==A.I. Ability Order==
Note: If party has high Defense the Warlock will prefer Ghost Haste first over the other attacks.
==Tactics==
Use the Slow (-35% Speed) or Snare buff (-80% Speed until hit) to slow down their attacks. To damage Warlocks effectively, use Physical attacks. As for any other element, use piercing attacks and abilities that apply the Breach buff (-50% Defense). 
Additionally, Warlocks are vulnerable to DOT (Damage Over Time) abilities such as Sear or Venom Claw due to their high speed and consequent frequent turns. The advantage of using a DOT ability on a Warlock is that the damage is consistent and only demands a single turn of yours to damage them for a few of their turns. Wound also proves effective in killing Warlocks quickly. 
If possible, consider casting Blind (50% hit chance for 3 turns) with Haze on Warlocks just before they're about to attack with Shadow Spear for the first time. This will potentially make them miss their most dangerous attack while also possibly making them miss the Shade Strike that Warlocks usually follow up with 2 turns after their first Shadow Spear. Combining Blind with Slow or Snare is also effective in dealing with Warlocks. 
==Trivia==
*The player can randomly gain one of the following tips when being defeated by, or retreating from, this unit:
**"Warlocks have strong defense against non-physical elements."
**"The Shadow Spear ability deals percentage damage based on the target's current health."
**"The Shade Strike attack will ignore the target's defense and restore Focus to the caster."
*Warlocks, along with Shredders, have the highest Defense Mod (2) out of all Normal type enemies that the player encounters in Normal type stages, as well Normal type enemies that acts like minions to a (mini)boss.
