1st Million - Warlocks

Warlocks! There's 34,001 of them in the first million. Here we go:
  1. 43/7/11 - 1224 (3.60%)
  2. 20/41/0 - 1072 (3.15%)
  3. 7/43/11 - 1024 (3.01%)
  4. 41/0/20 - 1010 (2.97%)
  5. 45/5/11 - 902 (2.65%)
  6. 40/0/21 - 826 (2.43%)
  7. 0/21/40 - 778 (2.29%)
  8. 43/0/18 - 633 (1.86%)
  9. 42/8/11 - 624 (1.84%)
  10. 42/19/0 - 594 (1.75%)

7 Affliction specs, 2 Demonology specs, and 1 lone Destruction spec. Ok, let me see if I can say this right: So far, of all the classes, the Warlock top spec has the lowest percentage of any other class. This can be a good or bad thing. Either the warlock talents are so good, characters can spec a number of different ways and still be very effective, or warlocks are nubs and don't understand their own class and are top notch at PvP by accident. I'll go with the latter just to piss off Inowar. I note with amusement that his spec is not in the top 10.

Anyhoo, here's the spec breakdown:

  • Affliction - 15384 (45.2%)
  • Demonology - 10887 (32.0%)
  • Destruction - 7501 (22.06%)
  • Unspec'd - 229 (0.6%)
  • Nospec'd - 4 (0.01%)

Update - Yeah, that second spec was a typo, it's 20/41/0.

One of your warlock specs is bogus, the second one, 20/41/10, is impossible as it would require 71 talent points. I assume you meant 20/31/10, since 31pts in Demo gives you Soul Link...

Also, all three warlock trees are equally outstanding, equally viable. If you see locks complaining about their class, it's not about their talent trees.

The numbers also don't add up. For example, take the second one, mentioned above, I click to look at the "number with build" and although it claims over 1000, I only count 65.

Yes, the second spec was a typo, it's 21/40/0.

As for the numbers not adding up, when you click through, it only shows you the top 10 builds for that spec. So out of the warlocks, 1072 of them are 21/40/0, but only 65 characters account for the top 10 builds within that spec.
