All Warlock 3v3
I was playing around with some team comps in my head, while doing yard work, and I thought it would be fun to have an all-Warlock 3v3, one of each Spec. After thinking through how that would best play out, I thought of an all-Destro specced team. Imagine 3 Destro locks, 2 with Felhunters and 1 with the Succubus...now imagine charging out of the box towards the other team and catching them all in a Shadowfury (if you can), and nuking one down before the other team has much of a chance to react. I thought of many different comps, (RMP, DRW, SRL, etc...) just having some mental fun, lol...but let's take a typical healer/melee/caster team and play it out ideally: Lock 1: (Target Melee) Shadowfury (ideally catching the whole team) > Immo > Conflag > CB... Lock 2: (same target) Immo > CoE > CB > Shadowfury > Conflag Lock 3: (same target) Immo > CB > Conflag...(save Shadowfury for when necessary) Now, ideally you were able to catch the whole team with that, now the damage would be enough to insta-gib anyone. Figure 1/3 of the CB will crit for a modest 9k (remember the CoE) and 2/3 of the Conflag should crit for about 8k... The damage on that target should be about: Shadowfury x2 ~ 5k Immo x3 ~ 6k + 3k for 3 ticks (1 tick each) ~ 9k CB x3 ~ 18k Conflag x3 ~ 20k Total = 52k damage in about 5 seconds! And if the healer was not in the Shadowfury, and was not chain silenced by the two Felhunters, and was not Seduced, and was not stunned by the 3rd lock's Shadowfury or Deathcoiled by any one of the 3 locks...and somehow was able to pull off a Pain Suppression (or whatever) and a heal or two, 52k damage in 5 seconds is a lot to handle to say the least. And if the ideal didn't happen (which would likely be the case if facing the same team more than once), you still have great CC (for a short fight) and amazing burst potential. I woul say to try to catch the melee with the Shadowfury(s)and burst him down while sending one Felhunter to silence the caster and the other to silence the healer (followed by Seduce until DR). Ideally the melee would have been dropped before any lock had to use a Deathcoil, and then can Deathcoil the healer (when Seduce runs it's course) and kill the caster. Game, set, match. Point. =P Obviously this team has its weaknesses, but is played right can be a fun team with some significant potential. PLUS IT IS AN ALL-WARLOCK TEAM, (which = BADASS!)  If there were a couple people from the Den who wanted to switch over to my realm, *hint, hint*, I would name the team 'The Warlock's Den' ...with Akasha's permission of course!  (if not, maybe 'Den of Warlocks' like my wallpaper thread is entitled...or maybe a l33t name like 'D3N 0F W4R70CK5', LOL.)

Re: All Warlock 3v3
I have always thought it would be a fun thing to do, but can't leave my current team to try;( I would love for some people to do it and maybe post some youtube vids on it

Re: All Warlock 3v3
you need to add immolates to your rotation for the conflags. factor in cc from the oppostion and that 52k in 5 seconds soon becomes 30k in 7 seconds. nice idea tho, would love to have two locks mates give it a shot. |

 Also, yes of course the opposing team's CC needs to be accounted for, my original example was a "best case" scenario, catching them all in the same CC with the first Shadowfury, and when that ends or someone trinkets immediately cast another Shadowfury, etc.
