Deathbolt is an affliction warlock PvP talent.

Notes

  • Deathbolt uses the following periodic effects to factor its damage: [Agony], [Corruption], [Phantom Singularity], [Siphon Life], [Unstable Affliction], and [Vile Taint].
  • Deathbolt counts each instance of the caster's Unstable Affliction present on the target.
  • When specced into [Absolute Corruption], Deathbolt will count up to 16 seconds of Corruption's damage.
  • Deathbolt can critically strike, and benefits from damage bonuses such as [Contagion].
  • Deathbolt only factors in the maximum base duration of a warlock's dots, and ignores any additional duration added from [Summon Darkglare].
  • Deathbolt can be cast while no dots are present on a target, but it will only deal 1 point of damage.
