This PR implements the latest Demonology Warlock changes found in the 12.1.0 PTR spell data (as of 2026-08-01) that require manual code adjustments.
Changes intended for 12.1.0 are guarded behind version checks. The existing behavior for versions
<12.1.0remains unchanged.Gloomhound
The Summon Gloomhound effect was hotfixed to increase all of its damage by 35%.
There is no visible damage modifier or coefficient change in the spells or spell data used by Gloomhound. However, in-game testing on the 12.1.0 PTR confirmed that all of its damage is increased by 35%, including melee attacks, physical attacks, and spell attacks.
This damage increase has been modeled in SimC by increasing Gloomhound's owner-stat inheritance coefficients by 35% for versions
>=12.1.0.In spell data, the Summon Gloomhound spell changed its
misc_value2from4266to6852. This value references aSummonPropertiesentry. Vilefiend and Charhound continue to use4266, while the new6852value is exclusive to Gloomhound among these variants. The newSummonPropertiesentry6852is not yet available in the currently exported DB2 data, so its exact internal differences from4266cannot be inspected. This can be revisited once the entry becomes available, in case it provides any additional information about how this damage increase is applied to Gloomhound.Isolated Implosion
The Demonology 12.1.0 4pc spell data effects used by Isolated Implosion were hotfixed:
In-game damage remains unchanged. Before this hotfix, the listed
150%/125%values behaved as+150%/+125%increased effectiveness, resulting in total multipliers of250%/225%. The corrected spell data now directly contains the observed total effectiveness values of250%/225%. In SimC, the previous implementationbase_dd_multiplier *= 1.0 + modifier;has therefore been changed tobase_dd_multiplier *= modifier;
