As for afflic being dead? Nah, always a great leveling spec, and still decent raid DPS.

It's not decent. It's great, if you're not a total birdbrain.

Also, your replenish spec has only 1 point in ISL, so you're basically wasting 4 point for a sub par replenishment. If you go replenish max out ISL and put 1 point in Destructive reach.

On a more important note: I see everyone blindly going destro/replenish because simcaft says it's the spec with highest damage output on a stand and nuke fight. In Ulduar, you hardly get the chance to stand and nuke to the point of going oom. There's always at least one ablity that forces you to move. This is your chance to LT without it being responsible for lower DPS. This makes the spec with Suppression more interesting and an actual DPS increase considering you only need to itemize towards 11%.

So yes people, these simcrafts are useful for us to generate an idea of the spec's potential performance. It's up to us to put it into context.

I found Ulda to be the oposite, for me a nukespec is far superior to affe due to most fights having annoying resetphases, XT, RZR, Kol, among others.

poor spec indeed. You either go full replenishment or you dont go it at all.
