SL/SL buildFollow

#1 Nov 27 2007 at 10:21 AM Rating: Decent
I've been really curious about this build. Have a few questions.

Is this a "Arena" only type of build or can you do world pvp with it as well?

What are the main points of this build?What do you benefit from this type of build? Is there a main pet to be kept out with this type of build? What tatic are you using with it?Is there a certain amount of spell damage or shadow damage you need with this build? I am planning to start pvping alot!. Will also be doing arenas as well. I just hear alot about this build,but you lose quite few good benefits by not going deep into either tree. However,I do hear it is still awesome dps and survivalbility.


Thanks in advance for any advice given.

sl\sl is build for survivability,you DONT do good dmg as aff or destro.
its good for any kind of pvp,bad for pve,except farming.
tactic is different vs different classes.rough tactic is all dots then just drain life.mind you,drain life got fixed,nerfed call it whatever.
pet you will be using is felhunter.

actually if you see that you are against only melee you can switch to void.. found it useful and didnt saw it metioned before.

1. This build is not "arena only", but you could say that its pvp/solo only. Your DPS will simply not be high enough to get into raids (no reason you cant do 5 mans with it though).

2. The main points are of course soul link and siphon life :)

3. Your benefit is sheer survivability. At a decent gear level, with this build, you will be able to DOT up and draintank nearly any other DPS class and win. In demo tree, SL is a better talent that felguard, and since youll be using felhunter youre not losing out there. In affli, UA is useful but not enough to be worth taking rather than soul link.

The benefits:
-35% mitigation vs physical (counting armour ofc)
-20% mitigation vs magical (the only class i know of that can mitigate magic)
-selfhealing
-silencing and buff eating by pet
etc

ua is far better than soullink,once you get hp and resi.YOUR DOTS WONT BE DISPELLED.

well
IM currently sl/sl mainly cuz im grindin alot of honor since i just dinged 70.
It works out great.
Anway the point is dat u dont actually do much less damage dan u would with full affli since u get 5% more damage from sl and if u got succ summoned u get 10% more damage and with demonis knowlegde u a about 150 plus spelldamage.
Ofc u would do more damage pure affli but u dnt lose dat much damage cuz of the demo points.
The important things u lose r instant cast howl of terror and dark pact(unstable affli ofc too).
U cn also specc demonic tactics/ruin for more crit and if u plan casting sb in raids dis specc will do better damage dan pure destro.

<3 soullink

Turkeniburkin, please spend some more time in English before posting again, it would do a great deal in helping you get your points across.

1.) Never, EVER, Soul Link with the succubus in PvP.
2.) The reason Unstable Affliction is a better build for when you get more resilience and HP is, as someone mentioned, your DoT spells do not get dispelled.
