From the Everquest 2 player manual: "Those who desire to wield the dark forces of poison and decay to cripple and obliterate their foes will find the Warlock profession to be ideal. Wielding curses, summoning minions from the abyss, and calling upon the destructive forces of the void and the darkness, these mages are most effective when they rain down debilitation and damage upon entire groups of enemies at once."

General

The primary stat of the Warlock is Intelligence, to increase spell damage. The Warlock may use only cloth armor. Weapons wielded include daggers, staffs, and symbols. Only symbols may be used in the shield slot. Adept III spells are crafted by a Sage using the rare soft metal mined from stone.

Warlocks are best known for their target encounter DPS.
