IT SUCKS NOT BEING META || Affliction Warlock to KSH 

You're the reason I started M+, thanks for making great content and happy new year!

Loving this series !!! I look forward to it every week !!

I've legit been checking your profile every day for this episode. Keep it up!

I love this. Really opens the community's eyes on the "non-meta" stigma. You're killing it bro

I only found your channel yesterday and I'm loving these videos. As someone who's always been too nervous to jump into endgame content I really appreciate this look into how the system works

as an aff lock that gets shit for not wanting to go demo simply cuz its more damage in my raids, i appreciate this series alot!

so much fun watching u play, learn and reflect ureself. Ure voice is smooth - keep it up

I love how the video is 20% about keys and 80% about you being impressed with your dmg. DPS main in a nutshell. :'D Hope you had a enjoyable christmas and gz on surpassing 10k subs. Well deserved my man!

As a mistweaver main (even though mw is very meta this season) I loved this series when I found it and was introduced to your channel last season, and I'm glad to see you doing it again.

Great video i really like your "to ksh" series😊

Dilli, these vids are so fun. You're crushing it, I look forward to every vid.

Sweet stuff man love your videos ! Cheers and push those keys :D (hint use [Belor'relos, the Suncaller] in mele range :D)

Dont hesitate to pop Curse of tongue on caster bosses, usually really makes fight easier and you do it every 1 minute

1 tip for your next Everbloom, use Curse of Tongues during that council fight on 1 of the deadly casters, probably the toxic one, its great utility and its free baby! I am still learning to make use of my curse spells, anything with dangerous casts is worthy to slap Tongues on

These videos are so fun. I'm a warlock main (demo for obvious reasons this tier), but I played aff a ton in keys last season. You're definitely figuring it out. Few tips for ya: 1. You can use demonic circle to get out of entagling. 2. You can macro soulburn to your gate to instantly cast it. 3. Get a weakaura to remind you to sacrifice or summon your pet!! :D

One thing I recommend doing early on when starting to learn warlock is to use the gateway control shard on a keybinding!

Nice video once again:) Incorporeal can be banished and/or feared.

This series is really fun

Love the videos ands the series!! Also love your ui… do you have any links or videos on this? All good if not!

Hi Dilli, new subscriber here. First thing's first - brilliant series, please keep it up with other classes as well, especially non-meta ones! Second, what's your damage font/style addon? I watched both your UI videos but couldn't find it. It looks great and it's more like the old school damage style. Thanks!

Really enjoying this series :) The non-meta struggle is rough. I play arms warrior, and on average i have to apply for 20-25 groups of 11-15's to get in, at an ilvl of 465. People are VERY picky!

Im also playing affliction, how funny youtube recommends this, good job YT! other than Aff being my old main and will eventually try to get 20's (15's in Legion/BFA when it was the equivalent of a 20 this exp) on it done in any expansion, i was kinda shocked to find out how well it plays with the 4set soulrot build and if this is the least meta spec in the game I can only say Blizz done a brilliant class/spec design in general in terms of balance, the way the community treats the meta is another story tho, haha I had to be a higher ilvl (461) to get a 16 done last night, wich had to eventually be done by pugging my own key because of the 0 invites but hey, getting there :D!

I’m am affi main! Glad to see somebody pushing it to ksm!

im probably super late to the party but i absolutely love the addon for the character panel where you see all the gear and stats what is it called! Love the vids

As affliction you want haste/mast, even though the neck was veteran and from LFR, neck pieces provide no main stat so I was screaming to take that instead lol.

Ohhh lord I love this series

I literally started doing Mythics on my Warlock because of these videos:)

Thinking about affli too. Its nice that seeds applying dots instant. I think with higher keys you would pump way more but i would be happy with this dmg also 😅

Hey man, loving this series! Can I ask, what weak aura are you using for the m+ dungeon information on the right of your screen? Much cleaner than what I have, and I can't seem to find it; thanks!

been along time since i have actually enjoyed a wow-video :)

Dear Dilli, you don’t necessarily need to have a focus Target Macro ( 11:07 ), you can also turn on Mouseover Casting in your setting and it will do the same thing ;) Hope this helps!

I stopped playing my aff in s2 but now im returning to him, and you are one of the reasons for that 🤣🤣🤣 Man my GM is going to hate you for that 😅😅😅

I need to get that pretty rainbow mouse thingie. Where can I get that one. Love the series. Keep it up❤

Hey! The series is fun to watch. I was just curious about your addons. What do you use for your quest tracking?? That frame looks pretty nice

Bro that trinket is very good for M+ it syncs perfectly with soul rot , i hope you simed it as dungeon slice (on ST isnt that good not for its stats but rather its debuff).

Lovely! You inspired me to pick up warlock as well, and I wanna say ranged is hella harder than melee. Side note, it seems that you’re not using flasks, or mention them when talking about consumables.

Gateway control shard or whatever it's called. The item that lets you keybind instead of clicking gateways is invaluable for everyone not just locks. Make or get a weakaura to remind you to pet or sac pet (I use one of these as a warlock of 15 years). As a aff lock, it's also handy to have cast @focus macros for all your basic dots (I use a shift modifier on my regular dot keybinds). That way you can handle two targets without ever switching targets. It's almost fire and forget... When you dot your primary, just press it again with shift held down to do secondary too.

Great series!! New to your channel! I absolutely love your UI. Any way I could find it?

I feel like your are the OG of this kind of content. Now every man and his dog is copying you. Luv your work mate.

Hey Buddy cool Video just came back to WoW :) Ty for the Vid I know now what do to with my Char to increase the I level. Its always Kinda difficult for me to figure out what to do this late into the Expansion.^^ Is there a way to get youre modlist and your Ui setup i absolutly love it ^^ Thanks in advance ^^

this makes me actually want to play a warlock :D

i am 99% sure that you need to use belor'relos trinket in melee range and not from distance (got a guildie lock who is playing it and he is always melee when he using it :D Love your videos keep up the good content

Dilli i saw a few times you cast Belor'relos Trinket at range you have to cast it in melee range of the target its a splash AOE around you not your target just knowing that will increase your dps by atleast 10k maybe more and it should be the first abilitie cast on pull after your precast =P

BiS trinkets + 4 set are an amazing spot to be in at 450 ilvl that's fucking nuts honestly. Speaking on Demonology though, for me, Pip's outsims Spindle in keys and it definitely doesn't feel as clunky playing with one passive trinket option, and I would assume it's probably the same story for Aff if for no other reason than it prevents further ability bloating, which Aff struggles with. With changes to Malefic Rapture it's a little easier to maintain dots all around, so definitely don't be afraid to roll SL on more than one target in trash if your haste lets you and you won't lose on major casts. It's only going to increase your damage (and survivability, to a much lesser extent). Demonic Circle is ridiculously strong, and the better you learn to utilize it the better your Lock gameplay becomes. Gateway will still generally trigger floor traps or other ground dynamics, teleport won't because you don't physically pass over any terrain. 9:14 Two other options to live here: Once you're safe out of pie slice, you can drop Circle to prep for P2 to get there fast/safe. Alternatively, burning rush off the rip on pie slice cast and a good line and you'd have been fine. Keep it up. Love the Aff representation.

For the next you should try survival hunter

Affliction warlock is the most beloved warlock’s spec for me in retail, and I wish affliction warlock deal more damage than tanks do)

A nice trick for Manifest Timeways is to max range the boss so you give yourself more time to avoid the balls, also if you put ur demonic circle ahead of you, you can use that to just jump over the balls once they clear!

focus target is great for destruction, to quick pass havoc. For Aff, there is too many, and mouse over macro's are way more better for affliction. They work on the boss frames, and just in the screen. What you didn't do however is use any of the curses that warlock have. CoT on council boss helps a lot, on higher keys people run amp CoT

Hey sup! New follower here. I love this kind of content, pretty original. Just to say that discord link doesnt work :(

I have mained warlock for 10+ years and your issue with positioning is the sole reason i don't enjoy affliction. Sure you can use circle and gate but affliction have one of the highest skill requirements of any spec but mastering it makes it so you can pick up most, if not all, classes incredibly easy. I'm not really into the meta of M+ talents but when i see you run Soul Rot i want you to cast Life Drain as it used to hit all targets affected. I don't know if it does any more but it used to :D

Seeing a new player on a non-meta spec is really interesting. Nice!

I started doing your challenge with an Elemental Shammy

There's incentive for higher ilvl players to do lower keys, particularly the 11-15 range to get the heroic tier upgrade crests so that's likely why you saw a 480 player in a +14.

in waycrest manor it is possible to dot both lord and lady waycrest as there is enough range to get to her.

how do you show the character preview in the beginning with the gear and stats on the side

use the suncaller trinket in melee range pls

wideNessie 🔛🔝

I saw in everbloom 2nd to last boss. the Suncaller trinket is SUPER mele so you need to stand in mele to hit it.

I actually began playing affliction because of those videos , i usually dont do much damage and am not really a high key pusher , i just want to get my 2.5k and get over with the patch , any commenters got suggestions waht would be fun?

are we going to see any SoD content soon?

whats the addon ( loks like a wheel) that u open when u heartstone etc?

Actually you can summon your pet and sacrifice it while you fight a boss, there a skill that cut down casting speed for summoning pet that has CD for 2 mins (forgot the name of the skill even though i play warlock my self :-x )

You can banish and fear the affix :)

I feel you.. the amount of times iv been kicked while forming the group cause I'm playing devastation instead of aug is very high... 😂 Non meta sucks indeed

hey so you did the weekly and got a normal item but you should have done the timewaliking raid as well then you would have gotten another HC lvl Timewalking Item just for some free gear

If you want to check out any high level aff play I recommend Arsyn! He streams on twitch and has a youtube channel

as an afflic enjoyer myself i must say that you are in the right path, ive never thought of afflic as bad, just gear dependant, once it gets ilvl and 2ndary stats it goes really well, my warlock is around the 2.400 mark atm and i switch between destro and afflic. At this level im easily top dps or above average anyway, keep going

Were you queing mythics on a fury warrior last week? I just realized I might have run into you when we had a 4 warrior one resto sham group...

For never forgetting to use the sacrifice, I use a WA for it

What addons are you using for your UI? Looks nice

a little weekly highlight if u ask me

Probably u already are done my friend, but i want to tell you. On AOE situations u dont wanna use haunt. Too much cast time for nothing. And u wanna seed spam after using soulrot, so make good use of your 4th pice and your right side cap stone talent. (Hope u play it). Oh, and the bele'lerosh trinekt is a melee one, so stand in melle when using it.

Invis pots on a key under like 24+ is hilarious

With you losing fofus i csn tell youre a Fellow dh main..

lol dont think i have ever heard someone say anti-clockwise

u can just fear it

Tbh I'm always down to take non meta spec but I've never played with a good aff lock they always do no damage and don't use util so I've stopped inviting haha

i get so many declines when applying :P

What is that character menu add on you have I want that lowkey

When you said that the vengeance dh had a relatively low ilvl (440) for a 16. I got a little smile on my face, I just 2 chested an 18 brh with my 443 ilvl mw monk 😊

Affliction is amazing in m+, people just hate on the spec. It easily outperforms demo in aoe but its not great in single target.

sheesh

warlocks can fear and banish incorporeal

Watched you a while ago just doing 0 to KSM. Thought it was cool but KSM isn’t IMO a challenge. So when I tuned back in and noticed that you’re doing a 0 to KSH with the worst class I was more like “hell yeah that’s content”. Keep going man and make the best of it!

As a 486 frost dk and with the legendary I legit can’t get into groups as a dps. Thanking tho I get into groups all day

Think you forgot one quest who give you hero item. Was sec TW quest for BT this NPC was in shat. I had for my warlock Hero 1h my lock now 480 2300 scor and i need do so much +16 to upgrade all my gear haha.

Yeah the last boss of Everbloom is an interesting one... :(

What Ui is that for dark bags/character sheet? I like it how its dark

Suncaller trinket is melee range

Does anyone know the name of the add on shown in the gameplay? The one where it shows who does the most or least amount of damage? Thanks

Does anyone know which texture he uses for healthbars on plater?

next time don't do the timewalking dungeons, go and kill the bosses in the current timewalking raid. you can get a quest that gives you a heroic track item from the raid and you kill more than 5 bosses so you can end the weekly quest as well, so you get two chests one for normal from the current raid and one hero track item from the ancient raid :) GL

what is the UI and addons here?

What is the thing that follows your mouse cursor

Well I finally made 3k on my hunter :)

What’s your party frames addon??? 😮
