Thanks for such an extensive post and thanks to all the other replies as well.  Like I said, this is probably the only character I will end up respeccing.  For now, I am having a blast with him.  I've solo killed level+1 gold dragon elites and level+2 silver.  If I get runners, the usual thought is, "Good, grab another for me so I don't have to go find it myself."  :D I really don't see why more people don't harness the power of the warlock.  Come to the dark side! :ph34r:

I've wondered that for awhile myself. I still haven't seen any argument that has convinced me that even with the bugs that the warlock isn't the most powerful PvE class in the game.

It is the only class that can tank (yes a voidwalker can tank), self heal, has very high (though streaky) single target DPS, has a very powerful AoE, can CC pretty much anything in the game, provide wipe recovery, provide some wipe prevent (health stones), and stop runners. No other class can do that much and the warlock not only can do all that it can be the best at some of those abilities as well. And in PvE you generally do have the prep time to be able to bring whatever aspect you need to the front.

It's an insanely powerful solo and group class.

Warlocks are the most uber class in PvE and they are not highly equipment dependent either for most of the game.
