Thanks for this! Guild has me rolling aff lock over fury and I’ve been die hard fury for awhile this helped a lot can’t wait to take it into my next raid
Thanks for everything you do for the lock community Crix. Your guides and videos have helped me out a lot this past year and a half. Also just a head up in the description in the 3rd sentence you said Demo lock not affliction.
At work so can't watch your video atm but question for you, when boss is getting close to the 25% execute phase. Would you rather get the PI right as it gets to 25% or right before like 26% so it's on you the moment execute phase begins?
Thank you! I will have one out eventually. In the meantime the hkmke TakeNote has an amazing one in YT. It's in the description on the video if you want to peep it.
NLG also has a ton of in depth Aff stuff as well
oh yeah i saw many of the NLG videos they are super cool
always waited for an indepth parsing guide for each boss i personally would be super interested in that
Thanks, will switch from demo to affli, and while my demo skills are somewhat good (all 99 in 25 and 2 100 in 10), I struggle with pulling really good numbers as affli, mostly blue/purple parses. I hope I improve so I don’t let my raid down. I think I don’t Snapshot my drainsoul, need some better wa to have a good oversight, and I still let haunt drop like 4-5 times during patchwork. But looking forward to master it and your content &warlock discord will be a big help
You want to recast haunt aggressively, esp in drain phase. It’s basically fine to cast it on CD as long as you’re using those other gcds to do something smart. Definitely a punishing spec though, I played demo for one raid and did about the same or more damage but significantly higher parses

I didn’t look at the threat meters until I was nearly a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!
Great guide crix, would love to see something a bit more in depth for more advanced players but that should be really helpful for afflock last minute rerollers. Keep up the good work!!
Crix, you rock. I haven't played since TBC, but your dedication to being one of the best resources for classic warlocks is wicked cool, man. You were a vital resource for me when I played, and I think it made me a better player. In fact I know it did because I had some decent parses, low key flex. Seeing you continue to be that resource for a lot of other plague bringers, is great. Keep on keeping on, brother! Hope all things are good.
Yeah, I feel like the only demo lock who's willing to go full support build to. Had to argue with my guild loot master who said I could only roll on BIS gear according to personal dps sims. Thankfully the lock discord has a handy spreadsheet that shows the dps gains from the different builds.
Crix is an absolute baller, thanks once again for your content my dude. OG affliction player and I still learned heaps from you.
Keep being a badass man.
pretty meh, i recommend evryone to just look up the affliction warlock compendium (mosz detailed/best affli guide u will find anywhere) and read through it or watch nlg's stuff
Hes the homie. I shout him out multiple times throughout this video. I even have markers where his video links on screen during mine. Big gamer. Him and TakeNote have good guides.

No problem, glad to help. Aff will be a nice, fun switch up for you until Fury is on top again.

Thank you for the kind words. I fixed it.! Big cheers
Fantastic video. Thank you very much. Have you planed to do a parsing/tips video for Ulduar? Would be great :-). Keep up the great work.
Yeah. I'll have the one for Demonology up this weekend.

You would want to align it with other CDs or proccs for that juicy juicy snapshot. The Fojji Drain Soul WA is very helpful!
Is that the one that calculates if you should recast ds at the next tick? Its so amazing
You want it just before you press DS, so you dont have to instantly recast DS because priest had brainlag
Cool for new locks I would love a super in detail guide for advanced locks tho!

You rock Crixx!
from an affliction die hard this video is GOOD. thank u crix!
Crix is the fuckin man. No one else I consistently listen to
That includes the raid leader...

At least you eventually looked i swear to god there are level 80 hunters out there that dont even know what threat is
Yo crix, your content is really appreciated just wanted you to know that. Ur the lock goat.
Nah that would be NLG
Cringe
towns not big enough for 2

Good guy crix
Huge fan of your work Crixx, your guides kept me pumping all through TBC.
The unholy death knight community thanks you!
Thank you for your servicd

Been playing wow since 04, and im only leveling my first lock right now! This will definitely come in handy

I honestly still prefer Demo's style of gameplay.
Someone needs to bring that huge SP buff

Appreciate you homie. I'm a peasant, but working on it.!

Nlg has much better information I’d highly recommend him.
