Recommended Companion: Khem Val

Stat Priority: Willpower = Power/Force Power > Surge Rating (until 75%) = Critical Rating (until 30%) > Alacrity

Until level 19, you’ll have a very simple rotation:

Crushing Darkness -> Force Lightning  -> Lightning Strike

Use Lightning Strike to maintain the buff from Subversion as much as possible.

At 20, you’ll pick up Chain Lightning from your talent tree. The rotation once you receive that is:

Crushing Darkness ->Chain Lightning* -> Force Lightning  -> Lightning Strike

* Chain Lightning should ideally be used either exclusively on AoE packs, or when Lightning Storm procs making it instant.

And finally, you will receive Thundering Blast at 40. Your rotation/priority system should look like this:

Affliction  -> Thundering Blast -> Crushing Darkness -> Lightning Storm -> Force Lightning -> Lightning Strike


Now that you have Thundering Blast, be sure to maintain Affliction at all times for Thundering Blast crits.

Multiple target/AOE rotation:

Affliction -> Thundering Blast -> Chain Lightning -> Force Storm -> Overload
