WoW Forever Affliction vs Demonology Warlock Leveling

Compare a sustained-spell route with pet-supported progression at the same point budget.

Client data and build assumptions

Client-table preview: positions, rank caps and spell IDs are checked against build 1.60.1.69913. These readable tables may retain legacy layout. Five points per tier, full-rank prerequisites and the 11-point Level 20 budget are planning assumptions, not proof of final live Beta rules. Missing rank text stays unknown.

Damage over time and sustained solo play

  • Improved Corruption opens the route. Improved Life Tap and three Soul Siphon ranks follow before Amplify Curse becomes the final point.
  • Compare full pull-and-recovery cycles with the same demon and target level.

Sustained pressure or pet investment

Affliction ends at Amplify Curse after Corruption and recovery-related choices. Demonology ends at Fel Domination after a specific Voidwalker package.

Do not remove recovery from the comparison

Count pet recovery, player recovery and failed pulls. The fastest individual kill is not always the fastest sequence of quests.

Main trade-offA short-lived enemy may not reveal the value of a sustained route. This allocation gives up the early Demonology pet package.Pet survival and player damage are different measurements. A safer pull can take longer, and the useful balance depends on your actual downtime.
