Have a link to the Weak arua's you mentioned, looked on your discord couldn't find them under addons or in your pinned comments. I could also just be blind.
My Felguard is named Zerikzinul and hes a gigachad. Thanks for the guides as always crixx and can't wait for more through out the rest of Wotlk classic!
Thank you, Crix! You're super-duper Amazing! So helpful and I can listen to your professor's lectures for hours, no problem about it! You are the Best!
Thank you. I realized a few days ago that I've been playing a destruction demon lock. Duh! Though I do decent dps, I had NO idea what a noob I've been. Spending two days reading and watching other videos and I was sure I wouldn't be able to comprehend the different rotations and changing from melee to ranged and back and forth and cooldowns and... I will watch this video again and again and practice on daily H to get better. I'm as apprehensive as I am exited. Great video. Thank you again!
I am so glad I found your channel .(Pally ret player) . Fell in love with my baby lock . You have been the best for info add-ons and everything else i need for my Demo lock. I was in hospital recently for a week no wow:( But my entertainment of choice was studying your vids with strange looks from Nurses. Thanks for great info! please keep them coming ! Gurgison 80 demo lock and Izikorill Felguard supreme
Really nice guide! Currently "rerolling" a warlock for Ulduar for my guild and this helped me so much. A macro I also like is having /cast Fel Dominance and /cast Summon Felguard on one button.
Hey! Just want to say THANKS SO MUCH for these warlock videos!! I'm maining Demo warlock for the first time and I'm doing super well thanks to you and your tips!! My guild is blown away by my support demo warlock. I love the weakauras you linked too. Keep up with the fantastic content! Also my Felguard is named Haatom.
damn youre very articulate ,makes it easy to understand for me as european ,more than others,i allso like the fact that its quite fast for the amount of information youre giving and you did mention all the important things i feel .Great !
thank you for this vid, answered a lot of questions i had with the rotation with the rotation without having to find answers individually. Felgaurd is Ikzilrike.
I went into wrath planning to be affliction the entire expansion. But followed your advice weeks ago to quest as affliction and be demo in dungeons with dual spec. Well.... doing dungeons while leveling then heroics at 80 made me fall in love with demo spec. Those 20k+ soul fire crits are juuuuicy. Not to mention I out dps nearly everything in Heroics except for the occasional boomkin. Thanks Crix for what you do for the Classic community of locks. "We're not worthy! We're not worthy!"
guildmate has the best Felguard name i've seen so far. its straight up Shaaroon and i all i can think off is Ozzy Osbourne shouting "Shaaaaron!" everytime i see that damn pet
Finally the video I was waiting, nay, longing for! Thank you very much for your tips on how I can beat our pesky mages next raid. And thanks from my felguard FlaaShekor as well!
This guide is absolutely incredible! I'm brand new to WoW classic (and pretty much WoW as a whole), and I can't describe with words how much this has helped me get my head around Demo mechanics. I've done two 25 man Naxx so far and I went from dead last on DPS charts to 11th in a few days just by using this video as reference. And I got Vinikvegen as my Felguard name
Damn, This had some great info. I’ve been stacking too much hit and being abit heavy on the support side, Will try to go for a more personal dps side. Got a shit ton of gear by pure luck so im excited to see how much i can pump! Thanks for the vid!
For starters - Just rolled my os demo for the guildies and my Felguard name? Skurikrike. Hard to look at but actually pretty dope spoken out loud. Anyways this guide is fucking fantastic and as usual Crix you are a boss, thanks for your hard work man!
Hey Crix. Some of your weakauras in this video are not linked on your other video nor this one. How can I find them? After the pet attacking one and engi one mainly. Managed to find the others. Love your work. You have helped me so much!.
Nice guide, thanks. Some questions though: We apply all the dots while meta is running because the %-dmg modifier snapshots, correct? So should we also re-apply the dots before meta runs out (as long as the fight is long enough for the dots to run out) or rather keep spamming shadowbolt in that precious time? Is CoD really snapshoting too? So apply while meta and still get 20% dmg buff a for the dmg calculation one minute later?
Yes that is correct. Assuming you aren't running glyph of meta, if you just do the opener normally and apply dots just after they run out, you will find that you'll be reapplying corruption and immolate just before meta ends to snapshot the buff for longer. This happens literally every pull for me. CoD snapshots, this is the most important spell by far to make sure is pressed during meta and not just outside of it. If you have to elements then do this before meta.
What's the more DPS efficient opening rotation? Corruption - immolate - COA Immolate - COA - corruption Immolate - corruption - COA Immolate -COA have the same dot duration as demonology when applied in that order, therefore can be applied in that order every 24 seconds. It's where corruption fits into the rotation. Any advice?
Maybe a stupid question but another lock friend asked and I honestly didnt know the answer. During meta, should we ever use shadow bolt or just the shadow cleave? I do not but was asked "so you're just standing auto attacking?" so now I feel stupid I guess.
Love the guide, I'm playing on Chromiecraft and just switched to Demo, loving it so far. Sorry to be that guy, but could I also ask for your WA and the rotation addon you have in-between your unit frames?
What is the addon /weakaura that is recommending spells b/w the player and enemy unit frames? I cant seem to find any mention of that rotation helper. Is it an addon or part of a weak aura? when I download both panel and buffs this feature doesn't show
Proper demon name on mine Ikzilvazul, I was messing around on a sim and figured I was using the wrong stone and curse but this video cleared up and gave me some extra things i can do, next week we climb out of the high 70 and hit dem 90 parces!
Shaaghun is my Felguard. This isn't really that neat in and of itself, but when a buddy of mine respec'd from affliction a few weeks back we found out that our raid actually has....two Shaaghuns. The chances for that are incredibly low, from what I can tell
Links to Weak Auras? your discord doesn't have the imp shadowbolt one. I also tried making one for when both trinkets proc at the same time and couldn't figure it out. maybe one of your viewers can give it a shot?
Very late response, but my fel sometimes pulls unwarranted mobs, adds, and messes some strats up in dung/raids. Only reason I ever have had to hold him back. :)
Nitro BOOSTS! Not Nitro Boots lol. But great guide. I plan on coming back to this video once I eventually level up a Warlock since Demo is my favorite spec.
@@CrixGuides this is for decimation WA. So the wings for Molten Core is spell activation overlay. Does it have wings for any other procs like for afflic?
Question about incenerate v shadow bolt. If you had another lock you knew 100% would keep the debuff going and considering how close the dmg is for Shadowbolt and incenerate is would it be worth it to pick up the incenerate glyph over quick decay, skip the imp shadow bolt talent to pick up aftermath and cataclysm?
You should look up the hybrid spec, it's pretty much what you're describing but leans even more in to the destro tree at the cost of demonic pact and meta.
Yooo, when using the Boomkin Sim, what do you recommend I set Demonic pact Spell Power to? 4500? I think we have been using 2500 when simming phase 1 BiS, but that seems really low!
with the infernal do you drop it then fel dom the felguard out to just get the drop damage or do you keep the infernal out for the full duration then go felguard?
Destro locks: back in my day, we would cast shadowbolt and that's the way we liked it!
I always appreciate the addition of timestamps, really turns the content into reference material.
By far the best detailed Demo guide out there right now. Thanks for the video!
Update, dont put pet attack in your macros.

awesome work. Thank you. I swapped my destro lock for demo and im going my 1st 25man raid today with it. Much thank you.
How'd it go? You should save up for dual spec if you don't, I just started raiding as demo

Thank you dude! I am leveling my lock now and I am so pumped. I have a boomie now so I am used to the hard cast life. Love the videos

Yo crix. This is Voidintel on Grobbulus. Ty for the great guides as always. My Felguard's name is Flaaghun. I call him the Flaaghun Wagon :P lololol

Anyways this guide is fucking fantastic and as usual Crix you are a boss, thanks for your hard work man!
Excited for this!
Amazing guide as always Crix, thank you!
Also, you need revered with Kirin Tor, not exalted to get the head enchant - just thought you should know :D
Thanks
YO! Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! Glad to help. Let me know if there's anything else I can help with and big cheers.
My felguard is Haakrill. I actually love his name. Thanks for this video because I have been looking to up my dps.
Amazing guide bro! This helped alot
No problem. Glad to help. GL on your adventures.
Very useful and compelete guide , thank you
My Felguard is named Thoothun. So its a cool inside joke in the raid like Mike Tyson doing Rag's voice line "Thoothun Executus."
mine too!
Thoothun gang
I thought my felgaurd name was badass! I got "okinzinul" haha
Mine is like shutkirzeel or something so I call him “Skrrt Skrrt”
Mine also
Gonna have me saying phenomenal crixx. great vid xd
If you have trouble getting shoulder enchants there is an enchant at Honored. It's worse but your raid leader will be happy.
Hey Crix. Some of your weakauras in this video are not linked on your other video nor this one. How can I find them? After the pet attacking one and engi one mainly. Managed to find the others. Love your work. You have helped me so much!.
MASSIVE and Wonderful!
Great informative vid; as always! Since you asked, my Felguard's name is Thoodhun. Pretty standard meh for demons.
My man sharon or sharoon the felguard appreciates the guide.
love the vids! keep going!
My Felguard Haathun thanks you for helping me make him so much more powerful.
HAAROON! I imagine it's his warcry. Very fun to say
Haaroon Gang :D
Very nice guide, well done
0:56 you give up on the ele shaman? was looking forward to a guide
I did. Sadly.
? 18:08 Have you done the math on Glyph of Felguard damage bonus vs. Glyph of Metamorphosis damage bonus?
why dont you want to clip the immolate or corruption?
You wouldn't be getting the full value out of your dots my man.
If iam about to leave meta I clip dots so they retain the snapshot damage from meta. Is that a dps loss?
Nice guide, thanks.
Some questions though: We apply all the dots while meta is running because the %-dmg modifier snapshots, correct? So should we also re-apply the dots before meta runs out (as long as the fight is long enough for the dots to run out) or rather keep spamming shadowbolt in that precious time? Is CoD really snapshoting too? So apply while meta and still get 20% dmg buff a for the dmg calculation one minute later?

This happens literally every pull for me. CoD snapshots, this is the most important spell by far to make sure is pressed during meta and not just outside of it. If you have to elements then do this before meta.
What's the more DPS efficient opening rotation?
Corruption - immolate - COA
Immolate - COA - corruption
Immolate - corruption - COA
Immolate -COA have the same dot duration as demonology when applied in that order, therefore can be applied in that order every 24 seconds.
It's where corruption fits into the rotation. Any advice?
Skelfaran is my Felguard here :) and what is your demonic pact macro please its not in the written guide :(
Can anyone help me find the addon/WeakAura for the rotation (seen between player frame and target frame in the video)? Thanks
It's an addon called Nugkeyfeedback
Leeshnash likes Spiced Mammoth Treats and this Video
Keep it up!
Great video Crix, any chance you could do a Naxx Demo parsing guide?
for demo locks how different is 15 spirit on chest over 10 stats? demonic knowledge must make that gap really small right?
My FG's name is "Thoothun" I imagine it's Mike Tyson saying "Susan".
On retail, when I played wrath current, my FG's name is Thooshril.
How do you get your combat bars like that at 2:47? I'm assuming it's with bartender but what settings do you use to make it like that?
Sharoon we always called her Sharon
My boi Flaaghun pops off
You haven't linked your weak auras or macros in the video description, can you please update this.
Flaroon gang represent
Great Video
Soooo when do you use Shadowbolt rank 1? Opening just for the crit or?
Hey bro, you said you only use spellstone, but I’ve found using Firestone for the insane crit chance increase. Is that not something we need as demo?
Maybe a stupid question but another lock friend asked and I honestly didnt know the answer. During meta, should we ever use shadow bolt or just the shadow cleave? I do not but was asked "so you're just standing auto attacking?" so now I feel stupid I guess.
Thank you for this! Is there a text version for the macros you mention? I read the script, only rank 1 shadowbolt there.. :)
Love the guide, I'm playing on Chromiecraft and just switched to Demo, loving it so far. Sorry to be that guy, but could I also ask for your WA and the rotation addon you have in-between your unit frames?
His WA is in the description
Take your pick homie pastebin.com/u/Crix86
great video
19:36 But what about the shaman hit totem? :O
can you give a link to the WA that keeps track of the next spell to cast, that is just right of your portrait?
It's an addon called Nugkeyfeedback
@@CrixGuides thanks!
Why does his tree look nothing like what I have in my current tree in Dragonflight? I'm so confused.
Heyo!
Loved the video again @crix!
Looked on your pastebin but couldnt find which WA is the one to hide the release button.
Any helpers? :)
I'm struggling to find all the weakauras listed
What is the addon /weakaura that is recommending spells b/w the player and enemy unit frames? I cant seem to find any mention of that rotation helper. Is it an addon or part of a weak aura? when I download both panel and buffs this feature doesn't show
what WA is it to the right of playerframe telling what spell rotaion?
Hello Crix ,
has the speed rating a cap?
Proper demon name on mine Ikzilvazul, I was messing around on a sim and figured I was using the wrong stone and curse but this video cleared up and gave me some extra things i can do, next week we climb out of the high 70 and hit dem 90 parces!
Are there any phase 2 affliction lock guides? Or is demo still viable
i go 2/3 an 3/3 sometimes on demonic tactics, because of pet crits being rare when all trinkets have procced
Shaaghun is my Felguard. This isn't really that neat in and of itself, but when a buddy of mine respec'd from affliction a few weeks back we found out that our raid actually has....two Shaaghuns. The chances for that are incredibly low, from what I can tell

No one's name beats the mighty KRIMSHRIL!
Does any of the auras track Ebon plaguebringer and earth and moon?
So why would you use the bomb/cleave/seed without demon empowerment?
You do. Demonic Empowerment is on CD since it's baked into like 3 abilities.(or however many you want.)
Amazing guide.....One question, can you post a link to your weak auras pls? (Esp Decimation WA).....Thanks a lot. :)
why wouldnt you use corruption or immolate if it wont last on the boss? Its still added damage.
Just curious as to why you would have to hols your felguard back? I watched it but I didn't hear a reason. Thank you for the info!
Very late response, but my fel sometimes pulls unwarranted mobs, adds, and messes some strats up in dung/raids. Only reason I ever have had to hold him back. :)
What is the addon called right of ur player frame? The one that shows the spells?
Why do I have hellfire instead of Immolation Aura?
Nitro BOOSTS!
Not Nitro Boots lol. But great guide. I plan on coming back to this video once I eventually level up a Warlock since Demo is my favorite spec.
Idk why I say that so much lol
But they are boots lol i call them nitro boots all the time
Great video, thank you!
Felguard name: Flaaghun, I think of it as pronounced as "flagon". Not bad.
Can someone link the weak aura for the two fire Symbols that pop up when Molten Core procs
pastebin.com/DudbqNLN and then an addon also has wings called Spell Activation Overlay
@@CrixGuides this is for decimation WA. So the wings for Molten Core is spell activation overlay. Does it have wings for any other procs like for afflic?
Question about incenerate v shadow bolt. If you had another lock you knew 100% would keep the debuff going and considering how close the dmg is for Shadowbolt and incenerate is would it be worth it to pick up the incenerate glyph over quick decay, skip the imp shadow bolt talent to pick up aftermath and cataclysm?
You should look up the hybrid spec, it's pretty much what you're describing but leans even more in to the destro tree at the cost of demonic pact and meta.
Yooo, when using the Boomkin Sim, what do you recommend I set Demonic pact Spell Power to? 4500? I think we have been using 2500 when simming phase 1 BiS, but that seems really low!
I'd say go like 4300-4800. For sure there's some 500+ DP's, but not consistently yet
@@CrixGuides Thanks man!
Crix pumper and support demo have both same spec?
with the infernal do you drop it then fel dom the felguard out to just get the drop damage or do you keep the infernal out for the full duration then go felguard?
