Demonology Warlock leveling guide

TBC AnniversaryLevel 60-70Ranged DPS

Demonology gives the Warlock the Felguard, a demon that tanks, cleaves and charges enemies that try to run. Demonic Knowledge turns your pet’s Stamina and Intellect into spell damage for you, and Master Demonologist adds a bonus that depends on your demon. With a strong pet in front, you can pull bigger groups than any other Warlock.

  • Let the Felguard pull a few enemies together and hit them with Cleave.
  • Corruption on each enemy, and Seed of Corruption from level 70 on a larger group.
  • Anguish pulls enemies back to the Felguard if they come after you.

Staying alive

  • Fel Armor from level 62 and a Healthstone for emergencies.
  • Fear or Death Coil on an enemy that reaches you, and Howl of Terror when several do.
