MoP Warlock Guide

[Fezzik]

We both played affli on Elegon and i think it's by far the best choice. Just enter the phases with at least 2 soulshards, soulburn soulswap and malefic grasp the sparks. We killed 5 waves of sparks and started using cooldowns after the third wave, your dmg on sparks isnt top notch but better than that of other dot classes.

Here's an alternative method to help kill the sparks. I take Mannoroth's Fury on the fight, time it so I use SS:Seed of Corruption on the boss right before the sparks arrive, and then use Harvest Life, again on the boss, once the sparks are out.

Between your DoTs and Harvest Life, your SS:SoC will burst while the sparks are in range of the boss, which is pretty big with Mannoroth's Fury. So you'll get damage on everyone's spark with SoC, plus you'll have a Corruption on everyone's spark for decent damage and quick Shard regen, and you can channel the entire duration of Harvest Life, which is spread out to all sparks as well.

You'll be helping your fellow raiders take down their spark as well as doing significant damage to your own, and doing damage to the boss the entire time. You'll either need to finish off your own spark after Harvest Life or get a little assistance from a tank or another ranged. Overall, you'll be ensuring everyone can get theirs down faster.

We got through 5 Sparks this way.

Yea did this last raid, works very well. Reached over 10 million damage on charges vs the normal 2-4. Forgot MF though, would have been more if so.


@ Hexx, still not sure what you mean!

Reasoning behind 10% haste cap
- Corruption and unstable affliction gain an additional tick during bloodlust

Hey, I just wanted to note that according to the calculations done here, UA and Corruptions gains extra ticks during lust at 4198 haste rating. This seems to also check out with the stat weightings I find when I run simulationcraft with just above, and just below, 4198 haste rating (mastery becomes worth more above 4198, while below haste is worth most).

Ya, that is what the 10% (unbuffed) are for (roughly said)

Hi guys. Sparko & Varia, What do you think about the 4717 Haste rating cap(without raid buffs) for an additional corruption tic Vs 10% haste and a little more mastery ?

It's not worth it right now, you can test it yourself going for the cap and your DPS. Maybe in a multi dotting scenario it would be worth it
