Warlock Talents - Level 15

Here is a look at the level 15 talents for warlocks.




Dark Regeneration

Comments: This talents is interesting. It gives you a healing cooldown and a pretty big chunk of health. For PvE, I could see this being useful for fights where you will be taking a large burst of damage. If I had this talent in Dragon soul I would see good use for this talent on Warmaster Blackhorn if I got caught in his cone effect or maybe on Madness right after the Elementium Bolt hits the ground. It definitely has its uses in PvE.

In PvP, the uses are great. Your healer gets silenced/CCed and you need to survive that burst damage. Or if you just need to survive a group of people training on your. I am curious to see if maybe there will be a glyph to allow this to be cast while stunned. I think that would really make it the go to PvP Talent.




Soul Leech

Comments: A more passive healing ability. In PvE I could see this being beneifical on encounters where your are taking constant damage. Fights like Ultraxion and Spine of Deathwing I think would be great fights for this ability. I am curious to see how this healing would counter the damage you take from Burning Embers as Destruction.

In PvP sadly I do not seeing this spell being as useful. As a caster, PvP is all about movement and instant casts. There just isn’t a lot of times where you’ll be able to sit and cast these spells. It could be beneficial in PvP a little but the other talents of this tier and much stronger for PvP.




Harvest Life

Comments: This spell feels like a strong AoE spell to use for fight that need a lot of AoE damage. I could see this spell being useful on a fight like Ragnoros or Warlord Zon’ozz where you will be taking a lot of damage as well as needing to do AoE damage. I really see this spell being strong for Demonology warlock (and kinda wish that we were tanks cause this spell would be amazing for tanks)

In PvP this spell may not be as strong. I could see it being used in battleground when there are a lot of people but with it being a channeled ability it means you aren’t moving but then again there is a level 90 ability that allows us to cast while moving so this might be a way for this spell to work.

My choices:

PvE: I could use any of the 3 abilities depending on the situation. We will have to see what the encounters in Mists of Pandaria are all bout before figuring out which one of these is the best. I foresee a lot of swapping similar to the way glyphs are depending on the fight.

PvP: Dark Regeneration will by my pick for this. Being able to heal yourself for 50% and then get increased healing is a very strong ability to have. I am especially interested to see if there will be a glyph which will allow this to be cast while stunned. If that is the case, then I really can’t see taking anything else for this tier of talents for PvP.
