Drasca,
That was flat-out one of the best posts I have EVER read that describes what it is to be a Warlock. I often state that Warlocks are the most challenging yet most rewarding classes in the game, but can never seem to explain why. The joy of wiping out a whole camp of mobs in one solo fight vs the annoyance of being obliterated by a particular mob/player because you weren't set up for it. The sheer pleasure of feeling like a general the way you can control the flow of a whole battle with your pet, curses, and crowd control, followed by the pain of being killed in 2.5 seconds by a rogue or being unable to provide any significant damage to a target *quickly* like other classes can.
Warlocks are truly unique, but they weren't ready for release in beta and they still aren't ready. But thanks for this excellent post that sums it all up so well!
