    Demo Trash/AOE Tactics

    hey warlocks
    I've only ever played aff or destro and am now trying out demo for pve, I have just 2 quick questions if anyone can help me out (i'll do this 'who wants to be a millionaire style' lol:

    1) On 1-2 trash mobs which usually die within a matter of seconds, do you:
    a) Immolate then Shadowbolt spam
    b) Corruption then Shadowbolt spam
    c) Immolate + Corruption then Shadowbolt
    d) CoA + Corruption then Shadowbolt
    e) Put up as many DoTs as you can
    f) Shadowbolt spam only
    g) Dude, you have no clue, let me tell you how the pros do it!

    2) On big aoe packs, assuming meta is up, do you:
    a) Immo aura + SoC spam
    b) Immo aura + RoF spam
    c) Immo aura + SoC then RoF then SoC then ROF, repeat
    d) Dude, you have no clue, let me tell you how the pros do it!

    I know it's only trash lol but was just wondering ;D

    1: F

    2: B



    Rule of thumb: If the mobs are alive > 9 seconds, cast the dot. Otherwise spam DD/AOE

    1. SB spam is your best option until the target is to last more than 14 sec (Numbers here

    2. Since SoC was buffed (damaging its primary target now) and MC no longer buffs RoF, I'd say Immolation aura + SoC is your best option
