Might be worth updating the pre-bis to include the Arathi Basin honored belt? It's much much better than frostwolf, but also harder to get.

*Edit 10/13 - Cleaned up and reordered some items on Pre-Raid BiS, Added AB/WSG pvp gear to pre-raid BiS, removed Ranked PvP gear form pre-raid BiS and added Champion's Dreadweave Cowl and Champion's Dreadweave Spaulders to a special sidenote.

r8 has boots and pants are an upgrade if you're not r10 yet and don't have flarecore leggings, might be worth keeping that in a note as the flarecore are a very minimal upgrade.
(You lose a total of 18 damage from boots / pants, but gain a lot of stats and the set bonus for +23 damage).

Hey, @Botmaster5, i just wanted to say great guide it's extremely helpful and well done! I was curious if you have a PVP guide out there for warlocks aswell? I'd like to know a little more about that side of Vanilla when it comes to locks!

Love your work!

TBH - im probably just going to remove the PVP items completely. honestly, if you are hitting rank 8+, im sure youll know how to gauge gear well enough. that portion of the guide is really for the newest of the new blood

I dont :( Call me crazy, but i enjoy some pvp every now and again, but not enough to be any kind of authority to write a pvp guide. all i know about vanilla warlock pvp is what i learned watching old Drakedog videos on youtube

Myself personally am looking for a general guide, like the main idea for spec'ing and playing in PVP.. I know BC Siphon Life/ Soul Link was pretty OP. Basically various specs, the play style they require and basic dps "priority/ rotation" for them!
