Hey kalamazi, with pre-patch is coming, i've been slacking to get Condensed Life-force rank 3 essence for single target in raids for affliction, also for the blood of the enemy, do you think Memory of Lucid Dreams would work for single target with Malefic Rapture?
Just got back after a long break. Thank you for the video and I just wanted to ask what add on are you using for the soul shards in the middle. Thanks!
So how are warlocks looking in m+ comparitive to the bursty specs? I would hate for afflic to just be the worst spec in dungeons for another expac.
Really appreciate the effort you've put into this man. I was going to main a boomkin, but this changed my mind. Thanks for great content
Plz buff demo affliction so op rn
Just made a warlock for SL and leveling it up so far so good!
Someren told me about a neef for affliction. Now I'm lening to Spriest. Someone maby can clarify for me?
I stopped playing aff during Bfa because of how kinda awful it was in M+ but i watched this 29 min guide with passion lol. felt like a 5 min video. Am so happy it will be decent for keys <3 maybe not a top tier contender but for sure middle of the pack, and thats all we needed 😀 tnx for the guide
So in aoe trash/m+ do we not want to put UA on more than 1 target? In your example UA was only on one target before Rapture. While we don’t want to cap, wouldn’t rolling an extra UA on another target be beneficial ?
By any chance, do you have a guide or video for the macros you use? I'm struggling with all of the extra buttons this patch and looking to consolidate spells to clear up space on my bars.
This will be my first time playing lock in retail, after maining it in classic for the past year or so. Affliction is looking really fun with Malefic Rapture 😀 Your videos are invaluable!
i literally thought you were seth rogan
With sims decently working, it looks like haste doesn't have that much prio due to 3x Cascading Calamity + Compendium trinket leading to diminishing returns. Mastery is very soughted after tho
As always..thanks so much for all the great warlock videos. I had a bit of trouble following the essences part. I went back 3 times but couldnt grasp it. Could you just for single target provide me with best major and minor combination. That would be very nice. Thank you in advance
Thank you for everything you put into this! I played Destro basically all of BFA cause I wasn't a fan of post-Legion Affliction, but now I'm finally liking how Aff looks again and I'm excited
I'm sure you've been asked this like every video, but I'll be maining aff warlock for the first time I'm having trouble keeping track of dot timers what are you using to see the timers underneath your character?
Could you make a video for people just starting, I’m no newbie to mmorpg’s but feel like my brains going to explode trying to understand rotations in wow
hey man whats the weakaura you use? its very nice!
what stat should we focus, mast or haste?
what's your shards add on?
What is the addon that makes the target bars look like that?
i don't get it. Will azerite necklace buffs still be a thing in shadowlands (blood of the enemy, beam, etc.)?
What do when aoe vs more enemies? You showed 4 here, but if there is more, say 8, do you still wait to put agony up on all? Sometimes I end up at 5 shards before I've managed to
Great guide 🙂 What's that addon/weakaura at the middle of your screen that shows countdowns of all dots and light-up alerts for when theyre almost expired?
NIce video! 🙂 But Maybe I just missed it? But Why did you skip talents for lvl 30 and lvl 40?!
Demonology ftw ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Almost 80% mastery but 20% haste at 126 ilvl
What is the name of the addon to see the timer dot please ?
Can u link ur Elvui profile?
Which addon do you use to track the dots?
What UI are you using?
The guide was amazing, the only thing that threw me off was the haircut. Kalamazi needs to find a good barber lol
So basically More Dots
Great info! As a returning player, I haven't seen anything mentioned about pets. Has the damage been balanced or is there one to use over others?
Do you have a link to the weakaura you're using in the video?
What Nameplates do you use, so they don´t overlap? I really struggle with monitoring my dots, because of them overlapping -_-
Hi new to the your channel having just rolled affliction…nice vid gave me loads of tips..cheers mate..👍
Which do people feel is better affliction or destruction for mythic +
Need help. On live it feels like I'm starving for shards, my generation is soooooooooo slow.
I saw someone be able to cast old shadow bolt ?!?? How do you do this ?!??
Hello Kala, what auras do u use ? Where i can get this ?
Do you use a nameplate addon? If so, which one? Thanks!
Great video! Where can I import that WA setup??
Do you have a video about your addon setup? if not could you make one ? 🙂
very helpful, I just switched from demonology to afflic and this was great to watch.
What addon do you use for your action bars and nameplates? Also is that your own Weak Aura that you use for the cool downs in the middle of the screen?
Hi what is your nameplate addon name ?
I wish locks had more utility for situations with both single target and multi targets. It seems like you are doing a lot of spec swapping.
What’s your cast timer addons
