PVP build?Follow

#1 May 19 2008 at 11:55 AM Rating: Decent
What is a good PVP build (Arena)?

I was an affliction lock on my other toon, and I enjoyed it, and I wouldn't mind doing it again; however, is affliction the best choice for PVP?

Let me know what suggestions you might have.

Battlegrounds: Any Deep affliction build, Felguard, 0/7/54 fire destro(personal favorite), 40/0/21, 21/0/40. ~ or other variants

Arena: SL/SL, 7/4x/x, are the main 1's

My first arena(3v3) week I had deep affliction and used Felhunter. Then I switched to the 6/44/11 and used Felguard -- much more enjoyable for me. Perhaps not the best strategically but our win% was the same.

A hunter's pet + Felguard running around chopping seemed to add another player to the group. Concerted DPS won against most groups, till we hit one with 2 or more healers.

Felguard is very fun in the BGs.

Incidentally, I was worried about my PVP damage output when switching to Demo, but the returned bonuses of deep Demo seem to actually add spell stats (of course at the expense of useful spells/talents).

Some Demo talents are great for boosting DPS. And the Felguard owns in BGs. I love going one on one with another 'lock who is Affliction. If we're semi-similar geared I can just DoT and watch, occasionally Drain Life-ing.

Just watch for a Banish...

I've am a pretty heavy pvp'er and love the bg's, and aff is a good spec if u just wanna spam dots until you become enemy number 1. But i have to say the crits of destro works better for pvp, it kills things fast (realz fast) and bc ur a 70 u have enough points if you use them right to still get allot of the benefits of the aff tree. I would highly recommend these two pecs. This build allows for all the crits of the destro spec and all the dot damage from corruption and the benifits from soul siphon and night fall. My other pvp spec would be this. It main DD is shadow bolt but it's nice reach into aff allows for good dots.
