What are Essences?
Essences are a system of power progression for the Heart of Azeroth introduced in patch 8.2. These legendary-like bonuses are unlocked through pre-determined activities including dungeons, raids, open-world activities, PvP, reputations, and achievements, and come in four ranks: Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary. The second and third ranks add to or improve the base effect, while the last unlocks a flashy visual. Each Essence has a unique Major and Minor power, which can be socketed into the Heart of Azeroth upon completing a short introductory questline. For more information on available Essences and the drop locations for each rank, see our
Heart of Azeroth Essences Overview Guide
.
Essences may be changed in any rested area, or by using any
静心书卷
type item, but the same Essence cannot be used in multiple sockets, resulting in a total of 1 Major and 4 Minor powers active at any one time. You can pre-plan and preview your Essence setup in our
Essence Calculator
.

Account-Wide Essences for Alts
While Essences have been a chore to unlock on characters until Ny'alotha, Blizzard has introduced a new system in Patch 8.3 to speed up the process of obtaining Essences for subsequent characters: Echoes of Ny'alotha! Most current activities completed, like Mythic+, PvP, or Emissaries will reward a given number of Echoes, which can be traded at MOTHER at the Chamber of Heart for a Rank 3 Essence that you have already unlocked in another toon.

Destruction Warlock Essences Suggestions per Content Type
These are simple guidelines, based on activity and assumes you have all available essences unlocked at rank 3. Keep in mind that there will be many variations for things such as raiding and Mythic+, so reference those guide pages for more specific information.

Destruction Warlock Essence Simulations
We have comparative simulations for each of the different Major and Minor essence powers, courtesy of SimulationCraft, Bloodmallet, and other class tools. Don't forget that this is simply an overview; you can create your own comparisons as well as combinations of different essences you have unlocked on your character using
Raidbots
Top Gear function. If you are not already familiar with Raidbots and how to use it, take a look at our
How To Guide
.
Again, this is simply an overview. Certain Essences, such as Worldvein minor, may be worse in practice on encounters with heavy movement or when you are the only player in your group using it. Reference the Essence notes and recommendations below to see how your spec can best take advantage of each individual power.
Destruction Warlock Major Essences
While only one Major power can be used at a time, whichever Essence is socketed into the center node of the Heart of Azeroth will also activate its Minor Power, so both effects should be taken into consideration when determining which to use.
Memory of Lucid Dreams -

Rank 4: Obtain

灭世洪流
.
Very strong option for single target, but also offers insane cleave if used during
浩劫
.
This essence is just insanely strong for the burst Destruction Warlocks offer. Using this alongside
召唤地狱火
while playing
混乱之雨
means you will be able to get many more soul shards and therefore proc more extra infernals.
The minor power from this essence is also very strong as we benefit strongly from haste.
Vision of Perfection -
完美愿景
Source: Operation Mechagon (click for details!)
Rank 1: Defeat King Mechagon.
Rank 2:
图纸:完美同步的差速齿轮
from King Mechagon and craft
完美同步的差速齿轮
.
Rank 3: Combine 4
序列链轮
, dropped by King Mechagon.
Rank 4: Obtain
心之锁定
.
All-round useful, but mainly for cleave and aoe.
Overall a nice passive damage boost. We gain extra Soul Shards during this proc and the Infernal itself does a lot of damage as well.
The minor power from this essence is generally not very good, but situationally can be very strong. When combining the new
粉碎混沌
that reduces the cooldown of your
召唤地狱火
by 15 seconds with this, your
召唤地狱火
ends up being a 2m 24s cooldown. This could potentially mean getting a full extra set of cooldowns off on a fight which can be very strong as a lot of our damage lies during our
召唤地狱火
uptime.
Essence of the Focusing Iris -
聚焦之虹的精华
Source: Mythic+ (click for details!)
Rank 1: Complete a +4 Mythic dungeon in season 3.
Rank 2: Complete a +7 Mythic dungeon in season 3.
Rank 3: Combine 15
聚焦生命心能
from the weekly cache.
Rank 4: Complete
“争霸艾泽拉斯”钥石大师:第三赛季
.
Good for dungeons or heavy add cleave.
This is a very interesting essence that offers a high aoe burst on a 1.5 min cd. This is also castable while moving which means you won't be forced to interrupt the cast if you have to move from something.
The minor power from this essence also has the potential to be good as haste is one of our best stats. Keep in mind when playing this you do not want to switch target very often if it can be avoided. Casting
浩劫
on another target than your main target does not remove these stacks.
Breath of the Dying -
濒死之息
Very strong for execute on single target.
The major power from this essence is only really strong sub 20% meaning it can come into play on fights where this is the most crucial part of the fight, but apart from that there are stronger alternatives.
The minor power from this essence is incredibly strong, it procs a lot and also grants you 10 corruption resistance.
The Crucible of Flame -
烈焰熔炉
Source: Heart of Azeroth level (click for details!)
Rank 1:
知子莫若母
.
Rank 2: Neck level 54 and
黑暗中的梦境
.
Rank 3: Neck level 60 and
调查暮光高地
.
Rank 4: Neck level 70 and
蓝龙军团之雷
.
Good for single target.
This essence can be especially valuable in a progression scenario where you may want to store up damage to deal a large amount of damage to a priority target. Being able to stack this up to 2 stacks and then bursting it into another target can be very useful for your raid. This can also be used as a heal on yourself or a dying raid member, making this a very strong option for progression raiding.
The minor power is a random dot that has a chance to proc when you deal damage to a target. It deals decent damage and doesn't require you to play around it.
Condensed Life-Force -
生命之凝力
Source: Azshara's Eternal Palace (click for details!)
Rank 1: Combine 9
沧海圣匣
.
Rank 2: Combine 18
沧海圣匣
.
Rank 3: Combine 27
沧海圣匣
.
Rank 4: Defeat Queen Azshara on Mythic difficulty.
Mainly used on single target.
This essence could be under the "top tier" category because it is very strong. Very good all-around choice. The haste increase during this is also very good as it can be used with
召唤地狱火
.
The minor power from this essence can be very good as a lot of our damage lies in small windows. If you manage to get 1-2
混乱之箭
into the 5% damage increase that's a nice bonus.
Spark of Inspiration -
灵感火花
Currently this essence is not worth using as a Destruction Warlock
The Formless Void -
无形虚空
This essence currently not worth using as a Destruction Warlock.
Blood of the Enemy -

High crit burst.
In order to fully use this major power, you will need to be within 12 yds. of your target. You rarely ever want to be that close to melee in a raid encounter. Having to move in and back out means that this essence, despite having very good potential for Destruction, is not worth it.
The minor power from this essence is pretty good. Both haste and crit are very good stats for Destruction and this can have very good value.
Conflict and Strife -

Rank 4: Reach Elite rank and claim your next weekly PvP War Chest.
Defensive only.
This major power is not worth using in any PvE scenario unless you for some reason need to be incredibly tanky.
The minor power is not very good, it might be in PVP but you won't be using this in any PvE scenario.

You will never want to use this.
There is no scenario where you would want to use this. There are better options for damage.
The minor power you gain from this essence is very bad, you will rarely ever be able to proc it.

The damage from this essence is just too low to ever want to use it.
The minor power you gain from this essence is not very good, it takes very long to stack and you won't be able to benefit enough from it when it does actually proc.

Rank 1: Complete the weekly quest

Rank 3: Complete the mission chain starting with "A Disturbing Rumor".

Solo gameplay
There are better alternatives for raiding and doing dungeons than this.
The minor power from this essence is situationally very good.
Purification Protocol -
净化协议
Dungeons or heavy add cleave
This major power is very situational, you will probably only ever use this in dungeons where you might be able to benefit from the damage increase you gain when something dies inside the beam.
The minor power you gain from this essence is overall not very good, there are better alternatives than this as the damage is not high enough.
Destruction Warlock Minor Essences
Two additional Minor Essence slots can be unlocked over time, providing additional benefit. While the above rankings already detailed several minor bonuses, the rankings below consider only the Minor or how it might interact when using it alongside a different Major Essence.
Breath of the Dying -
濒死之息
The minor power in this essence is very strong, does a lot of damage and also grants you 10 corruption resistance
The Crucible of Flame -
烈焰熔炉
Useful everywhere, mainly single target though.
The minor power is a random dot that has a chance to proc when you deal damage to a target. It deals decent damage and doesn't require you to play around it.
Vision of Perfection -
完美愿景
Situationally good, has very strong potential.
The minor power from this essence is generally not very good, but situationally can be very strong. When combining the new
粉碎混沌
that reduces the cooldown of your
召唤地狱火
by 15 seconds with this, your
召唤地狱火
ends up being a 2m 24s cooldown. This could potentially mean getting a full extra set of cooldowns off on a fight which can be very strong as a lot of our damage lies during our
召唤地狱火
uptime.
Essence of the Focusing Iris -
聚焦之虹的精华
Single target low movement
The minor power from this essence also has the potential to be good as haste is one of our best stats. Keep in mind when playing this you do not want to switch target very often if it can be avoided. Casting
浩劫
on another target than your main target does not remove these stacks. You might end up dropping these stacks if you are unable to cast on the target, even for a very short duration. This stacks back up quickly though.
Memory of Lucid Dreams -
清醒梦境之忆
Useful everywhere, especially good for cleave.
More soul shards=more damage. This power can end up gaining multiple soul shards over the chorus of a fight making it very strong.
Conflict and Strife -
冲突与斗争
This minor power offers a decent amount of versatility and can be very strong on multiple targets.
Purification Protocol -
净化协议
Multiple targets - Especially if the targets are abberations
The minor power you gain from this essence has the potential to do a lot of damage, mainly if the targets you deal damage to are abberations.
Worldvein Resonance -
世界血脉共鸣
Situationally the minor power from this trait can be very good, it does, however, require you to actually remain inside the 12yrd radius of the proc in order for it to be good. This gets gradually stronger the more people from your group are using it.
Condensed Life-Force -
生命之凝力
The minor power from this essence is not bad. It does, however, require you to keep an eye out as a lot of our damage comes from
混乱之箭
. This means you'll want to look to cast
混乱之箭
into this debuff. This is not always an option making this trait mediocre at best.
Blood of the Enemy -
仇敌之血
The minor power from this essence is not very good. Both haste and crit are very good stats for Destruction but there are better minor powers available.
Ripple in Space -
空间涟漪
The minor power you gain from this essence is very bad, you will rarely ever be able to proc it.
The Unbound Force -
不羁之力
The minor power you gain from this essence is not very good, it takes very long to stack and you won't be able to benefit enough from it when it does actually proc.
Spark of Inspiration -

Currently this essence is not worth using as a Destruction Warlock
The Formless Void -

Hey there, just looking at these essence charts... I've been playing with rank 2 vision of perfection and I believe it should be simming a LOT higher...
I did a quick Sim on Raidbots and noticed it is only casting summon infernal twice. Whereas in a real raid situation I've had ~15 proccs...
Can you confirm your Sims are accounting for that much infernal? My logs have been insanely good
