Re: Best spec for Battlegrounds?

Like 5-man instances, any spec will do fine, it's more important that you enjoy what you're playing. When you get into arenas you can start scrutinizing individual talent points, but it's not going to make all that much of a difference in a Battleground match.

I've run Battlegrounds as Affliction, Destro, and Demo, Destro was the most fun for me, but I'm specced Demo for arenas currently. I found I enjoyed Affliction the least in Battlegrounds because often times I had trouble killing people before their friends could rez.

There are areas of Warcraft where your talent spec is very important, Battlegrounds is not one of those - having fun in the time you spend there is.

I think the general consensus is Imp Drain Soul sucks, because your target has to be KILLED by YOU. In BGs that might not happen often. In PvE, it might not even work if your pet kills the target.


iDS now gives mana back if you or your pet kills the mob. Yes, it is useless for PvP, but THE best grinding/leveling talent. iDS makes even Destro leveling possible.

Keep in mind that the OP is looking for a leveling build that is also good for PvP; so he/she does not have 61 points to spend. Having spent 1000's of Gold in respecs and testing out varieties of just about every build while leveling; Affliction is king. No matter how much I tried to make Demo/Destro builds work, they cannot keep up with DPS/HPS of Drain tanking 3 mobs at a time without ever eating or drinking.

That does not mean that you can't PvP/level with a Demo or Destro build; lacking iDS, SiLi, Soul Siphon, and Fel Concentration just means more downtime.

Re: Best spec for Battlegrounds?

aff is the best lvling spec till you hit level 50. THen i found Demon spec with felguard is unequaled.

Not sure why you don't want to learn all parts of being a warlock??? Changing pets and specs is part of the fun...and you should know how to use all your pets. Instant summon pets in demonology is a good versitile strat...use the right pet for the right enemy.
