  2. Your title is misleading! Affliction is strong but not meta. If you're saying that affliction is meta then you are not an affliction. Your guide though is very accurate but even if you use affliction's full potential it is no way near the level of druids and mages. Come on let's be real here! @Kalamazi great video very disappointing title you know that many locks will click on this because they have issues with the spec. 👎

  3. Guys , you might consider making a short PvP oriented section for each class alongside your current major sections like Talents/Stats etc. I am sure it will draw some fresh viewers. Otherwise Good Job

  4. As a warlock main, aff atm, i can say that is a simple spec to start but its incredibly hard to min max ! Amazing noob friendly video, no need to make stuff harder ! Perfect for all the starters

  5. Affliction damage windows revolve around soul rot and setting everything up to rapture in that window. PS is typically used with soul rot, but if you have to use PS out of sync with SR, you don't spend all your shards, just a few. You want to have as many shards as possible and as many dots on the target(s) as possible before you start rapture spam. You should 100% be aiming to set up these damage windows by refreshing your dots/haunt/SE stacks and stacking buffs (using trinkets, procs, pots etc.) before casting soul rot and then dumping shards on rapture. Your rotation out of rapture windows, every 1 min, is maintaining dots and SE, and only spending shards to not cap.

    Mastery will sim as your best stat by far for a long time, but there will be a point, depending on gear, where haste starts to become better, then vers, at least for single target. A good guideline is mastery>haste for single target; haste>mastery for multitarget. BUT YOU SHOULD SIM!

    Overall good guide, as usual, just a few things I thought needed some clarification. Love you bros!

  6. I have been playing a lock since legion and the rotation for affliction is pretty simple but maintaining dots on multiple mobs is the part that gives me grey hairs, single target is really easy but it still requires you line up your cool downs to really max out your dps

  7. Very nice! I am still waiting for destro warlock guide though… That is the one true love! Nothing is more beautiful then a chaos bolt in this game, even if it is nerfed to the ground and the talents were thrown in a blender…
