<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> finishes out with demon form.</em><br />
<br />
You just boosted your warlock to 90, and now we have all basic warlock at 90 laid out for you:
<ul>
	<li><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/10/blood-pact-so-you-want-to-play-a-warlock/">General warlock 101</a></li>
	<li><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/24/blood-pact-affliction-101-at-90-in-the-end-of-mists/">Affliction 101</a></li>
	<li>Demonology 101, which is this article</li>
	<li><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/17/blood-pact-destruction-101-at-90-in-the-end-of-mists/">Destruction 101</a></li>
</ul>
Long-time readers will know that demonology AKA "demo" isn't my favorite warlock spec, but as I admitted to a friend recently, I can't recall seeing a "bad" demo warlock in organized raid. Demo 'locks are such well-oiled machines that once it clicks in your mind how to play, it's hard to<em> not</em> rock the meters.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/28/blood-pact-demonology-101-at-90-in-the-end-of-mists/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Demonology 101 at 90 in the end of Mists</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/28/blood-pact-demonology-101-at-90-in-the-end-of-mists/">Blood Pact: Demonology 101 at 90 in the end of Mists</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Fri, 28 Feb 2014 12:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> wants Drain Life filler back despite knowing it won't happen.</em><br />
<br />
So you just <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/10/blood-pact-so-you-want-to-play-a-warlock/">boosted your warlock to 90</a> and... You decided that <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/17/blood-pact-destruction-101-at-90-in-the-end-of-mists/">playing destro at 90</a> isn't for you, but you still want something easy to pick up. As of patch 5.4's changes to Soul Swap and the boost to DoTs after the KJC change, I'd argue affliction is easier to pull off than destro. Due to Soul Swap, everything is a single target to an "aff'lock."<br />
<br />
But I'm getting ahead of myself.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/24/blood-pact-affliction-101-at-90-in-the-end-of-mists/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Affliction 101 at 90 in the end of Mists</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/24/blood-pact-affliction-101-at-90-in-the-end-of-mists/">Blood Pact: Affliction 101 at 90 in the end of Mists</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 24 Feb 2014 09:00:00 EST.

This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> explores the beginning of MoP.</em><br />
<br />
The next thing is to write a "how to warlock" at 90 series, but I feel like I've done this before. The deja vu is strong with this one topic.<br />
<br />
Oh right! I wrote <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/08/27/blood-pact-playing-an-85-warlock-with-mop-mechanics/">something like it</a> back in 2012, when the big patch 5.0 first came out. Not all of the same advice is relevant -- well, Soul Link isn't what it was anymore, for one -- but the basics are all still there. I'll go over the specs in detail later, so let's start with the general introduction to warlocks.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/10/blood-pact-so-you-want-to-play-a-warlock/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: So you want to play a warlock</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/10/blood-pact-so-you-want-to-play-a-warlock/">Blood Pact: So you want to play a warlock</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 10 Feb 2014 13:00:00 EST.

This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> won't give it up on Soul Fire.</em><br />
<br />
Celestalon <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/26/what-ability-would-you-rather-not-say-goodbye-to/">started</a> the talk about what abilities would we be sad over losing. I don't know that warlocks would lose many spells with our recent expansion overhaul -- we're pretty streamlined as it is. Veteran warlocks can see and feel the difference between <em>Cataclysm's</em> complication and <em>Mists'</em> minimalism every time they play.<br />
<br />
A warlock class strength is that we're so flexible at dealing damage, whether we do it through DoTs or with direct damage, or whether we're single target masters or AoE beasts. So we end up with a good deal of situational abilities that confuse the casual or fresh warlock as to what should be keybound. We might not lose the amount of abilities that, say, hunters will, but we're likely not immune from the chopping block. Let's talk some suggestions.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/03/blood-pact-do-warlocks-have-button-bloat/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Do warlocks have button bloat?</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/02/03/blood-pact-do-warlocks-have-button-bloat/">Blood Pact: Do warlocks have button bloat?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 03 Feb 2014 09:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> is using old screenshots because they're pretty.</em><br />
<br />
My first post <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/14/blood-pact-how-to-fly-a-fighter-jet-part-1/">about user interface elements</a> was back in October? <em>Seriously?</em> Sheesh. Since then I've talked about <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/21/blood-pact-framing-a-fighter-jets-power/">unit frames</a>, how your <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/12/09/blood-pact-multitarget-dps-and-situational-awareness/">spells spread</a> in space, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/06/blood-pact-a-mini-grimoire-of-warlock-macros/">macros</a>, two <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/12/16/blood-pact-weak-auras-2-versus-tellmewhen/">proc tracking addons</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/20/blood-pact-chunking-shadow-and-flame/">keybinds</a>, and <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/13/blood-pact-weak-aura-strings-for-warlocks/">shared</a> some of my Weak Aura strings.<br />
<br />
The final topic is to use a boss mod effectively as a DPS, even when you're not the raid leader calling everything. The two popular boss mods, <a href="http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/deadly-boss-mods">Deadly Boss Mods</a> (DBM) and <a href="http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/big-wigs">Big Wigs</a> (BW), both work pretty fantastically out of the box, but using a boss mod properly can really enhance your spellplay during an encounter.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/27/blood-pact-be-the-boss-of-your-mods/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Be the boss of your mods</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/27/blood-pact-be-the-boss-of-your-mods/">Blood Pact: Be the boss of your mods</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 27 Jan 2014 13:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> tries to remember how she bound demonology last tier. Sorry!</em><br />
<br />
We've come a long way from <a href="http://cynwise.wordpress.com/2012/04/11/warlock-complexity-and-the-magic-number/"><em>Cataclysm's</em> complexity</a> for our spellcasting procedures. The warlock rotation in each of the three specs actually fits pretty well on the default action bars without needing a full page of macros, though you can use macros to fit it neatly into a couple of bars.<br />
<br />
You can have the keybind discussion without talking about chunking, but I think knowing how your spells fit together in the dynamic finger dance of combat brings life to otherwise boring keyboard (and mouse) layouts.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/20/blood-pact-chunking-shadow-and-flame/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Chunking shadow and flame</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/20/blood-pact-chunking-shadow-and-flame/">Blood Pact: Chunking shadow and flame</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> dares to share her stash of Weak Auras with the internet.</em><br />
<br />
Since I primarily take my own screenshots, we've seen my Weak Auras in action already. I've talked a little about <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/12/16/blood-pact-weak-auras-2-versus-tellmewhen/">how this addon and TellMeWhen</a> can accomplish some of the same user interface goals. Now, we finally get around to the big request -- let's see some warlock Weak Aura strings.<br />
<br />
The usual caveat applies here: these are my Weak Auras and they work fine for me within my own setup of playing a warlock that is unique to me. I'm sure someone will find my Burning Embers graphic irrelevant, but I remind you, to each her own.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/13/blood-pact-weak-aura-strings-for-warlocks/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Weak Aura strings for warlocks</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2014/01/13/blood-pact-weak-aura-strings-for-warlocks/">Blood Pact: Weak Aura strings for warlocks</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 13 Jan 2014 14:00:00 EST.

This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> discusses class identity.</em><br />
<br />
One of our editors, Adam Holisky, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/12/16/i-forgot-what-class-i-was-playing-yesterday/">forgot what class he was playing last week</a>, and it made me a little sad. It's great that he wanted to be a warlock again, but we are not hunters. We're not mages either, despite how convinced Matt Rossi is by shared armor. We're not shadow priests, we have demons not totems, and having purple wings is the only similarity between a demo 'lock and a night elf moonkin.<br />
<br />
I'm not out to make Adam eat his hat, but warlocks certainly distinguish themselves from other classes, I think.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/12/27/blood-pact-what-makes-a-lock-a-lock/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: What makes a 'lock a 'lock?</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/12/27/blood-pact-what-makes-a-lock-a-lock/">Blood Pact: What makes a 'lock a 'lock?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Fri, 27 Dec 2013 12:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> discusses more pretty on-screen colors.</em><br />
<br />
One of my raid's mages swears to use <a href="http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/tellmewhen">TellMeWhen</a> (TMW) over Weak Auras (use <a href="http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/weakauras-2">WA2</a>, now). I used to use Weak Auras exclusively, but now I use a combination of both addons in further combination with <a href="http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/raven">Raven</a>, a buffs and debuffs addon, and <a href="http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/affdots">AffDots</a>. While I can list any number of buffs and debuffs addons to help track procs and DoTs (ForteXorcist, Raven, NeedToKnow, Ovale, etc.), TellMeWhen and Weak Auras often top the list of mentioned addons.<br />

What's the difference between TMW and WA? What does one do better than the other?

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> discusses how to handle one, some, or many whelps.</em><br />
<br />
Before BlizzCon, I left off with <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/14/blood-pact-how-to-fly-a-fighter-jet-part-1/">the beginnings</a> of how to put together your UI. While it would be easy to generate a post of macros and Weak Auras import strings, that wasn't my intent. User interfaces in WoW are varied and can be unique to the player, so I think it's a greater lesson to learn how you can design your UI to help you, rather than to help patchwork import settings together for you.<br />
<br />
So while <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/21/blood-pact-framing-a-fighter-jets-power/">the setup of unit frames</a> may have seemed incredibly basic to some readers, knowing where some set frames are helps you take control of how your targets are presented to you. Much like healers considering a raid frames grid to be a central part of a healing UI, having damage targets at the ready is a central if often subconscious part of a DPS UI. Today is another basic topic, but it too has a subtle effect on how a proper UI setup can aid in DPS.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/12/09/blood-pact-multitarget-dps-and-situational-awareness/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Multitarget DPS and situational awareness</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/12/09/blood-pact-multitarget-dps-and-situational-awareness/">Blood Pact: Multitarget DPS and situational awareness</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 09 Dec 2013 12:00:00 EST.

This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> gets a little excited about a possibility. </em><br />
<br />
I think every month, the universe tries its best to unseat me from the warlock column. November is notoriously my worst month for anything, because everything wants to conflict with anything in November, for every one of my twenty-whatever years.<br />
<br />
But thankfully, when it comes to BlizzCon, I can just replay things over and over on the Virtual Ticket with no problem. While I wasn't expecting a lot of warlock changes, given how ridiculously revamped we were for <em>Mists of Pandaria</em>, there were still a few notes of interest we could go over if you missed out on watching or attending BlizzCon.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/11/18/blood-pact-warlocks-of-draenor/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Warlocks of Draenor</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/11/18/blood-pact-warlocks-of-draenor/">Blood Pact: Warlocks of Draenor</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 18 Nov 2013 15:00:00 EST.

<br />
I started <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/14/blood-pact-how-to-fly-a-fighter-jet-part-1/">part one as an introduction</a>, to set everything up. While "yaw" (keybinds and macros) and "pitch" (procs and cooldowns display) are important parts of a UI, you can't start doing your damage dealing job without a health bar to take down. So this week, we're going to look at all kinds of health bars you can find on a warlock's UI.<br />
<br />
You can see all my unit frames in action <a href="http://www.blogcdn.com/wow.joystiq.com/media/2013/10/full-ui.jpg">here</a> in the full version of the header image. Remember: I'm using the addons I use as examples, because it's easiest to draw from what I know. You can be an accomplished DPSer with minimal addons on a mostly default interface, if you so wish.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/21/blood-pact-framing-a-fighter-jets-power/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Framing a fighter jet's power</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/21/blood-pact-framing-a-fighter-jets-power/">Blood Pact: Framing a fighter jet's power</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 21 Oct 2013 13:00:00 EST.

<br />
It really tickles me that within a week of each other, two prominent names in the warlock community referred to the WoW UI with the exact same metaphor. One's a cutting edge world-class raider and the other is a former casual PvPer currently on a forced hiatus from intense gaming. Two different sides of warlock life and they both come to the same conclusion.<br />
<br />
Maybe great minds think alike. Or maybe it's just incredibly obvious how convoluted and misleading the user interface can become for even the average player in WoW. What makes a UI good?<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/14/blood-pact-how-to-fly-a-fighter-jet-part-1/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: How to fly a fighter jet, part 1</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/10/14/blood-pact-how-to-fly-a-fighter-jet-part-1/">Blood Pact: How to fly a fighter jet, part 1</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 14 Oct 2013 09:00:00 EST.

Last week, I couldn't fit trinkets into the article. I couldn't even fit in enough disclaimer and caveat into the article to address the article's problems.

It's all good. I'm going to survive. The healers haven't cleansed me since that last time I dropped the Gateway still inside the windstorm, so I'm stuck to my cookie cooldown. I really don't blame them for that. But, I gotta say it was worth a little cough to see all the melee drop dead like that. Don't worry, I'm not cursed or anyth--<br />

Patch week with a new raid tier? It's loot list time.<br />
<br />
You know the drill.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> thinks <a href="https://twitter.com/rygarius">Rygarius</a> rocks at patch-note writing, but we'd still like to summarize it further.</em><br />
<br />
There's a lot of changes besides the usual number tweaking to warlocks in patch 5.4. We'll wrap up the say before patch with a loot list, but here's a prose version of what the patch notes mean before we get into the shiny gear drops.<br />
<br />
Overall, there's probably a small nerf in damage since heavy movement fights will affect us once again. Our damage is shifting to our DoTs primarily with some support either from fillers on the move or a twist on our Dark Soul cooldown, depending on the level 90 talent we choose. Since the RPPM system has been tweaked a little to account for haste affecting not only proc bonus but proc chance, we also may see a shift from haste gearing to more solid mastery gearing, also since mastery for all three warlocks boosts damage done in our top damage spells.<br />
<br />
But check after the break for more specific changes.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/09/03/blood-pact-whats-going-on-with-locks-in-patch-5-4/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: What's going on with 'locks in patch 5.4</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/09/03/blood-pact-whats-going-on-with-locks-in-patch-5-4/">Blood Pact: What's going on with 'locks in patch 5.4</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Tue, 03 Sep 2013 20:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> fails at predicting patch day. Whoops. </em><br />
<br />
So I was moving living spaces and then I thought it'd be only a week before the patch launched. I have the gear drops list set up, and I figured no one wanted 1000 words when the obvious numbers pass happened -- our DoTs went up and our fillers went down. But then the patch release date became <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/08/21/patch-5-4-confirmed-for-release-on-september-10/">September 10th</a> instead of August 27th.<br />
<br />
You'd think I'd have learned this by now.<br />
<br />
What I have learned by now is to read up on other warlock things, particularly in aspects of WoW I don't personally play. I am in a 5/13 25H guild, but I doubt I'll reach world firsts any time soon, so it's fun to hear perspectives of warlockery from the likes of <a href="http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/twisting-nether/Sparkuggz/advanced">Sparkuggz</a> of EU-Twisting Nether's Method and <a href="http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/illidan/Shinafae/advanced">Shinafae</a> of US-Illidan's Blood Legion. Fortunately, new video series <a href="http://finalboss.tv/">FinalBoss.tv</a> got the chance to interview both for its <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2eXtlk-z00">third episode</a> about warlocks in <em>Mists of Pandaria</em>.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/08/26/blood-pact-finalboss-interviews-sparkuggz-and-shinafae/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: FinalBoss interviews Sparkuggz and Shinafae</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/08/26/blood-pact-finalboss-interviews-sparkuggz-and-shinafae/">Blood Pact: FinalBoss interviews Sparkuggz and Shinafae</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 26 Aug 2013 13:00:00 EST.

<br />
I think I've copied my warlock over to the PTR for most of the copies allowed, but I finally got <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=94524">Unerring Vision of Lei Shen</a> (UVLS) to get into my backpack a weekend ago, so an update to test out playstyles on the PTR is needed. Look at all those imps!<br />
<br />
I'm seeing more tweak-type changes being datamined than drastic changes like our tier 90 talents, and most gear names were revealed, so we might be getting down to the end of it.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/29/blood-pact-fewer-drastic-changes-loot-still-developing/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Fewer drastic changes, loot still developing</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/analysis-opinion/" rel="tag">Analysis / Opinion</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/29/blood-pact-fewer-drastic-changes-loot-still-developing/">Blood Pact: Fewer drastic changes, loot still developing</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 29 Jul 2013 15:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> attempts many experiments both on live and PTR realms. </em><br />
<br />
Last week, I had this whole thing planned to talk about the <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=135095">Thunderstruck</a> scenario of damage with <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/08/blood-pact-argggggghimondes-vengeance/">the olde Glyphe of Lyfe Tapp style Archimonde's Vengeance</a>. But literally before the deadline, the PTR builds finally caught up with the PTR patch notes and Archimonde's Vengeance was completely replaced by the new <a href="http://ptr.wowhead.com/spell=108505">Archimonde's Darkness</a>. Unfortunately, I didn't feel like I could spend at least 1000 words on a double cooldown; today, I can't even break 150.<br />
<br />
But before we get seriously into settled number-tweaking things like the datamined loot, let's talk about some other changes on the PTR.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/22/blood-pact-dark-soul-glyphs-and-more-ptr-fun/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Dark Soul, glyphs, and more PTR fun</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/22/blood-pact-dark-soul-glyphs-and-more-ptr-fun/">Blood Pact: Dark Soul, glyphs, and more PTR fun</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 22 Jul 2013 13:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> thinks up a silly idea for the crap talent. </em><br />
<br />
Although I'm pretty sure no one takes this talent, I'll probably have to preface that statement with an "almost" just to be safe. <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=137587">Kil'jaeden's Cunning</a> (KJC) is the "default" level 90 talent because <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108508">Mannoroth's Fury</a> (MF) is seriously situational and because <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108505">Archimonde's Vengeance</a> just plain sucks.<br />
<br />
PvPers might have used it in the beginning of the expansion, but most PvErs don't give it a second look. The passive damage often doesn't actually work because unavoidable encounter damage can be termed "environmental" -- the same reason why <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=32233">your pets don't die</a> while standing in green goop that otherwise kills <em>you</em>. The active damage just doesn't hit that hard.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108505">Archimonde's Vengeance</a> (AV) needs to be better if it's going to live in the same tier as KJC and MF.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/08/blood-pact-argggggghimondes-vengeance/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Argggggghimonde's Vengeance</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/08/blood-pact-argggggghimondes-vengeance/">Blood Pact: Argggggghimonde's Vengeance</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 08 Jul 2013 12:00:00 EST.

<br />
Or not, as I'll argue we warlocks have our own style of play.<br />
<br />
The damage dealing game isn't just about turning a mob down to 0 points at the end of the night, but about using the mob's health bar to vault over cooldown or resource barriers. Turning a warlock into a sitting duck in PvE requires either getting rid of all the mob health bars or getting rid of the warlock, which is usually accomplished by movement or threat of certain death. This struggle against being useless is what makes choices in a damage dealer's arsenal meaningful.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/01/blood-pact-flow-like-a-shaman-sting-like-a-hunter/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Flow like a shaman, sting like a hunter</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/07/01/blood-pact-flow-like-a-shaman-sting-like-a-hunter/">Blood Pact: Flow like a shaman, sting like a hunter</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 01 Jul 2013 17:00:00 EST.

<br />
Well. It's been a hell of a week on the PTR for warlocks, hasn't it? A few of the original patch notes have been changed for the better again in response to player feedback on the forums.<br />
<br />
Don't get me wrong, Patch 5.4 is still largely a depressing bunch of nerfs for warlocks. But let's go over the changes and make sure we have everything straight. The usual disclaimer of "things can and may change" still applies to all of these patch notes.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/24/blood-pact-patch-5-4-has-a-few-ups-but-mostly-downs/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Patch 5.4 has a few ups but mostly downs</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/24/blood-pact-patch-5-4-has-a-few-ups-but-mostly-downs/">Blood Pact: Patch 5.4 has a few ups but mostly downs</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 24 Jun 2013 14:00:00 EST.

<description><![CDATA[<div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="Patch 54 PTR More spell changes to facilitate warlock talent nerfs" data-src-height="317" data-src-width="580" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/wow.joystiq.com/media/2012/04/wowscrnshot032412164901.jpg" style="margin:4px" /></div>
Warlocks around the world have been weeping at the Patch 5.4 PTR intended nerf to <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=137587">Kil'jaeden's Cunning</a> and <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108508">Mannoroth's Fury</a>. Blizzard Community Manager Lore had already posted <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/14/patch-5-4-ptr-kiljaedens-cunning-nerfs-explained/">an explanation</a> for the tier 6 talent nerfs and some unseen PTR mechanics that were not in the patch notes to help aid warlocks in recovering DPS lost to movement.<br />
<br />
CM Lore is back tonight with another post of spell changes in the next build for warlocks in the continuing discussion of the <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=137587">Kil'jaeden's Cunning</a> and <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108508">Mannoroth's Fury</a> talent nerfs. After the break, you may read about a minor note about <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=5740">Rain of Fire</a> generating less embers (specifics currently unknown), so that the developers can further discourage use of the spell in single-target situations.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=77799">Fel Flame</a> is being reworked entirely: it will no longer extended DoTs and it has a 1.5 second cast time instead of being instant-cast. In return, <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=77799">Fel Flame</a> will be castable while moving and has received a small damage buff. <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=48181">Haunt</a>, in return, will go back to being interrupted by movement. Affliction is being further compensated for the loss of <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=103103">Malefic Grasp</a> while moving by expectedly moving the damage done power back into Haunt and the three DoTs.<br />
<br />
Finally, <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=137587">Kil'jaeden's Cunning</a> and <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108508">Mannoroth's Fury</a> are both on a 1 minute cooldown (down from 1.5 minutes) but also a lowered duration of 10 seconds (down from 15 seconds). <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108508">Mannoroth's Fury</a> applies to only the main AoEs but it provides a 100% damage increase to the specific AoE spells as well as the expanded area.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/18/patch-5-4-ptr-more-spell-changes-to-facilitate-warlock-talent-n/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Patch 5.4 PTR: More spell changes to facilitate warlock talent nerfs</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/18/patch-5-4-ptr-more-spell-changes-to-facilitate-warlock-talent-n/">Patch 5.4 PTR: More spell changes to facilitate warlock talent nerfs</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks.

<br />
Karazhan: the most beloved of retro raids. Players may put on the rose-colored glasses when they talk of how limited raiding was back in the Vanilla days, but Karazhan is often talked of <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2010/06/04/ready-check-i-miss-karazhan/">with fondness</a>. Going back is a pleasure, not a painful memory. It's with good reason -- the place is built like a castle tower, going up and up forever, and it's full of memorable mobs and scenery.<br />
<br />
Karazhan also has some of the tier 4 <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/itemset=645">Voidheart Raiment</a> for warlocks, as well as a mount and <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/02/04/knocking-out-naxxramas-for-pets-and-more/">now</a> <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/12/17/blood-pact-soloing-the-vanilla-raids-for-pets-and-more/">pets</a> for everyone, so it's a weekly favorite of mine to visit.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/10/blood-pact-karazhan-and-its-abyssal-depths-of-fun/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Karazhan and its abyssal depths of fun</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/10/blood-pact-karazhan-and-its-abyssal-depths-of-fun/">Blood Pact: Karazhan and its abyssal depths of fun</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 10 Jun 2013 15:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> didn't waste time getting a <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/item=97919">Whole Body Shrinka'</a> so she could re-enact <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v57sUtvNa5o">the Genie describing his living arrangments</a>.</em><br />
<br />
Originally, the last part of this column's series on <a href="http://www.worldoflogs.com/">World of Logs</a> (WoL) would be talking about the other parts of <a href="http://www.raidbots.com/">RaidBots</a> (EpeenBot and DPSBot) with WoL rankings, but as time went on, I realized I wanted to look at that data over a patch or tier rather than over just a week. Besides, I believe it's time next week for a break in these serious warlock matters.<br />
<br />
The previous four posts went over <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/29/blood-pact-world-of-logging-warlocks-part-1/">a very basic introduction</a> to WoL, the <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/06/blood-pact-wol-locks-and-damage-done/">graphs of WoL</a> important to warlocks, looking at <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/13/blood-pact-buffs-and-debuffs-for-warlocks-and-logs/">buffs and debuffs</a> on a timeline, and <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/27/blood-pact-combat-log-kung-fu-for-warlocks/">digging deep into the combat log</a>. This final post will look at comparing two logs more easily than flipping between browser tabs.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/03/blood-pact-using-comparebot-to-see-differences-in-logs/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Using CompareBot to see differences in logs</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/06/03/blood-pact-using-comparebot-to-see-differences-in-logs/">Blood Pact: Using CompareBot to see differences in logs</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> is finishing out the World of Logs posts while she hunts for BC-era battle pets.</em><br />
<br />
Have you ever tried to read the combat log? Maybe you're on the PTR testing a spell change or you want to know how often a new trinket procs, so you open the combat log chat window and start reading.<br />
<br />
You get twenty-something lines down before you realize something horrifying -- that's only <em>one second</em> of combat. Your jaw slowly falls to the floor and you reach up to pull your hair out as you contemplate reading a combat log for an entire raid fight -- that can sometimes last more than <em>six hundred </em>seconds and includes far more actors than just you and the training dummy.<br />
<br />
Luckily for us, when events are printed in a specified format without too much variety, computers can read and process --or parse -- these lines magnitudes faster than we humans can. <a href="http://www.worldoflogs.com/">World of Logs</a> has <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/06/blood-pact-wol-locks-and-damage-done/">graphs and charts</a> to help us understand our performance, but it also includes what is basically Google for your combat log. Just like there are tips to speed up and pinpoint your browser searches, there are tricks you can use to query events better in the <a href="http://www.worldoflogs.com/">World of Logs</a> expression editor.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/27/blood-pact-combat-log-kung-fu-for-warlocks/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Combat log kung fu for warlocks</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/27/blood-pact-combat-log-kung-fu-for-warlocks/">Blood Pact: Combat log kung fu for warlocks</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 27 May 2013 20:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> is free to pet battle all day, e'ry day.</em><br />
<br />
I tried to gauge when Patch 5.3 would hit so that I'd end the series on World of Logs just in time, but unfortunately I overestimated and the new patch has cut me off. With my original plan of posts, I'd be a week short, but now...uhhhh it might be a halftime break.<br />
<br />
In case you've missed the World of Logs posts so far, here's a recap:
<ul>
	<li><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/29/blood-pact-world-of-logging-warlocks-part-1/">A brief overview</a> of ranking and the combo of how to tell what warlock or pet you would or should be looking at,</li>
	<li>Looking closer <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/06/blood-pact-wol-locks-and-damage-done/">at some of the graphs</a> on World of Logs, and</li>
	<li>How to use <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/13/blood-pact-buffs-and-debuffs-for-warlocks-and-logs/">the buffs and debuffs graph</a> to gauge proper cooldown or proc usage, as well as a basic understanding of what stats (for trinket procs) do for each spec.</li>
</ul>
I intend to explore some warlock-specific examples using the expression editor to dive deep into the combat log, but I'm not sure I can fit it all into one post. I'll finish the series off with a deeper look at the damage done tables and how the spells spread for each spec in general raid encounter styles.<br />
<br />
But this week? This week is a little shorter and lighter while we go over what Patch 5.3 means for warlocks.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/20/blood-pact-catching-up-on-patch-5-3/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Catching up on Patch 5.3</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/20/blood-pact-catching-up-on-patch-5-3/">Blood Pact: Catching up on Patch 5.3</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 20 May 2013 14:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> is almost free for summer. Almost.</em><br />
<br />
The last two weeks have been on simple topics like <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/29/blood-pact-world-of-logging-warlocks-part-1/">glancing at a raid parse</a> on World of Logs (WoL) or <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/06/blood-pact-wol-locks-and-damage-done/">looking at the various graphs</a> WoL has. Before we dive into the actual combat log itself with the expression editor, I'm going to take a stop at what buffs and debuffs are going on in the fight. This information is still broad in scope and can apply to almost anyone, but it's still important foundation knowledge for warlocks and logs.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/13/blood-pact-buffs-and-debuffs-for-warlocks-and-logs/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Buffs and debuffs for warlocks and logs</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/13/blood-pact-buffs-and-debuffs-for-warlocks-and-logs/">Blood Pact: Buffs and debuffs for warlocks and logs</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 13 May 2013 09:00:00 EST.

<br />
<a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/29/blood-pact-world-of-logging-warlocks-part-1/">Last week</a>, I started off with some basics of World of Logs (WoL) regarding warlocks. I started to write a column to go spec by spec, but later I realized that might become a game of find and replace with the different buffs or DoTs important to each spec. So instead, this week is another general World of Logs lesson with a little more specific caster DPS focus with warlock flavor. We'll just build up to the nitty gritty spells next week.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/06/blood-pact-wol-locks-and-damage-done/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: WoL, 'locks, and damage done</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/05/06/blood-pact-wol-locks-and-damage-done/">Blood Pact: WoL, 'locks, and damage done</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 06 May 2013 13:00:00 EST.

This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> wonders how many logs would a warlock log if a warlock could log logs?</em><br />
<br />
Occasionally I get a request to look through someone's raid log on <a href="http://worldoflogs.com/">World of Logs</a> for warlock improvement. Sometimes it's for a guild applicant and sometimes it's for another tweeter. A thing I've thought about doing for a long time is a World of Logs 101 on warlocks -- <em>both </em>for warlock players <em>and</em> for non-warlock raid leaders.<br />
<br />
I'm starting with the bare basics: how to tell warlocks apart on a World of Logs parse and exploring the DPS rankings. (It's actually not that difficult anymore!)<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/29/blood-pact-world-of-logging-warlocks-part-1/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: World of Logging warlocks, part 1</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/29/blood-pact-world-of-logging-warlocks-part-1/">Blood Pact: World of Logging warlocks, part 1</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 29 Apr 2013 09:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> finally landed a heroic-mode soulwell this Ji-Kun kill.</em><br />
<br />
Every time we hit Ji-Kun, I try to place a soulwell mid-air. There isn't any performance-breaking reason to do this other than pure amusement as raidmates try to "grab the cookie from my jar, young grasshopper." But it's possibly my favorite use of <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=137587">KJC</a> so far.<br />
<br />
This isn't an trick that requires super skill. Mostly, it's whether or not you can time your cast, your latency, and the wind that grabs you off Gastropod Boulevard.<br />
<br />
But what I do like to do sometimes is watch elite players from the top guilds in the world do fights in a crazy or simply slightly different way. Usually this involves watching a lot of soloing videos: e.g, Spygnesy, who just uploaded <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CvWIccTpgI">a warlock solo of Ragnaros in Firelands</a>. But when it comes to minor tips for huge meter wrecking, I love watching Sparkuggz of <method> play.</method><p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/22/blood-pact-find-greater-knowledge-in-elites-tricks/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: Find greater knowledge in elites' tricks</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/22/blood-pact-find-greater-knowledge-in-elites-tricks/">Blood Pact: Find greater knowledge in elites' tricks</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 22 Apr 2013 13:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> may play affliction in-game, but really she's a destro 'lock IRL.</em><br />
<br />
I'm starting to dislike hit rating again. Previously, with reforging, it was totally possible to sit there with 14.96%, 14.97%, 14.98%, 14.99%, or the occasional rare times I nearly hit fifteen-even, just off by a mere handful of rating points. Now, with the huge amounts of stats on our gear, I feel like we're approaching Wrath-era hit rating juggling, where a new piece means you're way under hit cap or way over hit cap.<br />
<br />
This is not a fun stat balancing. Hit is coming back around to the pre-reforge era where it it's actually irritating to balance, not just annoying.<br />
<br />
But I don't want to talk about <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/11/05/blood-pact-zeroing-in-on-the-purpose-of-spell-hit/">spell hit</a> this time. I want to talk about the very-coolness of haste.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/15/blood-pact-the-chaotic-influence-of-haste/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: The chaotic influence of haste</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/04/15/blood-pact-the-chaotic-influence-of-haste/">Blood Pact: The chaotic influence of haste</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 15 Apr 2013 13:00:00 EST.

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> celebrates one year at WoW Insider with a fel fire victory.</em><br />
<br />
I promise, I won't put <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/02/07/how-to-get-green-fire-on-your-warlock-in-patch-5-2/">unfortunate spoilers</a> in the header this time.<br />
<br />
One of my favorite Blood Pacts to write was <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/05/07/blood-pact-those-who-are-not-afraid-to-wield-power/">a narrative</a> based around our spells and the hints of <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/05/01/mists-of-pandaria-learn-new-lore-from-in-game-book-legacy-of-th/">a fascinating possible subplot</a> just for warlocks. Instead of writing a traditional, straightforward guide for the final boss in the quest for green fire -- <a href="http://www.icy-veins.com/forums/topic/1710-kanrethad-guide-warlock-green-fire-video-and-guide-by-ackthal/">Ackthal's already written a great one</a> -- I want to celebrate my personal victory with the quest and another special occasion with this story post.<br />
<br />
See, this is my 53rd Blood Pact. I believe <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/bloggers/tyler-caraway/">a certain moonkin</a> now owes me a crown for the longest reign as WoW Insider's Defense <strike>Against</strike> With the Dark Arts professor.<br />
<br />
For the sake of space, I've obviously shortened the story down from my actual experience with the final fight. But many of the elements are there, from spell details to actual NPC roleplay (none of the NPCs' dialogue is mine).

<em>Every week, WoW Insider brings you </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/"><em>Blood Pact</em></a><em> for </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/affliction"><em>affliction</em></a><em>, </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/tag/demonology"><em>demonology</em></a><em>, and </em><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/destruction"><em>destruction </em></a><em>warlocks. This week, </em><a href="mailto:megan@wowinsider.com"><em>Megan O'Neill</em></a><em> scraps another attempt at Kanrethad to discuss being a pet class instead.</em><br />
<br />
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous pet bugs in encounter design like jumping down into Nefarian's pit in <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/zone=5094">Blackwing Descent</a> so your pet then did nothing but stand in the middle, or to take up <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=18540">Doomguards</a> against a despawning abyssal <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/npc=46753">phase 3</a> in Throne of the Four Winds -- and by opposing end them: to die, to <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108503">sacrifice</a>.<br />
<br />
To <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108503">sacrifice</a>, perchance to DPS; Aye, there's the rub, for in that sleep of death, what meter-topping dreams of 5.0 may come, when we have shuffled off this mortal coil (no, not <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108396">that one</a>!), must give our developers pause.<br />
<br />
My terrible warlock Shakespeare adaptation aside, we've had the ponderings about how tied to pets warlocks should or shouldn't be. As I continue to throw myself at Kanrethad's own demonic stampede, I've had some thoughts about the subject.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/03/25/blood-pact-to-summon-or-not-to-summon-thats-the-question/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Blood Pact: To summon or not to summon, that's the question</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/warlock/" rel="tag">Warlock</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/blood-pact/" rel="tag">(Warlock) Blood Pact</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/mists-of-pandaria/" rel="tag">Mists of Pandaria</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2013/03/25/blood-pact-to-summon-or-not-to-summon-thats-the-question/">Blood Pact: To summon or not to summon, that's the question</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Mon, 25 Mar 2013 20:00:00 EST.
