How much haste for Affliction?

[Deleted]

Hello,

I have a doubt about this. What is the minimum haste do you need for affliction in order that this spec wins over Destro for example??

Thanks

There is no fixed minimum value of haste that you must have.

Both Affli and Destro prios Haste above Crit/Mastery..

Affli to Infinity (pretty much)
Destro to dunno, sim it.

But as Sakpoth said, even with 0 haste affli would prolly still be ""best"".

For PVP yes, for PvE destro is still way better imo.

"way better" was a big overstatement.. And I would guarantee that if you have similar skills with both speccs, Affli would beat destro 90% of the fights.

Well i would still say that destro beast affi on Magmatron or magmaw.

Affliction with Drain Life filler is the highest DPS spec for Warlocks right now. This is according to Simcraft. Of course, Demo and Destro can provide more utility on certain fights. I've recently switch to it from Demo and find it far more mobile and far more effective on fights. It can't hold a candle to Demo's AoE though, but then again, nothing can.

Here's the latest EJ discussion on Affliction Locks, including what haste values you need for more DoT ticks. Check it out:

Balance druids won't be able to in 4.2 however. Their AoE DPS is getting gutted like a freshly caught fish.
