Tips and tactics

  • For warlocks from 20-62, this spell should always be maintained. Its long duration means you don't need to recast it that often, but it is easy to overlook an expired buff.

After gaining the far-superior Fel Armor at level 62, Demon Armor is oft forgotten. From that point on, Demon Armor has 2 main functions for warlocks.

  • The Healing bonus applies to bandages and Healthstones as well, so turning it on after a resurrection of any variety is both useful & efficient.
  • The added armor and health regen is useful in Multi-mob drain tanking of higher levels, a PvE grinding technique for Affliction Warlocks.

It can also be used for lock tanking, which is currently unnecessary.

Past changes
