A warlock in demon form
Metamorphosis is a warlock ability learned at level 10 for those with the Demonology specialization. It is the hallmark of that specialization, allowing use of a demonic form powered by Demonic Fury, granting an array of unique abilities.
While shapeshifted, the demon-form warlock can be banished. Demon form is also susceptible to Turn Evil and grants an auto-crit on Exorcism but is immune to enslave demon.
You speak Demonic instead of your normal language.
Metamorphosis can be used for AoEFarming by picking up a bunch of Mobs and then using Immolation Aura and Hellfire.
Trivia[]
Metamorphosis is adapted from the iconic demon hunter ability of the same name, and is visually based on Illidan Stormrage's demon form.
Metamorphosis is considered [form:2] in macros.
At one point, warlocks in demon form could be enslaved.
