Should Affliction get an other finisher?

[Deleted]

While Destro has Shadowburn, Affliction has drain soul as a finisher
But Im finding drain soul very weak.
It can be outhealed pretty easy and you can be interrupted.
So a instant spell that hits hard would be nice or will this make affliction overpowered?

Drain Soul is amazing, Shadowburn does pitiful damage in comparison, and DS defies LoS/pillarhumping.

not to mention you can spam it without having to refresh a ton of spells and no need to waste a glyph slot to make it worth while
if anything needs a good finisher its destruction

I can't beieive shadowburn is even being compared to drain soul...is this for real?

[Stridulent]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Drain Soul maintain the double damage if you start when the target is below 25% but gets healed over it, as long as you don't restart the cast?

- You are correct.

Drain soul is ok but its thick frequency could be faster for same damage overall

[Penguin FTW]

At least Destro doesn't even give the appearance of trying with Shadowburn for executes, Demo tries and fails.

Decimate in cata........... hahahahaha


It's so strong Blizzard felt the need to change the threshold from 30% to 20%!!!!!!!!!

I swear the op made a thread exactly like this a couple weeks ago without a poll. I'm pretty sure Afflocks don't need another finisher.
