Did that too, but I was talking about a true tank

not a resistance tank.

You been following beta coverage, Jushiro? Apparently demonology locks with some glyph are supposed to end up roughly on par with arms warriors in terms of tankability.

My impression has been that is an effort at bait-and-switch.

Blizzard has gone out of their way to imply warlock tanking will be viable while claiming it won't be.

Aestu of Bleeding Hollow...

Nihilism is a copout.

Do locks get PvE crit immunity?

Either way, I *could* see warlocks being the preferred tanks for Scenarios.

No, they're not. Neither should be a class that wears cloth. Warlocks are a balance nightmare as is because of all their damage reduction; I don't like the idea at all.

Why should a class wearing leather be tanks, but not one wearing cloth.

Balance is only a problem in this game because of pvp.

The reason warlocks (and cloth, generally speaking) can't directly be tanks is because of caster mechanics and how they interact with mobs hitting them. If locks either get only instants or 100% pushback resistance, they'll be functionally superior to other casters in every possible way. The only acceptable solution is to have the pet be the tank, and if that happens, why not hunters?

Also WoW is literally the only MMO ever made in which PvP isn't complete shit. You not liking it is irrelevant.

I don't understand this, you already get 100% pushback resistance with talents + conc aura.

(I haven't followed cata changes so idk if this is still around)

A class that shoots brick shaped shit at people as a special attack would be unique, it doesn't mean it's a good idea.

This makes me really want to find someone to create a tf2 mod that changes demoman pipe bombs into bricks.
