Seen at CES: Warlock vehicle security is overpowered

We knew there wouldn't be much of anything Warcraft-related at CES 2008 worthy of coverage here on WoW Insider, but we kept our eyes open as we scoured the show floor and had a chuckle to stumble upon the Warlock vehicle security systems booth. We don't even want to know what it does to any intruders it detects. If more gratuitous gadgetry is your thing, hit up our sister site Engadget for a literal metric ton of CES news (including the best of the worst).

It probably keeps the intruder fear-locked until the authorities come.

Not just a fear-lock, DoTs too. Added with Death Coil.

And when the authorities come, these 'authorities' are not the police, they are Felguards. Thief's gonna get intercepted no matter how he tries to run.

I play a Warlock and know damn well my class is better than the other 8. The problem is when I actually do lose I feel like something went terribly terrible wrong. Ive trid playing the other class but they don't have the tools or the synergy between there trees like a lock does. It actually gets boring PvPing sometimes.

Theres is on Warlock that I'm glad is overpowered. I'm in the military and we use systems that jam R/C IED's a.k.a Warlock systems. http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/crew-2.htm

These systems put us in a bubble that stops R/C signals from getting to The IED's that are in side our bubble as we drive by them.
