Blizzard's Midnight API restricts addon access to your personal buffs and cooldowns during M+ and raid — the exact content where aura tracking matters most. The addons listed here work within these restrictions and cover what WeakAuras used to handle.

← Back to Warlock Patch 12.0.7

Demonology Warlock · Mythic+

Curated for Mythic+ — Implosion detonating Wild Imps stacked over grouped packs, Demonic Tyrant buffing every active demon during the burst window, Doom maintaining single-target Shard generation on priority mobs, and Spell Lock interrupt coverage without breaking the imp summoning cycle. Reviewed 28 Jun 2026.

Talent Builds

Using this build

Diabolist M+

Diabolist

Recommended for Mythic+ — Diabolist with Umbral Blaze for consistent AoE damage on grouped packs. Pit Lord provides reliable burst during Tyrant windows and scales better than Soul Harvester in multi-target pulls.

Builds

Soul Harvester M+

Soul Harvester

Alternative M+ option — Soul Harvester with multi-target Implosion for pack-clearing. Stronger in corridors where imps cluster naturally around grouped mobs; switch to Diabolist for high-key consistent output.

Addons

Why no WeakAuras? Midnight's API blocks WeakAuras from reading your buffs and cooldowns. The addons here cover what it used to handle.

Boss timers

Works in Midnight Updated 20 May 2026

For Demonology Warlock, precise timer accuracy lets you complete a Hand of Gul'dan cast knowing exactly how long before a forced movement arrives, and time Demonic Tyrant to a movement-safe window rather than burning it into an upcoming reposition that will kill active imps. LittleWigs is required for dungeon boss modules — install both.

Advanced Ground effect alerts

95.9M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 1 May 2026

For Demonology Warlock, the risk is losing active Wild Imps to a ground effect during Demonic Tyrant's buff window — imps that die mid-Tyrant significantly reduce your burst output. The audio alarm fires early enough to step out before imps are lost. Install knowing it's significantly more limited than pre-Midnight — it covers specific tracked boss mechanics only, not general ground effects.

DPS meter

Works in Midnight Updated 1 May 2026

Per-spell and per-pet damage breakdown. If Wild Imp contribution is low, you're not maintaining Hand of Gul'dan or letting Tyrant expire with few imps active — also check Demonic Tyrant's burst share and Demonbolt for consistent Demonic Core usage without overcapping.

Doom timers

9.5M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 20 Apr 2026

Cast bars and debuff icons on enemy nameplates — shows which enemies have your active DoT effects and when they fall off, without tab-targeting. For Demonology Warlock, keeping corruption effects ticking on multiple targets maintains Soul Shard generation between Hand of Gul'dan casts, and cast bars on enemy nameplates surface the interrupt targets for Spell Lock before a dangerous cast lands.

TargetedSpells

Targeted casts

Works in Midnight Updated 2 May 2026

TargetedSpells fires a visible and audio alert when an enemy starts casting a dangerous ability at you specifically. For Demonology Warlock, Unending Resolve halves incoming damage on a 3-minute cooldown — the alert fires during the cast so you can spend it on a genuinely dangerous targeted ability rather than reacting too late or burning it on something ignorable.

Cooldowns & tracking 2

OmniCD

Demonic Tyrant alignment

33.4M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 27 Feb 2026

Tracks group cooldowns from the combat log — for Demonology Warlock, helps align Demonic Tyrant with Bloodlust and external DPS buffs so the burst window lands with the group rather than isolated. Also tracks kick cooldowns so your Spell Lock covers interrupt gaps rather than doubling up.

BetterCooldownManager

Personal cooldowns

938.2K downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 15 Mar 2026

Configurable timers for your major cooldowns on screen. For Demonology Warlock, shows when Demonic Tyrant, Power Siphon, and Unending Resolve return — the exact Tyrant timer prevents spending it into a low-imp window and lets you align the next burst with a full army.

TrufiGCD

Advanced GCD timeline

Works in Midnight Updated 1 Mar 2026

Scrolling timeline of your recent cast history with GCD gaps visible. For Demonology Warlock, reveals Soul Shard overcapping to 5 without casting Hand of Gul'dan and Demonic Core overcap at 4 charges without Demonbolt — both silent resource losses invisible in spell breakdowns.

BetterBlizzFrames

Unit frames

4.8M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 1 May 2026

BetterBlizzFrames enhances the default Blizzard unit frames rather than replacing them. For Demonology Warlock, the value is keeping Soul Shard count and Demonic Core stacks visible at a consistent position without committing to a full UI replacement.

Dominos

Action bars

22.2M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 10 May 2026

Dominos gives you full control over action bar layout. For Demonology Warlock, a dedicated cooldown bar keeps Demonic Tyrant, Summon Felguard, and Power Siphon at consistent visible positions near the centre of the screen so your main bar stays focused on Hand of Gul'dan and Demonbolt without cooldown icons pushing the layout outward.

Tukui.org addon

Works in Midnight Updated 15 May 2026

Most of what ElvUI covers for Demonology Warlock is better handled by BetterBlizzFrames (frames), Dominos (action bars), and Platynator (nameplates). Only install if you want a fully unified UI aesthetic and are prepared for the configuration overhead.

Mythic Dungeon Tools

Dungeon maps

93.8M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 20 May 2026

MDT shows the full dungeon map with enemy positions, patrol routes, and force percentages. For Demonology Warlock, the planning value is identifying packs dense enough to justify Implosion — sending all active Wild Imps to explode on a grouped cluster is only efficient when mobs are tight enough to hit multiple targets. Also useful for pre-planning Demonic Gateway placement to cover the dungeon's key movement sections and flagging caster-heavy packs for Spell Lock pre-assignment.

Raider.IO

Player scores

Works in Midnight Updated 25 May 2026

Adds every player's Mythic+ score and raid progression to their tooltip. As Demonology Warlock, your group value includes Soulstone, Demonic Gateway, and Healthstones on top of AoE burst — checking group scores before a pull tells you how much the utility side of your kit needs to compensate, and whether your Tyrant windows can land on schedule or need to adapt around a lower-experience group.

Astral Keys

Keystone tracking

17.5M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 20 Mar 2026

Astral Keys shows your guildmates' and friends' current keystones and levels in a tooltip. As Demonology Warlock, you want keys with dense, grouped packs — your Implosion burst and Demonic Tyrant value multiply in target-rich environments, and knowing the dungeon ahead of time helps you identify which pulls play to that strength rather than adapting mid-key.
