Target ilvl 334 Updated: 2026-10-16
Affliction Warlock's best-in-slot page follows the Hellcaller hero talent at a 334 target item level, built slot by slot from the gear top Mythic raid parses on WarcraftLogs actually wear, ranked by usage percentage with Mythic+ held separately rather than simulated. Raid secondary stats are split evenly between Critical Strike and Haste at 35.3% each, with Mastery at 23.7% and Versatility the smallest share at 5.7%, the only spec here where two stats tie for first. The neck's Aqirbane Reliquary leads at 82.3% over the Strand of Warding Fangs' 6.2%, and the off-hand Aln'hara Lantern is similarly dominant at 84.3% against the Frostscale's Mystic Frond's 6.6%. Three slots show the Mythic+ top pick differing from the raid favourite, and several of the raid picks here are much closer contests than usual: the waist's Martyr's Waistwrap leads at only 26.5% over the Caustic Chain-Wrapped Sash's 24.9%, and the feet slot is tighter still, with Nek'zali's Spiritwalkers at 19.7% barely ahead of the Riftworn Stompers' 18.8%. The back slot flips the usual pattern, with the Fireproof Drape out of Mythic+ Ruby Life Pools leading at 20.1% over the raid-sourced Speakeasy Shroud's 18.8%. The ring slot favours the Band of the Amani Warlord at 30.9% over the Apex Brute's Claw Ring's 23.0%, both farmed from Altar of Fangs. With waist, feet, and back all decided by just a point or two, those are the slots worth checking against your own available drops rather than chasing the top pick specifically. Source mix leans raid overall, seven pieces from The Venomous Abyss against three Crafted, two from Altar of Fangs, and one each from Temple of Sethraliss, Murder Row, Den of Nalorakk, and Ruby Life Pools, so the wrist, Martyr's Bindings at 64.9%, and main-hand, Jan'thrazet, the Soul Fang at 43.8%, remain the clearest priorities. The trinket slot adds Gebbo's Bottomless Bag at 43.5% over the Vile Vial of Volatile Venom's 34.0%, data as of September 25, 2026.

Crafted gear can carry an embellishment, and a character can only wear 2 of those at once. This list has 4 crafted pieces — pick the two with the highest usage below.

Tier Set Conversion

5 slots Click to expandCollapse

Tier pieces do not drop. Bosses drop a filler for the same slot; you convert it and the item level stays. Conversion keeps the filler's secondary stats — so picking a filler is really picking stats.

Fit = the filler's two secondaries' share in this spec's top-player stat split ÷ the top two stats' share; below 65% the addon does not count the converted piece as graduated.

Ordered by how often top players wear the tier piece in that slot — that is a pick rate, not item power. A 4-piece bonus only needs four of the five slots, so the lowest one can be skipped.
