Affliction Warlock PvP Gear Guide for WotLK Classic

The gear list below is following the stat priority of Hit Cap (6%) > Spell Penetration(130) > Resilience > Haste > Spell Power and will include items available exclusively from Wrath Raids, Professions, Battlegrounds and Arena PvP rewards.

This page only focuses on the best in slot gear for a PvP Affliction Warlock. You can learn more about how to leverage your unique skills by reading our full Affliction Warlock PvP guide below:

This is a list of items that are considered to be best in each slot for PvP-based content. If you are instead looking for a PvE-focused list for either pre-raid or best-in-slot gear, make sure to check out our Warlock gearing hub below. Some PvE gear is used even in PvP, allowing you to use certain items almost all of the time.

The items in the list below are best in slot for Phase 4 / Season 8 until the release of Ruby Sanctum. Please note that the list assumes you are Human by default. If you play another race, there will be other options listed which are better for non-Humans.
