Any news on Warlock?

Hello there,
I started playing this game back when it went in open beta.
It was then stated that warlock was supposed to come out close to that time since it was almost done.
I've stopped playing after the big auction house moneybug and the roleback that followed and now I am wondering if there has been any news concerning the release of the warlock class? ( seeing how we are quite some months further into the year ).

I've read that the ranger is coming soon but ye, does anyone know anything at all about when the warlock class is coming or if it is even being tested right now?

    I doubt we will hear anything about the next class until after the HR has been released. The Devs have their hands full with the new class + the new module. As much as I want the Warlock, we just have to be patient.

    Only news on the warlock is that there is a warlock NPC with unique abilities in the Dread Ring area on the preview server. You can play it and find Markos to see some abilities warlock will probably have.
    Neverwinter players are stubborn things....until you strip them down to bone. (Cursed players, my flowers, MINE!) Oh how I plotted their demise.

    The devs have had their hands full? The Devs said warlock was almost ready for release back when the game went into open beta lol.
    Not trying to sound too negative but when something is almost ready for release normally it doesn't get thrown into the shadows for more than half a year and they are even releasing a different class before the warlock now ^^

    Well I still enjoy this game but this warlock is starting to feel like the telepathy rework on champions online ( something that took ages to release and then they decided to only release a small part of it :P )

    The devs have confirmed there is another class in the works that is 50% done. They have also commented that the class is one that has been widely speculated on, on the forums. This leads most people to believe its going to be Warlock.

    However, considering how they seem to be doing Modules. I would not expect to see it, or even hear any concrete news about it. Until Module 3 is ready. Assuming Cryptic holds to their release schedule that would be sometime in Feb or March.

    In response to the above post. Its fairly obvious Ranger took longer then expected. Just going by module themes alone, its fair to say Ranger was most likely planned to be included in the Feywild expansion. And, for what ever reason, slipped. Pushing warlock back. Warlock was most likely planned to be included with Module 2. The whole Theyan wizard theme seems a perfect fit. Instead it seems they are one module off on their class releases.

    I heard the new class was actually a branch for the GF giving them CW capabilities that wouldn't be of any benefit...

    You have two possibilities of classes that are wanted from the PBH1; Paladin and Warlock. Both are equally desired, and of coruse I am sure many want the Dragonborn race. I know I want a longtooth shifter, myself.
