Hello here is my issue right now in a normal 5-man I do about 600 dps or so. My spell rotation for the most part is CoA - Corruption - SL - UA - Immolate - SB untill dots start to fade then start to reapply dots as needed and toss a SB when I get a chance. That is what I do for bosses, on trash I toss a Corruption up on every mob if pally tank or the main kill if warrior tank than SB to death.

Here is my armory http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Greymane&n=Soulmistress

I just need a few more primal fires and I will be getting the belt of blasting made. Plus I am in a full clear Kara every week for badges and maybe some loot.

So my question is my dps low or is it right where it should be for my gear. If it should be higher what should I change in my spec or rotation.

Thx for the help.

I'd say your doing fine, but one question. Is that your DPS for an overall run, or just a boss?

Your DPS on bosses should be a little higher than trash, so try looking at just your Boss DPS, as that's what really matters as an Affliction lock.

A little sdvice for some improvement, get rid of all your gems and replace them all with Pure +Hit Gems until you are hit capped. Ignore the socket bonuses, except for maybe the ones that give you +Hit. You'll still come out ahead with pure +Hit gems there though. The Spell Penetration gems you have are worthless in PvE, and Affliction should not gem for crit. Really noone should gem for Crit, but especially not Affliction. This will be the single best way to increase your DPS on boss fights, especially if your going to be running Kara. Also look at getting the Spellstrike Hood and Pants.
