Right now Demonic Circle is missing in the alpha. We were supposed to get it baseline, anyone knows if it will be implemented in the next build?

Dude, this is blizz, they don’t really care about warlocks, the smallest class community from all vanila classes. By their corporate logic, it is not worth investing resources in our development on same level as other more popular classes.

Although I agree on the negligence part of blizz towards our class, it is still important for us to voice our concerns.
Not only that, but this is a fair question towards blizzard.
I think however that this thread would’ve been more useful if it was either placed in the Shadowlands class feedback section, or as a question/feedback through the in-game function.

That´s only for people in the alpha though.
Ah, my apologies.
I haven’t tried making any threads/posts there myself, so I didn’t know you could only do so if you were flagged for alpha.
It makes sense but does divide the suggestions and questions between those two places.
I’m in alpha if you want right up in a good way your concerns and I will report / suggest the. On forums and bug reports.
Out of curiosity except mythic Dungeons locks seem to always be fantastic in raid and arena pvp why do you feel neglected.
I’m legit curious I’m sti fuming ranged survival is no more.
Look not an the raw damage numbers…don’t be like that. Look at actual gameplay and desing. Take a good look at warlockd and demo personaly.
There are plenty of design issues that linger from the legion days.
You can’t control your demons exept your main demon. Ok in PvE it might be not big problem… but what if you really need to swap your targets? Like a three witches bosses in Waycrest mannor, if focusing iris was given to the witch that was not the target of your army of imps and tyrant, then you will be able to redirect only new demons and your main demon. And in PvP this problem is even worse, your demons could be outplayed just bt hidding behind the pillar, and with imps this is the problem but not as big one as with Tyrant.
And why warlocks are not great im M+? It is not our problem, it is blizzard’s problem. Because of their decision to design warlocks in such way, warlock has hard time of getting in the high M+ keys, and reason of this is lack of actual usefull team utility for M+. Long ramp up design of damage desling mechanics.
And about arenas, yes destro is kinda ok there, but “ok” is not “great”. Destro is good because of stupidly overpowered damage of chaosbolt and mechanics that support this spell. And teams mostly has to play around warlock damage dealing gameplay, via perdictable nature of warlock’s so called “mobility” and defence mechanisms. Destro is easy to shut down, and disable in combat.
And this is destro, what about affli or demo? Both specs are litteraly non existant in high level PvP, because affli just sucks and demo has too many issues with corruptions… demo can’t proc any corruptions via demons only four spells can proc your corruptions, it is shadow/demon bolt, implosion (extremely low proc chance), hand of gul’dan, bonus is bilescourge bombers if your pick up that talent. And all of these spells (exept implosion) has a long cast time, it is not a DoTs to proc you starts on CD. Demo has lowest corruption proc rate among all classes.
