Curiosity. It killed the cat.Follow

So, are any of you people browsing the forums willing to evaluate my Locks build/equipment. I'd like to know if I need to change it out or what not in preparation for the early 70 instances. I'm currently tanking myself and using my Succy as an extra "DoT". My spell rotation right now is immolate, 2xS. Bolt, finishing it with either Searing Pain, or a Soul Drain. Any advice is helpful!

Erhmm.

For Solo play you're Demo/Destro and you don't use Felguard? You should give that a try?

For trash in 5-mans you'll probobly also do better with a Felguard than with Succy - she's not so hot Damage and she cant take a hit for anything. The 5% bonus to Damage over the Felguard does have some usefulness, although the Guard himself would usually make up for the loss as hes a superior pet.

You're geared sorta strange, like a cut down the middle of a Succubus Sac and a Destro lock, but without the SpellHit. I can see how you can perform decently but I don't see the general flow of the build.

You could easily do some Fear Juggling with DoTs if you don't mind being in the monster's faces, and this would allow a MUCH higher accelerated killrate. That would involve picking up Affliction (especially Dark Pact) and a bit more HP. Using the Imp w/ Phase Shift means a great mana battery that cannot be bothered by anyone - even AEs.

If you don't like using the Succubus at all, you could start a road down Destruction that'll serve you pretty well - although gearing for raiding will require a great deal more SpellHit. Your best bet here is to spec 0/21/xx with Demonic Sacrafice, and Sacrafice the Succubus for 15% Shadow Bonus.

For your current setup, however, I think your best bet is to just shift around your Demonology talents a bit. You can afford to put 7 into Affliction for Improved Corruption and Improved Life Tap. Get the Felguard for tanking while Grinding and damage in 5-mans. Dump the rest into Destruction to help bolster your Shadow Bolt spam. This will work great with your current Gear at least until you get into the heavier Heroix and raiding.
