Warlock Guide

Posted January 28th, 2010 by Xerin

Our complete Warlock Guide!

The Warlock class is a class that deals in demonic spells and rituals. They can summon demons from the void, afflict upon their enemies various curses and diseases, and use various shadow arts to directly attack. As a Warlock, you can expect high survivability with the best hitpoints a caster class can have, along with a lot of help from your summoned demons when it comes to soloing. It is also the only class to have a Single-Target Fear spell, allowing it to survive against formidable opponents by simply "fear-kiting" player and monster alike!

As opposed to Mages, Warlocks seek to deal Damage over Time, and have more utility for a group, be it raid or 5-man group, with additions such as Healthstones, Soulstones (anti-wipe measure) and their petbuffs. While playing a Warlock, you will be expected to keep quite a few debuffs active on your enemies as you wittle them down and drain their energies away for others to do more damage to them.

If you are seeking information on the demonic Warlock class, then you’ve found the right place! Our Warlock guide contains all the information you need, from talent builds to the best professions. Should our Warlock class guide not answer a question, we have our very own Warlock forums to assist you.
