  • ha! They destroyed warlocks now. Blizzard hates their guts to promote their pretty boys the Death Knights.

  • Imp?

  • Im not hating on this video its really nice. But i thought soul fire was a longer cast, used a soul stone, and had a cool down? if im wrong can you tell me how you do that?

  • @masterwarcraft3 he's using a Demonology spe there for when a mob have less then 35% health he can spam soul fire the cast time is reduce alot and you dont need soul shards its kind of over powerd when you kill a really strong boss but really usefull ^^

  • at least 20% crit and rest is SP

  • NEED MOAR CRIT NOAW

  • Very helpful little macro i made. Pops all cooldowns, including trinkets, metamorphosis, Demonic emp, does lifetap, pops curse of elements and pops blood fury (if you're an orc.)

    /use 13

    /use 14

    /use Metamorphosis

    /use [pet:felguard][pet:imp]Demonic Empowerment

    /script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

    /use [target=focus,mod:alt,harm][no­mod:alt,harm]Curse of the Elements(Rank 5)

    /use Life Tap(Rank 8)

    /use Blood Fury(Racial)

    enjoy :)

  • around 10k dps

  • Nice guide, but it is only good below 35%...

  • hey what glyphs do you use for meta spec ? please help .

  • @klumzycuhz Major: Quick Decay, Life Tap, Felguard.

    Minor: Doesn't really matter.

  • @bothamliam thanks for the help . i also heard that you can use quick decay over felguard ? is it worthed it though ? i mean if you can get quicker molten core procs for that glyph ...

  • @bothamliam nvm lol

  • It goes way over this guys hits, crits and dps with my warlock on retail, as demo spec. I hitted my highest dps in todays ICC 10. We had a nice tank failing at a pull, sampling up 2 packs. Metamorph + immolation aura + Seed of Corruption spam. Gave me a nice 42k steady dps. :)

    On boss fights, i do 27k+ soulfires, at least. :)

  • so pretty much just spam soul fire

  • what is the cast bar addon called

  • Whats the addon above Recount wich shows the dps rising and lowering per time =)?

  • @TheAmacer1 Armory Timetokill(Dawnbringer-US) for my destro spec. in t9.25 you sorta wanna be in destro. Demo is for a bit higher gear.

  • So why was GS made> so lame only nubs use GS its all about skill

  • nice dmg... but mana?

  • is this spec good for a t9.5 geared warlock?

  • fun but try dps when your target is not bellow 35% :P

  • yes the group benefits more have a demo lock over a destro beacause of the raid sp buff.

  • holy shit

  • My first toon was a warock and that toon has been my main for 5 years. I can tell you that demon is not all that fun at all if you havnt been doing it long, to get top dps with demon takes time and skill to master it in all honesty, it can be confusing, and if you are already geared doing ICC and stuff dont change specs. Afliction seems to have good and fun dps and spec set around 5200 GS but i personaly think that destro is where its at, im 5700 GS on my warlock and i still go destro.

  • So you have been playing for 5 years and yet your messing around with GS ? from a veteran like you claim to be i would expect a whole other approach regarding GS

  • @ChrisIThink yeah i agree demon dose work but its ALOT harder to manage

  • just a question to experienced warlock players who is familiar with all 3 specs. which spec would be the funnest? (in order). ive been affliction in tbc and destro ever since LK came. But ive always wondered about demonology. how is the paly style? simple, confusing? let me know! thanks

  • Confusing hard but pretty fun.Demo charge ftw ^^

  • @krzyxbne still... remember that this specc gives youre raid 10% of youre spell power. and thats still worth something if you cant do same dps as your destru. me for exampel i buff around 400 spell power. better than shaman! ;)

  • thanks for the info. so raid-wise the group would actually benefit more from a demonology lock right?

  • which would also lead me to believe that they are more in demand between a destruction lock?

  • Comment removed

  • I just tried all three specs in a matter of a week, and I find demonology to be the most fun. I leveled demonology and stayed demonology as a 70 pre-WotLK and loved it. I love it now as an 80 esp. with metamorphosis. Meta increases your spell while you are in demon form, has certain aoe spells that cause DoT while you cast your improved shadowbolts and overall I find is easy to play. Destruction is ok, but affliction is a pain in the ass if you ask me. :D

  • @opaquelace Yeah affliction sucks...

  • nice to see big crit :D

  • Holy shit.

  • when the boss is under 35% health, your shadow bolt and incinerate will cause a demo lock to gain Decimation. Decimation makes the cast time reduced and it does NOT cost a soul shard.

    Demo is not the best for dps. Destro is nice for burst damage and adds. Affliction is the top damage. Affliction and Destro are more of play style preferences.

  • So if the target is not below 35 percent, using soul fire would mean having to carry 100 shards in your bag for a boss fight ?

    since it seems its the only thing besides the curses to cast

  • Cuz of Bane which reduces soulfire cast to 4 sec and decimacatio which reduces csat time of soulfire to bout 2 seconds thts y he's raping with soulfire

  • can someone explain to me when i stop shooting shadowbolt and switch to soul fire like at the beggining of this vids ownage he puts dots on then he used shadow bolt a few times then he raped soulfire... i really want to change to this spec but i need to know wtf to do! PLZ HELP

  • you use soulfire when the mob is below 35%health because its get 40% cast time reduction and it cost no soul shard anymore(sry my english is not the best)

  • just curious whats a good dps spec for a poor geared lvl 80 lock im not 80 yet but i guess ill be poorly geared when im there:P oh and what sort of gear do you need for this? OMFGEPIX? or average gear?:) nice vid btw awesome dmg go hit a gnome with that 0_0

  • @gandeto123 def OMFGEPIX gear, this guy is a full time raider, as for dps many go destro but some prefer affliction and a few go demonology, which was what this guy is. its really just ur choice on play style

  • thx ive stopped playing my warlock for a while now though northrend is terribly depressing but still your reply is much appreciated:)

  • Its not hax -___-' If ya didnt notice that dummy had less than 35% hp which means after one inc/sb/sf ur sf cast time is reduced and cost no shards... full demo aint still so good dps build yet. Its still very near destro and affli. and 0/41/** or something...

  • idiot

  • when target is below 30%life soulfire needs no shard when u cast it!! if u see the target here has very low hp so the soulfire that this guy cast consumes no soul, agree on ur comment though!!

  • PTR is down?

  • Recount

  • I was feeling those crits nice job bro like to see that on a pally or dk next time thou :)

  • What is the addon, with the curve that shows dps (red 1) called?

  • its just Recount, you gotta look in the windows section of Configuration

  • WOW WTF....THATS CRAZY..makes me wanna BUY THE GAME..DOWNLOAD THE GAME..AND MAKE A DEMO WARLOCK

  • @moneyboy356 gogogo warlock population is quite low on all realms atm :P

  • @Ammeron7

    You need less 'Hater rating' . . . fail

  • Goodbye soulshards xD

  • Nah, the talent Decimation reduces the cast time and takes away the cost of 1 soulshard.

  • @adolphjlj1

    Aw, kay :P

  • OMG Its fucking insane!

  • Fucking hell!! Thats insane!

  • when it came live it only lasts for 15 sec OR 3 casts so its not spamilb unless it props ALOT so only 3 soulfire's then u have 2 wait for it 2 proc agion... im in full greens wid 1300 sp and i crit 18k soulfire n horde ;P

  • @utopin No you can't.

  • u made my penis soft

  • OMG !!!!

  • OMFG

  • hes just using the decimation talent where if you cast shadowbolt incinerate or soul firewhen your targets at 35% or lower health your soul fire's cast time is reduced by 40% and costs no soul shard

  • Lol... Just? Its not just m8, it pwns when their under 35% :P

    Anyways, its 40% now yea.. since patch 3.3 but before, like in this movie, it was 60%, so will be bader now... :(

  • and the talent on Destru, that reducescast time on all firespells with an amount that i cant remember atm:D

  • wtf? op?

  • holly fuck shit cock.

  • ok the dummy is under 35% hp so the first 65% im sure he wasnt doing nearly as much dps...

  • your dps is amazing

  • What people don't seem to realize is that, Soul Fire, the spell getting most of those crits, really only works when the target is at 35% or less...no one is showing dps for the first 65%.

  • holyo!!!

  • I'd like to see that in arena / Battleground.

  • idd

  • 30k crits WTF!!!!

  • the power of t9.5 and Togc 25 gear !

  • FFS nerf

  • Incoming oom

  • wow i love the changed to demo, more dps plus the same raid buff.

  • well decimation only procs when the boss is what? 30% hp

    So u wont be able to pull off that much dps fast enough coz the boss will drop before u do. So ur overall dps will be moderate.

    *shrugs*

    Im interested on affliction dps test on ptr 3.3. Anyone interested on doing that? Like to see the outcome since haste and DOTs scale, right? More haste faster dot proc

  • in 3.3 decimation will be procing anytime, since on dummy's u don't "really" dmg it.

    Tested it myself on live server, 3.2.2.

    decimate didn't proc at all, therefor in 3.3 i believe they're making it so it proc all the time.

  • I don't understand. Decimation procs off attacks made to a target under 35% hp, and some dummies are under it some are not. The only things that are being changed now is that it can also proc off soulfires which instead of constant casting of sb -> sf -> sb to weave decimation procs in, making dots fall off, you can now cast soulfires without having to worry about dots falling off. The other change is that soulfire cast speed is reduced by 20% extra then it was before 3.3 (now 40%).

  • I think its only on corruption that the haste will change, "glyph of quick decay"

  • This is why I'm going Decimation:Conflag =3

  • can you get a soulshard off a dummy?

  • no...

  • yea you can

  • you can get a ss off the heroic training dummy which is the boss level guy/

  • 19k dps peak. holy jesus

  • Wtf, how much haste do you have to get soul fire down to 1.1 seconds.... was this before they brought decimation down to only 40% cast time reduction?

  • Talents/gems?

  • Well I work it out to be 45% haste, that's with decimation and full bane. However you cut it, that's a lot of haste, in fact it's about 1400 haste rating

  • well he( or she) only dpsed below the execute % , still it seems like demo is only good for assist above that... but at least u can do dmg now ^^

  • I garantee Pvp QQ is gonna get Demo

    gutted for pve again.

  • why qq , decimate only works under 35% hp and need sb debuff on the target first , its like the drain soul from affliction skilld locks and no one qq about affli locks , nothing will change with this patch , and btw demo already got nerfed on the prt so its still sucks compared to destroction, im looking forward to affliction changes

  • Demo Is awesome.

    <3 the felgaurd

  • Yeah demo and affliction are gaining nice damage and dps buffs, the damage on destro will remain the same but the dps will be lower because of the conflag not bursting as high on the first hit. Remember though, with decimation its on the LAST 35% HP of the boss. Bare that in mind other than that looks very promising :)

  • Yeah who cares though you become a god with the 35% left holy crap.

  • Oha ich bin schockiert

  • hey m8 i dont know how to play on PTR. I download it, but he is downloading old patches. SOMEONE PLZ HELP!!!!

  • Yeah it has to patch itself, just let it download and install and it should be good to go.

  • ok thx!

  • I think with demonology u should be able to fuse with your demon so that u have permanent demon form.

  • but the only way they'd do that is if blizzard severely nerfed demon form

  • it would be really nice, such as boomkin, feral, and treeform. That way locks gain the ability to tank as well. That 600% armor buff is really nice

  • ooooh, gimme meta as permanent form like shadowform please :)

  • Currently patch 3.2 (Very basic):

    Destro 3/13/55 or 0/13/58 #1 dps

    Affliction ruin #2

    Meta/ruin #3 (400 or so dps below destro for me)

    Patch 3.3:

    Meta/ruin #1

    0/41/30 #2

    Destro #3

    Aff #4

    Destro conflag nerf will knock off a good chunk of the current dps, however demo is being heavily buffed (check EJ/stimulacraft for more info)

  • Wow really??? So demonology is going to own I guess I'm not mad. :P

  • no this is a raiding spec..  and before this it was and IS only a starter spec. But my spec went without demo form and i picked up Conflag and picked up decimation for the 35% hp soul fire spamapalooza once u have hit cap it is far more beneficial to go full destro.

  • Yes Demonology dps did look nice, but you will not be able to soulfire spam a raid boss untill 35% so the other 65% of the health will have to be done shadowbolt spamming which will not have as close as good damage.

  • so what?

    u just spam soulfire

  • omg multi dps omg...

    soulfire = 27k dmg ?!?!?! omg lol ...crank

  • how do you get glyphs ?

  • Are you using some sort of stop casting macro? I see many of your casts stopping before the end of the Quartz bar, yet the cast still happens. It was my understanding stop casting macros weren't necessary anymore. Please explain, and if so, post the macro plz.

  • Nope, just good old fashioned button mashing.

  • What addon u use?

  • ...

    all you're doing is spamming soulfire. did they remove the soulshard requirement to cast? toting around 60 shards per boss encounter doesnt sound realistic

  • looked at your tree.. still decimation under 35% health.. of coarse dummies will be that low on health.. but it still does not sound realistic in raid encounters

  • lol you think anyones that stupid to actually carry 60+ soul shards around? 1)You're only allowed a max of 32 soul shards on you at all times now.

    Seeing as this is your first time seeing this - welcome to a talent called Decimation in the Demonology tree.

    Oh hai look heres a fun fact, if you click the more info tab to the right theres some...well, more info!

    And how does this more info help us? Easily, simply read it and it will stop you from posting retarded comments

  • fabrizio: it will be interesting to see how it turns out. alot of these videos are dependent on standing very close range for quicker spell hits. and HUGE spikes in actual dps. from 21k crit down to a staggering 3k hits. it's just too spikey.

  • but its not dropping to 3k hits, they're actually 7-8k hits if you look properly, the 3k crits would be something else, cant tell because theres too much static in his combat text, but I can tell you for sure when his soulfires hit, its definately not for anything less than 6.5k.

  • If I wanted to make some kind of epeen dummy benchmark vid I would've ran a few attempts to get RNG crits up. A few times when the dummy hit 35% my DPS broke 10k with 2+ mil damage done.

    The vid is just a demonstration, I'm not trying to prove anything or I would've been on the level 60 dummies dropping Immolation Aura. I also had to drop a ton of SP to gem for hit cap.

    Raid buffed with 2pc t11 w/Firestone and Soulfire crit chance will be well over 50%. Think about that for a sec.

  • well i was reading up on warlocks den about the meta spec now. this one guy was saying how good it was for his guild. so i tried it tonight. i had the gear and hit, but demon now just makes me look like a chump on the dps meters. f that.  also this spell rotation is stupid. i kept getting clumsy with the shadow bolt and soulfire rotation.

    if they are buffing this tree then destro will also be buffed. i had already seen word that affliction was being worked on .but f that too

  • It's good AoE for fights like Anub'Arak or Ony, it's terrible for tank and spank fights like Patchwerk and the rotation is so boring. If you've got like 4000 spell dmg it'd be worth going Demo for the raid buff if you've got a lot of casters.

    Aff is getting buffed and Destro will still be competitive but Demo will at least have a niche. Meta needs to be a permanent form.

  • Yeah you do high damage with soulfire,but that spell costs alot of soulstones.

    The cost would be too much for raids unless they take off the cost of the soulstone

  • PTR Notes: Decimation: Redesigned. When Shadow Bolt, Incinerate or Soul Fire hit a target that is at or below 35% health, the cast time of Soul Fire is reduced by 20/40% for 8 seconds. Soul Fires cast under the effect of Decimation cost no shards.

  • Thanks for reminding me.

    This information may prove usefull.

  • puedes hacer un video en destrccion y subirlo??? pliiis :)

  • This has been nerfed right? Soulfire now doesn't proc decimation and decimation only reduces casting time by 60%. Am i right?

  • Not exactly... It was not nerfed, this is the buff on the PTR

  • So, did locks have this at any point on normal realms?

    Also how do i get the cool spell bar that shows the time of the cast?

  • omg i just peed a little

  • With rated BG` s i still see this as op in pvp. Current decimation can be dragged to the next mob; ie, proc it on 1 player and then spam 1.5 secs, 20k crits for the next 8 seconds - it will be very easy to keep this proc up in bgs. A better solution could be; procs after 3 shadowbolts at 100% hp, after 2 shadowbolts at 50% and after 1 sb at 35%. Just let it proc, like it does on ptr so there wont be any problems wth travel time etc.

  • good idea, post it on the suggestion forum instead, take action :P

  • what custom interface is that? plz reply

  • the only extra mod on that interface is Recount, to measure dps, the two windows on the right side, everthing else is standard blizzard

  • You must not have noticed the Quartz bar (with the handy latency meter).

  • I am so going to abuse this for as long as it lasts...

  • "It's behaving as if Soul Fire doesn't even consume the Decimation proc"

    Actually, Soul Fire is proccing Decimation - it's in the current patch notes; Shadowbolt, Incinerate and Soul Fire can all proc Decimation.

  • Yes, but the proc occurs when Soulfire lands on the target and is supposed to be consumed when the spell is cast. It's not like Shatter where you can double-dip.

    If you look at my buff bar you'll see it remains behind Meta and is never consumed.

  • Nevermind, I was mistaken.

    Decimation: Redesigned. When Shadowbolt, Incinerate or Soul Fire hit a target that is at or below 35% health, the cast time of Soul Fire is reduced by 30/60% for 8 seconds. Soul Fires cast under the effect of Decimation cost no shards.

    Looks like Decimation has been changed to an 8 second buff instead of just applying to your next Soulfire.

  • 24k crit. wow im making a lock. i always though demo was cool felguard + meta is badass.

  • Don't hold your breath. GC obviously didn't nerf Destro's 12k crits just so you could swap over to 24k crits.

  • the damage of soulfire isn't changed, just the way decimation works. the crits you're seeying here are from good pve gear sported by a pve spec while stacking cooldowns.

    you might want to think things over before you start whining. oh, my highest nonstaged soulfire crit so far in WSG was 32.448, obviously need a nerf! just because its a high number!

    while actually I used pve gear, flasked, got berserking and shot an unsuspecting newly dinged paladin with 15k hitpoints with no resilience.

  • It's ok, resil will fix it.

  • lmao

  • Yea, sry Locks, but this will get somekind of nerf stick, not because Demonology didnt needed a solid buff, but because Blizzard prolly will think the absurb execute burst of 5-6 Decimations locks, will have to high impact on some fights. Decimation will prolly end up as 30% ish haste buff for soulfire.
