BLUE CANNON Warlock leveling Build

Blue Cannon Warlock Leveling Build

This is the Blue Cannon Warlock leveling build. I already played it when I visited Blizzard a few months ago, and it was by far the strongest build you could run at low levels without needing any items. It uses both Dread Claws and Rampage for damage.

The build focuses heavily on the skill Rampage, with its special upgrade Abyssal Titan Rampage that you unlock at level 20. Level 20 comes really fast — the very first event in the game already pushes you to level 7 — so the build comes online extremely quickly and carries you smoothly through the early game.

How to Play (Levels 1–19)

• First, make sure to summon your Shard Demon, Summon Taz'Rauth. He also has an active ability, so activate it whenever it’s off cooldown to gain ShadowForm stacks. Those stacks increase both your damage and movement speed.
• Use your basic skill Hellion Sting not only for generating resources, but also as your main single-target damage. Once you get the Eviscerate upgrade, you’ll be able to eviscerate elite enemies for massive damage.
• Dread Claws is your AoE skill for clearing packs.
• Nether Step is your mobility skill and also works as a strong teleport. Use it whenever you need to reposition or when you want to gain extra ShadowForm stacks.

How to Play (Levels 20–40)

• Command Fallen is your resource generation skill. Unlike Hellion Sting, this one is not for damage.
• Use Dread Claws whenever you don’t have enough Dominance. Your main damage skill is Abyssal Titan Rampage. When you run out of Dominance, switch back to spamming Dread Claws
• Nether Step is your mobility skill and free teleport.
• Sigil of Subversion consumes a large chunk of your HP, but it grants a lot of ShadowForm stacks, giving you big boosts to movement speed and damage.
• Keep Sigil of Subversion up for movement speed and just focus on spamming Rampage as much as possible. Super simple and very strong.

How to Play (Levels 40+)

At level 40 the build gains our ultimate, Metamorphosis.

• Use Metamorphosis every time it comes off cooldown. Try to keep it up as often as possible — it massively boosts all your Abyss skills and lets you use them while transformed., spam Abyssal Titan Rampage as your main damage, use Command Fallen for resources, and fall back to Dread Claws when you run out of Dominance. Just add popping the ultimate on cooldown and you’re good.

The Blue Cannon Warlock leveling build is built entirely around spamming Rampage as your main source of damage. This is only good once you hit level 20 and unlock the Abyssal Titan Rampage upgrade, it becomes an absolute monster for clearing packs and bosses with almost no gear.

Before level 20 you have to use Hellion Sting to kill Elites.

The build works by stacking three key things:

• ShadowForm stacks (for big damage and movement speed boosts)
• Dominance (the resource that lets you keep spamming Rampage)
• Trails of Shadows (generated by Sigil of Subversion)

Your basic skill changes at level 20 to Command Fallen (with the Fallen Army Command Fallen upgrade). This is purely for resource generation, it’s not for damage. When you run low on Dominance, you fall back to Dread Claws for AoE until you can go back to spamming Abyssal Titan Rampage.

Nether Step is your mobility and emergency teleport. Use it freely to reposition or to gain even more Shadow Form stacks.

Level Progression

• Levels 1–19: Very simple. You use Hellion Sting as both resource gen and single-target damage, Dread Claws for AoE, and the Unfathomable Fragment soul shard as your class mechanic.
• Levels 20–39: The build really takes off. You switch to Command Fallen and add Sigil of Subversion. Rampage with Abyssal Titan Rampage becomes your main nuke.
• Level 40+: You unlock the ultimate Metamorphosis with the Terror Demon Metamorphosis upgrade. Pop it on cooldown, it adds extra ranks to all your Abyss skills and lets you use them while transformed, making your damage even smoother.

The whole thing is extremely forgiving and strong right from the start. You don’t need any specific items or gear, just follow the rotation. It scales beautifully all the way through the campaign and into early endgame.
