All Known Locations for Warlock Runes in WoW Classic Season of Discovery (SoD)
Players have been quick to discover the locations and conditions to unlock Warlock Runes in WoW Classic SoD to the delight of the community. I found this experience to be much smoother than, say, the Shaman at the beginning, which speaks to how highly-regarded the Warlock is by the community, typically at or near the top spots by players.
However, as you reach certain steps, you’ll reach some especially convoluted conditions to get some of these Runes. You’ll also definitely want a companion or two along your journey, perhaps a Warrior equipped with some Runes of their own.
As this is a developing story with players regularly seeking all Rune locations together, updates will be made with locations for Runes not yet found.
