Empower Darkness: Dark Magic perk, requires Empowered Spells
(Mass) Decay, Frenzy, Blindness, Puppet Master, Curse of the Netherworld and Vampirism gain the Empowered versions which cost double mana, but have 50% more effective Spellpower. Moreover, the other Dark Magic spells (including their mass versions) will cost only 75% of their original mana.
(that mana reduction for the other spells is because their spellpower doesn't do anything at all except the duration which is already too high)
Power of the Elements: Destructive Magic perk, requires Elemental Vision
All elements will trigger on every other element except itself and not only on the opposite element. For example, Fire will trigger elemental chains on Air, Earth and Water, but not Fire.

I see that most of you are creating perks which makes spells of Warlock even more deadly as they are, Ill try sth else
Art of assassination - Attack
Requires:
Attack Tactics
LogisticsScoutingSilent Stalker
Improves Invisibility ability.Invisibilty ability doesnt waste users turn. Whats more if invisible creature is "detected" it will counterattack before the enemy. Invisible creatures gains +2 speed bonus.
Elemental Symbiosis - Destruction
Requires:
DestructionMaster of FireSecrets of Destruction
SummoningMaster of Life
Irresistible MagicElemental Vision
Warlock can cast Destruction spells on his own units healing and ressurecting them if they are of the same element as the casted spell at the moment of casting. The power of healing and ressurecting is the original damage of spell divided by half. It works with Black Dragons. If the spell is area - based it will heal allies and inflict damage on enemies at the same time.

Last day for Dungeon. The ICTC contest has swept the coliseum and so we'll wrap up this contest with Sylvan.

Man, a lot of these perks were just burning with awesomeness. This was a complete redemption from the long line of boring perks from the Haven round.

Cycle of Destruction
Well, I suppose it’s not any more devastating than Ignite. I still think it merits having 2 destruction perks for prereqs though, but I’m not going to cut you too badly.
Creativity: 6
Realism: 8
=14
Shadow of Doom
These perks are supposed to be based on the H5 system, but I’ll let it slide. Either way, this perk is a lot like ”Irresistible Magic” in perk form, so I can’t give you much for creativity. Also, the 2nd part of the spell doesn’t seem like it relates to the first part, and feels like 2 perks jammed together into one.
Creativity: 3
Realism: 6

=23
Mamgaeater
Geomancy - summoning
Oooooo. Very very cool. Awesome tie in with the elemental chains for Warlock, that is clever. I also love the name of the perk; it’s classic and deserves to be tied into Heroes somewhere. Unfortunately, it’s a tad crappy for as heavy as the prereqs are.
Creativity: 10
Realism: 8
=18
Dark chains
Another sweet tie in with the elemental chains. I love these two perks because they open up more strategy, and yet at the same time they’re simple. This is ideal: dynamic, fun, and simple at the same time. I don’t see a need for Dark Magic to be a prerequisite because that would just be annoying and make it too rare/underpowered, so I approve the of the prereqs. Very well done.
Creativity: 10
Realism: 10
=20
Total = 38
Broadstrong
Postgraduate Studies
This ability is so weird, I don’t even know what to make of the first ability. A perk that gives extra bonuses when visiting a Library of Enlightenment? The 2nd ability would be more fitting as a unique racial perk, and it’s just too weird to work as an ability, aside from the fact that with the right amount of knowledge, you could get a pretty beastly bonus to your defense. The warlock is going to have enlightenment for enhanced stats to begin with, and although their knowledge is fairly low, any ability can get impressively high with the right artifacts.
Creativity: 6
Realism: 3
= 9
Further Un-aid
This is a unique perk that requires two different skills that are rare for the Warlock, which means this perk is going to be obscenely rare. The name of this perk is horrible. Just the same, I like it. I always thought the Plague Tent ability would make more sense if it actually used “Decay” on their subject instead of just blasting them with direct damage. Very dynamic and yet simple.
Creativity: 8
Realism: 9

Empowered Darkness
Incorporating empowered spells with dark magic was a cool move. Simple, and yet dynamic. This will add some fun new strategies for going dark magic. The 2nd ability was unnecessarily shoved in and doesn’t correlate with Empowering Darknesss.
Creativity: 10
Realism: 8
= 18
Power of the Elements
This sounds decent. I’m not super wild about it because it would decrease the strategic aspect of Elemental Vision since you’d be triggering them 3/4th of the time now, but the balance aspect of it seems solid.
Creativity: 8
Realism: 8
= 16

Arcax
Art of assassination
What’s this? A non-magic perk?  This sounds like a spiffy perk, and a lot of you guys have been nailing these perks when it comes to making them dynamic and yet simple. Saving a turn is certainly valuable, and getting that free attack when revealed is also highly useful. All around, I love this perk. The prereqs are perfect.
Creativity: 10
Realism: 10
= 20
Elemental Symbiosis
Freaking sweet. The idea of the perk itself is possibly my favorite of all the perks, unfortunately I have some balance issues with it. I can see why you wanted to cut the effectiveness in half given how powerful this could be, but considering you have a ¼ chance of matching up with the element, you’re going to have difficulty healing the creatures you want as it is, so I actually think you could get away with keeping the healing at 100% effectiveness.
Creativity: 10
Realism: 7
= 17
Total = 37
Fauch
Master of earth
What’s this??? A master of earth! An early game meteor shower with Swift Mind is going to be more devastating than ever before with this perk. But that’s Swift Mind’s fault for being a stupid perk. It seems odd that Master of Earth would be a unique perk, but since Dungeon is the master of elements, it’s fitting that they would have it. Simple, yet spiffy.
Creativity: 8
Realism: 10
= 18
Mana flare
*strokes beard* Brilliant. Once again, almost everybody has harmonized their perks to be both simple and dynamic. This adds a new layer of depth to the elemental chains. It seems pretty well balanced too, although this perk is difficult to determine without doing a thorough test.
Creativity: 10
Realism: 10
= 20

Nature Regeneration: Defense perk, requires Resistance and Master of Blessings
All creatures in hero's army regenerate 40% of their total hit points every turn (pretty much like regeneration). It does stack with Regeneration.
Nature's Call: Summoning Magic perk, requires Master of Conjuration and Master of Life
Hero gains Wasp Swarm, Summon Hive, and a Mass Wasp Swarm spell which costs 10 Mana but has a 3x3 area radius. Summon Hive spell gains a +5 effective Spellpower as well.
(imagine this with Rain of Arrows lol but Master of Life sucks though, which is why I used it as a prereq...)

Necromancy ward
Under summonning.
Requires summonning advanced, master of life, light magic basic.
Prevent the use of raise dead (even for your hero, and creatures such as lichmaster) additionaly, your creatures cost 10% more dark energy points to be raised.
obviously, it's mainly useful against necromancers. note that you can still use resurrection.
Druidic studies
Under summoning.
Requires summoning advanced, master of conjuration.
Your hero learn the spell "summon elementals" and can now choose which kind of elementals he wants to summon. If you have the "fire warriors" perk, the 40% bonus will apply to all kind of elementals (not only the fire ones)

Here I am, again!
1)Irollan's Last Hope: When defending During Sieges, the Ranger is able to controll the Arrow Towers.

Additionally, all allied creatures gain +5 to Defence and +1 to Morale During any battle fought by this Hero.

The Spell is one of the following: Divine Strength, Haste, Cleansing, Endurance, Righteous Might, Deflect Missile or Ressurrection.

I don't feel the perk is too powerful, if compared with master of fire. only meteor shower will make it very powerful. it would be the same thing with master of fire + armaggeddon + magma dragon.
and swift mind isn't a bad perk to have with it. with a single stone spikes, you can make sure the enemy dragons won't reach you in the 1st turn.
