Follows the guide’s 13/0/8 diagram and step list. An introductory sentence still mentions three Holy points.
Put 13 points in Discipline to reach Meditation, then use Spirit Tap and a longer Shadow Word: Pain to support leveling.
The trade-off: Meditation keeps some Spirit-based mana regeneration running while casting. At level 30, taking it leaves Mind Flay and Vampiric Embrace out of this allocation.

The trade-off: Takes Ice Block and single-target freeze/crit talents; Improved Blizzard stays at zero. Uses 21 ordinary points, with no Talented Legacy bonus.
How it plays at level 30
- Cast Frostbolt from range and watch for Frostbite or Fingers of Frost.
- For a Frostbite freeze, finish the Frostbolt already casting before using Ice Lance.
- For Fingers of Frost, Teloril advises interrupting the current Frostbolt to use Ice Lance before another cast consumes the proc.
Keep in mind: Frostbite and Fingers of Frost need different reactions. Improved Blizzard is unselected; do not treat this as an AoE-farming allocation.

Instant Corruption and resource recovery for questing between dungeon runs.
The trade-off: Soul Harvesting is the source's optional final point; this version keeps it.
How it plays at level 20
- Send your demon in first, then apply Immolate and Corruption.
- Add Bane of Agony when the enemy will live long enough for its later ticks.
- Use your wand to finish weakened enemies; Drain Soul when you need a shard.
Keep in mind: Do not refresh a DoT just before it expires or keep spending mana when existing DoTs will finish the kill. Leave enough health to survive after Life Tap.

Historical Crix allocation · linked guide now credits Abide
This earlier pet-focused variant puts all eleven points into Demonology, including Master Summoner. Corruption still needs a cast.
The trade-off: Crix's historical level-20 allocation. The linked guide credits Abide as of 22 October 2026 and covers level 30; it does not verify this earlier allocation as a current recommendation.

Historical allocation · current guide conflicts
Sellin’s earlier level-20 setup combines early attack talents with Precision and Puncturing Wounds. His October 2 guide is for level 30; its text and calculator disagree on one point, so we have kept this dated allocation.
The trade-off: This earlier version skips Deflection and Riposte. Use it for historical comparison, then check the current guide and your in-game tree before spending points.
