Unfortunately, I haven't yet gotten UVLS (10 coins, 3 normal and 7 LFR kills). The problem I'm having with the status of the next tier is that demo may be crap and unusable. I personally LOATHE destro as the rotation is extremely boring and stupid, and I'm worried that affliction will be the same.
I tried out affliction on the PTR with a ~14k haste build, and had some fun, but can't seem to understand its mechanics well enough. I'm trying to practice the Soulburn - Soul Swap thingy for re-applying dots during cooldowns or trinket procs, but find myself running out of Soul Shards even with the 4 piece. Is it just bad RnG, or is there a way to avoid having to DS to regain my soul shards during a non-execute fight?
