Affliction spells
-
Today I wanted to do a DoT affliction character. Spells and passiv are nice not gonna lie. Can have good damage and tools really easily.
But damn, enchants are empty. There is nothing to play in Leg/Heroic. Like it's empty, some easy stuff would be reset of DoT such Unstable Affliction, Haunt. But nothing, from simple to really tricky stuff, there is nothing. Like the spe isn't suppose to be played.
Feels bad to see some super idea and concept arround Fire/Frost/Drood abilities. But nothing arround Affliction, even priest DoT is fill with a lot of stuff.Wish it come later on, really wanting to play it.

Legendary Enchant - Harbinger of Pestilence
Epic Enchants - Wrath of the Plague, Soul Siphon, Growing Corruption
yes, you are blasting wraths between the affliction spells but it is still an affliction primary build.

@Ironcloak Thanks for the answer, I looked at it already.
The Leg and the first Epic look nice.
But for the 2 other Epics, look kind of meh.
Soul Siphon is just a team healing tool, not making the engine better.
And Growing corruption doesn't look sexy since the seed don't last and always instant explode on target. Or maybe it something I didn't get yet. -
@Nifu Also just Harbinger of Pestilence is a diseases buff, and only Harbringer itself and Devouring plague are Disease. So you do not use Affliction spells, only Haunt itself.
Even playing Unstable affliction and corrupt work with Haunt. They have 0 interaction with enchance.
Kind of feel you can go for Affliction DoT, but will cost too much, making it a waste. When you can only focus on Insect Swarm, Wrath, Haunt and maybe Devouring Plague. -
I agree Soul Siphon is not the best in this built and Coax to Darkness is better but I was showcasing Affliction enchants.
Growing Corruption is a two for 1, you don't have to spend the global cooldown to cast Corruption. Wild Wrath may be better so you don't have to keep casting insect swarm and you can use the talent Careful Aim from Marksman Hunter to get INT to Ranged AP. This is especially true if you are using the Everlasting Affliction talent to keep Corruption up permanently with your Haunt. Again, I was showcasing Affliction enchants.
So you cast Insect Swarm and Corruption and keep them up with Haunt on cooldown, wrath when needed with a steady shot-->wrath if your Swarm is about to cool down. In between wraths you are casting Devouring Plague and Unstable Affliction and Curse of Agony.
