WoW Forever Warlock Talents Guide
Warlocks come out of the Forever rework with a new Bane of Havoc style tool in Destruction and deeper demon synergy in Demonology. Affliction still wins long fights with Wrack, and healthstones still make everyone your friend.
Warlock Affliction tree in Forever
Wrack joins Shadow Word: Pain-style pressure at the top of the tree, with Shadow Mastery and Soul Siphon multiplying drain value. Nightfall procs keep the rotation surprising. This is the sustained-damage tree.
Wrack1 rank
Shadow Mastery5 ranks
Warlock Demonology tree in Forever
Demonic Pact and Master Demonologist tie your damage to your pet, and Soul Link splits incoming damage with it. The Felguard (if you pick the meta build) tanks your leveling deaths away.
Demonic Pact1 rank
Master Demonologist5 ranks
Warlock Destruction tree in Forever
Incinerate plus Shadow and Flame for direct damage, and Bane of Havoc as a new way to split damage onto a second target. Conflagrate finishes ember windows. Burst tree, simplest rotation.
Incinerate1 rank
Shadow and Flame5 ranks
What Forever changes for Warlock
Bane of Havoc gives Destruction a split-damage tool that Classic never had.
