Warlock in WoW TBC
A dark summoner who commands forces others fear to name — and enjoys every moment of it.
The Warlock is a cloth caster who commands demons, curses and damage-over-time spells — a durable, self-sufficient class with a summoned pet, self-healing through Drain Life, and Healthstones and Soulstones for the group, plus some of the most oppressive PvP pressure in the game.
All three specs are ranged DPS. Affliction spreads hard-to-remove DoTs and is the best PvP build; Demonology empowers your demon and makes you the tankiest Warlock; Destruction is a simple, S-tier raid spec that groups stack for its Curse of the Elements. Every spec levels comfortably thanks to pets and self-sustain, so pick the fantasy — dots, demons, or raw fire — that appeals most.
