Interface
Having a clean UI is key, something where you can easily track your DoTs on multiple targets. Your UI usually comes down to personal preference so don’t just copy a UI, make sure you meet your own requirements and be able to modify it if you need to.

Weakauras
Most of weakauras are just personal preferences so you better look for them on your own on wago.io.
Ipse’s public Warlock WA pack - https://wago.io/Nkgbld8YW
Getting a soulstone Weak Aura will also be a good idea, so you don't forget and have the whole raid flaming you. (https://wago.io/rMSVf8ShS) It will tell you when there are no healers with a soulstone on.
Glowing DoT Timers - Shows when under 5 seconds for Pandemic Invocation (https://wago.io/4H2ichE-F) - It is a Plater mod, so requires the Plater addon.
