Warlock self-res is a crutch for the weak.
Seriously.
What use is it outside of PvP?
That's right - people who struggle to stay alive can have a second chance at dying again. Give me a Warlock whose build is based around staying alive any day of the week. A Warlock using self-res is basically waiting to die. They're holding the rest of the team back. They don't generate orbs unless they die. They don't activate supers unless they die. They're basically a drain on DPS and team strategy/cohesion. If you're a Warlock with self-res, [i]you're letting your team-mates down[/i].
When recruiting for Raids, I ask people if they use self-res and then turn them down if they say yes. I want my Warlocks to be team-players, not people concerned only about themselves.
[spoiler]It's not really any use in PvP either.[/spoiler]
Edit: apologies if I've stopped replying to someone in particular, this forum makes it impossible to look through everything and keep up with every conversation.
Edit 2: Next week on Ackter Provokes: The Gjallarhorn and how if it was suddenly removed, 99% of players would no longer be able to beat anything!

Oh no, something is useful! Bungie pls nerfz, much OP. The sunsinger class' super is basically useless unless you have the self revive. The most it does outside of that is give you "unlimited grenades and melee". There are damage reducing buffs, but they do crap. The good thing about it is that it can save a wipe in: raids, nightfalls, or other shadow zone areas. And it's actually the least selfish super. All but 2 supers are attack, while only the titan shield and warlock self revive are support. Just because you don't like something, or you were beaten by it doesn't mean you should shun it or try to get rid of it. I've played with all the supers (even though I haven't gotten all the supers on MY characters), and I can say that none of them are too powerful or too useless.
