  • You have a Demonic Circle active, allowing you to cast Demonic Circle: Teleport to teleport to its location.
  • Duration: 15 minutes

Demonic Circle is a warlock class talent. It is automatically learned by all warlocks. It also grants the ability Spell shadow demoniccircleteleport [Demonic Circle: Teleport].

Notes[]

  • One significant use for this spell is in boss fights where the boss casts a nova spell such as Morchok's Black Blood of the Earth. Demonic Circle can effectively be used to move out of range or LoS of the nova up to the last second, taking into account GCD, and allowing warlocks to continue DPS'ing at a point when all other party members are running away. This ability is also useful for use on "Hourglass Duty" on Murozond.
  • A second powerful use for this ability is in PvP, particularly arenas as the ability removes all snare affects and will move the warlock through walls or obstructions to the demonic circle.

Trivia[]

Demonic Circle is one of Gul'dan's activatable Talents in Heroes of the Storm. As in World of Warcraft, it consists of two spells, one for placing the Circle, the other for teleporting to it.
