Re: Decent Leveling / PVP Build 42/12/0 for a 63?

I run a build very similar to yours, but w/ my extra 12 points are in Demonology. This gives me plenty of stamina, I DP my pet or life tap when low, and SL to regen health. I run w/ a destro Lock and he is always drinking, while I am off to the next Mob. I can grind like mad, and knowing which curse to throw on whom is a big part of my casting. Also, Mana conservation is done by not tossing the full load of DOTs either.

I have adjusted my style by sending my pet in and tossing DOTs, then retarget DOT and add Curse of Agony if I think I am going to ignore it and move on. After I toss out a few spells I mana tap or DL, SB then SL to top off health. I can generally handle 2-3 mobs my level or slightly higher and end w/ a fairly high amount of health and mana. More than that I will have HOT/Fear and bandage or SL one Mob. Generally Mob#1 is dead and pet is picking up the slack. I will most likely have to pop a potion or HS, and/or do some eating and drinking once a big fight is done but I will survive.

In PVP I use my Imp on passive, drain his mana run and DOT run and DOT. Watch for defensive opportunities and HOT/fear when required. Occationally I will use the Felhound but I tend to get picked out quick. So the Imp works real well. The fat SB in the face tends to draw attention too so I try to finish off folks w/ the SB.

All of this really depends too on your spell damage too. In affliction the higher the better, toss Shadow Ward when fighting casters.

My Grind sequence goes like this: I will send in pet, toss applicable Curse (melee' vs caster), UA, SL, Corr, DP/LT, SB or Target lather/rinse w/ a DL tossed in to replenish health. The big thing is to not run low on mana or you are toast.

Due to the Voidwalker being a slow mana regenerator I favor the Felhound, but I will run the void if I need to generate a bit of aggro to pull off of me so I can throw DOTs.
