QUESTIONS
Warlock talent FAQ
Rules, data provenance and what the Forever preview changes for your class. More on the Data Sources page.
How many talent points does a Warlock get in WoW Forever? +
Like every class: one point per level from 10, for 51 points at level 60. Tree tiers unlock at level 10 + 5 per row and need 5 points per row already spent in that tree.
What is new for Warlock in WoW Forever compared to Classic? +
The live beta trees carry 19 brand-new Warlock talents (Malediction, Soul Harvesting, Improved Drains, Pandemic, …), 28 changed, 3 moved and 2 unchanged across your Affliction / Demonology / Destruction trees, plus 17 Classic talents retired from the trees. See the change list above for details.
Do Warlock talent rules change in WoW Forever? +
The framework is pure Classic: 51 points, tier gates at 5 points per row, prerequisites must be filled before points go in, and dependent talents block removal. This calculator enforces all of it.
Where does this Warlock talent data come from? +
