Warlocks are great for players who just want a good all round character- they have great offensive and support capability, they have some pretty good movement range, good health and shields, and they can lend themselves to almost any style of play.

Both your abilities for subclassses- Voidwalker’s Nova Bomb and Dawnblade’s Daybreak- are hugely offensive, and especially useful for when you are battling mobs, or high end enemies. Additionally, you also get Area of Effect abilities- Empowering Rift that raises attack for you, and every other team member who stands within it, and Healing Rift, which heals everyone who stands within it.

That’s not all, either- you also get multiple jump options. You can get gliding, air dash, air strafing, as well as the ability to be a marksman while in the air. For this, the best option is to try the different kinds of jumps out for yourself and see which one works for you the best.

Warlocks have three sub-classes:

  • Dawnblade
  • Voidwalker
  • Stormcaller

DAWNBLADE

  • Allows for Controlled Glide, Balanced Glide, and Focused Burst
  • Super: Daybreak (create a sword of fire and take out enemies, Azor Ahai style)
  • Grenade Type: Solar (with Solar, Firebolt, and Fusion variants)
  • Specializations: Attunement of the Flame (take enemies out with harder hitting attacks) and Attunement of the Sky (emphasis on movement)

STORMCALLER

  • Allows for Controlled Glide, Balanced Glide, and Focused Burst
  • Specializations: Attunement of Ions (make your energy attacks more powerful) and Attunement of Elements (makes your support abilities more powerful)
  • Super: Stormtrance (basically, this is force lightning)
  • Grenade Type: Arc (with Pulse, Arcbolt, and Storm variants)

VOIDWALKER

  • Allows for Controlled Glide, Balanced Glide, and Focused Burst
  • Specializations: Attunement of Chaos (makes the Nova Bomb slower but more hard hitting) and Attunement of Hunger (makes the Nova Bob faster but less powerful)
  • Super: Nova Bomb (throw a devastating energy bomb at enemies and destroy everything caught in its wake)
  • Grenade Type: Void (with Vortex, Scatter, and Axion Bolt variants)
