Common Quest Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake 1: Skipping Early Demon Quests

Many new Warlocks delay getting their Voidwalker or Succubus:

Why This Hurts:

  • Significantly slower leveling speed
  • More deaths and downtime
  • Missing out on key class mechanics
  • Having to go back at higher levels wastes time

Solution: Complete demon quests as soon as they become available.

Mistake 2: Not Preparing for Dreadsteed

The Dreadsteed quest requires significant preparation:

Common Errors:

  • Not saving enough gold
  • Waiting until level 60 to start collecting materials
  • Not finding a reliable group for dungeons
  • Buying materials at peak prices

Solution: Start collecting materials at level 50 and save gold specifically for this quest.

Mistake 3: Ignoring Soul Shard Management

Running out of soul shards during quests can be frustrating:

Issues:

  • Cannot summon demons when needed
  • Cannot create healthstones for difficult fights
  • Wastes time farming shards mid-quest

Solution: Always farm extra soul shards before starting quest chains.

Mistake 4: Wrong Spec for Quest Combat

Some quests are significantly easier with specific talent builds:

Problem Specs:

  • Pure Destruction for solo elite quests (lacks survivability)
  • Heavy Demonology without damage talents (takes too long)

Better Approach:

  • Use Affliction or hybrid builds for difficult solo quests
  • Consider respeccing for major quest chains if necessary
  • Bring appropriate demons for each quest type

FAQ Section

When should I complete my Voidwalker quest?

Complete your Voidwalker quest immediately at level 10. The Voidwalker makes leveling significantly easier by tanking enemies while you deal damage from range. Delaying this quest will slow down your leveling progress considerably. The quest is relatively quick and should be your top priority at level 10.

How much gold do I need for the Dreadsteed mount quest?

Budget approximately 150-200 gold for the Dreadsteed quest if you purchase all materials from the Auction House. However, you can significantly reduce this cost by farming materials yourself. The main expenses are Arcanite Bars (most expensive), Black Dragonscales, and various other crafting materials. This is still much cheaper than the regular epic mount which costs 900 gold.

Can I solo the Succubus quest at level 20?

The Succubus quest can be challenging to solo at level 20 since you must defeat a level 20 elite demon. It’s recommended to either bring a friend, wait until level 22-23, or use consumables and have full soul shards ready. Make sure your Voidwalker can tank while you DPS from range. Having health potions and healthstones prepared is essential.

Is the Infernal demon worth getting?

The Infernal is situational and primarily useful for AoE farming in specific locations. It’s not commonly used in raids or dungeons compared to your other demons. However, completing the quest is still worthwhile for the experience and to have access to all your demons. The Infernal can be effective for farming in certain zones like Eastern Plaguelands or Silithus.

What's the best demon for each Warlock quest?

For solo questing, use the Voidwalker as your tank for difficult elite enemies. The Succubus provides the highest DPS for faster quest completion when fighting non-elite mobs. For the Dreadsteed dungeon runs, use your Imp for the blood pact buff in groups. The Felhunter is excellent when fighting caster enemies during quest chains. Always adapt your demon choice to the specific encounter.

Do I need to complete all Warlock quests?

The essential quests are Voidwalker, Succubus, Felhunter, and Dreadsteed. These provide critical demons and cost-effective mounts that significantly impact your gameplay. The Infernal quest is optional but recommended for completeness. Epic equipment quests at level 60 are also optional since the gear is quickly replaced in raids, but they’re good for fresh 60s.
