RaceGnomeKeep the demon's grimoire ranks current. They matter as much as your own spells on this Gnome Warlock route from Coldridge Valley through Loch Modan, Westfall, Redridge, Duskwood, and the Wetlands. We'll get the Imp and Voidwalker, find useful wands and cloth, and keep enough Soul Shards ready. Longer demon trips and dungeons sit in optional chapters.
What to install from CurseForge for Forever: the useful and the fun
Soul Shard counter helps avoid starting a long chain without a summon.Small things about your route, mobs, mana, and speed that add up to hours over a whole leveling run
Main route: Coldridge Valley → Dun Morogh → an early Stormwind visit for your Voidwalker → Loch Modan → Westfall → Redridge Mountains → Duskwood → Wetlands → finish Duskwood. The Imp and Voidwalker quests are required. Every optional chapter is independent and includes the complete trip.
Vendor stock comes from the client files: check availability and prices in game. Prioritize training, grimoires for your current demon, food and bag space; buy a wand only for a noticeable upgrade.
Builds for 10-30: which one to pick and in what order to spend points
You earn 21 points from 10 to 30. I'd start with Affliction: DoTs and wand, or Demonology if you'd rather strengthen the demon. All four orders use the tree after Blizzard's November 2 changes. Respec with Briarthorn in Ironforge or Ursula Deline in Stormwind. At launch, the price starts at 1 gold. Pick a direction before spending if you'd rather keep that gold for spells and books.

Corruption and Bane of Agony. Add Immolate when the target will live long enough for the burn to do useful damage.
Shoot. Do not spend another full spell sequence on a weak, nearly dead enemy.Bane of Agony is a bane; Curse of Weakness helps against dangerous physical attackers. Do not apply old Classic's single shared-category limit.Life Tap converts health into mana; Spirit improves its efficiency in Forever. Use it between safe fights, when your demon is healthy and the next enemy is still far away.Drain Life, Healthstones, and bandages can restore it, but they aren't a reason to head out without food or water.Health Funnel transfers your health to your demon. Get out of danger first: do not heal your pet carelessly while draining your own health with Life Tap.
Torment is how the Voidwalker holds a target. Its new ranks come from separate books. If mobs keep turning on you, check that rank before blaming the talent build.
Sacrifice from 16, after its grimoire, sacrifices your Voidwalker for a shield. This is an emergency exit from a bad fight; afterward you need a shard and a new summon. 
Consume Shadows from 18 restores your demon out of combat.Drain Soul on mobs that still give experience to get Soul Shard. Forever allows a shard during a channel tick, but on November 2 that chance was cut hard, so the reliable way is the target dying during the channel: that guarantees one. Gray mobs won't supply them.Create Healthstone creates a Healthstone; Create Soulstone from 18 creates a Soulstone. Train new ranks separately. Do not keep an outdated Healthstone just because it is already in your bag.Fear helps in open areas, but a fleeing enemy may pull neighbors. Coordinate Fear with your group in tight dungeons; clearing the extra patrol first is usually safer.
Escape Artist removes slows and roots. It buys distance, but does not remove every type of crowd control. Retreat along a cleared path.Ritual of Summoning needs a shard and two helpers beside you. Arrange the meeting point first. A Warlock on their own can't summon the rest of a party across the world.
Seduction through a grimoire from 26. Damage over time breaks sustained control: do not apply DoTs to the intended crowd-control target.Alamar Grimm in Anvilmar; Gimrizz Shadowcog in Kharanos; Briarthorn in Ironforge and Ursula Deline in Stormwind.
