SB or Insinerate.

Well, lets asume the warlock have the same spell damage on shadow & fire, and he is deep destro (bane + ISB + embel, etc...)..... The damage caused by his SB is more than the Insinerate, but if the target have Imo, the fire dd damage is bigger.
My question is if in instances & raids you should use Imo + Insinerate or Imo + SB (With ISB)? Always remembering that Insinerate have a lower mana cost than SB.

Shadowbolt.

It has a higher spell damage coefficient, and it gives you 20% extra shadow damage on all our your (and your raid's) DoTs and shadowbolts for 4 hits or 12 seconds.

Actually..I thought ISB did not increase the damage on shadow DoTs...am I wrong? I thought it was only for non-periodic damage.

It increases all shadow damage, but only DD spells consume a "charge".
