Destruction = how heavy dmg?

OK, so I just wanted to know. I've never been fully destruction speced, and was wondering how heavy damage can you really do speced deeply into the destruction tree?
I got a mage friend who's doing 2500 regular hits and around 5000 crits all the time. Am I gonna be near this? I'm talking PvP. If I can do nearly as much damage we would be an ugly arena team.
The mage got around 750 spell damage, and I got around 650 with Fel Armor (If I'm not Demonology)

Re: Destruction = how heavy dmg?

I am not too sure. I honestly have no clue. I know when I PvP I cause some pain. I am waiting 4 my Mage friend to get to 70 to have a 3v3 team (ME Destro, Pally, and Mage Fire)

Re: Destruction = how heavy dmg?

with 650 +damage you will not get that high crits much I think. But 4k+ should be quite doable

With 1100 +damage I get 3500 crits without ruin

Hi, you won't get that hi crits except with hi damage gear and useing Soulfire, but you can do more damage with the deadly combo. Immo, Incit, Confalgate. These three move will take a huge chunk out of someone and if they are at half life forget about it. Also, you can use shadowburn if they are still hanging on to life.

you can get those crits easily with shadowbolt too, On gruul I critted for 7285 with 0/40/21 build and a few pots, so 5k is surely doable on pvp

Re: Destruction = how heavy dmg?

Well im not full destruc, but if you wanna go for full destru check the posts about Fire locks, you should concentrate on your fire damage and get more fire bonus.
So far i crit 4400 with my shadowbolt i have afflic and ruin.
i have arround 721 + spell bonus + 107 shadow damage.

Re: Destruction = how heavy dmg?

The problem with destructo locks and using them in arena is that they lack survivablity. if a rogue stun locks you from 100-0, regardless if your shadwobolts crit for 10k, you wont be able to hit a single person. remember that locks rnt mages, we thrive on dots and instant casts, not long cast time spells. in arena, a 2.5 second shadowbolt may seem to take forever especially in a 3v3 team where your most likely ffed. the reason that mages can have a 2.5k hit spell is cuz of blink, frostnova, cone of cold, all their kiting skills that locks lack. i've arenaed as all 3 specs, and have found that afflic works the best for a 5v5 team (perhaps the only viable spec for 5v5), and is somewhat less useful for a 3v3 and 2v2 team. Demo is killer for 2v2 and pretty good for 3v3, yet is gimped in 5v5...very gimped. Destructo i find is a very hard build to arena with due to lack of survivability and when i was destructo i would always die first. I arenaed with destructo for about 2 weeks before i finally gave up. 5v5, 3v3, 2v2, personally i wouldnt go destructo for any of the three. 2v2 is the only viable destructo spec arena imo cuz you can at least try to CC one dps and beat down the second dps.

all in all, firelocks and locks in general arent as desired in 5v5 teams and it makes me sad.
