Quote:20 seconds is a lot longer than my warlock holds up. I get 1 aoe fear that lasts at best 4 seconds because just about every team has a shaman, and 1 deathcoil. Warlocks are tied with mages for AC. Ice block forces the other team to either change targets, or waste 10 seconds waiting for it to drop.
Seeing as you're doing absolutely jack in those 20 seconds, I don't see how that's any help. They change focus fire, kill the second-softest target, and as soon as the mage's IB is down, switch back. It's something, I suppose, but claiming they have more survivability than, for example, druids...
I didn't say warlocks' survivability was great (though their gear favors stamina much more heavily than mages' do).
