I would not be at my "max DPS potential" if I was Seducing, either. Remember, the times I have done that, I fell right to the bottom of the list. This is not an uncommon problem.
Show me one Warlock who went in to an instance who has never used to succubus before and instantly masters it. The succubus is not an easy minion to use. She's very fragile and has a limited mana pool and her cast is channeled. You will have a hard time finding a Warlock who goes into an instance saying "I love using the succubus". Does she suck? Yeah.
The point I'm trying to get across is that to put her in the wastebasket and figure she is useless will only hurt you in the long run. Your VW works fine for now, proper cc or not, you survive and thats all that matters, but eventually he will be become situational. This is the point, all minions are situational. They all have their flaws and strengths. To just look at a succubus' flaws without looking at her strengths is gunna hurt you. To just look at the VW's strengths and ignoring the flaws will also hurt you.
Learn the ins and outs of each minion and when it is best to use them.
