Welcome to Wowhead's guide to Adapting to Battle for Azeroth's pre-patch guide as a Affliction Warlock. Patch 8.0 brings a lot of changes from BFA to the world of Azeroth and this guide is made to make sure you are prepared for all upcoming changes. This guide gives you an overview of all the changes happening with patch 8.0 for Affliction Warlock.
This pre-patch page is intended to help you know the changes to Affliction Warlock during the pre-patch. Note that during pre-patch, while artifacts
no longer work
, we do not have our
azerite powers
yet, meaning this isn't the final picture for specs in BFA. However, we still retain the powers from legendaries, which will continue working
up to level 115
, creating some interesting situations, as some effects from legendaries
became baseline effects or talents in BFA
.
On our other guide pages, including
Rotations
,
Talents & Builds
, and
Stat Priorities
, you will find detailed recommendations on how to play your Affliction Warlock, accounting for the changes shown here, during the 8.0 BFA pre-patch.

Finally, in order to compensate for the removal of
生命分流
, many of our spells had their mana costs significantly reduced. These are listed below.
放逐术
Cost changed from 2.5% of base mana to 1.5% of base mana
制造治疗石
Cost changed from 5.0% of base mana to 2.0% of base mana
制造灵魂之井

War Mode
Another change from Legion into BFA is the addition of
War Mode
. War Mode is a new World PvP system in the Battle for Azeroth pre-patch, along with the new Honor system and Honor Talents. You are now able to toggle War Mode while in a capital city to gain access to PvP Talents in the outdoor world as well as other bonuses, like increased rewards from World quests and 10% extra experience. The downside is that you will always be in PvP combat mode, with the rewards counterbalancing that risk.
Changes to the Global Cooldown (GCD) for Aff Locks
The Global Cooldown, or GCD, is a short lockout period which controls the rate with which abilities can be used; spells that are on the GCD are unable to be used simultaneously, while only abilities off the GCD can be used at the same time or during that lockout period. The global cooldown starts at 1.0 second for energy resource classes, and 1.5 seconds divided by haste for all others.
In Battle for Azeroth, many abilities which used to be off the GCD are now controlled by it. For Aff Locks the abilities affected by this change are:
黑暗灵魂:哀难
1.5s GCD
Fortunately for Warlocks, the only ability that has been added to the GCD that was not previously on it is our new talent,
黑暗灵魂:哀难
. Since we're not taking this in most situations, you're not going to be affected by the GCD changes at all.
Returning Legendary and Artifact Effects
In Battle for Azeroth, many old artifact traits and legendary effects from Legion were turned into talents and baseline abilities. It is known that we will lose our Artifacts
in a future event
. To add to that, Legion legendaries
will stop working at level 116
. To learn more, check out
our full article about returning effects in Battle for Azeroth
.
For Aff Locks the returning effects are:
The effects from the legendary
永恒蔑视兜帽
likely inspired the new talent
死亡蔓延
.
普瑞达兹,萨瓦里克的杰作
effect became the new azerite trait
回声防护
.
Carry over from Legion
In Battle for Azeroth, we lose our artifact weapons from Legion. Gone are all of the traits, unique effects, and our artifact ability, Reap Souls. Unfortunately, most of our legendary effects were too strong to be put into Battle for Azeroth - the only apparent holdover from Legion is the new talent,
死亡蔓延
. It has the same effect as our old legendary,
永恒蔑视兜帽
, however it applies to all of our DoTs, instead of just
痛楚
.
How this affects your playstyle
While I'd like to put something philosophical about how the new expansion pre-patch leads to new playstyles, you're really not going to end up playing affliction any differently from how you did before. You're primarily a DoT focused class, and the one major difference is that you'll be filling with Shadow Bolts instead of Drain Soul unless you really like that spell and talent into it. Darkglare and Deathbolt are neat additions that you press every 3 minutes and 30 seconds respectively, but there are no major gameplay changes that come along with them - at least until we get access to the new Azerite traits.

Really hate to see Life Tap going away.

How about suggestions on what leggo's to use? Also, any ideas on what tier is going to be useless? Just want to make sure i get some relinquished to replace any Tier that will possibly be rendered useless. Also, why take Grimoire of Sacrifice, over Haunt or Shadow Embrace and use your Voidwalker to tank and keep aggro in your questing talent suggestion?
