What is Corruption?
Corruption is a new system of power progression which replaces Titanforging; instead of item level bonuses, they will now have a chance to be Corrupted by the Old Gods, represented by the purple-colored stat which adds both a positive effect and stacking negative attribute which incurs penalties at various thresholds. Although the negative effects can reach a point at which they become debilitating, carefully managing the bonuses and penalties allows for a great deal of customization and individual power gain.
Corrupted gear can be freely cleansed by MOTHER in order to remove both effects and revert them back into normal items. Corruption can also be added on non-corrupted items, by purchasing
Preserved Contaminants with MOTHER
. Corruption resistance can also be gained over time, both from new minor essences, and the legendary cloak
, allowing more corrupted effects to be worn. For more information on all potential Corruptions, see our
Corruption Overview Guide
.
Buying Corruptions with Echoes of Ny'alotha for Demonology Warlock
Corruptions now can be
purchased from MOTHER
using
. Every few days, a new set of Corruptions will be accessible.
With that in mind, here are the best corruptions to purchase from MOTHER on a Demonology Warlock.
-
: Ideally you will want 5-6 R3
-
: Only want 1-2 piece with this on it
-
/
/
/
: Used after you have the ideal Expedient pieces
-
: Some merit to having this trait on your gear for M+ but overall will be worse than just stacking Expedient
Keep in mind that you should still sim your character as diminishing returns can affect how much of any stat you might want. Additionally Demonology can acquire any number of stats to scale off of, Haste being the best.
Best Demonology Warlock Corruption Bonuses
We have comparative simulations for each of the various Corruption affixes which can roll on gear, courtesy of SimulationCraft and Bloodmallet. While this overview should give you a good general idea of how each compare to one another, your specific character may see slightly different results based on how you are geared and what Corruptions are available to you; you can create your own comparisons as well as combinations of different essences you have unlocked on your character using
Raidbots
Top Gear function. If you are not already familiar with Raidbots and how to use it, take a look at our
How To Guide
. When looking at corruption effects it is important not to look at the overall power of a given effect, but at how much power per corruption is gained while staying below your safe threshold. By using Top Gear, you can play with the Max Corruption bar, allowing you to maximize your damage based on your Corruption risk choices.
This is simply an overview and doesn't take into account the negative effects of stacking Corruption. While increasing Corruption will continually increase player power, it comes at the cost of serious side effects, which may be debilitating in some activities or encounters. Reference the Corruption Effect notes and recommendations below to see how your spec can best take advantage of these bonuses and deal with the detriments.
Please also note that when using more than one of the same corruption, even different tiers of the same corruption, the effect/benefit (damage, statistical gains, etc) stack while durations and proc rates remain unchanged. The only exception is
, unique to the Ny'alotha raid weapon
, which will proc independently when dual wielded.
This section is highly subject to change based on tuning that may occur.
Demonology Warlocks will generally prioritize any passive stat depending on your current stats. Below is an overview of the best corruption effects currently. Note that these rankings may differ for you depending on your character.
Data from Bloodmallet. Click here to learn more about it.
Best Effects
- More Haste is always a good thing.
- More Crit for all Warlock and Pet/Guardian casted abilities.
- More passive overall damage increase for Pet/Guardians.
- Has potential to be very competitive especially in more sustained AoE situations.
Good effects
- Based on recent tuning this effect is no longer the bees knees but still serviceable.
- Can be good but requires you to be in melee for maximum effect which is not possible for many types of counters.
Bad Effects
- Not very useful as the increased Critical Strike damage does not apply to your Guardians (Tyrant, Imps, Dreadstalker, etc).
- Does not have high enough proc rate to matter overall in combination with Vision of Perfection.
- Interesting, yet lackluster, providing an additional 3 or 5 seconds off cooldowns per proc.
- Crit stacking has little benefit for Demonology compared to other stats.

- A very large hit of damage based on your HP pool (which is already higher than most classes) and when procced against multiple enemies is very strong.

- Could have potential to be good but may mess up any lined up cooldowns you have for burst phases, etc.
- Duration of effect does not benefit Demonology.
- Potentially strong if each Imp triggered by Implosion has a chance to proc the effect. The ability is a base 2 RPPM.
Best Demonology Warlock Ny'alotha Weapons
Besides random corruption effects, weapons from the new Ny'alotha raid also have exclusive effects on them, which can be quite powerful. Similar to random corruption effects, if you obtain a weapon with a subpar effect, you can always cleanse it. As a Demonology Warlock, you can obtain weapons with the following effects:
always comes with
- This corruption is incredibly good for single target encounters, but also comes at a heavy corruption cost. Because the effect can be rolled on random pieces of gear, it's likely you'll be able to get the effect elsewhere and cleanse or use a different weapon.
always comes with
- Likely cleansed in favor of other corruptions, as the effect isn't strong enough to be prioritized, but can still be randomly rolled.
Dealing with Negative Effects of Corruption
In addition to the bonuses, corrupted items also increase the Corrupted stat by varying amounts based on the tier of the effect. Corruption stat incurs penalties that the player must deal with, and while these effects start out rather benign, they quickly ramp up in both potency and impact, to the point where it can be very hard to deal with during a Dungeon or Raid encounter, and even become outright debilitating at the highest levels.
There are five effects unlocked at different total corruption levels:
- Unlocked with 1 Corruption
- Unlocked with 20 Corruption
- Unlocked with 40 Corruption
- Unlocked with 60 Corruption
- Unlocked with 80 Corruption

At Rank 6, the legendary Cloak
gains an on-use effect which will remove and immune all currently active negative corruption effects.
- You can basically completely remove this negative effect by using
.
- Again you can use
to avoid these void zones on demand. The legendary cloak dispel can be used in cases where strategy restricts you from moving.
- Since the Thing from Beyond disappears when stunned, picking
can have some benefit reducing the cooldown of your stun if you cannot get full use or benefit from
- If you allow your Corruption to reach this level you should be diligent about your use of your whole toolkit to assist you. The tips above should allow you some wiggle room if you end up playing with this much Corruption.
How Much Corruption Should a Demonology Warlock Take?
Based on current tuning you will want to remove any/all Corruption bonuses that aren't
until you get additional Corruption resistance. Typically any Corruption bonus you will want would be to increase your passive stats. While raiding it might even be prudent to simply avoid as much Corruption as possible since most effects are not great and you can mitigate most negative effects.
Generally you will want to be looking for
sub 40
ideally but if you end up going over there are ways to deal with the effects.
For Mythic+ you should highly consider getting as many Haste Corruption pieces as you can since (if you remember the start of Dazar'alor) getting into very high Haste values can have significant impact on your damage. Since you are stacking Explosive Potential traits for Mythic+ the value of added Haste from Corruption is significantly more valued here than in raiding (where you don't go out of your way to use Explosive Potential).
