Warlock DPS Gearing Guide for Phase 3 - P3 BiS

Here's the Phase 3 BiS for DPS locks. I go over Aff and Destro options. Lock Tank next, then will do the Raid guides. Cheers.

THEY BUFFED THE MARA DAGGER DROP RATE! Don't know what it is, but so many people have got it today. Also, I know you can't get 22Int to weapon, IDK why it's on there. Will you guys be buying Eye of Flame or the Darkmoon Decks? It's diabolical how expensive they are. Also, anyone have luck with Blade of Eternal Darkness yet? I'm about to give up on it.

[@JoeyLaRosa-bv2tq]

I've been trying to farm Eye of the Flame. I've got friends who it dropped for multiple times, same with the Blade.

[@kylez9094]

I’m gonna farm princess for blade and darkmoon cards whenever I have free time. Mostly to get decay, but if the blade miraculously drops it’s icing on the cake

[@CrixGuides]

Good Luck!

[@johnhiggins8470]

I got eye of flame, and it was 700g. Took most of my gold, but I can farm gold easy this phase. I do not expect to get Visage of the exiled in my raid, considering how many people in my raid need it. Great guide, keep it up!

[@kylez9094]

And when I eventually give up I can sell the darkmoon cards

[@kamyu1133]

Cant wait for the talents and rotations

[@codyking4253]

Crix! Ive been starved for warlock content since the launch of P3.. glad you've got vids coming!

[@kodysullivan7582]

Probably the best gear overview I’ve seen and thank goodness it’s for my class and spec lmao. Concise and providing very reasonable alternatives for those who aren’t trying to do insane grinds for nominal gains. Subbed - cheers ! Can’t wait for talent + rotation vids !

[@user-wf1nm4pg4p]

Loving the warlock videos bro, keep it up!

[@wolfozzy]

been waiting for this not gonna lie lmao thank you sir

[@CrixGuides]

You're welcome

[@MoobooCreates]

Didn't realize breath of the beast was valued so high. That said I'm a tank and it's much easier to hit the 5% hit cap through other gear. Can't wait for the tank video. Interested to see how your list differs from the one I put together.

[@claudiozupa]

Hey Crix my man, massive video as always. Do you reckon affli is/will be much worse than destro?

[@CrixGuides]

No, it's not much worse. Last I checked it was like 150dps behind. But can fluctuate since you can get good rng with NF procs and crit

[@JI-ev9pp]

Just watched another video that said alt now affects minions as well. So now imp will no longer be running out of mana.

[@avatarroku3173]

will the Decay card likely be bis in future phases? will it be worth at least starting to farm or save gold for?

[@JoaoMassot]

So 3% hit (helm+belt+trinket) more than enough? Is that the minimum or is it 2%?

[@sosneakysneaky]

Hey, crix. Do you plan on making cata prepatch warlock videos?

[@CrixGuides]

Yup!

[@dimitartsolyov8059]

I still have the BFD staff, do you think I should find an alternative before I get the drop from ST

[@deano4138]

It couldn't hurt to try, but I wouldn't prioritize it unless the rest of your char is done

[@DarkMatterZero]

Hinterlands incursion farm I'd a good day to grind rep now with the new add on Nightmare Helper also a great way to farm gold for your expensive trinkets.

[@Dan-wi4vk]

I sold summons on my warlock for a while and then invested heavily in herbs for this phase, last phase, made 4-5k gold. Highly considering just buying a decay deck outright....any idea offhand how much DPS difference it is?

[@CrixGuides]

Likeeeeeeeee 50 ish last I checked.

[@Satoshi799]

Hey Crix, with the new life tap changes about to drop (pet receiving mana from life tap) do you still think we need to run infernal pact essence? I’m almost thinking we can swap it for a SP trinket?

[@Satoshi799]

Also gives us the ability to use stv lvl 50 ring

[@CrixGuides]

You definitely can, but Infernal Pact is still really good, even with the Life Tap changes since Imp still does so much damage and it pretty much ensures he won't run OOM.

[@leoengstam]

@@CrixGuides Do we go max rank firebolt now?

[@CrixGuides]

@@leoengstam Yes. 100% do it

[@SpicySharp]

Am I shooting myself in the foot by playing affliction?

[@AnthonyBrucculeri]

Hey Crix! I was waiting for a video from you! My lock is fresh 50. Was hoping you’d post a talent guild for dps and tank spec? Or is there one that you go by? Let me know! My fresh 50 lock wants to kill shit 🤣

[@CrixGuides]

It's coming up next!

[@AnthonyBrucculeri]

@@CrixGuides thanks Bro!

[@bryanpollard9291]

Where the video for the Mara farm didn't see un description

[@CrixGuides]

Ohh shit my bad. I'll put it in there now. Thanks kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3WnlqiwhdyHqJo&t=

[@Scorius88]

Which build do people run around with questing etc in 50?

[@CrixGuides]

Affliction with Meta for outside world content. It's OP. Soul Link with Haunt is amazing if on PvP server.

[@LouSassole]

Are you making a Lock Meta Tanking video soon? I dont see any worth a crap out there.

[@CrixGuides]

Yes. It's coming after this one. Like 2 days

[@LouSassole]

@@CrixGuides Can’t wait!

[@yoslo6832]

Any chance you will be doing a tank one?

[@CrixGuides]

Yep. Working on it now. I'm doing a little bit different with it than the basic 60's upgrade since there's so many ways to build it

[@angelorusso9345]

need a talents and rotations video please

[@nicolas204]

how is doing affliction warlock in ST ?

[@nicolas204]

compared to destuction warlock ?

[@CrixGuides]

It's doing great. It's still behind Destro, but you can still blast. Plus if you get good RNG you can really slap

[@nicolas204]

@@CrixGuides thanks my friend, can u do a bis guild for affliction warlock ? 😂😂

[@joebobsquarepants]

Is spritecaster better than sunborne cape?

[@CrixGuides]

I didn't even notice that Cloak. Yeah it's good. It's 3Sp for 4 Intellect, so up to you, but i'd take the 3 SP>>

[@tcb8649]

You cant get 22 int on weapon this phase since quests for rep over honored is level 60.

[@XBUGMANX]

Does anyone actually have decay? I heard the proc rate is ass.

[@gallakailancer3692]

You cant get +22 intellect enchant

[@CrixGuides]

TY. Idk why it's listed

[@kylez9094]

I’m still running phase 1 tank bud cuz KZbin didn’t tell me what to use phase 2…

[@CrixGuides]

Won't happen again, Tank stuff soon

[@krispe2512]

Please create a destro AND affliction video for builds bc the UA buff looks good and for the people who might wannabtry another playstyle likenmyself. I did destro with conflag build last night and i missed so many conflag opportunities bc of moving from boss mechanics, id rather just not deal with it. Also the wrist rune aura is trash and really doesnt help DPS

[@freuderle]

UA buff isnt as big as it first seems, because the buff only applies to the base damage. Also for the wrist rune, we dont really have any other options, felguard is trash and if you play destro which sims the highest, you have to use immolate so UA also isnt an option, leaving us only with the aura..

[@CrixGuides]

Yes, I plan to. Aff and Destro will have separate videos. I only put them together on this one because the gear is so much alike outside of the Fiery/Shadow Wrath and Trinket

[@nickabilla]

22 int on 1h is not in P3, its only from p4 onwards, otherwise great guide!

[@CrixGuides]

Thanks. I removed it.

[@CMeads91]

I mean, I seen a rogue rocking decay and sandstorm in BRD arena runs as soon as they were available. Spot the gold buyer... the economy is scuffed

[@CrixGuides]

Giga scuffed. It's crazy. Not to mention how expensive consumes are

[@AlCap0le]

how can you not have a million gold in sod. just buy it like everyone. wont be banned anyway

[@ToHonorKnowledge]

Don’t go to the warlock discord not only is it amazingly slow but the mods (specifically Niche and Teamspeakuser) are ban happy insult tossing a-holes. A change happens that requires only math, no in game experience, and people go to the lock discord to clarify how the change affects warlocks. Well because Noche and Teamspeakuser raid on thursdays, anyone who posts any new information just gets banned, because only they are allowed to say what is the truth. Super toxic environment. Wowhead will get you way way farther than the warlock discord. It’s a nasty place

[@Kikeron]

You cannot have +22 int at this phase, mate. Also you forgot Aquementas OH. +20 spell power

[@CrixGuides]

TY. I removed the Enchant, not sure why it was listed. Also good call on Aqua. Easy to get. I'd still use Enthralled over it until Drakestone tho.
