On this page, you will find a number of useful simulation results for your Affliction Warlocks in World of Warcraft — Midnight Season 1.
Disclaimer Page
With the advent of certain tools, such as Raidbots, simulating your character has now become simple enough that we can recommend even the average player to do so. It is through advanced simulations that many of the recommendations in this guide are found, and by doing your own, you can easily figure out what talents you should be using with your particular gearing combination, what gear to equip, what Azerite Traits to use, and much more.
Simple Upgrade Finder
One of the most useful additions to simulations software is the new Droptimizer" feature on Raidbots.
The UI will let you pick the raid and difficulty.
After you finish running the simulation, you will be presented with the following graphic, which shows the value of upgrades from each boss, the average value of a drop, and the best-case scenario.
