Aaaah thank's guys!
I haven't actually done that part yet. The horrors of having to do dailies or heroics for valors is keeping me a bit behind.
Evralia said earlier, about 2 pages ago, that multidotting all 3 protectors in ToES with only Corruption is a potential DPS loss. Atleast that's how I understood it.
If this is the case, and a DPS loss occurs on the one protector that needs to die, would it still be worth multidotting Corruption and hope for more Nightfall procs?
Havn't played Affliction much but Soul Shards are hard to come by it seems.
I've seen information that crit on dots updates dynamically on many sites, including EJ. That would be inconsistent, so I decided to test it.
Destruction, naked character with 1,78% crit chance.
Test 1: Applied Immolate to 6 target dummies, activated Dark Soul - ticks did not crit.
Test 2: Activated Dark Soul, applied Immolate to 6 target dummies, cancelled DS buff - ticks critted a lot.
Conclusion: crit on dots behaves the same way as mastery, haste and int. It does not update dynamically.
Edit: Another test showed that critical damage is updated dynamically (metagem/warrior banner).

For me, I noticed a DPS upgrade by keeping a corruption up one ONE target during the FIRST ADD ONLY.
After the first protector is dead, you have the corrupted water wich gives you unlimited shards so keeping corruption is useless.
Damage done on that one target, my bad for being unclear. I get more haunt uptime so you could say it's a lucky shot.
If you want to Wol-Whore, DOT ALL THE THINGS !
Someday I will say that too !
But for now, sharing knowledge is always usefull... Yeah I'm trying to make me feels better about my guild.
What do you mean with "corrupted water giving unlimited shards"? Am I missing something?
Note that I havn't played Affliction on any boss yet. I think.
Doh! Of course... I'm such a noob. Thanks!
I've asked over on the UI forum section, but no reply in the few days since it was posted, so I'll ask here since it's relatively warlock related.
Does anyone know of an addon similar to (or a way of configuring) shadowed unit frames, but purely for boss frames? I love it's dot tracking functionality for boss frames off in the corner on fights like Will, but dislike it as my standard none-boss frames.
I'd love to know that as well. I like my current UF, but the default Boss frames are sincerely lacking.
I have a quick question:
I have been trying to set up power auras to show when I have procs off my trinkets, weapon, etc. However, I must be having one heck of a derp moment. I cannot get them to show up. A friend mentioned that PA hasn't been working properly. If that is so, what would be an alternative addon? I hear weakauras doesn't do justice, so now I am just frustrated and confused.
If PA is working alright, does anyone have a copy of how I would set up to show procs like in Evralia's videos? Or even a blonde moment walk through? I had this all set up months ago, but had to re-format my computer. I thought I had saved all my files, but again... derp herp, I saved the wrong ones.
I appreciate the help.
make sure to download PA from the website and not from curse, when i can log onto wow ill export my PA for tracking DoTs for you and you can then tweak them to your preference
Thank you. That is probably my issue. I re-downloaded from curse, and every time I try to save anything I create it deletes itself. I will remove that immediately and wait for your next post. My other issue w/ PA is it is not as user friendly as I would like. I had to have a friend help me set up the codes the first time, I'm not sure why I can't ever get that addon, but I guess that has to be my "blonde bottle addon".
Thank you for your assistance, it is greatly appreciated.
