Come on, warlocks. You have lots of spells. Time to start using them. All of them.

It's true that you can keep soul keeper from being dispelled by darkness or freeze, but that's not as easy to do as you make it sound.
With soul keeper working as a DoT spell, and the low amount of total HP a warlock has, you almost have to cast it in advance, to regenerate damage as you take it. If you freeze your enemy, he won't be dealing damage. You could wait until you're almost dead and then try to soul keeper and freeze him, but if he resists freeze you just screwed yourself - and freeze is easy to stop (DI, defensive stance, madness)
Casting soul keeper in advance isn't much of a problem if you use darkness on your target instead of freeze, but darkness is range 20, and chances are if you darkness someone who was receiving conju support... they're going to make like france and book it.
I agree we have lots of spells, and I do use quite a lot of them already... however there are certain spells you simply must have to be effective, and that limits the variation on setups. The new skill point progression system will make this even more so. While I'd love to use them, "all of them," I'll actually be able to use less of them. The only upside is I won't need to spend points on soul keeper anymore.
