Thanks to the nerf to Thread of Warding (5 seconds for -10 resil is absolutely abysmal), Warlocks have been left with nearly zero forms of survivability on strand.
— The only form of “Survivability” is Weavewalk, which drains your whole melee ability just to get you out of combat (and takes an aspect slot).
— Currently, Warlocks have no sustainable way of getting woven mail.
— No real ways of healing.
While strand is great for locking down rooms and killing bigger enemies, so are the other two classes. Warlocks need at least ONE form of survivability tech in the strand kit. And please don’t give us damage res, you saw how awful it works on Stasis (Plus woven mail already exists).
Given the whole of warlock’s strand kit is based around either suspend or threadling creation, I’d rather it be tied to one of the two. Any ideas are welcome.

Threadlings need to be overhauled on broodweaver. It should honestly be more of a support or hybrid subclass to spice things up, but Bungie hates support subclasses, so it probably won’t happen. I’d like to see threadlings pick up ammo and elemental pickups so you can maybe heal and get woven mail from orbs. For a class that’s about summoning minions, it honestly doesn’t feel like it. You’re better off building into a suspend build than a threadling build, which kind of defeats the purpose of the gimmick.
