Demonic Sacrifice Demonic Sacrifice

Warlock · Demonology · Row 3 of 7 · Single rank
Changed from Classic Active ability

Demonic Sacrifice sits in row 3 of the Warlock Demonology tree. A talent tree is simply the grid of talents for one class role. It costs just one point. So the only question is whether opening its row fits your build.

Changed from Classic. This talent now works differently than in Classic, so read the ranks below before you spend any points.

What Demonic Sacrifice does at each rank

A rank is one level of a talent. Every rank makes the effect a bit stronger. The list below uses the exact wording from the beta client, word for word.

  1. Rank 1: When activated, sacrifices your summoned Demon to enhance the opposing aspect of your power, granting you an effect that lasts 2 hrs. The effect is canceled if any Demon is summoned. Imp: Increases your Shadow damage by 15%. Voidwalker: Restores 2% of your total Mana every 4 sec. Succubus/Incubus: Increases your Fire damage by 15%. Felhunter: Restores 3% of your total Health every 4 sec.

How to reach Demonic Sacrifice

Row 3 opens after you spend 10 points in the earlier Demonology rows. Level 20 is the earliest you can pick up Demonic Sacrifice.

Is Demonic Sacrifice worth the points?

One point gives you the full effect. The real cost is opening row 3. That is 10 points in the rows above, so take it when the talent or the picks it unlocks suits your build.

What it unlocks

Once Demonic Sacrifice is maxed, it opens this talent deeper in the tree: Soul Link.
