Demon Lord Warlock Guide 1.0.0.5

[Sir Goose]

Hey everyone this is my first build guide, I've been having a blast with the demonology set.

Most of the build information is in the links, please ask questions and ill do my best to help!

I use 3 skills books and change them in and out depending on how i'm feeling. I put codex's on the same button as hellpit so i can spam and have 100% uptime.

Codex of Sprint - 30% Movement speed. (105% minion damage with advancing army) I use this the most.

Codex of Rallying cry - 10% life. (lots of HP when fully buffed up)

Codex of War Cry - 10% damage. (lots of damage when staggered damage is high)

Why do you have some much +critical damage when the set bonus means Infernal Demon can't crit?

[Sir Goose]

Hey Sev, it's for the fire skull damage to snap shot a high Crit to make the total internal demon damage much higher.

Hey I really dig this build been having a blast farming and putting it together. Today we have been hit with the nerf hammer to Balgar's Binding. I am hoping you will put out a update once you test some things to help up survive better now that the nerf happened.

[Sir Goose]

Yeah I'll be working on an update and post it here/Reddit asap!

[Runemetal]

Ok sweet looking forward to the guide updates

I am absolutely besides myself. I've been farming balgar's for a couple days straight. finally saw two of them in the same run around mastery level 650. and then i read the text and realized it didn't reduce stagger damage. then i read the patch notes and cried lol. Fun build up till about dungeon level XI. I pretty much die immediately in anything after. Good job on the build, look forward to any others you put together <3.

I really liked the concept of this build and wanted to make it work, i was able to do mythic 15 with ease, but haven't tried to go above. Do take in mind that my gear is not fully upgraded far from it. Almost everything is empowered, but the enchants are only upgraded to the normal augment cap.

What i changed was basically i removed all sources of stagger, so this meant no more boots of stagger and no more balgars and all enchant stagger rolls changed to health. This also meant i had to change ultimate and the most important change was changing the rune on the necklace.

Changes:
- Rune on necklace changed to the star of the pure. This will make your shields (absorbtion barriers) way stronger and we need to rely on that shield
- balgars and staggering boots changed to summoners set for the 2 piece set bonus
-ultimate changed to lich form which gives life on hit and DR but doesn't give stagger
- Rolled DR on all the spots were it was possible.


Why dont we want stagger, because it bypasses your shield.

Hope this help you guys any further, it means you loose out on some damage but you still hit like a truck

I was able to do a T100 yesterday, so the renewed concept seems to work still far from fully upgraded and mastery 700
