Comment: Choose Soulleech over backlash, like the survival factor of the extra health you get back rather than a extra incinerate. With 2.25 cast time I gane some extra damage but the backlash still procs a GCD, which maked me choose some healing over it. Just my preference, some would probably choose to have that extra chance of triggering an extra incinerate. Didnt choose to go for nether protection, Illidan is up ahead and we have speculated a bit about having me tanking since Im fire, coflagrating a immolation to get aggro then spam searing pain would get me decent head start, especially if I can keep the imp saced for some extra fire damage.
PvE Play style and Requirements of build:
Switched from shadow destro to fire destro to get some variation and to save some soul shards. The constant soul shard hunting and all the work extra work around the raids killed some of the fun. Plus the one button spam started getting on my nerves. Im currently in a BT/MH guild and we are soon about to start progress raiding Illidan, where the firespecc would be a bit gimped due to the elemental killing. We also lack a fire mage, all our mages are still arcane. This means I dont have a scorch debuff up which is another set back to the specc atm causing me to missing out on 15% extra fire damage.
I like the immolate doting with the specc and the incinerate spam do look nice. Highest crits are in the area of 6000 up to 6500 if I get real lucky, with avarage hits in the span between 2800-3100. My gear aint as good as for shadow destro, think im about 40 spell damage behind or somewhat. Still unsure whether I should go for more haste for incinerate spam or crit to get as much DPS out as possible from the specc.
A fire mage's scorch debuff would give about 900 more damage for each crit (counting 6000 x0.15). Feels like a great damage loss not to raid with a fire mage.
I like the spell rotation in the firespecc: Immolate, 6xincinerate, LT (if needed) refresh Immolate and so on. The specc also feel a bit more mana efficient and the faster cast speed on incinerate (2.25 vs 2.50 for SB without haste) feels good.
Still ending up top five at the damage meters, but have lost the top position since the respecc.
To sum up the questions I have from this massive wall of text:
- IS it worth beeing fire destro without a fire mage?
- Does the specc look okay, or have I missed something
- Is it worth giving up the top position in the damage charts just because Im a bit bored with soulshard farming?
- What about a fire lock as Illidan tank?
- Haste or crit? What stat is the most important for a fire lock?
PvP Play style and Requirements of build:
"Not Applicable", prefer deep affliction for PvP
