Totally 100% agree with OP and my warlock is fully leveled both spec's and light 29. There is a lot to be said for self res and the 2 seconds it takes to do it, while telling the whole server your doing it.. oh.. hold on.. Nope thats retarded.
At least our special is good we are so much harder to kill when its active.. DAMMIT no still get 1 shot. but i get two grenades to tiggle people with unless i smack one right on the bloke.. then at least i got a postemortem kill out of my special><
Im stuck on my lock in hope of buff. Put so many hours into him and im not gonna quit him, i would rather quit the game.
But wouldn't it be nice if you actually fix/balance it bungie. I know i know... novel idea..><

Always helps to read a post before replying to it. My post is not about nascent class balance. It is purely about armour balance. There is room for improvement and I call on Bungie to balance the example I gave, e.g. by buffing lock chests. The naked classes are well balanced, despite the complexity in doing so. You can pretend that the game's balance is currently perfect if you prefer. Bungie will be making adjustments. Player feedback will inform those adjustments.

If you use damage resistance instead of self revive, radiance is much more useful. Also, unless you are using the sun breaker gauntlets and know how to use solar grenades effectively, you should definitely be using the fire bolt grenades. They are pretty lethal with radiance active and if you use it right, you'll get to throw like 6. Couple that with flame shield and grenades igniting enemies and you can wreak havoc on the whole enemy team
