Warlock Specs

What DPS do you get from that spec (without raid buffs) ?
 
I get 3K dps when doing AOE pulls and about 2K dps on a single target but my gear is not fully epic and im not yet hit capped.

I will test on a dummy to see what dps I can achieve
 
I was doing about 3k DPS in Naxx 10 man with that spec.
 
Felguard always, the raid buff you get when he crits is great. Rotation was corr, CoA and SB. On boss fights I used CoD in place of CoA.
 
LOL I made a mistake my spec is actually 0/50/21

I am specced into Demonic Empathy do you think its better to spec into Demonic Pact instead ? and I use CoE is this good or bad?
 
Take both DE and DP if you can. DP gives that nice buff to the whole raid. I see CoE more of a destro spec but I may be wrong on that.
 
Crowly, if you have a Boomkin or DK with Ebon Plague, COE is useless (they don't stack).

I am currently running 0/41/30 and get about 2.2k DPS on dummies. Where a FG is not viable, I keep my imp out. Rotation is a simple CoA, Corruption, Immolate, Incinerate. I don't use CoD because it's scaling is terrible. I am getting roughly the same numbers my T6 Lock used to get for that spell. Pity because if Afflocks could use CoD, it would simplify the rotation a bit.

I am keen to respec to a full Destro build (with a pimped out imp) in light of the new Conflag glyph. The Destro rotation would be something like CoA, Corruption, Immolate, Conflag, Chaos Bolt, Incinerate, Incinerate. This spec will be 0/18/53. It probably needs tweaking so don't take my word for it. I still want to test the difference between Fire and Brimstone and Imp CoA.
 
I managed to get 5k on patchwerk with 53/1/17 the other day on Naxx 25 with the imp as my pet.

But since the patch hit (which apparently fixes the felhound bugging out) I've gone over to 54/0/17 which while I haven't tested in a raid environment yet pulls more dps on the dummies than 53/1/17. Not by much but still an increase.

Just some thoughts: I might take the extra point out of Eradication and put it in Improved Drain Soul if I find I have threat issues. As the 2nd point in eradication isn't as NB as the first.

What is your rotation?
 
What is your rotation?

My boss fight rotation is:

SB->Haunt->UA->Immolate->CoA->Corruption->SL then SB filler and refresh dots while keeping haunt up (keeping up haunt is the mos NB part). Then at 25% I drop immolate from my rotation and start Drain Soul executing. I've seen 11k drain ticks before :D

Glyphs used were: Immolate, Siphon Life and Imp

now that I'm using Felpup though I've swopped Imp for CoA (since the patch it's quite good apparently). Still have to test it out though.

Pretty much what he said. However, I use Immolate, CoA, and Corruption glyphs. EDIT: Just to clarify, do NOT clip dots, ever. Only clip Haunt. Rather than clipping 0.5sec off a remaining dot, put in another SB.

Last night on thaddius I reached 6000 dps, our warrior managed to barely scratch 7000.

And Drain Soul was ticking for 18k :)
