Warlock Spells & Abilities
Explore the Warlock spellbook: new abilities, changed mechanics and level-by-level ranks compared with Classic.
Beta data, not live release values. The rank catalogue is based on source snapshot 1.60.1.69893 with official build 1.60.1.70009 deltas annotated where verified, and is not a complete list of all talent, racial, triggered or NPC spells. “Removed” means absent from the referenced trainer spellbook, not necessarily removed from the game. Verify current rank values against Wowhead Forever. Last source build is displayed rather than claiming a live automatic sync.
Verified Wowhead Forever examples
These selected player-cast spells have individually checked Wowhead IDs. Other catalogue entries use the local beta reference until a matching ID is verified.
Individual spell IDs for this class are still being verified. The beta spellbook below remains available.
