Compendum for the new Warlock raider...
So you want to start raiding… We have a lot of the same questions pop up on these forums. Many that I frequently see are asked by people that are either just starting raiding or not very far into there raiding careers. While pretty much all of these questions are answered on these forums, I don’t think we have anywhere that a new to raiding warlock can go and have most of his questions answered in 1 shot. So I figured I would start a post where we can put in all of the basic... |

Re: Compendum for the new Warlock raider...
i understood ... just thought it should be mentioned that those stats are your goal and helps know how to accumulate gear as you go ... without a goal in mind you end up with a hodge podge of gear because you and i both know that people will read that and think afflic must be better forever because he didnt say any different |

Re: Compendum for the new Warlock raider...
Hrm, I apologize for that post then. I guess I just misunderstood what you were trying to say ... I took it as you saying there was never any right cast order or what not. And yadda yadda. Yay for reading when overtired ... O.o **EDIT** Okay, so I got curious about the siphon life thing, and decided to really go read into it instead of keeping just experimenting and having the apparently wrong opinion. I usually do not have time to read, but I made some more time to read up on it. And I found that I was wrong (as was the friend who told me to do it) and SL should be cast also. My damage meters had showed an increase in my dps, but I think I got caught up in the dps aspect rather than the actual overall damage out (which is what affliction is for, don't ask my why I looked at dps, I'm banging my head for that one). So, I was wrong, I admit it. And now I'm really curious to see if my overall damage output is more than before. So if we could totally disregard most of what I said before, I'd feel much less like an idjut. Last edited by Aloysia; February 01, 2008 at 05:31 PM.. Reason: Fixing information |

Re: Compendum for the new Warlock raider...
Very nice guild. Answered a lot of questions I had. I've got a couple more that may be added: What are minimum stats for starting heroics/ZA? Mostly concerning spell damage/hit. Currently, specced Affliction, 41 hit rating(not counting 5 points in suppression), 655 shadow damage. I lnow it's not high enough, just want a goal to shoot for. |

As for ZA, there sems to be some disagreement here. I personally believe ZA is more difficult than the T4 content (gruul and mag) and at least as hard the early bosses in TK/SSC. So, IMO if your guild is just coming out of kara you probably wont be able to clear ZA. now the bear boss and the bird boss you could probably take down pretty easily, but I dont know how much farther you would progress with just kara gear. When we first cleared ZA (just a couple weeks ago actually) most of my gear was still craftable or badge reward items (we get really nice gear available to us before we ever step foot into a raid!). I have the t4 shoulders for the +hit on bosses and gruuls dagger. other than that, its all non-raid items. so coming out of kara you, as a warlock, could probably be geared enough for it, but im not sure about the rest of your group. |
