Scourge Soulbinder Warlock by Flambeau(70)

DPS and Party Healer/Buffer

Tiefling is a good race.


Heroic Feats

Toughness:    (3) 9% more hitpoints
Weapon Mastery:   (3) 3% critical increase
Energizing Curse:   (1) 6% more action points from at wills on cursed targets
Empowered Rituals:  (3) encounter powers do 6% more damage.
Determined Casting:   (5) encounter cool downs reduced by 10%
Devastating Critical:   (3) critical severity increased by 15%
Blood Pact of Cania:   (2) 2% increase in bonus damage from CON
Note: The 3 points in Devastating Critical can be put in to Soul Reaping for more survive ability at a reduction in DPS.


Paragon Feats 

Hope Stealer: (5)critical hits = 10 points of life steal / level for 4 secs (700)
Compounded Souls: (5)  chance when striking a target cursed by warlock to gain 5% of warlocks max hp as temp hp to allies near the warlock
Dark Revelry: (5) chance when warlock life steals to grant 20% move speed and power increase to allies near warlock.
Aura of Cruelty: (5) allies within 20’ life steal for 5% more (does not go into your healing stats in reports)
Eldritch Moment: (5) 5% stamina restore each time you take damage (the best of the 2 choices)
Soul Bounding: (1) your life steal now heals allies for 200% of its value and vampiric embrace heals allies for 100% of its value.

  So in summary your encounters are faster, hit harder, and criticals occur more often hitting harder. All of the life steal from the warlokc heals allies 200%. You also have an encounter power heal(Vampiric Em,brace) for 100% of the damage to heal allies.  All allies in 30' gain 5% more life steal for themselves, 20% move speed increase and 20% power increase.
   The remaining Paragon Points go as follows:

Relentless curse: (5) warlock’s cursed targets have a 100% chance of inflicting a nearby target with a lesser upon death.
Syphoning Curse: (5) slayer of a cursed targeted is healed 100% of warlocks weapon damage.
Spirit Fire: (5) foes near your soul puppet suffer 50% of warlocks weapon damage every second.


Explanation

So develop a play style around these key abilities and change out powers if in group or solo.

At Wills:
Hand of blight (heavy damage)use 4 times
Essence defiler (creates soul sparks minor damage)

Encounter powers:
Dreadtheft always (who did not want to be iron man)(AOE)
Fiery Bolt (always a cursed target for 100% damage to everyone in the area)(AOE)
The swappable encounters are:
Vampiric Embrace for extra heals
Killing Flames for a soul puppet
Warlock’s Bargain for extra self-healing
Harrow Storm for more (AEO)

Class Special:
I recommend using a combination of Borrowed Time, Dark Ones blessing and Dust to Dust to keep action points and hit points up.
Daily:
Accursed Soul and any other.

Primary concern of this build is keeping the party alive. So curse everything apply AEO as fast as possible and when all else fails use daily Accursed Souls to heal and put a soul puppet between you and the bad guys. 

Tonight after 9 PM EST I will be on and ready to run Stronghold heroics. So if you want some runes, gear and exp for a low level character see you there.
