This is a guest post submitted by Mekagojira, a fellow warlock who is looking for reasons why guilds like mages so much! If you want your thoughts published, you’re welcome to submit your own post ! And be sure to post a comment below. Using Wowjutsu.com , a guild progression ranking site, I have looked at the top 10 ranked guilds on EU realms. Out of a total 683 characters who are level 80 in those top guilds, we find 42 warlocks. That’s roughly 6% warlocks all in all. Considering there’s 10 classes to pick & choose from, we can un-mathematically clearly see that we are under-represented (bring the player, not the class) The guilds I looked at seem to have roughly twice as many Mages as they have Warlocks. It’s hard accounting say Shamans, Priests and Druids since they are quite often healers rather than DPS, so I picked Mages since they are the only other ‘pure’ caster DPS class that applies. And now ladies and gentlemen, the sad news. Seeing that we’ve so far only accounted for characters at level 80 who happen to be in one of the top 10 guilds on EU realms, lets crunch the numbers to see how many Warlocks these guilds decided to bring on the current end-game raids. I’ve only counted the 25-man versions of Naxxramas and The Eye Of Eternity. (I.e. Heroic raids) Total numbers of Warlocks ranked: NAX: 32 MAL: 8 .. I’m sorry? If we unscientifically say that all 10 guilds only went once, there should be at least 250 players with The Eye Of Eternity, and we got 8 locks in there? I don’t know about you guys, but I’m going to sit here with my imp and QQ until Ghostcrawler decides to nerf us even more. Post from: Yet Another Warlock Nerf .
