Have any of you tried it yet with the new haste changes?
I'm am curious as to how the DPS is shaping up compared to the destro raiding spec.
I don't have a lock to check myself but am curious as I heard it was sexy.

I've been playing with it...and just from raiding, it is a big DPS boost. I am now doing nearly the Damage and DPS as Destro locks (whereas before they were always 1.5k-2k dps ahead of me). Elietist Jerks has Affliction as the current (T9 gear) top DPS spec, FWIW.
There are some bugs with the duration of the corruption as refreshed by Haunt. I'm still trying to figure out why, but I have seen Corruption fall off a target. Additionally, at extremely high haste values it may not be possible to keep Corruption refreshed by Haunt alone (due to Haunt's CD).
Overall, its a boost. But a little buggy.

Bump, I'm curious.

they changed(changing) everlasting affliction so that shadowbolt and drain soul will also refresh corruption.. so corruption should never fall off. and yes it's top dps spec currently

is there any change on the rotation? what is it exactly the spells we're using now?
I'm curious on this as well, main is a rogue and I'm just starting to raid on my lock. Boss fights my current rotation is - CoE, SB, Haunt, Corruption, Unstable Aff, sb fillers until haunt/UA need redotted. Sound about right? I've got 4pc t9 (1/2 con 1/2 triumph) and can hit 5k raid buffed if I don't have to move, about 4k on the dummies.

Just FYI, if you have a moonkin or unholy DK in your raid you don't need to use CoE since they can put up Earth and Moon or Ebon Plaguebringer, respectively. You can throw up CoD or CoA instead.
