The Voidwalker

Voidwalkers are great early on tanks to assist the warlock in getting used to its spells and rotations, but as the warlock increases in level, the voidwalker will have a harder time holding the threat from the warlock, and eventually it will become nearly impossible.  Using the voidwalker to tank past level 20 is not recommended.  If you have problems with monsters getting too up close and personal, simply use your fear to push them away and keep on attacking them. There are plenty of world of warcraft warlock guides out there to explain how to use the voidwalkers and help you get the best out of them.

Use the Fear

Fear is a useful tool for any warlock to use, but it has to be used with extreme caution.  You cannot use fear recklessly as fear can cause any fight to become a bad thing for you by attracting additional monsters.  If it is crowded when you are pondering using fear, then you shouldn’t use it.  If it is a life or death situation, then only use it if it will allow you to survive in the end.  On a lot of elite monsters and boss monsters, fear will not work and would be nothing but a waste of mana.  If you are unsure and want to conserve your mana, then you may want to download an add-on called “Necrosis”.  This add-on will allow you to not only instantly find out if a monster has immunity to fear or banish, but will keep track of other aspects of your warlock, and allow easy access to your pets and curses. Take a look above for the Ultimate World of Warcraft Warlock Guide and Leveling Guide to master these tools!

Sometimes the sheer amount of spells, skills and pets that a warlock can have becomes overwhelming and can cause someone to shy away from a warlock.  This is easily solved with use of an add-on to keep everything straight and in order.  If you are still unsure about any aspects of your warlock, one of the best sources of information you will come across will be other warlocks.  A simply /who 80 warlock on any realm, horde or alliance will yield you any online level 80 warlocks, and usually some of them will happily answer questions.  So long as your questions are not requests for gold or power leveling! Alternatively another world of warcraft warlock guide like this one will do the job too.

A bag O’ Soul Shards

One thing many warlocks forget and many party members also forget is that a warlock relies heavily on soul shards and a lot of the things that a warlock does, happen to require soul shards and they can burn through them rapidly.  Warlocks need to keep a large stack of soul shards at all times, and at least keep a soul shard bag full at all times.  Some warlocks even suggest keeping extra soul shards inside other bags to ensure that you don’t run out.  Summons can become very costly, although the new summoning method implemented with the Wrath of the Lich King expansion has greatly reduced the amount of soul shards that a warlock consumes by popping up a summoning portal similar in function to the soul well that dispenses health stones.  This summoning portal can be used by anyone and only consumes one soul shard.

In the end, a warlock brings a wide array of skills and talents to your raid or party, and they are very useful in PVP combat.  Including a warlock in any of your end game plans will definitely be a step in the right direction!
