My apologies if you're reading this before I finished typing, I accidently hit enter.
I have a question regarding the required hit for a Gnome Affliction Warlock, like myself. I have read at numerous locations that being hit capped (15%) is actually a DPS loss for an affliction warlock, but yet I'm also being told that you should always be hit capped to remove the large RNG factor. I looked at other warlocks of top guilds and it seems that they follow the belief that being hit capped isn't necessary. I ran numerous sims and every time it seems to support not being hit capped.
When opening an encounter is it better to cast Haunt and wait for it to be applied before Soulburn + Soul Swapping on the remainder of your DoTs? Do the DoTs update on the fly, similar to how the Doomguard is supposed to operate now?
Thanks in advance!
