Definitive Warlock Guide -Dragons of Nightmare(1.8)

[Botmaster5]

How is Mara treating you for cash? I'm a big fan of DM:e as it provides me with a lot of overpriced dreamfoil, which means a lot of cash on the alliance side, but what kind of gold per hour does Mara give you once you get up to speed? Worth swapping?

I can usually net 30-45g/hr depending on drops. you are guaranteed a weapon drop off gobo, its princess and rotgrip that have the biggest impact on your g/hr

here's a vid i made, detailing how to farm mara as sm/ruin

its just as easi as DS/Ruin with 5/5 imp corr, its just safer as SM/Ruin

This is a great guide - I used to read tons of these guides and discussions when vanilla was released initially, and I feel pretty well prepared now - although I'm still just fooling around and having a laugh with my void

The reason I'm asking is because I can easily do 35g / hr in DM:e while also getting items such as dreamfoil / mana runes / felcloth which I save, if I were to sell these I'd probably get atleast 40g / hr.

Comparing it to mara I'm doing it basically the same as you, except I nuke the bosses harder as my voidwalker manages to hold aggro quite a while in DS / Ruin. I still can't beat 35g / hr no matter how I do it, because we as warlocks have to spend so much time waiting on adds standing in the right spots etc.

Have you tried DM:e any? It should easily beat Mara.

When Solo'ing as DS/Ruin do you still use VW or sac Succubus? I just dinged 60 and I need cash :p

I wanna do PvE only, so I guess you mean this spec from the 1st page?

I still have a long way to go to lvl 60 but I want to have the best spec for then . Thanks!

I prefer this build, but it comes down to personal preference.

Alright I will try it out once I'm 60, thanks

In mara (spec princess) you run voidwalker and once he's about to die (~50%) you sacrifice him to gain the passive health regen, as it helps you more than the shield does.

On the crocodile you can keep him alive if you're really well geared, but I'd recommend saccing him if you're new.

I still recommend DM:e over mara for anyone who's new, atleast until you've built up quite a bank of dreamfoils, as you'll need these and they'll only keep rising in prices.

I'm having a hard time trying to farm DM:E because of the aoe packs. Most of my gear is + shadow dmg so hellfire isn't that good and multidot is just really slow. Also VW doesn't excel at keeping packs of mobs on him.

What you want is gear that increases your physical effective health, not +fire gear, since hellfire scales really poorly.

Focus on getting health and armor, basically anything that is good in PvP is good in DM:e.
Multidotting is not worth it.

Also one more question concerning Maraudon, after killing Rotgrip, how do you get out and back in again? This may sound stupid, but I really don't know the instance that well :s

You use your tp out macro! (This one:)
/script ResetInstances()
/camp

That makes you log out and when you log back in you're at the purple entrance, at which point you simply run in again!
