'''Warlock''' is the remake of the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' [[multiplayer]] map, ''[[Wizard]]'', added to ''Halo 2'' in the [[Bonus Map Pack]]. It was remade as [[Warlord]] in ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]''. | '''Warlock''' is the remake of the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' [[multiplayer]] map, ''[[Wizard]]'', added to ''Halo 2'' in the [[Bonus Map Pack]].

== | ==Summary== | ||
Warlock is similar to a dungeon, dark and gloomy. A small level, it has four bases close to one another, [[teleporter]]s on all four sides, transporting the player to the opposite side of the arena. In the central cavity is an [[active camouflage]] inside a mid-column bulge. The outer edges are used in each base as a housing for turrets at each base's ledge, accessible by a fan propelling upward. | Warlock is similar to a dungeon, dark and gloomy.

*Shotgun: As with all small levels, the [[M90 shotgun|shotguns]] that [[spawn]] by the teleporters are highly valuable to you. Keep them close and surprise the enemy. Pair it with the battle rifle to make a better combo. | *Shotgun: As with all small levels, the [[M90 shotgun|shotguns]] that [[spawn]] by the teleporters are highly valuable to you.

*[[ | *[[Type-25 plasma rifle|Plasma rifle]] + SMG: Though not an original idea, this combo works and will cause most foes a headache, save for skilled battle rifle wielders who will drop you in a heart beat with just a few careless bursts. On another note, do not attempt the shotgun wielders, as they will normally win when you charge them. | ||

Pair it with the shotgun and a quick reaction time and most enemies can't touch you. | ||
*Dual SMGs: These have a strong advantage over most other weapons because of their long range and ability to wipe out enemy shields extremely quickly. Use them while taking cover by the bases. | *Dual SMGs: These have a strong advantage over most other weapons because of their long range and ability to wipe out enemy shields extremely quickly.

*Plasma grenades: If you're ever out of ammo, or low on ammo, be sure to have a couple of these in your pocket to guarantee safety while you find some much needed ammo, though thanks to the small area of the map, unless you're camping, you should not run out of ammo. If you're good at sticking, you'll live for a long time with these. | *Plasma grenades: If you're ever out of ammo, or low on ammo, be sure to have a couple of these in your pocket to guarantee safety while you find some much needed ammo, though thanks to the small area of the map, unless you're camping, you should not run out of ammo.

*It is said that Warlock is haunted by hanging bats; however, it is not. | *It is said that Warlock is haunted by hanging bats; however, it is not. | ||
*Warlock is one of the more popular ''Halo 2'' levels; it was a popular MLG map, similar to [[Guardian (Level)|Guardian]] in ''[[Halo 3]]''. | |||
*You can get on top of the map simply by using plasma grenades. Hop on the wall that protects the flag and use a plasma grenade to jump up on a ledge nearby. From there, you can use another plasma grenade (make sure to recharge your [[Energy shielding|shields]]) to hop up on another ledge and you can walk around above the map. This can be a great sniping spot if no one notices you. | *You can get on top of the map simply by using plasma grenades.

*The arches and the large dome make the map greatly resemble the interior of a cathedral. This is also stated in the ''[[Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack]]'' manual description of the level by [[Vic DeLeon]]. | |||
