Now, Haut drops off (way too soon imo) so I have to stop my SB dps, and recast that....and with a 1.5 sec cast time, 1.5 sec gcd, plus any lag involved, I have maybe 4 secs till I have to recast Haunt again. In the mean time all my other dots have fallen off and I have to do the sequence once more. Except now, since haunt is already on the mob, my macro bugs out till the haunt returns. Doing all of this makes trying to pay attention to something like where the infernals are on Prince very difficult (ok ok, maybe not so much anymore, but once upon a time). <BR/><BR/>I've always liked long duration dots for PVE. They need to extend Haunt's duration, increase the heal amount, and add in a glyph that cuts the duration if one so chooses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4402168815217285070.post-37585971157303353882008-11-11T13:36:00.000-05:002008-11-11T13:36:00.000-05:00A bit offtopic, but we really should be pushing fo...A bit offtopic, but we really should be pushing for a viable CC...say a fear that doesn't path very far, or a banish that works on all PVE mobs. I'm not looking forward to the future when we have to start using CC again and "LF DPS/CC" means I can't go.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4402168815217285070.post-42124185136719257322008-11-11T13:26:00.000-05:002008-11-11T13:26:00.000-05:00How is affliction difficult, exactly?

Then whatever else you want to do (Fear, Drain, SB).<BR/><BR/>Solo w/multiple targets: Haunt first target, start dropping Corruption and Siphon Life on every mob, recast Haunt when possible.<BR/><BR/>Bosses: Curse of Doom or Agony, Haunt, Corruption, UA, Shadowbolt. Rinse, repeat. Adjust for each boss's tactical requirements.<BR/><BR/>What's so difficult?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08399849916712761416noreply@blogger.com
