Play the Warlock
On this page
The Warlock is the new class in this release, described as a master of shadow who turns the power of the Burning Hells against itself.
Three paths, three jobs
The class commands forbidden power through three unique paths. Demon focuses on enslaving hellspawn and binding them into loyal, fearsome allies that fight at your command, which is the option for a player who wants company in a fight rather than a bigger swing.
Eldritch and Chaos
Eldritch channels searing mental magics into ordinary weapons, transforming them into conduits of devastating force. Chaos unleashes the raw elements of Hell, fire and shadow, allowing you to rain elemental destruction upon your enemies from afar. One path turns your gear into the weapon; the other keeps the fight at range.
The class arrives with an overhaul
The Warlock comes as part of the Reign of the Warlock DLC, which the store also describes as bringing an overhauled endgame, fresh mechanics and modern quality-of-life updates. Learning the class and learning the new endgame are therefore the same project rather than two separate ones.
The endgame it lands in is covered in taking on the overhauled endgame. The players you meet there are covered in running the eight-player ladder.
