Crystal of Atlan Warlock build
The Warlock is a class you can play if you selected the Magister, and it's considered one of the best classes in Crystal of Atlan. It's quite strong in PvE, but it truly shines when it comes to PvP. We'll take a look at a Warlock build in Crystal of Atlan, so you can get a clearer idea of what skills to pick and what stats to focus on.
About the Warlock in CoA
The Warlock, although it is an advanced Magister class (a.k.a. Mage), has quite a different play style from the other two you can play, Elementalist and Magician. This one plays more like an assassin, having mostly melee attacks that deal high burst damage.It has AoE skills, making it viable for both PvP and PvE, but it also has some sustain, which can come in handy during battle. Let's take a look at an example of a Warlock build that many players recommend:
Best Warlock builds in Crystal of Atlan
Since you can only have 4 active skills + 1 finisher (totalling 5 skills), here are a couple of build examples you can try out!Early game build
- Shadow Bolt
- Curse of Agony
- Dark Pulse
- Life Drain
- Forbidden - Obliteration (Finisher)
Make sure you get all the passives and level them up too. They will grant you additional power.
Mid-game build
- Gift of the Raven
- Harvest Soul
- Soul Banishment
- Demonbark Burst
- Forbidden - Obliteration (Finisher)
In the mid-game, it can be fun to play around with Resentful Curse, so you can practice it for the late game. In the late game, you want to stack it as much as possible on the enemies, and then detonate it with Demonbark Burst.
Late game build
Row 1:
- Styxian Illusion
- Hand of Calamity
- Harvest Soul
- Demonbark Burst
- Forbidden - Darknight Apostle
Row 2:
- Chaos Tide
- Soul Crusher
- Magic Feathers
- Dark Vortex
- Forbidden - Obliteration
Once you reach the end game, your build should look something like this. You will have the Darknight Apostle finisher, which constantly applies Resentful Curse to the enemies and increases the damage they take when you activate Demonbark Burst.
- Styxian Illusion
- Demonmark Burst
- Hand of Calamity
- Soul Crusher
- [FINISHER ]Forbidden - Darknight Apostle
- Chaos Tide
- Demonmark Burst
What stats should you prioritise on the Warlock?
The main stats you want to pay attention to (and ideally stack) are MATK and MCrit. These are ideal for the Warlock, since his attacks can already deal a lot of burst damage, and if you manage to crit as well, the numbers will be off the charts.Best weapons for Warlock in CoA
As an end-game weapon, there are several choices. Some of them are more accessible, while others are a bit more...difficult to get. I've listed them all below:
- Sacrasilver Focus (costs 300 Magitrite Particles) - a good lvl 55 weapon, which grants a lot of MATK and MCrit, as well as some Intelligence, and it grants level 1-20 skills +1.
- Miragegold Focus (costs Sacrasilver Focus + 200 Magitrium) - it's also a lvl 55 weapon, and it grants stats similar to Sacrasilver Focus (but higher), and it grants level 1-40 skills +1.
- THE BEST: Tenebrous - Vuthe of the Void (obtained from Eye of the Void Dragon, which is exchanged from Epic Warlock Shards, and upgraded several times) - this weapon is the absolute best, since it grants you cooldown on the Finisher, as well as incredible stats.
Best gear set for Warlock
The best gear is extremely difficult to get, but it grants you an additional +1 to the Warlock skills. It is the Silent Feather set. It is upgraded from the Nocturnal Quill set, and it is the one you should try to obtain.
- Best Talisman: Adjudicator's Talisman
- Best Seal: Adjudicator's Seal
- Best Ring: Adjudicator's Ring > Vindicator Ring
- Best Necklace: Adjudicator's Necklace > Vindicator Necklace
- Best Bracers: Adjudicator's Bracers > Vindicator Bracers
