World of Warcraft Warlock Guide / Warlock Leveling Guide

Warlocks in World of Warcraft have always been a unique class. There is nobody else out there like us Warlocks. For that, we need different leveling strategies than the other class. The World of Warcraft Warlock Guide / Warlock Leveling Guide is designed for only Warlocks. While other classes might find these strategies useful, a Warlock will benefit the most from them.

Warlock Leveling Guide Rule 1:

Always keep a plentiful number of soul shards on you. If you're using Shadowburn, (which is highly recommended if you want to level quickly) you never want to be caught without a Soul Shard in your bag. This can mean the different between a death (running 10 minutes back to your corpse) and pulling off that win. Remember, leveling up fast means constantly pushing the limits of how fast you can kill enemies. Luckily, Warlocks are equipped with Soul Shards that can be expended to yield surprising amounts of damage. Always keep them in your soul bag!

Warlock Leveling Guide Rule 2:

Always keep your pet out. I've come across multiple Warlocks that don't use their pet because it's "stylish" not to use them, or they just don't like them. Look, if you're not going to use your pet, go play a mage. Leave us Warlocks to what we do best - using our pet AND our spells to the maximum advantage. The only reason any warlock shouldn't have a pet out is if they're spec'd demonology and they get bonuses for sacrificing their pets. If you're not, always use the Voidwalker. The Voidwalker is the key to remaining efficient when hunting with a Warlock. The Voidwalker will:

1) Taunt creatures and keep them from pummeling your robed butt to death
2) Provide you with an invulnerability shield if you have to run (increasing your surivivability which increase speed)
3) Take more damage than you.

The Imp and Succubus are only good in group scenarios, if you're solo levleing up, love the Voidwalker.

Warlock Leveling Guide Rule 3:

Run away! It might sound cowardly and an unattractive way to fight, but running away is one of the Warlock's best tools to take creatures they normally wouldn't be able to kill. Place your damage over time spells on that target and when he comes to chase you, run away from him. By the time he catches you, you'll have done so much damage to him that it won't matter if he's 4 levels higher than you.

Tip: Curse of Exhaustion works wonders when using the "running away" method as well. Any Warlock can only have one curse on the same target at one time. You'll just have to play around with the strategy and see whether Curse of Exhaustion works well for you by slowing them down, or if you really need the extra damage from Curse of Agony.

As a general tip, always keep bandages on your character. In the Warlock's case, they're doubly useful. They can be used to get you some long lost health back in the middle of a fight, after a mana tap or on the verge of death. They can also be used to heal your voidwlaker. Healing isn't just for Priests you know! Warlocks can heal too...with bandages!
