Solar Warlock still feels awful to play

I’ve been trying since Season of the Haunted to find something about Solar Lock that I can enjoy but I just can’t. Solar Lock just feels way to limited in it builds. Star fire is a very strong build, I won’t deny that but it feels like the only really good one.

As many have talked about before, having two aspects devoted to the air doesn’t feel very fun. The harder the content the less you want to be exposed. Being in the air leaves you wide open. I do think that Touch of Flame is pretty good (please buff Firebolt grenades).

I think I was really hoping for Support to be something I could build into. I loved middle tree Solar 2.0 because it felt like it had options. I wasn’t restricted to a damage grenade or a healing, I had both. Benevolent Dawn was actually good and not an awful feeling fragment.

Speaking of fragments, I believe that Solar has the worst fragment options of all subclasses. Why do so many center around ignitions? Why would I ever build the one that gives me increased Recovery and airborne effectiveness when I can throw a healing grenade and extend its regeneration with kills?

Solar just feels the most restricted which, for me, makes it feel the worst. Phoenix Dive has an insanely long cooldown for mediocre effects, Dawnblade is still garbage in PvE (what roaming super is absolutely terrible in PvE though). The whole class is carried by Well being so broken

Am I just building it wrong? I’ve done Sunbracer build, Winters guile, Rain of Fire. Maybe I just don’t like Solar… I used to though…
