    Immolation aura cooldown.

    There's always one thing that goes through my mind when my immolation aura gets off cooldown and that's, should I use it again? There's always a 4-5 seconds left on meta when it does come off cooldown so I was wondering if it's a dps loss or gain to use it twice even though the second time would only be a few seconds

    I am yet to understand why both demon form abilities have such stupid CD times.

    if u use it as soon as it comes off c/d and u use it as soon as u pop meta u should have 6 seconds left. yes its a dps increase to do it.

    If you are able to get 4+ ticks out of immolation aura, it does more damage than a shadow bolt.

    Simcraft action priorities currently use it only once. I haven't tested using it twice, but delaying it to wait for procs seems to give a decent increase and this is how I've been using it in game.

    ----
    I just tested it and I'm not finding an increase when using it twice. It's around a 60(50) dps loss to use it twice and lower in the action priority. It's around a 125(110) dps loss to use it twice and higher in the action priority. This was tested in the BIS T12H (and in () my gear at 382ilvl.)

    As far as I know it is a small dps loss on single target and a small dps boost on multiply targets.
    So only use it for a second time if you are able to hit at least 2 targets with it.
