WoW Classic Season of Discovery Warlock Runes

Runes are a new system introduced in World of Warcraft: Classic Season of Discovery that complement talents. They change how your class is played by altering existing abilities or providing new ones. These changes can be minor, such as increasing spell crit but also mana cost, or major, such as creating an entirely new role not typically performed by the class (such as warlock tanks).
