affliction 3.1 glyphs - what will you use?
i realize nothing is really final in terms of the release of 3.1... but if it were released like, today, what glyphs are people looking at for affliction? i'm currently using Curse of Agony, SiLi, and Immolate... but with the new changes it looks like 2 of those are out for raiding. i think glyph of Haunt seems like an obvious replacement. anyone have ideas on whether the Life Tap or Shadowburn glyph (if specced into Shadowburn) would produce more dps? seems like the determining factors would be: how long a fight is (i.e. if they're below 35% for a LONG time) and how much spirit the lock has... i'm almost thinking with the new changes to the soul shard & drain soul if doing a DS execute and tossing in shadowburn just before resetting dots would be a very effective nuke (basically replenishing shards as you use them in shadowburn). anyway, i know there aren't solid numbers out there... just looking for thoughts

Re: affliction 3.1 glyphs - what will you use?
If an aff lock uses glyph of immolate in 3.1 he needs to learn whats happening. Immo will not be used by an aff lock again. UA and immo cannot be on the same target so it will be lifetap haunt and something else. |

Im thinking Haunt Life tap and curse of agony just cause the t7 4 point and life tap glyphs are tasty. |

Re: affliction 3.1 glyphs - what will you use?
Yeah UA stays the same. My Aff spec will have Lifetap, Haunt and probably Curse of Agony as the last one.

Re: affliction 3.1 glyphs - what will you use?
i think lifetap will be the best glyph for all specs. assume that choosing spi items we can gain around 400 spi easily, well geared player can reach 500+ spi. with 25 men raid buff we can go up to 6-700 spi. add a 10 second with 300 spi bonus from t7 4 pt so we can gain up to 200 sp with an avg of 170 sp for 20 sec... probabilly i will use: 1-lifetap 2-haunt 3-Curse of Agony |

Re: affliction 3.1 glyphs - what will you use?
Curse of Agony glyph is actually pretty bad, I never used it and never will. Not because I'm always the CoE lock but maths show it's barely a dps gain. I'll use the SL one (if it stays with the nw changes) instead of the immolate one. I'm still sad about the UA-immolate nerf, the last non shadow spell removed from our rotation :( Last edited by Leto; April 03, 2009 at 08:16 AM.. |
