Response to BOB

IDK about Affliction locks as mine is destro but in destro i would recommend void walker for the use of Sacrifice as the void walker doesnt hold crap for aggro as well as make use of fear and howl of terror for big mobs(if something goes bad)

this is the first time i have herd of leading with cb i think ill try it. my lock has over 5200 gearscore and it is the same old info same rotation basicly same glyphs basicly same specs ive tried them all really cant seem to get dps over 4500 and its been this way since my gearscore was 4700. i dont know when i should stop with the spell power gems and start with the haste since the big thing is spell power now. I’ve seen locks with dps of +6k and thats where i want to be for now im stuck.

id say as destro use felgaurd
any other spec void both hold really good aggro so you dont need to worry about your hp much

Great overview Agorg.

Veritable is right on. The Seed can be great for AoE damage and with a big group of mobs the screen lights up with a whole lot of big numbers when it goes off. It does seem to shock folks. Its fun for PvP too; it may be the most disturbing looking spell you can cast on someone. Unlike some AoEs, it moves with the group of mobs after you inject it as well. If they stay together and the tank is moving around picking up mobs, it can maximize the damage over pick-an-area AoEs like Rain of Fire as you can miss some of the group on moving.

Main drawback is that it can be a bit of an Aggro hog when it goes off. If you don’t get ‘em all down, be ready with Soulshatter to help the tanks get aggro back if necessary.

All that and more can be found on the appropriate forums over at http://www.ElitistJerks.com

I’ve yet to find a better site for theorycrafting …

Conversly TankSpot.com has a few great articles for the (prof)Pally.

Survive what? PvP? Weeeell, if so, I’d point out a few, minor, abilities that you have at your disposal which increases your survivability … Polymorph (run), Blink, FN, Iceblock, Mana Shield, Mage Armour, remove curse, spell steal, couterspell, dampen magic, Mirror Image, Fire/Frost Ward as well as talented stuff such as Molten Shields, Ice Barrier, Magic Absorption, Arcane Fortitude, Presence of Mind (followed by a Pyroblast), Arcane Power, Slow, Arcane Barrage, Missile Barrage, as well as a plethora of slowing/freezing options available to frost.

Mage ability to survive/excel at PvP far surpasses that of a lock, who generally has to sit way back and hope that no melee sees him. Unless he’s demo, but then he’s gotta hope no casters see him … sticking out like a sore thumb as he does.

If you mean in raids … buy better tanks/healers. If you mean in life … you’re on your own there.
