Well all be back to shadow once BRD , MC and BWL lands Im running a mix of shadow and fire and enjoying it to be honest not top dps but not bottom either
Yeah, shadow is going to need a major intervention with runes in phase 2 to become relevant. All builds I've simmed that were majority shadow just fall behind.
I'm having no issues maintaining 160+ dps in raid as as a full affliction lock.. so I don't know what the problem is.. if affliction gets UA in phase 2 affliction will be pumping the damage meters with the shadow buff talents..
@@shadennedit9015 If you pull up WCL rankings, you'll see on most bosses that 200-250 dps is the norm for good performance, even reaching up to 290 dps on non-turtle boss fights. 160 dps is not competitive. It's fine in a casual setting though, since BFD doesn't require top level performance to clear efficiently.
@@Maxvla well take in consideration I'm not even fully bis, sure fire is still better. But in phase 2 it will be different , I'm pretty sure. We don't know what runes will be released . But UA or soul rot would be huge for affliction
Really cool to see some alternative hybrid builds! Your videos are great.
thanks! always looking for fun specs to play around with

The W|A you use for the boss health and your dots above is awesome. Can you link it?
My ElvUI profile and Weakaura is in the description

Im kind of hoping of a rune that changes fire to shadowfire or felfire when we get to MC. Would be nice to take a fire spec into MC.

sad but true. i dont see it improving in second phase as well. I think Fire is going to be dominant in the level 40 bracket as well

Hi, what’s the bfd related weakaura you’re using? with the circled timers
Thats Fojji's raiding pack
Why you don't run haunt as shadow for the extra %shadow dmg
Chaos Bolt was too good to pass up on.... May try a aff build soon enough
i think imp corruption is pointless just first cast it and keep it up with the rune
Good point. never really thought about that. Could have taken 5% extra crit for more ISB procs
You don't have any talents that buff imp. Why you are still using it instead of Succubus?
You right. You only use imp on 2 first bosses, rest is succubus
yup imp on the first 2 bosses only. i forgot to summon succy on 3rd... and nearly forgot on 4th boss. haha
