Starting our grand Classic adventure tomorrow live - www.twitch.tv/grimprospect ❤️
It's apparent you worked very hard on this guide. Well done!!
0:07 that's a cool equip macro. Doing this before every dungeon now. Just RP walk a bit and press the super sayan button
This is a FANTASTIC guide! Wow! Absolutely well done!! Thank you so much ❤️
Amazing guide. Wish there were quality and comprehensive guides like this one for other mmos.
Amazing guide, love it bookmarked, subscribed , and smashed that like button. For the Forsaken Warlock!
Best warlock guide so far. Keep it up.
Pretty, pretty please make these videos for as many classes as you know well enough to make. These are some of the most comprehensive and succinct videos I've seen yet.
Thanks for all the tips! I’m rolling lock in classic! Can’t wait !
Bro, ty for this outstanding guide! Ima catch your strum tmrw =D
PLEASE NOTE. YOU DO NOT NEED TO CALL OFF YOUR PET FOR IMPROVED DRAIN SOUL. EVEN IF YOUR PET GETS THE LAST HIT, YOU WILL STILL GET THE PROC!
yeah wtf it even states it in the description that it just needs to die while casting it
Great job buddy! Very informative!
This is great work. The best thing about this video is the backgroundmusic from Thousand Needles
Just booting up a lock alt now after doing arms warrior for most of classic. And man, its just amazing how versatile the lock is within the dps spectrum. Several very viable end game builds and in terms of leveling it feels like you can almost do what you want. Something might be optimal, but most of it is very viable, and my killspeed and sustain is very high regardless compared to my other toons
awesome vid well put together and good information.
Another excellent, high quality video 👍✨✔
Thx for this awsome guide!
Great Vid mate! Ty
awesome warlock gameplan, saved it and am gonna study it, thnks man
ok i played wow 3 years ago, played a character to lvl 21 or so and got bored. so now i am lvl 24 and have found some interest. i still don't have a clue on what i am doing in the game. as of now i am just doing quests / lvling. i know i soon got to start doing real stuff, like tradeskilliing in something, i assume tailoring ? i do not have a clue about the game, like what is retail wow ? shud i play classic wow ? battle of azaroth ? i have been watching a ton of content , streams and youtube stuff, hence why i came across your video which was very informative. i made a horde warlock, did i make a wrong decision ? seems like the horde are getting pvp'd to extinction on streams i watch i am losng my mind due to loss of knowledge of the game LOL
i just use /petattack and /petpassive and keep my pets on passive 100% of the time. i tried mapping petattack to immolate at first, but it got way too wonky with multiple mobs trying to multidot and shit without ping ponging my pet.
i love attack and passive because i have total control over the pets. if my void actually manages to hold aggro i can press petpassive and then petattack to have him reposition the mob closer to me if i don't want to chain aggro a pat. if i'm in a dungeon i can put my full rotations on multiple mobs without sending my succy all over the place, and then when the mob she's on is about to die, i can preemptively get her to attack the next one without messing with my rotation at all.
another quality of life thing i get to do is if i'm headed somewhere and i aggro some world mobs, i can just make my void or even the succy attack them, then i get to keep running free without getting dazed or anything. once i get far enough away i just hit petpassive and we're gucci.
so much control with just 2 keybinds
The macro for having your pet attack when casting a spell is cool. But I prefer to bind pet attack to scroll up and pet follow to scroll down. Its super intuitive.
I actually would recommend binding it to shift+mouse wheel that way you can still zoom in and out. Of course, if you dont care about screen distance this doesn't matter much.
Fantastic video my dude im lvling a lock in classic and i will use ur video to my benefit BIG PHAT THUMBS UP
I also subscribed you deserve it
I'm an OG pserver guy and very much enjoyed this vid, well presented and great soothing voice xd
7/31/13 was always my favorite build, having shadowburn you can spam that vs the nightfall might or might not proc. when I was doing testing dps is higher.
Hi, thank you for the guide! Please, could you share pre raid BIS map, that you created? Thank you!
great video!
I’m totally new to wow and this is hands down the best guide I have seen so far! Thank you so much for this!
Any way to get a link to some of your info graphics/ charts? :) thanks
I have them all in my discord organized for you =) discord.gg/ZteceCQ If you don't have discord let me know friend!
Awesome guide! Looking forward towards a druid guide ^_^
I think petattack is important enough for its own separate keybind. When taking on multiple mobs it's so valuable to be able to order it around free of any spells.
Yep personally I have mine bound to scroll wheel up for petattack and scroll down for petfollow
Nice guide. I'm thinking of leveling mining and engineering on my lock. Think it would be fun especially you can craft some pretty crazy trinkets.
That sounds like it will be fun!
Hey Grim, Thanks a lot for the great guide! Could you upload the pre raid bis item map that you use in the video, that looks amazing for knowing what to look for!
Sure thing Mads! imgur.com/a/7nSxNwR
you didnt mention the spirit of aquamentas offhand as an option as pre-bis offhand. its the 2nd best behind the drakestone and is probably the best option due to no RNG
I always enjoyed leveling as aff with the succubus. Just dot everything up, run around and let the succubus finish off the npcs.
Just new to the game
(suggestion)
can you make a an in-depth video about macro commands?
You neglected to mention spirit of aquementas, an amazing alternative to farming that damn drakestone
Nice video dude! Can you work on a Mage Guide? thanks!
Warlocks look great for sure.
Great Video! #subscribed
Hey Thanks, for the video. Do you have a link of your background image you use in your video who includes stuff and location ? Thanks.
imgur.com/a/7nSxNwR enjoy!
Thanks for all this helpful information. I haven't played any form of WOW in over 6 or 7 years but I'm sick now and can no longer work so im debating on starting to play again to help pass my time. I remember when I started playing the original classic I rolled a Warlock and I knew nothing at all about how to play my Toon or which gear was best to lvl or raid in. I was a total Nub but I learned to become very good especially at DPS in dungeons and raids. My question I have for you probably sounds pretty silly but one thing I very well remember from back in those days leveling my lock was when I would ask experience people playing which staat between two different ones was the best choice for a lock and I never got enough of just one single answer to decide which was more important. The two staats I'm referring to are ; Intellect or spirit. Which of those two were more important for a lock? Probably seems silly to you but that really stood out at me as a huge issue back then and I never did know for sure. Most told me warlocks didn't use spirit that spirit was for priest yet alot of cloth drops I would see had spirit on them and the drop may have even called out it was a locks Cape or wrist.
Well rather than avoiding any stat in particular I think you just need to keep a priority list in mind. And the priority list changes depending on when you are asking. For leveling after Stam/Int I think its perfectly acceptable to take gear with spirit on it. When you start to get closer towards end game Spell Damage and Spell Crit become very important stats for you to look for so you don't have much time for spirit. So I guess in short I wouldn't sacrifice int/stam for gear that exclusively held spirit on it but if you find a nice piece of gear with spirit it can be very helpful at early levels. But then again it all depends on what and how you are leveling too. questing/dungeon grinding =)
I was deep destro in vanilla it was so much fun
Joe DiGregorio been watching Cobrak. Literally destroying everything even higher lvls lol
Subbed.
I prefer Intensity over Cataclysm for SM Ruin, makes AoE areas so much easier.
Great video - need to work on blending that audio abit its quite jarring when you have headphones
You do not need the killing blow to proc Imp. Drain Soul or to get a soul shard. You just need to have the spell active on the target when it dies to get both.
I only got 24 linen from levels 1-12 in elwyn forest, and i farmed defias for 2 levels.
That's pretty bad luck lol. That's an alright amount, but not if you specifically farmed them.
@@zigguratjones6458 you dam right! i took enchanting and tailoring to get my wands, i had to buy the lesser magic wand, it kinda gets worse, i just bought the lesser magic wand and was on the gnoll paw quest in westfall after and a gnoll dropped the 10.4dps shadow damage wand....lesser is still better but im level 13 i will need to upgrade to greater wand at 15 or 16, worst luck i have ever had.
@@sasa1982uk Sorry to hear that brother! Hope your luck turns around. Who know, you could be the world first Teebus or Skullflame sheild :D
@@Grimprospect that would be nice
Wow...that strawpoll really guided me in the right direction -.-
This is a great guide. But the editing of your speaking is really rough. It just feels so so choppy. But thank you very much for the guide.
Great video
Leatrix takes care of dismount and stand by a click of a box.
Can you make a video like this for druid?
Hey pal, so SM/Ruin is better for lv 60 dg for bis farming , right? Should I dot corruption and agony all targts and spam shadowbolt? Or just corruption? What about siphon life for lv 60 dg?
I'd base it off how long the target is going to live and your group composition. How many casters or other warlocks do you have. Is your target lasting more than 24 seconds? Is your group focused on aoe spellcleave? So many different way to adapt :)
Can you share a link to your quest map?
is there a list for the Quests?
I really like drain tanking for leveling. The voidwalker just sucks for holding aggro compared to private servers.
Great guide.Could you make a compilation of your addons so we can download them instantly?
I will as soon as I finalize all of my addons =D
@@Grimprospect Thanks boss!
Hey @grimprospect, is it possible to get the thumbnail as an jpeg?
First off, excellent video.
I had a question. I was lucky enough to have [Staff of Jordan] drop for me today. Wondering if it's a viable pre-raid BiS option for a warlock or if I should just sell it.
Yup it's a great alternative to the dagger orb combo and you arnt losing that much shadow spell damage. I'd use it unless you have your sights set on something else expensive. :D
The staff is great for twinks, but BG's haven't opened yet. If you equip it, it will be fantastic for a few levels and then it's still bound to you but you've moved on to better weapons. If you plan to create a twink for BG's then keep it, otherwise auction to someone else who wants to do that and get a ton of gold.
I like how that straw poll is split 50:50 no help guys.
Yeah its a pretty close race at this point =D I think it just boils down to personal preference.
Watching this today just for the nostalgia 🥲
Love this video man, where can i find the img of pre bis?
Got them on the discord all organized and ready for yah :)
Hey @Grimprospect, good video and quite useful to me because I started a warlock. However, I have a problem with the soul shard deleter Drain Soul macro. It doesn't really work for me.
Hmm did you copy and paste it or type it from the text? Also if its too much trouble Necrosis does a good job managing your shards too! It just comes with a lot of other features too.
@@Grimprospect Well I don't have the soul shard bag yet - so the macro kinda functions: if my bags are full, it will delete the last item in Bag4 where my shards are. But if I have more space in any other bag, the shard will go there. Weird but okay.
@@Grimprospect After further inscpection, the macro deletes the last item in the fourth bag anyway but it puts the created shard on the first empty slot in a bag
@@crazyhussar I'm glad you figured it out =D And yes the macro was meant for level 20 warlocks since your soul shard will automatically be put into your soul shard bag and that would be the 4th slot typically.
i'm new to this and i'm not really sure how to do the macro... I typed in my spell curse of weakness and rank1 but it doesnt work when i use it
I'd be more than happy to show you how to do it, but it might be better for you if I show you live. Jump in my stream anytime I'm live and I can show you the way around it. =) www.twitch.tv/grimprospect/ The macro system can be a bit tricky at times.
you can also shift click the spell directly into the macro if you don't want to type it
I just wanna know if the shadow bolt talent increases curse shadow damage.
If you are talking about Improved Shadow Bolt (first row in destro tree), then yes. As far as I know, it's all damage sources that deal shadow damage to the target that get's the bonus (Sorry for the late response)
keeping those algorithms happy...
pls do a pally guide
Can you please do rogue
Great video but simply mouse wheel scroll up and down is the way to go for you're pet.
I thought about this, but what do you use for Camera zoom?
4th bag is counting from which side? left or right?
Well, your default backpack is on the right. Sooooo....yea.
So i'm level 50 now and An Imp's Request is not available... does anyone know if this is going to be available? This is after all classic so all quests should be available....
Sadly, the level 50 class quests appear to not be in the game for anyone. Blizzard released these later during vanilla and while we dont know which phase for sure they I am guessing phase 4. I had hoped they would come out for phase 1 because they made a great addition to the class fantasy. But I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
do you have a link for pre-raid bis map?
Yup :) have them all for you in the discord.
The quest "An Imp's Request" doesn't seem to be in the game as of yet, any news or am I missing a requirement to get it.
The quest will be added in phase 3. So only a month to wait now =D
@@Grimprospect Ok thank you very much for your response.
Hi,
My first time using Macros in wow at all, 15years ago did not needed or did not know about them :)
I try to write "Drain Soul" macro and are little confused about the last line. I use first lock soulbag "Small Soul Pouch" 12 slots and use it as last bag (should be slot 4 if not counting Backbag
#Showtooltip
/cast Drain Soul(Rank 1)
/Petfollow
/run PickupSmall Soul Pouch(4,Get(12)), DeleteCursorItem(Soul Shard)
Where is the mistake?
Problem is that it does not delete soul shard after bag is full
The last line of text, the /run, should be all one line of text to the end of the second line you have there. Just keep typing till your text wraps around. If that doesn't work it could be something wrong with the actual text of the line. I copy and pasted the exact text from my macro pool that worked. Just remember it will only delete the final item in your bags too. If you need more help let me know :)
I’m having the same issue
This guy really loves his Macarons...me too. Careful you dont eat too many!
will you do one for rogue?
I hope to do one for every class at some point =D
W8ing for Paladin and Shaman version of that...
Soul pouches should go in the bank until you hit max level. You shouldn't need more than 2 or 3 soul shards at a time when leveling, so you'd rather have normal bag space there. Most guides tell you Imp Drain Soul is a trap anyway.
Exactly, ones you are wanding an enemy, it´s not worth to interrupt your spirit, just to proc a spirit buff for a few seconds.
Not bad. But maybe put an image of each talent specifications as you’re speaking about them.
You want text for the abilities while I speak about them? Will do! :)
Did I bork myself by going herb/alch?
Not at all, Robe of the Void is a near 1% damage increase compared to Robe of Winter Night, one is BOP and makes you level tailoring to 300, the other can be farmed easily or bought for a reasonable price, then you can drop herb for Tailoring in phase 4, where its mandatory to have Tailoring.
People think going tailoring as lock is mandatory but it really isnt, not until ZG.
Where is the link to the gear map? 19:45
Unless you're a tailor, don't bother with the quest for Enchanted Gold Bloodrobe. Robes for Arcana is learned through a pattern which drops from mobs deep into Alliance territory, which means that people have to purposefully farm the pattern. The robe currently sells for ~5g on my realm.
Sounds like a nice way to make some money =)
considering you get the mount for free anyways i would consider it worth it. You dont have to save up money as a warlock
@@juandeag5194 Oh yeah, those grimoires and the 1 bag slot taken by your soul bag really help with gold.
The robe is not worth it. And yes, crafting it for other foolish warlocks who think it is is a nice way to make money. :)
@@t3chn0dr0n3 lmao yes its a good way to make money if you're shit at it
Is there a macro for (CLASSIC) that will let me cast a spell but if the target is not buffed or dotted up or resisted spell can it still cast that spell again? Something like this /script if not buffed("Corruption", 'target') then cast("Corruption") else if not buffed("Curse of Agony", 'target') then cast("Curse of Agony") else if not buffed("Immolate",'target') then cast("Immolate") end end end /cast shoot
27:27 Runn Tum Tuber Suprise "Also increases your Intellect by 358 for 10 min". Kay then lol.
Ah yes that one is from phase 2! Must slipped by me when making the list. My apologies.
Soul harvester is the wtg. So many other trinkets that are better, especially if you are engineer.
Lol, you don't just leave it equipped. In classic you swap trinkets out a lot, you'd only equip it when you're using the on-use effect then unequip it when you're done.
@@SB-ez7wp Why would you ever care about the trinket effect? It's utterly pointless in every scenario.
Soul shard macro tied to drain soul doesn't work for me... anyone have a fix?
You can use the addons Necrosis if the macro isnt working for you.
@@Grimprospect i actually fogured it out. I'm terrible at coding, and didnt realize that not including the space between "rank" and "one" would break the entire macro. Thank you for the reply though.
@@opifid7123 glad it's working now :D
In my experience the drain soul macro to call your pet off to get the killing blow is useless. At least with the Voidwalker, I always get the killing blow without calling him out. I know many guides are recommending to use this macro, but have you guys tried to go without it?
I've never had the void-walker get the killed over me so
It's just a small minmax if you want to last second drain life but I can see it being nice without using the macro as well. Thanks for the feedback =D
It doesn't matter if the pet gets the last hit, you will still get the proc as long as you have drain soul going. It can't be anyone else other than you or your pet.
as sean said. It doesnt matter whether or not YOU the warlock, or your pet gets the last hit. so long as it is not another player, or player's pet. your improved drain soul WILL proc
@@Grimprospect Maybe my comment was more like generally speaking and not meant only for you. This was just something I have been thinking, why so many is speaking behalf this macro and how important it is to have. Anyhow, as a warlock player myself, I really liked your guide and I will get back to it when I finally hit lvl 60. :-)
i dont have any of the option to pick up dar'orahil or noh' orahil. im lvl 36
Same and i was 40
Wowhead it, the quest actually starts in your major city i believe, been a hot second since i did it though lol
would love if you could make a SoD guide as well :D whats good stuff to get till 25.. and so on !
11:10 wait WL can equip a staff?
Yup, you can train them in TB or Org for horde. Alliance can train them in SW or Darnassus.
Is those talents spec still viable now for hardcore classic?
I can't say for sure. However, I would imagine some are ever green.
Is that pre raid BIS map available somewhere to download?
Yup on my discord
@@Grimprospect I joined and can't find it there :(
4:40 THIS MACRO IS NOT NEEDED. EVEN IF YOUR PET DOES GET THE LAST HIT YOU STILL GET THE IMPROVED DRAIN SOUL PROC
I am confirming this, as you solo lvl your pet CAN get the killing blow. But if you are in dungeons with a group, you wont get the proc as a groupmember gets the killing blow.
yep solo level with imp i go Improved drain soul early if its just me, if you are using more dots later in the game as a dot lock, though with or without party members i would skip the talent as some gurus calculated the gain from usage is null. but to each there own!
Easy Soul Harvester. Its badass scythe.
Hey I was wondering if anyone can link the map showing all the useful warlock quests please
I have all the maps for you here brother discord.gg/6wxbP5d Just react to the warlock symbol in #Role-assignments =)
@@Grimprospect it's saying invite invalid :( nevermind , the link in description worked
Why would you ever use Skull of Impending doom which potentially can deal 2500 damage to you?
It can break CC in PvP and help kite melee dps.
You can also cancel the effect at any time.
Would you do a similar Guide for 1-80 in a fresh server wotlk environment? 🙏🙏
in fact for the most of cases lock could get their T1 even before they hit lv60 lol
im lvl 30 and lvling with pals. im running thr sm/ruin build atm..... is that a big no no or is it ok? i just respec too
I've run into many warlocks running something similar and they do great in the dungeons we run =D
sweet- just seen so many guilds saying to do demo untill im like lv 40 50 ect.
You can share a link for this map?
Sure!
imgur.com/a/grims-classic-warlock-highlighted-quests-keVQ9wH
Pet getting final blow is not a big deal. It doesnt happen often
It doesnt happen on classic.
ITS COMPLETELY USELESS. even if your pet gets the last hit, improved drain soul will proc
