Welcome to our Destruction Warlock DPS guide for World of Warcraft 4.3. Here, you will learn everything you need to know about playing a Destruction Warlock in a raid environment, though most of the content also applies to normal and heroic dungeons.

All three Warlock specialisations are currently performing more or less evenly, in single target situations. In low movement encounters, Destruction may be slightly behind Demonology, but this is hardly ever the case. In multiple target situations, especially in massive AoE situations, Destruction falls significantly behind Demonology.

Destruction Warlocks also bring various useful buffs and abilities to your raid group, making them a worthy addition.

To make it easy to bookmark the specific sections you are interested in, we have split the guide into 7 pages:

• Talents, Builds, and Glyphs: learn what the best talent trees are and how to customise them;
