Demon Armor vs Fel Armor

With the new changes, it's time for a new debate.

Demon Armor (Rank 8)
31% of Base Mana
Instant cast
Protects the caster, increasing armor by 950, and increasing the amount of health generated through spells and effects by 20%. Only one type of Armor spell can be active on the Warlock at any time. Lasts 30 min.

Fel Armor (Rank 4)
28% of Base Mana
Instant cast
Surrounds the caster with fel energy, increasing spell power by 180 plus additional spell power equal to 30% of your Spirit. In addition, you regain 2% of your maximum health every 5 sec. Only one type of Armor spell can be active on the Warlock at any time. Lasts 30 min.

Re: Demon Armor vs Fel Armor

With the same gear I had before the changes, I am breaking over 1000 spell damage marker and always at full mana and health. I don't have to worry about draining the life when life tapping for mana.

New demon armor makes me last a lot longer against melee in PvP. And with the affliction coupled with DC:T (Only spec I see that brings an inch of power since it buys time for healing) I see it being the only spec in arena.

Re: Demon Armor vs Fel Armor

Does demon armor get the 600% bonus from metamorphosis:

6 x (2k base + 1k demon armor) = 18k

or

6 x 2k base +1k demon armor = 13k

I would find out myself but i'm aff

My base ac at 70 = 1219
With Demon6 = 2077

Meta = 8533
With Demon6 = 9391

So no, no dice. Would be nice though....

Probably has, but things have changed with Wrath of the Lich King, rendering those discussions outdated and inapplicable.

Demon Armor just screams "I'm awesome for PvP" at me.

Re: Demon Armor vs Fel Armor

With the upgraded spl damage values and the fact that it increases spl damage based on your total spirit I'm topping 1400+ spl damage as a level 75 Warlock. To me thats freaking awsome. 1400 spell damage will take you places in the world of warcraft. I wouldnt think to switch to demon armor once. No question fel armor is going to give you the biggest benefit.

Re: Demon Armor vs Fel Armor

Actually this already has been discussed since the changes, but I haven't done a search to link the thread.

Basically DA = PvP and FA = PvE, though I'm sure some people can find exceptions to those rules.

Incidentally Demonic Aegis is now slightly more attractive (not that I would have passed it in the demo tree anyway).

Sometimes if My health is running low I'll cast demon armor, cannibalize, and switch back to fel armor.
