Re: Low DPS in WotLK Heroics

may i suggest corruption instead of immo for demo locks. immo is great if you're a fire otherwise you might want to go corr for nightfall procs from the glyph.

Re: Low DPS in WotLK Heroics

Oh yeah I forgot about corruption. It seems to be a dps loss for me on trash though. But on bosses, yeah it's great.

Re: Low DPS in WotLK Heroics

Based on WWS I would say that you are definitely missing something for sure. Your incinerates should be hitting for a crap ton more then they are. Mind you I'm affliction specced in almost full 70 gear with 1550 spell damage, however my incinerates hit that hard. Therefore with that spec yours should hit harder given the talents etc. My guess is try a bit harder to make sure immolate is ALWAYS up when you are incinerating.

Re: Low DPS in WotLK Heroics

Humulos - assuming that your Armory profile is correct, I see a few issues as to why you weren't getting good DPS with other specs:

- Spell Damage is way too low if it's below 1000 in the low-70s. You're going to want to get that up to 1500-1700 at level 80. (Self-buffed, with Fel Armor.)

- I wear similar gear (was partially decked out in T4) and at 72, I had 1025 spell damage when self-buffed. I can easily put out a solid and steady 1000-1100 on boss mobs in instances or target dummies with affliction.

- I suspect the reason that you're seeing better results from Demo is that it is less reliant on Spell Damage then the other specs.
