I want Warlocks to rock).  I base my knowledge off the threads I have read here on EnWorld about monster defenses and the thread on DPR.  To my knowledge the math of those posters is correct (I'm an engineer and assuming the base data is correct the math is as well).  I am also relating my in game experience from 3 different Campaigns played in and and several one shots DMed.</blockquote>
