I found out last wipe, you gotta build strength for demon form, you can end up doing 60-70 per swing with 35ish strength. Edit: Brother! i forgot to mention, you can heal from the bolt of darkness with the ability in demon form too, not just melee attacks.
Just saying you don't need plate to run champion armor for some reason and eldritch>pos>bloodstained blade transfer very well to demon. I've been running it this whipe it's very good and cheap for full legendary set.
Watching this as the warlock/demon buffs are getting patched in is wild. -Warlocks can now use weapons when transformed into demons due to the Bloodpact. -Warlock's Blood Pact loss of health per second has been changed from -1% → -1.5% per second. -Warlock's Dark Offering cooldown time has been changed from 60s → 28s. -Warlock's Life Drain attribute ratio bonus has been changed from 50% → 100%.
@@JonYugen I always thought it was intended because of how bad claws suck without it, but they never added it to the tool tips, what's really curious is the cleric spell that reads the same only counts once.
@@Xobrind you run the plate armor perk but instead of using a full kit you only wear the hounskull and maybe gloves. You run ms for every other piece of gear.
@@ahappyplace6619 Sounds good, but I've always had trouble when it comes to ranged, bards and fighters who run bow against me. I'm still learning the game but I really enjoy this build. Issue is, if I don't normally reach 25% physical resistance i become useless
euthafro could i ask what the different builds are for warlock? Since im new to the game. And since im f2p is it even worth picking warlock since i have limited gear access
I can answer a little, main builds are: Magic heal setup (usually high ms so you can run and cast constantly), next is standard using hydra and life drain to heal, usually you want a similar build speed wise like the magic healer since you are still a caster, both of these setups usually play spells with phantomise, there are also variants of these using boc instead of phantomise, in a previous build video of euth’s there is a solid build he goes through, next would be melee lock(quite weak in my opinion currently after the dmg nerfs) which you would be playing phantomise and boc, next is the setup in this video which is platelock (demon form), basically playing high armour with high health from demon form, and then there’s platelock spell caster, I personally have been having fun playing this recently but I think without good gear it is a little weak. Many combinations for gear, any other questions you may have just reply here and I’ll try to reply back.
^ this is a good answer. Truth is, warlock has the most build options of any class so it’s hard to even list them all. The most popular are torture mastery, life drain hydra, and blow of corruption phantomize. You can check the description for the builds I’ve showcased so far this wipe. I think it’s worth picking warlock as f2p because if you find a nice piece of gear you can probably find a way to build your perks and skills around it. Takes a bit of thought but very rewarding.
Rogue has thrust perk and weak point, war maul has armor pen, barb in general has giga damage. Solos meta is not great for this build but it’s still really fun. That’s only really going to be an issue in high roller though
I know phantomize is good for gap close, but your demon melees are much better with bloodstain blade. It takes your base claw damage from 20 to 30,so a 50% buff
Oh i didn’t realize who this was when i first saw your comment. I have no idea what I’m doing with demon haha I’ve seen you run it without plate but I’m having trouble making it work. Maybe we can chat some time about what I’m doing wrong
my kind of warlock build cause i dont have enough brain cells to kite and just want to go in and ooga booga with big stats fun video. edit: also the portals were removed in the jail cells area (i think) havent seen them spawn there at all and had a similar situation where i was panicking because they hadnt spawned yet.
Rogues play like such pansies, if they'd just commit to a fight they'd kill me every time. But I get one hit off and they immediately give me their back lmfao.
you actually want to stack add phys with a demon form kit, the scaling from 10 all is huge when you are already building mostly strength. i also reccomend throwing away phantomize so you can use BSB and life drain
Strength doesn’t scale added phys, only additional weapon damage or weapon damage from buffs. And the spell version is the typical way but I think I made good use of phantomize. I hate being slow so much that I just couldn’t go without some sort of speed boost
Keep phantomize and drop demon. Spell book, Falchion/heater. Flamewalk in and pain. Use Torture mast, dark reflec, vamp, and bonus will. Flame walk in and curse of pain. Basically you heal most of any damage you take and flamewalking makes it 1v2/1v3 viable since you cant get ran down. If you dont take spell casting you might as well not even run warlock. Every warlock i see taking plate does this style and it doesnt make any sense to me. Curse of weakness barbarians since they can crack you with the sunder attack thing. I like taking hydra as well for bonus healing. End result is a super tanky hellknight. Even if someone hits you it does about even damage to themselves and you're going to heal it back anyways. The gear is also ridiculously cheap compared to normal lock gear since they magic healing and will gear isnt useful for plate wearers.
"look at em hes licking his lips" YOUR COMMENTARY BRO LMAO
Everytime I see kidney in game he always just toxic
AND THE KILL ON THE DUDE ON THE ROPE OMG LMAO
bro called him a sucker and then got clapped while accending
Imagine talking shit to anyone while playing geared barb in solos, that guys a fucking goober
21:20 reminde of the scene in the movie This Is The End when hes going up to heaven talking mad shit and then gets dropped back down.
Loving the content euthafro!! Looking forward to future builds and content.
Euth has got to be the coolest DND player. Never met anyone so humble. Thanks for keeping it real bro.
Yeah the portals in "Cave alter!" / prison area didnt spawn for me either the last couple days.
I wonder if that got fixed with the new patch today
it did
Yes bro! Ive been waiting for some demon mode content! Its so cool even if its not meta

@@The10thTail does eldritch still waste soul collector stacks? That was my only problem with it so I swapped it out on my demon lock build.
doesnt eldritch consume ur stack tho?@@The10thTail
@@Tarrabah I feel the stacks are bait. POS is 15 str 15 vigor.
Thank you for starting out in normals, it's nice to see how it plays for new players testing out the game.

just came to this video and thought the same
FINALLY THE BLOOD PACT VIDEO! I love self casting curse of sacrifice and BSB, it really ratchets up the damage
14:51 He loved casting spells
awesome video tried using demon mode once did not go well. glad you did it some justice lol
yes you finally did a demon form vid!!
Wow that last fight was a nail biter!!! Well fought!!!
first game was close af holy
love the different warlock builds
Favorite video ong. this is a certified Euthafro banger
YAY PLATE WARLOCK BUILD
Trying to play platelock rn, do you think longsword is good on platelock?
I was also sad to see that the blue portals are still random but static same time lol
Take a shield and lantern for caster !!! Switch depending on who you’re up against
Ok i was waiting for this video and you de(vi)livered, like given and well deserved sir keep it up!
16:00 is he saying soul collector stacks give knowledge?
When you go into demon form it consumes soul collector stacks to give you +1 all attributes per stack
Pro tip, bloodstained is bugged with demonform, it gets counted twice and always has.
Is it really still that way? Tf
@@JonYugen I always thought it was intended because of how bad claws suck without it, but they never added it to the tool tips, what's really curious is the cleric spell that reads the same only counts once.

New to the game, why is there no timer showing above the minimap?
That’s a thing in high roller. No kill feed no map timer
@@Euthafro Gotcha, thanks!
sa we neeed true phisycal dmg and will for aura and dark bolts?
Will is just ok, it does give damage to bolt and some magic res, but not that important
Gotta get that baby goin over phantomize!

@@Euthafro hopefully I can buy the game when I get my first job this summer. Thx a lot for helping me
Great video! Possible part 2? 👀
Yeah demon was a lot of fun, i’m going to mess around with it more for sure
You seem to get pretty beat down, do you lose the armor benefits when you change to a demon? Or are they just so geared?
Rogue has thrust perk and weak point, war maul has armor pen, barb in general has giga damage. Solos meta is not great for this build but it’s still really fun. That’s only really going to be an issue in high roller though
Is this still playable after the demon nerfs?
I wouldn’t recommend it. Unless you’re able to corner someone they can just run away and you’re dead in 30 seconds
why dagger and shield?
I like the dagger for mobility. Shield gives you more armor and blocking
Well I can see why I never see the demon form used, that damage is so low wtf
Kidney seems kinda like a little toxic pansy to me tbh
I too am a Demon mode content enjoyer
