Re: Making the Aff. Rotation Less of a Monster

My casting sequence:

Haunt
SL
UA
Corruption

Before this, I usually open with a CoE since I have Malediction, to give my dots an even bigger boost. And I've arranged the action bar, so that I'm firing off an instant cast after the longer spells(Haunt and UA) in order to avoid the usual wait time you'd get when casting two instants in succession due to global cooldown.

First choice is Haunt, as it works as a great opener and boost every dot I cast afterwards.
Second comes SL, because of it's healing and that it's a dot that needs to be up on the target as long as possible in order to be mana effective.
Third is UA, for reasons mentioned above regarding instant casts and global cooldown.
Fourth and last is Corruption, as it's the cheapest dot with the shortest duration and can be maintained on the target indefinitely thanks to Everlasting Affliction.

After this, a Life Tap is enough to regain the mana spent and finish with a SB(or more if required).
On most regular mobs, one SB is enough to kill the mob, triggering haunt to return and healing me for the HP I lost when using Life Tap

Results: Full HP and Mana, ready to take on the next mob^^
