Leviathan's Eye of Intellect in one socket, and
Quick Jewel Cluster (or the cheaper 
Quick Jewel Doublet) in all other
sockets.

Consumables for Destruction Warlock
Best Flasks and Potions for Destruction
Potion of Spectral Intellect is the best choice in any situation.
Spectral Flask of Power should be used as your flask of
choice.
Spiritual Healing Potion should be used alongside
Healthstones for emergency healing.
Best Weapon Oil for Destruction
Shadowcore Oil should be used as your weapon oil.
Best Armor Kit for Destruction
You should always use 
Heavy Desolate Armor Kit as the preferred
choice over the cheaper 
Desolate Armor Kit on your chest piece.
Best Food for Destruction
You should eat from the 
Feast of Gluttonous Hedonism when possible,
and otherwise Haste food (
Tenebrous Crown Roast Aspic or the cheaper
Cinnamon Bonefish Stew).
If simming yourself results in a different best secondary stat than Haste, you should eat that food instead.
Augment Runes for Destruction
If you can afford it, you should use 
Veiled Augment Runes to
increase your primary stat. Since there is a finite amount of these runes
available, you should make sure to use them wisely and to stock up on them
for when you need them.
