[BUG] Warlock - Absolute Corruption
Closed this issue · 27 comments
Before You Begin
- I confirm that I have downloaded the latest version of the addon.
- I am not playing on a private server.
- I checked for an existing, open ticket for this issue and was not able to find one.
- I edited the title of this bug report (above) so that it describes the issue I am reporting.
Describe the Issue
When Absolute Corruption is selected as a talent for Affliction Warlock the addon will not recognize Wither/corruption on the target(s) and will infinitely suggest casting wither/corruption/seed of corruption. When talented out of Absolute Corruption the addon works flawlessly.
when pvp dummies / pvp players are targeted the addon functions as intended with no issue.
How to Reproduce
- Affliction warlock
- Talent into Absolute Corruption in the Affliction talents 3 row
- apply wither/corruption to PvE targets or Dummies

I downloaded the addon fresh from curseforge and I am unable to replicate this issue, wither duration is showing up just fine in the APL with absolute corruption talent. Can you try reinstalling?
- this entry's criteria FAILS: ( ( ! talent.wither.enabled[true] & dot.corruption.remains[0.00] < 5 ) | ( talent.wither.enabled[true] & dot.wither.remains[3599.21] < 5 ) ) & ! ( action.seed_of_corruption.in_flight[false] | active_dot.seed_of_corruption[0.00] > 0 )
There are 2 recheck events.
deleted the addon, fresh install today 05/08/25
absolute corruption > on all targets > suggesting wither/seed of corruption
In this case, I think it's a matter of not seeing Wither as equivalent to Corruption / Absolute Corruption. I'll tinker with it tomorrow.
@Hekili im not sure of the technicals behind what youre saying. but after reading this, i spec'd out of Hellcaller hero talents and into Soul Harvester, to remove Wither from the equation. With only corruption available to Soul Harvester, and absolute corruption talented, the same issue exists for me. paste of that scenario below. Thank you again for what you do!
*additional - in all scenarios as soon as a "pvp" target is selected, and corruption / wither has a duration with absolute corruption talented, the rotation runs smoothly.
The addon was working properly again, until today's update 06/01/25.
recreate by having absolute corruption talented in a Delve. The creates the problem 100% of the time for me.
occasionally, with a few uninstalls, re-installs, logging out and back in, disabling the addon and reenabling it, it will work with absolute corruption. But even that doesnt seem to be fixing the issue at the moment.
Can confirm, was happening before 11.2 and after.
Similar as above, some relogs would fix it temporarly.
Issue persists regardless of Hellcaller vs SH. It seems the addon might have sometimes an issue either recognizing absolute corruption or not seeing a duration on wither/corruption marks it as no being there.
snapshot example below with Wither.
I have the same problem, I found a tip to get the addon working again, I put "Wither" on a dummy and I afk 15 20min, and the addon works again :D it's annoying but it works
For context, I managed to sometimes dodge this issue.
I think its related to the talent itself, not the duration. Since respeccing (usually once or twice) to a build not using AC fixes the addon.
E.g. AC talented, recommends wither/corruption even if already present on target - respec to change AC talent, wither/corruption recommended correctly. - respec back to AC, wither/corruption no longer recommended when present on target.
Based on this, I believe it has an issue recognizing the talent itself.
Edit - spelling
I am still not able to recreate this in any way on my warlock.
I noticed that most of the time the recommendation is screwed up (for recreation purposes), is when i'm switching builds.
Not always changing hero talents, but for example switching Hellcaler ST build (without AC) to a Hellcaller AoE build (with AC).
Happends sometimes with SH too.
Try to toy with these events, changing the build (not necessarily the specialization) back an forth when you login and see if that recreates it.
I also tried deleting hekili, removing any kind if saves including cache + WTF folder and still persists 7/10 times.

Hello, the problem persists after today's update, and the rotation is completely bugged now.

You should open a new ticket for that then
It's the same issue I've already reported. I opened a ticket yesterday, but it was closed as a duplicate. This is still a problem
I thought you meant rotation is completely bugged now as being a different issue than wither.
Yes, it would be necessary, but I don't have time for that, because we have to do Pastbin and detailed, I'm at work, I just want it to work at launch tomorrow :(
In any case the Wither problem isn't a version-specific issue; it's broken no matter which version you use.
Effected by the same issue. Addon suggests Corruption as highest priority even if absolute corruption is specced and corruption is already on target.
Switching specs around a few times temporarily resolves the issue.
What seems to also cause the issue (for replication purposes) is to switch specs frequently in a dungeon in between fights. Between Destro and Affliction.
I have also experienced this issue and was wondering if there are any additional details required for it to get fixed.
It seems like it is an issue as soon as "Absolute Corruption" and "Wither" is the active talens with Affliction Warlocks. No matter what type of content I do, it does not recognize the debuff and recommend any futher spells for me.
If anyone is able to reproduce this issue, can you do it and run this macro:
/run local s=Hekili and Hekili.State;if s then local d=s.dot and (s.dot.corruption or s.dot.wither);if d then print("ce",s.cycle_enemies,"ap",d.applied,"ex",d.expires,"rm",d.remains,"qt",s.query_time) else print("no dot") end else print("no Hekili") end
And screenshot the output?
Actually, with the workaround in the APL you probably won't be able to trigger it.
Permanent fix has been posted: #5209
The issue would arise for Affliction warlock if your PC was not turned on for longer than 1 hour.

That's not a joke.
For Destro, it was related to target swaps and was fixed by Hekili today as well.
Both should be in the next addon update.
@syrifgit Thank you for the update. This was oddly specific and not really something I would have expected :D
