  • Bane of Agony

WoW Forever Affliction Warlock Rotation

    Affliction Warlocks gain a new level 30 talent called
    Wrack
    that will replace
    Shadow Bolt
    as your filler spell. They also gain access to
    Demonic Sacrifice
    since it moved up in the Demonology tree. The sims will eventually tell us what the optimal rotation is, but below is an idea of what that might look like:

  1. Use
    Demonic Sacrifice
    on
    Summon Imp
    .
  2. Maintain your assigned curse, otherwise use
    Curse of Shadow
    .

    Amplify Curse
    with
    Bane of Agony
    and any on-use effects.
  4. Cast
    Shadow Bolt
    with
    Nightfall
    procs.
  5. Maintain
    Bane of Agony
    .

    Corruption
    .
  7. Maintain
    Siphon Life
