Update, if leveling Aff(which I suggest) I'd put the last 5 into Imp Drain Life, instead of Fel Conc. You get Haunt right away and Chaos Bolt early and Master Channeler mid, so you don't need Fel Conc. Hope you guys enjoyed the video. I put a ton of time into it to try and make it nice to watch.

been leveling as affliction with haunt and master channeler, the healing and damage is really strong and the sustain is really good I haven't had to eat or drink once.
A slight note on Curse of Agony, when you hit lvl 18 and get the second rank it is very much worth using it. You won't have as overpowered a wand at this level and mobs generally live quite a bit longer than the early levels. You will get plenty of damage out of that GCD, and you really shouldn't have any mana problems (even without Life Tap, at lvl 18 you can't go OOM as a warlock). I'd also use it a bit prior to 18, especially when pulling two mobs. This way it will get good value on the second mob. If you want to really min/max, get a damage meter and try the rotation with Agony. See how much damage it does - if it is more than a single wand attack, then it was worth using a GCD. If not, then skip it and try again at a later level or when fighting tougher mobs. Still a good point that you shouldn't use it mindlessly, though! There are certainly many times where it will deal so little damage that the GCD is better used wanding.
I have been watching your content for some time now. Your videos are by far the best value due to your commitment to quality information, great “how to” demonstrations, no BS, and above all, you don’t waste my time with fluff content. Thank you for your choice to “be better” than other content creators, you can easily tell you put in the time and effort.
I really appreciate that. That actually mean a lot. Ones like these take me awhile to do, but become fun when I see people enjoy them. Big cheers and good luck with launch my friend.
Great video man 100%:)! Well explained and not just meant to new players but also players that may not be familiar with WOW for a couple years. I’ve not played since the start of Mist of Pandaria (may have misspelled that). Keep making great content like this and better, you’ll be blessed and be paid. You’ve convinced me to buy myself a computer instead of a PS5 and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
As a long-term drain tanker, that's very interesting. Those extra points will come in handy! Might be nice to dump them into demonic embrace for a bigger mana/health pool
i would LOVE to lvl as Detsro so i can one tap ppl on the pvp servers and i m rly bored of the affliction lvling. Not sure if i can cope with the mana tho.
i cleared nax back in the day, was older around 28, after that i did P server , Nos, Elysium, Lh, and all the rest, im gona chill 2 night playing the first night is pretty much 5-6 hours to 10 il play on friday. But honestly i wanted more out of a classic + game, wanted warlocks to get more skills and i also been intresed in shadow p Lore, its lock or shadow p for me if shadow p´s gets some sort of mp5 improvment. ill roll that.
Hey thanks for the guide. I'm an old, old Vanilla Warlock returning for SoD, so it's good to have a refresher. Speaking of refreshing... do you think it will be worth speccing out of Improved Corruption at endgame if you go with Everlasting Affliction, since mobs will live longer, and you'll likely only be putting on bosses once at the start, or maybe on a phase change?
I might have missed in the comments and im not sure if Blizzard changed it but: Curse of recklessness breaks fear. A good way to yo yo mobs and prevent adds
Once you start tanking yes we'll change talents around. I'll have a video on it in a couple days. I wanted more info. Rather than just make a video about shit we don't know, like everyone else
why do you think mining is slow to level? get maybe 5 ore from a node, 3 or 4 skill ups per node. Then you smelt it, 1 skill up for each smelt. It goes pretty fast by comparison to others.
I only meant slow you down if you're speed leveling. And only because a ton of people will be mining IMO. Plus the act of mining itself just slows you down leveling.
Depends. Usually solo I like to grind mobs. I'll start, sell all my stuff for Immolate, then get my Imp right away, then go off in the distance and solo grind. But also you can just party up with anyone to do the easy kill quests too to help.
I'd probably 5 into Imp Corruption, 2 into Imp Life Tap since you'll be draining mana so much from spamming Searing Pain. And either 5 into Demonic Embrace and HS. Or Imp DL if we can get Master Channeler. I kind of like Cata for some slight mana since spamming Searing Pain as well, but not 100% sure.
with master channeler i feel like its going to be a bait rune, i very much doubt it will tick every second and will most likely be every three seconds leaving it still only hit five times like it would just draining and will cost twice as much, heal less and take three times as long to run down, that and if resisted its not available for fifteen seconds
hopefully I'm wrong that would be good, I'm also hoping that the lake of fire rune can trigger from grenades as they deal fire damage and that could help hold agro on multiple mobs at once helping with the AOE threat a bit, i do agree that master channeler would be good in PVP though and since you said it triggered often maybe you could just fear the mob with drain life on it and wand down another. Also do you ever think there would be a time for tanking to not take master demonology and use soul link with an imp that's phased out so it doesn't take damage instead its only the 30% reduced from soul link and you could apply fire shield from the imp for a bit more threat too@@CrixGuides
Agony should inly be used when there are multiple enemies or a big one, then ull want to use it and use it first so it can ramp up.,otherwise corruption only. Agony wastes too much mana when u go one mob by one. Haunt first so it heals more i think, health = mana w warloch so u can keep going
Never played Warlock before couldnt decide what to play. Friend told me about the succubus and I immediately was down. Why does nobody ever mention you get a succubus?
Payed WOW since launch (havent mained lock since vanilla though) didnt know about the AOE way to seperate pacs thx a lot guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Hej crix.❤ Not 100% relavant for this fase but comming next fase it might start to become. Could you do a info guide on armor how much for difrent % damage reduction and how that will work with damage reduction from having voidwalker active with demonoligy build and soul link active. Info is sparse, so would be realy nice to know more for us warlock tanks. Again thx so much for your work so far ❤
@@CrixGuides Ight I will too. Was debating w/ warrior. Played lock all classic and wanted to switch up but may as well main to see the changes. See u launch!
Haunt or Chaos Bolt both are really good and all you need. Haunt is a little better since it heals you and you can keep pulling longer. But I prefered CB

Can you show me your build
A slight note on Curse of Agony, when you hit lvl 18 and get the second rank it is very much worth using it.

You are the ONLY man whose lock guide I would trust!
You're too kind my guy
I second this
I agree
Mines better. Already cleared BRD Locktankin, got all runes

Solid info for a returning casual. Thanks!
Crix your Warlockvids make me feel so peacefull! Thanks m8
only person on the planet that has made a straight forward video about this topic. thank you that is all.
I had no idea what suppression actually did, pretty new to the game so this guy is amazing ty.
Thanks man, been waiting all month for this.
It’s gonna be crazy on launch! Really looking forward to it.
Crix my guy, let's get this SoD content pumping bro
This video has been critical for me the last 2 days
I haven't played WoW since it first dropped. Thanks for this great guide. I'm pretty pumped about rocking Warlock in SoD.
NP! GL!
Awesome video Crix and happy late bday. Video is quality, cheers
Thank you!
Got Chaos Bolt and Demonic Grace early, I've been having a good time
Where did you get those?
@@seventhsebas7389 It's race dependent, there's guides out for it now, if you're a human I know how to do both, other races, not sure
In Crix we trust. Can’t wait to game bro
I'll be doing a mix of aff and demo. 5/5 imp corr > 5/5 embrace > 5/5 imp drain > 1/5 supp.
Hell yeah! Will be a fun time. Especially with the world being buffed
19:03 crix just wants to see us run around in undies
Guilty as charged
Default UI is pretty good.
Please make a guide like this for each class!!
Ud for me seems by far the best for pvp phase 1, binding taunt is such a good tip lol nice

ok the .50 Cal wand made me giggle
with the new drain life rune that turns drain life into a dot you can ditch fel concentration and go for improved drain life if you want
As a long-term drain tanker, that's very interesting. Those extra points will come in handy! Might be nice to dump them into demonic embrace for a bigger mana/health pool

FIRE DESTRO IS ABOUT TO BE AMAZING!!
crix can share weakauras that show moving rotation spells . u cast in ur set up, very good lock guide. ty for good work crix
How does Haunt change affliction leveing rotation? Andy advice? Tnx for the videos it did make me level a lock and i love it
Awesome video!
Awesome video again bro
Very solid guide
Thank you!

It could very well be possible yeah! Free extra 5 points. Altho you usually would put arleast a couple in to drop down a tier.
Im so excited to come home and play warlock
Yo man very well made guide. Thanks.
is there anything differnent i should do if i want to tank as warlock? im guessign we will get meta rune 20+ tho
Not really. Just slap Mete Rune on and pump
This was so good
I might have missed in the comments and im not sure if Blizzard changed it but:
Curse of recklessness breaks fear. A good way to yo yo mobs and prevent adds
Are talents going to be altered to work around the new tanking rune?
Once you start tanking yes we'll change talents around. I'll have a video on it in a couple days. I wanted more info. Rather than just make a video about shit we don't know, like everyone else
Hes da warlock u made me pick it as my main ever since classic came out
Cheers brother
why do you think mining is slow to level? get maybe 5 ore from a node, 3 or 4 skill ups per node. Then you smelt it, 1 skill up for each smelt. It goes pretty fast by comparison to others.
I only meant slow you down if you're speed leveling. And only because a ton of people will be mining IMO. Plus the act of mining itself just slows you down leveling.
What's the strat for getting ahead of the pack on launch?
Depends. Usually solo I like to grind mobs. I'll start, sell all my stuff for Immolate, then get my Imp right away, then go off in the distance and solo grind. But also you can just party up with anyone to do the easy kill quests too to help.
Good stuff😊
Question? Why spec 5 points into Fel Concentration for the Affliction Build if your goal is to get Master Channeler Rune?
I didn't know that Master Channeler was going to be that easy to get early
What spec would you suggest leveling as if we do end up getting meta somewhat early on?
I'd probably 5 into Imp Corruption, 2 into Imp Life Tap since you'll be draining mana so much from spamming Searing Pain. And either 5 into Demonic Embrace and HS. Or Imp DL if we can get Master Channeler. I kind of like Cata for some slight mana since spamming Searing Pain as well, but not 100% sure.
Someone leveled with chaos bolt and knows whether it's better/ quicker than affli?
Nice guide dude
with master channeler i feel like its going to be a bait rune, i very much doubt it will tick every second and will most likely be every three seconds leaving it still only hit five times like it would just draining and will cost twice as much, heal less and take three times as long to run down, that and if resisted its not available for fifteen seconds
I mean they showed footage at Blizzcon, it does insane healing and with master Channeler rune you take Haunt for an additional DoT being empowered.
I played the demo at Blizzcon and the healing wasn't like a ton, but it was often. I think it'd be amazing for leveling, since we drain tank
hopefully I'm wrong that would be good, I'm also hoping that the lake of fire rune can trigger from grenades as they deal fire damage and that could help hold agro on multiple mobs at once helping with the AOE threat a bit, i do agree that master channeler would be good in PVP though and since you said it triggered often maybe you could just fear the mob with drain life on it and wand down another. Also do you ever think there would be a time for tanking to not take master demonology and use soul link with an imp that's phased out so it doesn't take damage instead its only the 30% reduced from soul link and you could apply fire shield from the imp for a bit more threat too@@CrixGuides
Hello, can u tell me if demo pets spec is a viable build? thank you
Yes it's viable. It's just not as strong ad Aff or Fire Destro
Do you think a demonic pact buff spec will be viable even if warlock pets don't end up scaling?
It will be hard unless they give us avoidance on pets. Otherwise the pets will die to like everything.
Corruption first or agony first? Does it matter? Also when do you use haunt, after dots are up?
Agony should inly be used when there are multiple enemies or a big one, then ull want to use it and use it first so it can ramp up.,otherwise corruption only. Agony wastes too much mana when u go one mob by one.
Haunt first so it heals more i think, health = mana w warloch so u can keep going
I'm with you that we probably wont get Meta rune early. But by God I came up with a talent build for Meta aoe grinding just in case lol
Hell yeah nice!
Never played Warlock before couldnt decide what to play. Friend told me about the succubus and I immediately was down. Why does nobody ever mention you get a succubus?
Payed WOW since launch (havent mained lock since vanilla though) didnt know about the AOE way to seperate pacs thx a lot guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.
What is the weak aura for the dot tracker?
Hi! Thanks a lot for the guides!!
Could you please share your's WA profile?
Hej crix.❤
Not 100% relavant for this fase but comming next fase it might start to become.
Could you do a info guide on armor how much for difrent % damage reduction and how that will work with damage reduction from having voidwalker active with demonoligy build and soul link active. Info is sparse, so would be realy nice to know more for us warlock tanks.
Again thx so much for your work so far ❤
You going lock at start crix?
Yup! Super excited.
@@CrixGuides Ight I will too. Was debating w/ warrior. Played lock all classic and wanted to switch up but may as well main to see the changes. See u launch!
Hi I just started a warlock, what runes do you recommend for leveling now?
Haunt or Chaos Bolt both are really good and all you need. Haunt is a little better since it heals you and you can keep pulling longer. But I prefered CB
Here it is locky boys
You the best 🧙♂️
Master Channeler is busted! You can Life Tap infront of mobs attacking you and still have sustain
Gotta be hard in the start, the realms will be stacked
Bro they're going to be super stacked
Stacked in Layers 😂
The strange thing is warlock taking gear will go cloth with agility...
i cant decide if i want to play lock, warrior, or mage in SoD.
I'm going Lock, then mage, so I'd say do the same! ;)
So far, because of the surge of players you MUST run Haunt rune if you're a solo player!!!
chaos bolt goes crazy getting it at lvl 5 lmao
i prefer zygor over rested exp but thats just me. but they both work ow and you can just crack the living hell out of both so its full free xD
Once my channel gets bigger ima need an interview from the big homie Crix
Anytime brother. Good luck and keep pumping!
Voidwalker does NOT tank. To tank, you must hold agro.
That tips section is a word for word copy of the wowhead leveling guide. I wonder who plagiarized who
They're definitely not lol. There's more on this video than WoWhead.
Has anyone found metamorphosis yet?
A+
am in lone wolf 3.5k now
Lol chaos bolt already mate not even level 10 :D
Im sorry but Ex-scaped?
Yeah. My ex escaped.
