Warlocks don't really need a store bought pet, but as far as defensive spells go, what with the MASSIVE amount of magic reaching weapons in the game now, anybody with half of a brain can destroy a warlock. I'd give a warlock roughly 4 hits before they'd die. I mean Jesus, I can name roughly 7 battle-whips that do magic damage and reach. And that's just one type of weapon.
So you want to be completely out of harms way from all melee classes now? Sorry this argument of yours farther proves Warlocks don't deserve store boughts with their elemental. You'd just render them impossible to kill with no fear of being bashed/tripped. Only thing they'd have to worry about is a backstab from a magic damage stabby weapon.
