@Thomas Lewis: I can't answer your post directly, because I basically don't know what's up with this google+ thingie. Whatever You want to collect and keep your embers until one of the following situations apply: - One (or more) strong trinkets procced (for chaos bolt, only int, crit or mastery proccs are interesting) or Dark Soul is up. - You already have four embers (you should try not to cap your embers, therefore you should basically get a chaos bolt off as soon as you have 35-38 emberbits) - The Boss has a phase in which he takes more damage (or you deal more). You should, however, save your cooldowns for such phases. Basically, you should see the chaos bolt spell as a short dps-cooldown, which you want to stack with other cooldowns as much as possible. :)
why does this video have more than 12k views? :o Really looking forward to WoD, because I'll be able to upload videos when actual guilds kill them, and not two months after that. :D
nice work man, i've just started playing warlock after 6 years of melee, im not sure if im supposed to stack embers or use them as i get them? any advice?
I don't really know, to be honest. I used font damage changer with another font a few months ago, but after I reinstalled WoW on my new computer, I wasn't able to find that one anymore and so I kept font damage changer installed without any font to change. The font you can see in the video might be the standard dmg-font of fdc or even WoW itself. Sorry for not knowing :s
Very nice man I'm a destro lock 558 making normal progression with my guild pulling 200-240k single target dps right now, and almost always top of the charts. Later down the progression line do we start to see classes beating us, and/or competing? I noticed the mage in first, but start to fall behind later in the fight. Also what would you say would be the best single target trinket choices? Another thing what ilvl would be a good one to start dipping my toes into heroics?
Hey. I'm sorry for the late answer - wasn't that active the last week. At the higher itemlevels, there aren't many classes that are able to compete with the warlock's overall-damage. Warlock is the first choice when it comes to fights, that contain any sort of adds and/or AoE-situations. Only on single target encounters classes like the feral druid might be able to compete with our damage, when the fight isn't outgeared and therefore too short, because the affliction warlock's burst is pretty devastating. In the end, the warlock's damage is significantly influenced by his itemlevel, because the gear-scaling at this class is kinda gross. At encounters like the sha of pride, which contains a lot of AoE, other classes can only compete if they get extremely lucky with the buff. When it comes to the trinkets, I'd advice you to use kardris' toxic totem (kor'kron dark shamans) and the purified bindings of immerseus (immerseus) as a destruction warlock and swap the kardris' toxic totem with the black blood of y'shaarj (garrosh hellscream) trinket if you plan on playing demonology or affliction. The first few heroic encounters should be killeable with an itemlevel around 550 or 555. I think that was the itemlevel we had when we killed the first few bosses (but the sha of pride was not among them). Since this instance is now open to all the crossrealm stuff, you can definitely look for a raid, that is going to kill some bosses of heroic if you want to do that. Your itemlevel should be ok. :)
Sorry I'm answering late and from an alt account. I do still play, mostly mythic+ but warlock again. I've never really played on private servers as I'm not that interested in doing "old" content that I've done before, but I'd definitely take a look because I'd like to play MoP warlock once again. Those where the days man.
thanks for the replies mate :) slowly seeing an increase in dps! warlocks are much more fun than feral druids that's for sure!

whats the addon that tells you your trinket procs under your player bar? nice music btw
It's called Extracd. You can find it here:
www.curse.com/addons/wow/extracd :)
I do more DPS as affliction than destro.
Highest destro crit is 1.7million
You're not playing your destro right then.
Affliction is pvp focused
whats the font of the numbers called?

Why da hell are you crit-ing for 2 million damage on a chaos bolt? Must be since you are a warlock xD great videos! Keep it up Subbed!
Haha, thank you a lot, man! :D
Do you still play WoW? And what are thoughts on private MoP servers haha
