Let the darkness empower ja, my friend. We, warlocks, wil reign supreme!

Also worth noting that Warlock CREATED Death Knights

mage mains got triggered cause fel is more powerful than arcane LUL

Before watching the video keep in mind that I'm strictly talking about the lore characteristics of the class. Also would be great if you guys could give me some feedback on this new series. I could expand it even more. Also get lower PING and increase performance with NoPING: nopi.ng/Doronsmovies

Not only is it stated that Fel Magic is extremely more powerful then arcane, but Warlocks duribng legion hands down have a God Artifact with the Scepter of Saragaris. Which alot of lore people agree is the god tier, of powerful artifacts.

So everyone was okay with using warlock powers to fight against the legion, but when Illidan used demon powers. He was a terrible guy? Hypocrites

Thank you for making this video, as a Warlock for many years I take pride when we're boasted about instead of degraded by our nerf-gun spells.

I think it's the same thing as with light and void. We've all seen how "weak" the Naaru, beings made out of pure light, are. It's almost ridiculous. Still, it's said that the light is immensely powerful. It's just not that aggressive a force. In a way, it's not meant to do damage (even though it still can, of course). The void, in combat, is simply stronger because it's literally the force that want's to devour everything. It's very concept is that of destruction. Same thing with fel. Fel is disorder and by it's very nature want's to corrupt and destroy. I think light and arcane aren't REALLY weaker than void and fel. They are just not as destructive and therefore less effective in combat. Whereas the titans, using arcane, made intelligent beings out of inanimate matter, Sargeras simply took what was already created and then twisted these beings to his liking with fel. The titans ordered countless worlds and created life. That's something demons, with fel, could never have done. Arcane and light are just not meant to simply destroy and twist creation. Also, as seen in "Harbingers: Gul'dan", fel is incredibly easy to wield. Sure, it may be hard to control, master and use it precisely, but just using it to wreak some havoc isn't as hard as trying to use arcane to wreak some havoc. Arcane needs intense studying, a good bit of talent and the right kind of stuff to be effective. Fel also needs studying and talent, sure, but not in the same way that arcane does. Lastly, I don't agree with people saying priests/paladins are the strongest because of the whole light/void thing. Sure. These two might be the strongest forces in the Great Dark Beyond, but that doesn't mean that mortals can even wield them effectively enough to overpower arcane/fel/elements/nature.

its lame how warrior, rogue and Hunter are nothing but regular foot soldiers in the lore.

the way you explain these stories and lore makes it so easy to understand, im going to watch your videos to learn more about wow history, subbed and liked

Your videos are in another level of entertainment, keep the good work!!

This series is awesome!! Would love to see more, especially on Paladins and Shamans!

Great effort put in this channel ! keep up the good work mate:D

you've really help me to decide alot better what class to pick based on lore thank you

this new series is amazing, different, and just all around good info. Thanks!

This serie is cool as fuck :) can you do warriors next, to have a non OP class lorewise

Great video. I've mained a warlock for awhile and it is still my favorite class.

Hey Dorons

Great video as always, and they are powerful not just by lore but by current gameplay standards, takes a really good rogue or half a army to kill a single warlock half the time in pvp.

Does that make fel the strongest magic?

dude i love these vids with the cuts of gameplay in between!

I'd love to see more of this series. I love it!

Great video. I'm loving this new series.

Great video you explained the advantages holy light users have against locks and the advantages the fel magic has against most other classes like spell casters. Great video keep it up!!!! Pally and DK's next.

I like this series and I wish there was more episodes. keep them coming :D

Can't wait for more! Now I'm just sitting here, hyped, until you to cover the rest of the classes... I rarely comment on KZfaq videos, but this video (and the Demon Hunter one) earned you a sub from me!

It kinda bothers me that Demonology Warlocks have so many "shadow" spells that use the powers of the void. They should have more "green" or fel based powers. The shadow spells should go to affliction that's all about corruption and damage over time.

As far as I know warlocks do not posses a demon within them. They only wield the fel and nether magic for their own use. As summoning and commanding demons or casting fel fire at their enemies. Why am I mentioning this? Because by the lore and of recent changes for the class fantasy, which blizzard has stated a countless of times. Only demon hunters who are similar to warlocks, invoke a demon into themselves. So that they could track any demonic force and slay them with their own weapons. Neither Kil'Jaeden, Archimonde or Gul'Dan have a demon in them. They are demon themselves due to corruption. So none of playable classes are by any means demons. Except Demon Hunters who are half humanoid and half demon.

Awesome video! You should do one on rogues too!

Awsome video, but i have a question: Will you do like a How Powerful Are Warriors of hunters? Because those classes in the lore point of veiw seem a bit dull compared to other more magic wielding classes.

i think a shadowpriests potential could possibly reach warlocks potential, mostly depending on the willpower i think it's due to the fact that shadowpriests attacking their opponent's sanity, that they could easily drive their opponent into a state of madness where they either dont even want to fight anymore or are no longer able to control their abilities and focus on spellcasting. in regards of warlocks that could mean that the warlock could be consumed by his fel magic or the priest being able to break the pact the warlock has with its minions, turning them against their former master/ take over the control himself

it will be interesting seeing how you evaluate the mage in this video series. With the guardians of tirisfall and a number of feats to this class name I'm looking forward to that one. Based on the "World of Warcraft: Chronicle" we know that the titans powers are based on the arcane. And Sarageras was already the strongest warrior of the pantheon before his flip to the fel. It is hard to tell how much of his prowess now is due to his switch in allegiance / power source or due to the fact he was always a very powerfull godlike thing. As such I think that evaluating the arcane to be inferrior to the fel in terms of power to be a rushed conclusion. This is to evaluate order(arcane) against chaos(fel), they are concepts and not necessarily measurable. As an example how whould you compare an planet shattering explosion (fel - draenor/outland) against the ability to manipulate time itself (bronze dragonfligh - titan creation (arcane), the whole warlords of draenor thing)? Or on a smaler scale Time warp (mage) vs lets say chaos bolt (warlock)? I do agree with your assesment that mortal warlocks tend to grow exponentially faster in power than other magic users though, but as I see it this is mostly due to being given their power in a pact with a greater being. Not through study or hard training such as most other classes go through, wich is a much more time consuming process. The same pacts also makes them in most cases slaves to the legion. This includes Gul'dan and the erredar, the most powerfull warlocks known to us! The warlocks of the horde and the alliance is to my understanding no where near the power that some of their legion counterparts wield, as our warlocks gets no freebies or fast tracks to power and have to struggle with the rest of us to achive greatness in their craft!

Fel vs Void which is more powerful? And this has nothing to do which is hard to control but their effect that they have on beings.

I waited so long for this :D

good job man. would love to see a paladin video next. loving the series so far

So do affliction warlocks represent warlocks using void magic cuz typically when i roll warlocks the magic is fel overall

Watched about DK's too, subscribed :D

I'm not entirely sure if this is a Legion retcon, but the first warlock was Thal'kiel, the one that ruled Argus together with Velen and Kil'jaeden. Archimonde was his disciple and he betrayed Thal'kiel before his brothers only to later learn it together with Kil'jaeden.

Honestly your lore videos are the only thing making me want to play wow again lol

nice editing

I would love too see one about Monk's Since we basically know very little about them :)

Beautiful! Please, do shaman next time ^^

I really like this series! + 1 sub

You got a couple of things wrong. First of all, saying Warlocks are more powerful than Mages is a gross oversimplification. This is because the path of the Warlock is, first and foremost, a shortcut to great power. Through it, the average Warlock is able to garner more power in a couple of years than most mages are able to acquire in decades of practice. But, like you mentioned, this comes at a heavy toll for the practitioner of the dark arts. More so, even though a Warlock is able to attain power much more quickly than a mage, the power they can wield is also limited by the price they are able to pay, and pushing beyond a certain threshold is impossible without submission to the very forces they claim to master. A mage, on the other hand, has only one limitation: his mortal lifespan. And if it's true that the average warlock can annihilate an entire batallion of battle-mages fresh from the Dalaran Academy, not only because of their overwelming power, but also due to the very nature of fel magic and it's effectiveness in causing mass destruction, not even Gul'dan himself could stand up to the likes of Antonidas or most Archmages, for a number of reasons, the least of which being the fact that Arcane is just as potent as Fel magic, but works in a different way, much like the Light is just as potent as the Shadow/Void. Through their mastery of the Arcane, mages have the ability to manipulate and bend time: There wouldn't even be a battle between Gul'dan and Antidas, because Antonidas could simply go back in time, teleport to Draenor, and blast Gul'dan apart while he was a defenseless child. Mages are also able to prolong their lifespans to supernatural lengths, giving them ample time to improve their craft to a point where the most elite mages can fully match and surpass even the most powerful warlocks. As for pure, raw, undaulterated power, the fact that the Arcane is just as powerful as Fel can be attested by the protective shield surrounding Suramar, than not even the full might of the Burning Legion where able to break. Another common example of the raw power of Fel magic is the Hand of Guldan, the volcano brought into existence by his namesake in Shadowmoon Valley, as a show of force, matched by Dalaran itself, an entire city suspended in flight in defiance of the laws of gravity.

could you make a video of each class like this? its really interesting. would like to see priests next, specifically shadow :)

if you can, try to do one for every class other than deathknights cause we kinda know there power with the existance of naxxaramus raid and the deathknights in there

I can't wait for you to do how strong shaman is

Warrios as a class and some warriors from the lore would be cool, great new series man

Hey Doron! How are you doing man? I just wanted to thank you for being an inspiration to me. I've recently started my new channel and I would like your input on it please. I have already had some people comment on the audio quality, so I was wondering if you have an advice for me around the subject. I use a Blue Yeti mic and Bandicam for recording. I've pretty much established that is hasn't got anything to do with the mic (I noticed this when I did a voiceover in my editing application, and it was brilliant), so if you have any experience using Bandicam that would also be helpful!

what an amazing channel !!

Hi, what is the OST used on this video plz ?

Can you do a video of every class

nice vid! how powerful are shadow priest and death knights???

What is the set the warlock is wearing behind the demon at 3:56-4:00

Tell me about it affliction locks are demolishing bg-s also great vid :D

Warlocks are frail and weak?how do you explain gul'dan?he was a beast in the movie. And even if you don't count that,wouldn't constantly getting more and more life energy empower you instead of hurt you?in the video that showed gul'dans backstory we see that after he drained the life from the other orcs he was strong and could stand correctly.So wouldn't using the magic just make you even stronger?

Great video

0:20 anyone know the robe that is the warlock wearing?

Can you please do how powerful death knights are pleaseee!! :D

@Doronsmovies The belt that the human have in 4:17 mark, the one with the skull, what's it name?

Taken from the Warlock Forums: Lastly, I would like to open a discussion here about Metamorphosis. I perfectly know this topic will never be addressed before the end of Legion yet I cannot help but complain about it. Please keep in mind this is just my complaint, not other Warlocks’. Metamorphosis was so core to the concept of Demonology: it was the way to go for some caster who also lets demonic energies into himself…sometimes falling into their hands like Kanrethad Ebonlocke did. Or like Illidan did in the Vault of the Wardens. Metamorphosis was brought to us in Wrath of the Lich King and was changed to an active ability in Mists of Pandaria. Throughout the years, we saw plenty of Warlocks using it: Kanrethad (who also invented Dark Apotheosis through that magic), Teron’Gor (in Auchidoun, when he uses the powers of Demonology in normal or heroic difficulty, he uses Metamorphosis), and even the casters in Hellfire Assault (they transform using Metamorphosis at 50% health). And these were Warlocks, not demon hunters. Our Metamorphosis is not the same as the gloriously customized one the Demon Hunters got. It draws from other powers of the Legion. Furthermore, we are lore wise entitled to use it. It is mentioned in The Legacy of the Masters (part 1) that after the defeat of Illidan atop the Black Temple, Kanrethad brought the secret of this demonic transformation to the council of the six masters…and that’s why we got the ability in Wrath of the Lich King. So we basically got stripped of a most iconic Warlock ability for the sole purpose of Demon Hunters to have their nice cooldown. Let’s face it: Metamorphosis did not bring more complexity to the spec than it currently has, with all the Demonic Empowerment, Doom, and Demon tracking we must do. But do you, fellow warlocks, want to hear about the ultimate backstab? While Demon Hunters were already implemented and our Metamorphosis removed, we got to face Gul’Dan at the Broken Shore. And next to him, was an Eredar Sorceress (Lady Keletress)…with Metamorphosis wings. The same model as we’ve always had. Not the Demon Hunter one. And she was a WARLOCK. So when are we getting beloved Meta back?????? What are your oppinions on these statement?

warlocks use the same magic that created the death knights, summon and bind incredibly powerful demons to their will even ones as powerful as a pit commander, rain fel fire on all in their path, and even manipulate dark magic to travel across worlds a through massive portals. I love having a lock as my main.

You should do one about death knights

0:30 right off the bat the first warlock was Thal'kiel :P

I would throw in there that DKs and forsaken would also be able to ignore most of the one shot life steal stuff warlocks do.

Please make one about the death knights

As a Warlock main ill say.. Rogues are you’re worst nightmare.

So, when he was talking about the Light purifying Demons, when has this happen? Found it rather interesting.

Do the Death Knights next! :D

Could you do lore about weapons of great importance to the lore like frostmourne, doomhammer etc since these have been mostly covered by our lord and saviour nobbel

For those asking for warrior comparisons. To compare the strongest warrior to the strongest of each class is useless. Simply put, nothing, in this entire WoW universe as ever injured a titan (The most powerful beings) except for Broxigar. Not many know who he is, since his name is kept to the comic lore. But he shows the true measure of Warriors, he single handedly stood at a portal to the demon realm and cleaved down armies of demons. He obliterated so many, that he had to climb a mountain of bodies to continue slaying. He then stepped into the portal and fought the demons on their own turf, at which he killed mountains of demons again, and again and again. until finally, Sargeras himself needed to divert his attention and focus on Broxigar. Broxigar charged at sargeras and with all his remaining might, struck at Sargerases foot, leaving a scratch The only living being in the known universe to have ever injured a titan. Warriors have the most power out of all for this reason alone, given the right weapon, the warrior can easily demolish armies. I really want to see a Boomkin power guide, just specifically for boomkins. I've never heard about them in lore.

I dont even play WoW but this videos are still entertaining! :D

I mean, the first warlock was actually Thal'kiel the Eredar, who was the first summoner of demons. His heading being removed and now the Demonology artifact goes into it. Otherwise, awesome video.

love the video

I've main'd my destruction warlock since WOTLK. She's my favorite, and I think she's badass, even if I'm not the greatest at playing her lol

Can you do this for the new shadow priest?

I've only just started playing but my first character is an Orc Warlock, I also have an Orc Shaman and plan to make an Orc Warrior (tank). Is the drain life power available to all Warlocks or a specific spec? I want to RP all of my characters, they all have their own backstory within the Horde. The Warlock is an orphan who's parents killed by servants of the Legion, depressed and bitter he turned to Fel magic and the path of a Warlock to destroy all followers of the Legion. Haven't given my Shammy a backstory yet. My warrior has no love for the Alliance and wants to crush every one he comes across, his hatred for them is so deep and primal he has forgotten the reason why he despises them so much.

Can you please explain us how Warlock-ism(right word?) works with each race? For example with have the Trolls which they have the Loa Gods as far as I know. What about the other races?

Moonclock its going to be the Legion´s final boss

Cool video

You should do Death Knights next.

isnt kilJeaden more like a dark fell paladin? Because in their Legion models Archimonde was a mage, and archimonde looked like a paladin and Velen like a priest. a reak question

I wouldn't say that Warlocks are any more powerful than any other spell weaver in lore, it all depends on the wielder. Take Azshara for example, she was a wielder of Arcane magic but she was so powerful that even Mannoroth backed down after agitating her and feeling the depths of her power. No warlock to date could have stood up against of arcane power of Malygos, he may have even been a match for Archimonde or Kil'Jaeden. He said himself that he possessed enough power to destroy Azeroth ten times over. If that was true, that puts his claim over anything any warlock (save Sargeras himself) has ever shown.

What's the name of the armor at 4:51

WARLOCKS MASTER CLASS!

Aww you should have mentioned Kanrethad Ebonlocke and the Council of the Black Harvest

Hey Doronsmovies, My question is: If a priest and a warlock would fight eachother, who would win? (both are at the same level)

I think another avantage of the warlocks is that they aren't so weaks to sneaks attacks from rogues and hunters (unlike other casters) cause they have auras that can cause fear to those approaching them or even demons guarding (Eye of Kilrogg).. However they have the greatest weakness of all, the forces they used can destroy them or make them to lose the control if they try to use more power than they can handle, It's very easy for a enemy to use this in avantage or even that the Warlock himself lose the control...

I'm not sure how these elements pan out in the lore but lets keep in mind how powerful death knights can be virtually untouchable from magic with anti magic shell, anti magic zone, and the now removed rune of spellshattering. I feel that the death knights have a serious focus on defense from magic, including warlock magic.

Can you do a "How Powerful Are Warriors?" Video.. I know they are warriors but my orc Warrior is my main.. plz be gentle

i would say that sargeras was the one behind the invasion since the slaughtered of the draenei, killjaeden left the orcs alone and it was medivh the one who show guldan azeroth and the portal

Oh and btw how a DK fights a warlock and his minions: Step 1: Put on Saronite armor to get invulnerable to spells from the warlock. And / or use antimagicshell Step 2: Deathgrip warlock past his guards into your runeblade that eats his soul Step 3: Drain his blood and let your own minions finish the demons while you raise the remains as your servant Step 4: Freeze everything and laugh

Isn't Void or shadow magic beyond fel?

I've been maining a warlock for years and it made me very happy to hear someone praise the warlocks instead of whining about how "evil" they are and how they shouldn't be part of the playable game.

You talk about Paladins and Priests that can be good against demons,but the Warlocks themselves aren't necessarily Demons, so even if they manage to defeat their demon pet the Warlocks are still amazing casters.

Hey Doron will we able to play brown (uncorrupted) orcs in future ? Thrall's son was born uncorrupted so if green orc+brown orc =brown orc !! What do you think ?

Could you make a new video about Azshara and the Naga please ???

Ill take my pride on Mage Arcane. One of the strongest classes. The Magna Aegwynn was the only one that fought against Sargeras himself (thought it was just an AVATAR). Just that event tells that arcane is on the same level as fel. But its way more difficult to master. Simple as that :D sorry about my english

I'd love to know how strong shamans are lore wise because pvp wise only the healing tree is strong haha

I got a question actually. I was wondering for some time, what about the Mok´Nathal in the "other" Dreanor? Do we actually know or is it unknown? I mean...Rexxar is around, so the Mok´Nathal do exist in the alternate universe.
