How you get it

No trainer level in the client data

The tables we read record no trainer level for Demonic Howl. That usually means it comes with another ability, a talent or a quest rather than a level-up visit to the trainer; we have not confirmed which in game.

In Season of Discovery, Demonic Howl was a rune engraved on gear. In Forever it is an ordinary Warlock ability, one of 9 former runes the class keeps.
