What are Essences?
Essences are a system of power progression for the Heart of Azeroth introduced in patch 8.2. These legendary-like bonuses are unlocked through pre-determined activities including dungeons, raids, open-world activities, PvP, reputations, and achievements, and come in four ranks: Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary. The second and third ranks add to or improve the base effect, while the last unlocks a flashy visual. Each Essence has a unique Major and Minor power, which can be socketed into the Heart of Azeroth upon completing a short introductory questline. For more information on available Essences and the drop locations for each rank, see our
Heart of Azeroth Essences Overview Guide
.
Essences may be changed in any rested area, or by using any
静心书卷
type item, but the same Essence cannot be used in multiple sockets, resulting in a total of 1 Major and 4 Minor powers active at any one time. You can pre-plan and preview your Essence setup in our
Essence Calculator
.

Account-Wide Essences for Alts
While Essences have been a chore to unlock on characters until Ny'alotha, Blizzard has introduced a new system in Patch 8.3 to speed up the process of obtaining Essences for subsequent characters: Echoes of Ny'alotha! Most current activities completed, like Mythic+, PvP, or Emissaries will reward a given number of Echoes, which can be traded at MOTHER at the Chamber of Heart for a Rank 3 Essence that you have already unlocked in another toon.

Demonology Warlock Essence Simulations
We have comparative simulations for each of the different Major and Minor essence powers, courtesy of SimulationCraft, Bloodmallet, and other class tools. Don't forget that this is simply an overview; you can create your own comparisons as well as combinations of different essences you have unlocked on your character using
Raidbots
Top Gear function. If you are not already familiar with Raidbots and how to use it, take a look at our
How To Guide
.
Again, this is simply an overview. Certain Essences, such as Worldvein minor, may be worse in practice on encounters with heavy movement or when you are the only player in your group using it. Reference the Essence notes and recommendations below to see how your spec can best take advantage of each individual power.

Best Demonology Warlock Major Essences
While only one Major power can be used at a time, whichever Essence is socketed into the center node of the Heart of Azeroth will also activate its Minor Power, so both effects should be taken into consideration when determining which to use. Below is a short ranking of notable Top Tier, Mid Tier, and Bottom or strictly Situational Tier Major Essences you should consider using when playing a Demonology Warlock. Anything not listed is currently considered undesirable or has no noteworthy interaction.
Vision of Perfection -
完美愿景
Source: Operation Mechagon (click for details!)
Rank 1: Defeat King Mechagon.
Rank 2:
图纸:完美同步的差速齿轮
from King Mechagon and craft
完美同步的差速齿轮
.
Rank 3: Combine 4
序列链轮
, dropped by King Mechagon.
Rank 4: Obtain
心之锁定
.
While this essence does not work in conjunction with
恶魔吞噬
when it procs it is still easily one of the best Major essences you can obtain. When procced it summons a secondary
召唤恶魔暴君
and with that works together with some Azerite traits, such as
最高指挥官
and
怨毒祷告
.
When this
召唤恶魔暴君
is summoned it grants you 35% of the baseline Intellect from each
最高指挥官
trait and grants you 3 soul shards from
怨毒祷告
. The two procs of
最高指挥官
stack (one from your normally summoned
召唤恶魔暴君
and the one from Vision of Perfection). If you get multiple procs of Vision of Perfection in a row you can only have one version of the
最高指挥官
buff; Intellect buff doesn't stack just resets the duration.
Worldvein Resonance -
世界血脉共鸣
Source: Island Expeditions (click for details!)
Rank 1: Complete the weekly quest
联盟的艾泽里特
/
部落的艾泽里特
.
Rank 2: Combine
泽姆兰的失落藏宝图碎片
from island expeditions.
Rank 3: Complete the mission chain starting with "A Disturbing Rumor".
Rank 4: Complete a specific
神秘的藏宝图
mission.
The combination of this cooldown with your Tyrant is very strong and should favor a less RNG focused build.
Condensed Life Force -
生命之凝力
Source: Azshara's Eternal Palace (click for details!)
Rank 1: Combine 9
沧海圣匣
.
Rank 2: Combine 18
沧海圣匣
.
Rank 3: Combine 27
沧海圣匣
.
Rank 4: Defeat Queen Azshara on Mythic difficulty.
The main reason this essence should be considered top tier is because of the longer duration Haste buff you receive. On average you should be looking at 20s of an additional 10% Haste, every 3 minutes on command.
Generally you would be using this effect approximately 10s before using
召唤恶魔暴君
as to allow the Haste buff to stack up then summon
召唤恶魔暴君
as to take full advantage of the buff.
This essence will line up with every other
召唤恶魔暴君
you summon.
Breath of the Dying -
濒死之息
While not completely top tier at the start this Essence has the ability to push into a usable Major Essence at rank 3 but is (as of launch of 8.3) suspected to be vastly overtuned. The placement of this Essence is mostly speculation currently.
Blood of the Enemy -
仇敌之血
Source: PvP - Honor (click for details!)
Rank 1:
席卷战场
.
Rank 2:
战场斗士
, purchase from War Coordinator NPC.
Rank 3:
战场战术家
, purchase from War Coordinator NPC.
Rank 4:
战场大师
, purchase from War Coordinator NPC.
While Critical Strike is not the most lucrative stat for Demonology it can be used to create some interesting high damaging
召唤恶魔暴君
s especially given that it will line up with every
召唤恶魔暴君
.
It is not overwhelmingly powerful at first glance but could definitely see it's creep up the power rankings during farm.
Purification Protocol -
净化协议
Source: Rustbolt Resistance Reputation (click for details!)
Rank 1: Honored, purchase for 4
S.P.A.R.E.零件箱
and 2
电流振荡器
.
Rank 2: Revered, purchase for 20
S.P.A.R.E.零件箱
and 10
电流振荡器
.
Rank 3: Exalted, purchase for 40
S.P.A.R.E.零件箱
and 10
电流振荡器
.
Rank 4: Rustbolt Resistance Paragon cache.
A high damaging low cooldown ability that has the potential to increase your damage if used properly on encounters with adds will definitely have potential. Mostly you will be trying to use this in tandem with
召唤恶魔暴君
.
The Crucible of Flame -
烈焰熔炉
Source: Heart of Azeroth level (click for details!)
Rank 1:
知子莫若母
.
Rank 2: Neck level 54 and
黑暗中的梦境
.
Rank 3: Neck level 60 and
调查暮光高地
.
Rank 4: Neck level 70 and
蓝龙军团之雷
.
This essence is very good overall but the majority of the value comes from the essence as a whole, not just within one of the two powers. Since the other two top tier essences are time gated/not available you should look to get this essence as your first major/minor essence.
Formless Void -
无形虚空
There is not much use for us to clone other DPS Major's that will impact our DPS significantly. Using this as the major essence is simply not viable.
Spark of Inspiration -
灵感火花
A major utility essence that does not hold too much value for your own DPS and should only be considered when or if you are trying to cheese a DPS rank for someone else.
Essence of the Focusing Iris -
聚焦之虹的精华
Source: Mythic+ (click for details!)
Rank 1: Complete a +4 Mythic dungeon in season 3.
Rank 2: Complete a +7 Mythic dungeon in season 3.
Rank 3: Combine 15
聚焦生命心能
from the weekly cache.
Rank 4: Complete
“争霸艾泽拉斯”钥石大师:第三赛季
.
The Major power of this item is just a large cone AoE on a decently short cooldown. While it provides no synergy with the spec on it's own, the Minor power should be considered if this is one of your only essence. The majority of the power of this essence for Demonology comes from the Minor power making it very good in certain situations.
Memory of Lucid Dreams -
清醒梦境之忆
Source: Nazjatar Bodyguards (click for details!)
Rank 1: Complete
短暂的休息
/
深入纳沙塔尔
.
Rank 2: Complete
患难之交
/
潦而不倒
.
Rank 3: Obtain
海战集训
/
海战集训
.
Rank 4: Obtain
灭世洪流
/
灭世洪流
.
This essence is mostly in this position because it's not widely tested and could have some serious potential but for now remains a bit of a mystery without a proper way to test the ability in large batches.
Conflict and Strife -
冲突与斗争
Source: PvP - Conquest (click for details!)
Rank 1: Earn 500 Conquest and claim a weekly PvP War Chest.
Rank 2: Reach 1,000 Rating in Rated PvP and claim your next weekly PvP War Chest.
Rank 3: Collect
燎原战场之狂
from your weekly PvP War Chest.
Rank 4: Reach Elite rank and claim your next weekly PvP War Chest.
This essence should basically never be used in a PvE situation. It offers nothing.
Ripple in Space -
空间涟漪
Source: World PvP (click for details!)
Rank 1: Complete
水淹部落
/
水淹联盟
.
Rank 2: Obtain
两线对决
.
Rank 3: Collect
战斗召唤勋章
from weekly Call to Arms quests.
Rank 4: Obtain
刺客的补给
.
Given Demonology's general tankiness and the multiple ways we have to move around an encounter in a similar fashion as this essence allows it offers very little to no value.
The Unbound Force -
不羁之力
Source: Nazjatar Reputation (click for details!)
Rank 1: Honored, purchase for 10
棱彩法力珍珠
.
Rank 2: Revered, purchase for 25
棱彩法力珍珠
.
Rank 3: Exalted, purchase for 50
棱彩法力珍珠
.
Rank 4: Nazjatar reputation Paragon cache.
This item has no synergy with the spec but is just a decent high damaging ability with a short cooldown that could be used in very niche burst damage situations.
Best Demonology Warlock Minor Essences
Two additional Minor Essence slots can be unlocked over time, providing additional benefit. Some of these rankings will reflect the same best "top tier" essences for both Major and Minor; you should always consider taking the Major bonus over the Minor if faced with this choice unless it is being provided by the Major essence already.
Vision of Perfection -
完美愿景
One of the most well rounded minor essences; reducing the cooldown of
召唤恶魔暴君
will never be a bad thing.
Memory of Lucid Dreams -
清醒梦境之忆
The power of this essence really relies on RNG but it has the potential to be very strong but completely reliant on random chance. There is a lot of opportunity for this essence to move around the tiers depending on your spec.
Essence of the Focusing Iris -
聚焦之虹的精华
Additional Haste from focusing on Single Target adds an additional incentive to maintain your target but can be easily made useless in Mythic+ or encounters with multiple add spawns that need to be focused.
Breath of the Dying -
濒死之息
This essence is top tier over all other minor essences but
only
when it is Rank 3. When still Ranks 1 or 2 it is much more mid tier.
Condensed Life Force -
生命之凝力
Offering some damage and the additional increased damage on the target with a relatively high proc rate should offer good value especially if combined with Vision of Perfection.
Worldvein Resonance -
世界血脉共鸣
Lends itself to more passive intellect which when combined with the effect of the same major essence can become quite powerful.
Purification Protocol -
净化协议
Given the number of add related encounters in the new raid this minor power should provide ample opportunity to be useful given the proc rate. It offers no synergy for the spec but good passive damage can't be complained about.
Blood of the Enemy -
仇敌之血
A very solid minor power that synergizes very well with how Demonology plays with additional haste along with critical strike chance offers good value in a minor power slot.
The Crucible of Flame -
烈焰熔炉
One of, if not the, strongest minor powers overall. The proc contributes to just over 50% of the value for this essence and should be highly sought after for single target encounters.
Spark of Inspiration -
灵感火花
If you are using Condensed Life Force as your major this essence may have some merit given the high procs per minute to reduce the cooldown, our other major essences do not have a cooldown associated with it rendering the minor bonus here not relevant.
Conflict and Strife -
冲突与斗争
This essence should basically never be used in a PvE situation. It offers nothing.
Ripple in Space -
空间涟漪
This essence offers very little in the way of good power. Should be avoided if at all possible.
Formless Void -
无形虚空
Very weak bonus given we are not primarily focused that heavily towards main stat and favour secondaries.
The Unbound Force -
不羁之力
Unfortunately the buff does not last long enough for it to be impactful. Should not be considered currently.
Best overall Essence combinations for Demonology Warlock
Overall these are the essence that should be considered for Demonology:
Vision of Perfection -
完美愿景
- major/minor power
Condensed Life Force -
生命之凝力
- major/minor power
Memory of Lucid Dreams -
清醒梦境之忆
- minor power
Essence of the Focusing Iris -
聚焦之虹的精华
- minor power, single target only
Blood of the Enemy -
仇敌之血
- minor power
Breath of the Dying -
濒死之息
- minor power
