave behind Recoverable Health, allowing for restoration via Resting, Bandages, or a friendly Bard.

- Torture Mastery will heal you when dealing damage with Curse of Pain and Power of Sacrifice, and will benefit from Magical Healing on your gear.

- Power of Sacrifice can be used as a party buff or as a damage-dealer. Be wary that granting enemies additional Strength will give them more max HP as well, mitigating some damage dealt.

- Blow of Corruption is very powerful in both PvP and PvE. In PvP, it can be used to prevent enemies from burst-healing.

- Phantomize will protect you from most sources of damage, however floor traps, AoE spells (Holy Strike, Fireball, Lightning Strike), Zombie poison clouds, and any linger DoTs will still hurt you.

- If Hellfire is cast again whilst the Warlock's first Hellfire effect is still active, the first Hellfire will be deleted after the second one has finished casting.
