Hello,

First off... I love your guide and all of the other class guides, thanks!  At level 45 you suggest picking up Haunt but do not place it into the rotation.  Not a huge deal but thought you might not be aware

I am new to the warlock class, but I think you need to do some updates for Affliction leveling as Demon Armor is no longer available, at least at level 10 like it says. Seems to be some other talents that have changed as well. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for the guide.  A little confused though.  I select the appropriate level that my toon is, but your talent tree doesn't show same as in game for that level. in fact you're showing 2 points too many which in turn makes the rotation wrong as some items missing. So nothing really works.

Thanks for writing this guide.  I'm still wrapping my head around the new talents.  In the text you say to cast Summon Darkglare, but it is not suggested in the leveling talent build.  Am I missing something?

My mistake, as a part of the Dragonflight release update i am also going to edit the talent trees

It appears the sliders in the leveling guide don't actually work; it acts like it is set to level 70 regardless of the actual setting, which kinda defeats the purpose IMO.  Are there plans for this to be fixed?  Thanks :)

The slider current implementation affects the rotation section, not the talent tree display itself, to follow the path just look at the left side of the talent tree where the order of the talents and their level requirement is displayed.

Pretty silly to recommend Inevitable Demise as part of the rotation when it isn't even in the talent build. 😛

I can't get drain soul from any trainers so far and I'm lvl 25, what the heck did I miss?

Drain Soul is now a talent, so it will change the Shadowbolt into a new spell. If you have issues finding it anywhere to then drop it on your bars just drag it from the talent panel.

You have, "Level 29 - Use Vile Taint." but you do not have the talent selected until level 33.
