against locksFollow

Hey jemac. Well warlokcs with their fear lock and loads of Dots on you it becomes pretty hard for any class. I had a few encounters through outland with this same lock, he just feared dot dot dot dot, then death coil and so forth. But when i sprinted at him and got a few seconds close to him he died in matter of seconds. So i guees obviosly you have to get really close really quick.

Try feral charging,(stops casting for 4 secs) and your already directly in front, then after you have hit her a few times and feral charge wears off, hit bash for a decent stun, and to finish them off cat form for a good mangle spam if your 50and thier pretty much dead. If not and you think you will be feared put your bleeds on him and while your being feared away he will lose quite a bit of health so NOW he should be dead hopefully.
Sorry for the rabble but i find thats what i do again st them.

If he get's the opener, you're usually toast. If you get the opener and have your pvp trinket ready, then you have a good chance. Ofc i have maim. You may not be high enough to have that yet, but it's wonderfull to have a new interrupt for when pounce wears off. Usually i pounce, mangle, shred and then he death coils me. After coil wears off you get the fear, and that's when you use you trinket, sprint in and maim him. He should be pretty close to death by then, so hope you can finish him off fast before he gets off another fear.

Watch out for locks with a felhunter out, since they will have a good chance of spotting you from a distance. A felhunter on aggresive is a good way to ruin your day :P

Another scenario if the lock is suspecting an attack is a parked fel guard. When you attack, the fel guard charges you and ruins your nice mangle, shred combo. Nothing to do about it except wait until he's not suspecting an attack, or chose another target to kill. It sucks too much to walk into an abvious trap. Don't play him on his terms! It's a close battle even if you get the opener.

yes constantly fearing and dotting is the most noob thing a lock can do.

same as a mage constatly sheeping when the target is at low hp or using imp cs at the begining of the fight
same as a warrior running away till hes out of combat jsut to charge
same as a rogue blowing premed, jsut to vanisha nd re stunlock u but it not last and then get pwned
same as a shaman using WF totem in a group with hunters and druids



a good lock wins a battle without fear, if u need to use fear your doing something wrong, or your fighting a rogue

A good pala can win without using his bubble too, but does he use it anyway? Ofc he does. A good mage can win without pow pyro og elemental, but does he use them anyway? ofc he does. Don't whine about locks using dots and fear to kill you.

I don't feel any better after beeing drain tanked to death by a lock, than i do after beeing fear kited to death, so stop bothering about how he kills you and start working on what you can do to kill him first!

Our HoT's can outheal a locks DoT's. If you have some time just toy with him and heal yourself. Usually you want the quick kill though, if he spots you go to kitty, dash, and try to get some hits in before the inevitable fear, dot, dot....you'd think they'd have other moves.

im not say dont use fear,

but whats worse than standing htere getting beat on, specially by a kitty with a 1s attack sped and getting knock back on fear.

thats why iHot is great whilst they are feared pwn with sb's, as they run back and start whailing on you, DC them

i am a lock, and chain fearing is noobish..live with it,end of, move on.

im glad for DR, so when i come up against another lock and they fear me to hell and i still wipe the floor with them its even more satisfying



fear a warrior...in pvp, gl with that, in pvp my warrior has 4, yes count them, 4 ways of breaking fear. DC, CoEx kiting is a more viable option

having played as and against locks at 70, you learn who the noobs are quickly.
