Im only a 49 UD lock but I find afflic way better than dest.

Dest only owns in duels and arenas due to the cooldowns of some of the spells (shadow fury has a 20 sec cooldown). They do deal high dps but for a major cost of mana. They are very fun no doubt about that. I had speced with this to make mad gold in duels.

But Afflic is also fun. It is the best for BG, soloing, raids, and if used smart, then arenas/duels too. Im way too lazy to explain y but the DoTs are practically evil. I always laugh when I die in a BG and I would watch how the allys i cursed will die 2-5 sec after because of my DoTs.

They burn mana fast too due to all of the constant instant casts that are being thrown about but I turned my self into a health stealer with imp Soul Siphon.

Of course Im not hardcore afflic. My talents currently are 41/20/0

the demonology seems like an enhancement spec and in order to survive and let my enemies die from DoTs i need all the stam, armor, and int i need. The 5/5 on unholy power gives my pets good attacks so even more DPS is added against an enemy.

All in a nut shell each talent has their ups and downs.


Still LV 49 and hit my record at 479.8 DPS. I had to give everything I got ; )
