I just recently levelled my Warlock to 100, and have it geared at 680ilvl so far. I come from playing a Mage, and their simcraft apl (Action priority list) is pretty spot-on, but still has some fine tuning needed for the legendary ring/4setT18.
I hear that some classes have it pretty bad, community wise, when it comes to how well their simcrafty stuff is maintained. So I ask here (for lack of somewhere better): If I simulate my warlock, can I place trust in the results? For example, after a quick talent simulation for Affliction, I found that Grimoire of Service+Demonic Servitude is better than Sac/soulburn:haunt. I assume this is correct, because of being lower on gear... but I can't be certain since I don't know how well Warlock APL is maintained, especially with recent patches.
tl;dr: Can I trust warlock simcraft results and base my talent decisions around them?
That leads me to another question: Is there a best place to go for guides? I found Dark Intentions, but it is being abandoned I believe. Is the best place here, MMO champion? I'm looking for somewhere that doesn't slack on details, like multidotting as Affliction or how long an add has to be alive for it to be worth DoTing...
Noob stuff:
I read that the glyph of Demon Training is bad and gives no DPS boost - but I don't understand how this can be true if it increases the imp cast speed by 50%? Unless that brings the imp below it's GCD or something...
Thanks in advance for any part answer!
