I can't be the only one that finds Bungie's lack of Warlock identity discouraging. Number puddles and brainless automated turrets (in various colors) are not interesting or engaging in the slightest. I truly can't understand why a magic-wielding spellcaster called [i]Warlock[/i], (not Cleric, Priest, or Engineer) was dumped on this path without hesitation or revision.
Along with all the interesting variety of mechanics and synergy plainly missing on Warlock, Broodweaver's Super Needlestorm has really gotten under my skin. It doesn't take much imagination to see it's just an uncontrollable Nova Bomb.. which is itself already tired, as one of the oldest and simplest abilities in the IP's history.
The solution is to just play a different class. But I've spent so much time maining one character, as the designers have deliberately enabled, to restart now. So I'm primarily just playing a different game.
Let me know when all three classes are worth playing. Thanks for reading.

Feels like Strand warlock has zero identity in the live game.
