3.1 Mana issues with 0/41/30

I have been 30/41/0 for awhile but recently respec'd into 0/41/30 but found it hard to maintain mana or health but for a short time. I was wondering what kind of spell rotation are people using for this spec to maintain health and mana since your constantly life tapping for more mana. I have read several threads on suggested spell rotation but still end of with same problem. Also, I didn't really see much of a dps improvement by switching to the fg/emb spec over the sl/fg specc.

Thanks,

Jason

for pve I take it? You should be able to tap enough to never run out of mana with out worring about your health. If you are running out of health than chances are your healers are letting you down.

I'd cut the healers a little slack here. If they're failing to heal you on stuff you've got on farm, then yes it is a problem. If it's a progression situation, they may be saving all their mana and cooldowns for the tanks. When I have my healing hat on, I try to heal warlocks from their life-taps, but it's low on my priority list after:
- tanks
- other healers
- people at risk of dying for any reason

if I have coooldowns and mana left after that, you get a heal

Re: Mana issues with 0/41/30

(As an affliction warlock, I try very hard to lifetap right after casting Haunt. But due to the travel time of the spell, it seems like my healers always manage to slip in a quick heal on me.)

Don't depend on healing from healers to keep your mana up. Do take advantage of situations where healers are about to drop a big group heal that would overheal you. (Basically, if you lifetap right before that, you'll lessen the amount of overheal and not tax the healers.)

Some healers will tend to you a bit more if you're at the top of the DPS chart, don't stand in poo, keep them soul stoned, seduce things that are attacking them, or use your Death Coil to quick fear things off of them.
