World-of-warcraft – What does the Grimoire of Sacrifice talent actually do

world of warcraft

I just respecced my warlock to Affliction and picked up Grimoire of Sacrifice as one of my talents.

The description says:

You sacrifice your demon to gain one of its abilities, increase the power of many of your single target spells by 50% and regenerate 2% of maximum health every 5 sec.

and I can't seem to figure out the demon ability part. I assume it varies per demon, but which ability do you inherit from which demon? Should I just drag one of the demons' abilities to my action bars?

How do I make this thing go?

The extra ability is controlled by the Command Demon spell. Normally, if you don't have a demon summoned, Command Demon is disabled. When you have a demon summoned, Command Demon becomes activatable and is replaced with a specific ability that relates to that demon:

  • Felguard: Felstorm
  • Felhunter: Spell Lock
  • Imp: Cauterize Master
  • Succubus: Whiplash
  • Voidwalker: Disarm

When you activate Grimoire of Sacrifice, your demon goes away, but instead of Command Demon going back to being disabled, it gets replaced with a different ability, depending on which demon you sacrificed:
