dudes....55 lock here just sayin that even now i deal top or second damage in BGs for overall damage. and this i my main, we just deal too much damage to be considered bad in any way. even if i die (and i do, alot, ill give that to you) but even if i die, im takin 3, 4 hordies down with me every time. get 3 instant DOTs in em all and then fear em away. pick one, death coil and have my pet on another. go down swingin with direct damage, and i can get several peeps to die by the time i res. i consistently deal 30k more damage than the next peep. twink hunters are the only chars that deal more damage than i do. so stop your bitchin and show some respect. and no one is even talking about how needed locks are in dungeon situations. as long as a lock can manage aggro, we're dealin the most damage to every  beastie in the area. throw our tank minion on a boss and as long as someone (including ourself) can keep the pet alive, were gonna be fine. soul stone the healer, and even if we get caught we're gonna be fine. so like i said: show some respect.
