Heavy destro spec

So I recently hit 60, and soon I plan on doing a lot of pvp with my guild. Right now I am sm/ruin build right now, but I plan on re-speccing heavy into the destro tree. We will be doing lots of Alterac Valley, and so my role will be to do a lot of aoe and burst damage, with little time for dotting. Here is my idea

Affliction- 0 points

Demonology- 7 points
Demonic Embrace- 5 points- pretty self-explanatory here
Improved Healthstone- 2 points- gives me an extra couple of seconds to get in that conflag or dc before I die

Destruction- 44 points

Improved Shadowbolt- 5 pnts- meh, better than cataclysm

Bane- 5 pnts- Again, self explanatory

Aftermath- 5 pnts- Basically, when I use rain of fire along with the other locks, I think the extra chance to daze will help slow guys, thus allowing for more aoe damage from the rest of my groups

Devastation- 5 pnts- standard

Shadowburn- 1 point same

Destructive Reach- 2 pnts- extra range for aoe

Intensity/Pyroclasm- 4 pnts- Basically the same reason I put points in aftermath, chance to stop the alliance from escaping from the scenario of all the aoe going on

Ruin- 1 pnt- yeah

At this point I have so many points invested in destro, that I just took full points in the remaining talents, and also cuz I love conflag

Basically the whole scenario for the build is to help out those awkward standoffs that always happen in AV, when the mages are using ae/blastwave/blizz, and me and the other couple of locks are using rof.

Thoughts? Comments? Suggestions from more experienced players? Anything is greatly appreciated.

Re: Heavy destro spec

Although cataclysm isn't that great, for a full destro build I think you will get more use out of it than imp shadowbolt. Full destro you will most likely be using Conflag, Immolate, and Searing Pain, not Shadowbolt.

Re: Heavy destro spec

Yes, cataclysm isn't great but when you are constantly spamming Immolate, Conflagrate, and Searing Pain like PeePeeBritches said every bit of mana in the ends helps. I myself am heavy in Destruction (19/0/32) and do all those on a regular basis, and it works wonderfully in AV.
