Quote:Dark Pact was the "killing your units for health" ability. It's also a Warlock ability. The idea of a tanky-DPS hybrid that's evil incarnate would basically be a warlock in plate without a pet.
I would say since WoW Dark Pact returns mana and not health, it is actually the Lich ability "Dark Ritual" - that ability returns mana and not health, although it drains health and not mana. The warlock and lich abilities also share an icon. I would say, the name not withstanding, there is still room in the game for an ability where you drain an ally's (rogue's) life. Wacking the rogues might synergize well with the improvements to lightwell and circle of healing.
