At level 11Demonic Embrace 2/5
One point per level from 10 is a planner assumption. Step order is derived from the published allocation, checked for legal prerequisites. The Blizzard Legacy announcement confirms only that Talented can unlock points up to five levels early. Using it requires earned Legacy points and a per-character choice. Blizzard does not confirm the exact schedule or current Beta availability. This comparison does not model points beyond this published route.

Loads these exact points in the calculator’s Level 30 budget. The modeled timing does not change its point cap or verify early access in the live Beta.

BLIZZARD OCTOBER 1 NOTESOfficial
October 1 Beta changes for Warlock
Official Beta announcement · Blizzard’s October 1 development notes
Affliction Soul Harvesting was renamed Soul Harvest and now correctly grants its 50/100% increase to Mana regeneration.
Hellfire can now critically strike; Drain Soul now stops when the Warlock begins casting another spell.
Aggressive Mode returned for Warlock pets under the pet tab in the spell book.
The live Beta level cap is 30. The talent structure was reconciled through 1.60.1.70291; 21-point Level 30 routes are editorial allocations. Rank descriptions retain their separate community transcription evidence, and point-order rules remain derived assumptions.
Demonology: selected talents and trade-offs
Demonic Embrace 5/5, Improved Voidwalker 3/3 and Fel Vitality 2/3 form ten points. Master Summoner supplies the eleven-point stage and reaches 2/2 before Unholy Power 3/5 completes fifteen. Fel Domination, Demonic Energies 2/2 and Improved Health Funnel 2/2 lead to Demonic Knowledge 1/3 at twenty-one.
Improved Voidwalker applies to named Voidwalker abilities, rather than every demon. Fel Vitality, Unholy Power and Demonic Knowledge remain partial. Health Funnel transfers the player’s health, and a safer pet-supported pull does not establish a damage ranking.
Keep the Voidwalker active and record pet control and recovery. Add the later summon-cost, health-transfer and active-demon damage effects to comparable pulls. Demonic Sacrifice and Soul Link are unselected; the route does not sacrifice the pet it is designed to test.
Executable point order
Use the progression to inspect each point from Level 10 to 30. The calculator opens the exact allocation and level. These routes are examples for comparing choices, not a measured damage ranking.
Reviewed Warlock snapshot: 52 visible nodes from Wago client build 1.60.1.70291, reconciled against Talents Forever. All 149 rank descriptions are adapted from Talents Forever (CC BY 4.0, https://talentsforever.com), with community verification. Two active Warlock positions use explicitly reviewed row/column mappings; the original raw coordinates are preserved and those mapped positions have community evidence. The export resolves tooltip values at Level 60; it does not rescale them to the selected level or simulate damage. Level 30 examples spend 21 points; the existing Level 20 page uses eleven-point stages of this reviewed tree. One point per level from 10, five points per tier, full-rank prerequisites and the editorial point order remain derived planning assumptions. Original 69913 saves remain historical records and are not partially migrated into a changed allocation.
