Damage

Warlock in WoW Forever

Warlocks are the bane of all life. Empowered by demonic blood, they can inflict great torment upon their foes. To replenish the dreadful energy their spells expend, warlocks drain vitality from their victims. The warlock can also summon and control terrifying demonic entities. Still, warlocks are feared above all else for their singular wickedness and cruelty.

ABILITIES & SPELLBOOK

Warlock abilities and skills

Explore the spells behind the class.

289 spells the Forever beta client lists for this class, from 289 class ability links. The client also holds unused and unfinished spells, so not every one is confirmed in game. Rank labels come directly from the client, and each rank has its own spell ID. Spell levels are the client's, not verified trainer requirements.
