Thoughts of a dying Affliction LockFollow

So while I'm sitting here, waiting for the Spirit Guide to resurrect me yet again, I begin to ponder about my choice in talents.

The Warlock class is starting to annoy me. I apply all my DoTs and then I watch them run to healer safety after I'm dead. Not fun. Destruction might be the answer, but I'm not sure.

Should I change my specialization from Shadoweave if I go Destruction? Frozen Shadoweave isn't exactly Destruction armor.

As a straight out affliction fanatic, I must say give affliction a chance, think about this: if they have a healer next to them healing them, they ARE going to kill you unless you too have a healer, no matter what spec you are.

Also think about all the damage you are throwing to your enemies, and most of the time, killing them after they've killed you.

If you have SCT, you will have an option to display a "Killing blow!" message everytime you kill someone, wich tends to appear a lot on my screen when Im waiting for the spirit guide to resurrect, and I dont even have 3 epics.

I believe you should focus on throwing all the dots you can at the biggest amount of targets you can, to, obviously cause the most damage possible. Top priority specially around healers should be Unstable Affliction, since it does a great amount of damage, and an impressive effect on the dispeller, if they are dumb enough to do so.

Dont give up on the affliction locks, specially with your FSW, since it would be really bad for destruction.

A good idea would be throwing a seed on em before you die, and UA to make the healer have second thoughts about dispelling the DoT's

Don't go first. You're not made to take hits, as destro, demo, or afflic. Hang back, DoT them up, and if anyone so much as looks at you, get the hell out of there.
