Which two glyphs to use as affliction

I really can't decide between...

Glyph of Curse of Agony
Glyph of Curse of Agony - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft

Glyph of Corruption
Glyph of Corruption - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft

Glyph of Shadowbolt
Glyph of Shadow Bolt - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft

or

Glyph of Unstable Affliction
Glyph of Unstable Affliction - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft


This is for a full affliction build, this build here:

I'm not sure which would provide the largest DPS increases. If anyone has any ideas or knows which are best, let me know!

Re: Which two glyphs to use as affliction

I would go for corruption. At level 70 I will either take the agony or the sl one. However I have heard that agony was not available in the patch.
Don't understand why use unstable affliction glyph since with bane UA cast is already 1.5 and I don't thik the glyph will reduce the cast under the GCD.

I'm leaning towards corruption + shadowbolt.

I got Glyph of Corruption and Glyph of soulstone. 300% increase means the SS'ed person rezzes with 11600 health

For raiding affliction, this is the current best glyph combo. Corruption offers that extra nightfall proc, and the Shadow Bolt glyph reduces your mana consumption for all the SB spam you'll be tossing out. With 2 talent points in Nightfall, and a Glyph of Corruption, Nightfall is proccing constantly, so you will need to mitigate the mana demands all those Shadow Bolts are imposing.

Re: Which two glyphs to use as affliction

You're forgetting Glyph of Siphon Life - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft

until the expansion is ehrer and once I reach 80, I'll be rolling with SL & Corruption.

When I hit 80 I'll add UA

I would say this because I use all three of these in PvE and PvP whereas Curse of Agony I only use in PvP and when grinding.

I almost never use shadow bolt...

Sadly, you must forget about Glyph of Siphon Life, along with many marvelous glyphs until the expansion, because it's made with Ink of the Sea from pigments from Northrend plants and that ink recipe is taught in Northrend.

Edit: You need Ink of the Sea for Glyph of Curse of Agony and Glyph of Unstable Affliction too! So Glyph of Shadowbolt is arguably your best filler choice.

Re: Which two glyphs to use as affliction

Glyph of UA is mainly for pvp, and it does reduce the base cast of the spell to 1.3, haste then reduces it further after that.

Re: Which two glyphs to use as affliction

i'm using glyph of corruption, glyph of shadow bolt and glyph of drain soul. I guess Glyph of UA is not until expansion?
