Warlock
Dominate Your Server presents the Warlock class pages with everything you need to stay on top of the Warlock class for total Domination. While we develop our class templates and build pages, here is the very latest information about the Warlock class from Blizzcon 2009 and how they might be changing with the Cataclysm expansion.
Cataclysm News – Warlock
- Soul Shards are no longer in your bags. The goal is to make them fun, not a hassle.
- Soul Shards will be integrated to the user interface. (Just like Death Knight runes)
- You get three shards per fight, they will regen very quickly out of combat.
- It will be possible to get more for long fights or mistakes through Drain Soul.
- Soul Burn (New Spell) : Cost 1 Shard, 30 sec cooldown, off the GCD. Empowers your next spell, many (not all spells) behave differently when empowered.
- Empowered Searing Pain : Next 3 Searing Pains crit
- Empowered Summon Demon : Instant Cast
- Empowered Soulfire : Instant Cast
- Empowered Fear : Instant Cast
- Empowered Death Coil : Longer Horror, more healing received.
- They are only used in combat, summons or demons won’t use your shards.
- Warlock’s survavibility wasn’t really good at the start of Wrath of the Lich King, but they’re in a pretty good place right now.
Mmmm, instant Soul Fire.
you guys seem to be a little behind on posting builds for every class/spec
Where are your builds? I was looking for a warlock build, as I am re-starting my lvl 45 warlock to help a buddy level. Haven’t played him in years, so I was hoping for the current “best leveling build” given all the changes over the last 2 years. But, alas, nothing.
Demo spec is the best used to level.. VW will tank anything, with the glyph its even better. experiment with your channel spells and you can figure out how to solo every hunting quest in outland (except durn of course) and anything in NR that you could be bothered fighting. Also demo spec is where its at apparently at end-game which i just reached on my warlock. hope that helped – Moh of Dath’Remar
