Pardon me to jump into your discussion, I am considering, with the 3.1, to evolve towards a demo/destru spec as you (don't know yet if I do the 51/20 or 41/30, I got different logical and clear advices in a thread I posted) are, could you explain to the casual player I am why spamming Incinerate instead of Shadowbolt once the dots are applied ?

Does Emberstorm make Incinerate that better than SB as long Immolate is running ? With guildies we calculated that raw dps, if you have 5 points in Bane, is still in favor of Shadowbolt versus Immolate/Incinerate, as long you have at least 139 spell power, he :-) We also calculated that -but this will change now with the 3.1- contrary to a popular belief, Soul Fire is less dps than Shadowbolt if you have Bane and at least 973 spell power.

Here the stats to illustrate our calcs :


("Fléau" means Bane, "base" means without Bane, "SB" is Shadowbolt, "SF" is obviously Soulfire).

Well, to summarize my question, is Emberstorm the point which makes Incinerate more dpsing than SB ? So I assume a 51/20 build would keep SB as main nuke after dot refreshs ?

I hope you are not offended I trolled a little bit your original topic about the macro
