    How are you not at like a 100k subs. You're video and guides are the best out of everyone on youtube.

    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    LFR offers bigger chance on gear now and is a great catch up mechanic. Normal mode PUG's for Throne of Thunder and coins are the best way to get gear. Destruction is the best spec with low / starter gear, so god with that!

    Thank you for the guide, always very informative, interested in seeing more about the training you mentioned!

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Everyone i talked to lately starts out with Destruction and finds it the easy way in its a good starter spec so i would suggest that

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    at lower ilvl you want to go crit for single target. You go mastery when you swim in embers, like Horridon and heavy AOE fights. If you do a lot of normal modes you should focus more on single target stats so to speak. Your ilvl is more intellect / crit orintated then haste for single target

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    UVLS doens't have an ICD, it can proc at any time. The chance increases the longer it has been since the last.
    Rain of Fire you just track Rain of Fire "buff", since it shows up on your buff bar

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Depends on the fight, most fights in ToT scale good with mastery thats why it would be the recommended reforge for an overall best play!

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    GoSup ST Haste > MAstery > Crit
    But for most fights you can run Mastery > Haste > crit. What do you need the reforge for? ST orintated go for haste above mastery, multi target go for mastery!

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Depends how close you are to the hit cap and what values you are getting. In general yes, you want to be sure you are hit capped regardless what, but remember there was times we went under hit cap to push more DPS previously. Never the less it doesn't matter what row you put it as you never gem pure hit these days!

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    sounds fine, personally i would go a bit lower before BIS BIS gear

  • @benderbg
    @benderbg 11 лет назад

    Most impressive work Spark! Thanks a ton. Just to note askmrrobot still suggests going full crit if we dont have x2 rppm trinkets.

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    All specs work, destro is good but so are the others. Play what you like the most!

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    meta gem isnt the major part for demo atm, but the cloak +meta gem is obviously quite the DPS increase, so i dont want to say you are gonna be on pair, becuase thats a lie! But meta gem is more needed as affliction then demonology

  • @Lewiis25
    @Lewiis25 11 лет назад

    you persuaded me to play a warlock, i have no regrets !

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    These guidelines are more of a value closer to BIS as its too hard and complicated to outline every step of the gearing process. Thats why i tried to tell what each stat give, to give people the tools to determine themselves in case they starve embers etc.

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    sounds fine, but remember at lower ilvls crit might be better. In general i just would go haste / mastery for ToT favoring Mastery

  • @BigSteelThrill
    @BigSteelThrill 11 лет назад

    Firstly, Im not being argumentative. I really appreciate all the time and skill you invest into the Warlocks... and then inform us laymen. So I went to WorldofLogs on your TN-Europe server: Catastrophe guild (since yours all run Demo) has Observers on at 18k, 25k(only up 37% of fight), 19k, 20.5k, 21.4k for diff bosses, this past Tuesday. Monday saw 20k, 15k, 18k. etc. Now take my Glyphed FelImp this week: 27k 35k 25k 26k 24k 25k 34k >> Is WoLogs completely broken? Cuz its always like this.

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    if you have UVLS go Demonology, else play what you like. Its more about what boss you are at that makes the spec shine

  • @swagbowlcutmasta2076
    @swagbowlcutmasta2076 10 лет назад

    Thanks man! this really helped me, fantastic guide!

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Maybe you are right, who knows! But you need some facts down on paper and the fights need to be equal long with equal proc rates since it increases our pet damage and people need to have the exact same stats before we can use it for much

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Depends, if you do a lot of normal modes crit might be okay to generate embers. But if you swim in embers like horridon and similiar fights no point. Single target, it's abit meh but you might see better results with crit, would have to test it.

  • @ImLuckyPunk
    @ImLuckyPunk 11 лет назад

    Hey sparkuggz, after fallowing your guide of destro, and started to reforge and gemming like u sug. My dps dropped from 130k down to 90k with focus ong mastery - haste - critt

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    It calculate when the cast is going off, So if your Dark Soul expires while in the air, it will be on. If it expires before its cast it wont be on. Same for Lei Shen trinket.

    @computerex 11 лет назад

    Do you listen to music while raiding? You always have great music in your videos :3 Thanks for the guide, it's really really helpful.
    When should you dark soul in the opener? Is it better to dark soul after you get a couple embers so that you can use them right away or is it better to use it early on to help with ember generation with immolate? I feel like there is very little consistency in my opener. It just depends on how many embers I end up getting.. I hate chance :(

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Jinrokh = goSac as Demonology
    You save all fury and molten core procs for pools and just use everything once you are inside

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    set bonus are okay, but as soon as you get thunderforged HC items, you want to break 4p in all specs

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    single target you need to check simcraft to give you somewhat of an result about it. There isnt any specific haste breakpoints for destruction its more like go all out one stat

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    It should be worth it, i dont recall the exact points it shifts but i dont think it does before HC gear or atleast NM toT gear comes in play

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Simcraft is purely single target, mastery is good for multi targets. Too many use simcraft for all of ToT fights which you cant. It sounds a bit odd that 528 and you are still etting crit above else, but it may be. I wouldnt ever bother with crit in tot and go mastery haste build, there is no haste cap either for destro really.

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Well, mastery is the one stat that does scale well in ToT. So im not really sure how you can see such huge outweights from just a little stat change. The difference from mastery and haste is really not that far, we are talking minimal hundreds of DPS

    @MatteD3ra 11 лет назад

    great guide as always and good music!

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    You did it without proc trinkets of any sort and with all debuff on targets? Else you cant check it. Imp doesnt scale with sunders and such on the target as observer does yadda yadda. The best way is simcraft because it take raid enviourment to test

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Because you use recount and it doesnt properly track the DPS of pets. You cant calculate damage like that, remember some pets scale with sunders and debuffs on the boss better then others etc etc!

    @Samtreee 11 лет назад

    A bit of AE5 and the jobs a good'n when it comes to an intro, anyway nice vid!

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    On what fight did it drop 40k? Its litterally impossible to go up or down 40k dps by reforging your gear. Reforge on single target can only variate a few thousand out of 200.000+ thousand. If you test on dummy that cant be done, because on a dummy without raid haste and buffs other stat will have higher value then x or y.

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Demonology doesnt scale as good with meta gem as affliction so if you have the ULVS you can play demo, else destruction is a great spec without it

  • @Tickfaw200
    @Tickfaw200 11 лет назад

    Super Lock Sparkuggz Love the vids bud keep em coming. I have been playing around with lots of reforging and gemming....(about 14k worth) COUGH! Trying to find best stat prio for me. I am 530 geared have Hit trink and crit trink at moment(no luck on Le Shen one dropping) Should I be running GoSac with Mast>Haste>crit? I have tried full mastery full crit and full haste thus far. full crit suckx full haste and full mastery seemed to be very close. I just want to maximize my self.

  • @iMarcism
    @iMarcism 11 лет назад

    Hi Spark, Thanks very much for your video it was a great help. Could you help me with this question thanks in advance.
    I am a fresh lvl 90 warlock, and gearing up for raids soon. Should I focus on Mastery or crit as my main stat.

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    You would have to simulate it to be sure, because i never checked myself but i dont think it would be better.

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Hard to say, when you cap embers you dont want crit even with low ilvl, so most ToT fights that arent normal modes mastery should be better

  • @Narses3
    @Narses3 11 лет назад

    You misunderstand AMR, there is a gearing option for when you have 2 rppm trinkets and or the new meta gem it recommends haste for single target

  • @BigSteelThrill
    @BigSteelThrill 11 лет назад

    You got it. Ill run a single LFR Boss multiple times with no procs (trinkets/meta/enchant) and see what happens.

  • @jkoreosrock
    @jkoreosrock 11 лет назад

    Destruction. Change to demonology if you get USLV trinket and 2 T15 pieces. and then Change to affliction if you get meta gem and have 2 T15 pieces with good trinkets.

  • @roflthopter
    @roflthopter 11 лет назад

    Hello, love the guide, I have one question that wasn't quite covered though... if all targets are above 20% health so you cannot use Shadowburn with Havoc, should you use havoc with immolate/incinerate/conflagrate for extra ember regen (assuming the second target will live long enough for immolate) or chaos bolt even if you don't have a proc up too buff chaos bolt, or does this depend on having the 4 set for high ember regen or using a heavy mastery build?

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Do you have meta gem? It all depends on fights, but i wouldnt bother too too much with demo before UVLS trinket

  • @markogden5716
    @markogden5716 11 лет назад

    Hello, my english is very weak and so was wondering if you have to make a "rotation" in priority system written by putting the name of the skill to use and why, if you can do of course.
    I'm starting the demo and I still have many questions, I'll see your videos more and try to concentrate more.
    Thanks for the videos;)

  • @Sparkuggz
    @Sparkuggz  11 лет назад

    Crit is not superior. It helps you generate embers on low haste / pure single target. But in Throne of THunder crit doesnt scale well. Its the worst start on multi target fights and AOE scenarios. Its not the best stat in higher ilvl / bis gear either

  • @silverclaw4

    I have got at the moment a ilvl of 495 and rading with my mates 10 nhc. What should I spec, if I want to go on heavy singletarget cirt or haste? (Havent reached ToT so far)?

  • @flaco813
    @flaco813 11 лет назад

    GJ as always! Im having issues with int over mastery/haste for gems. I hardly raid anymore but I like to be prepared just in case someone recruits me. Ilvl 510 do u think its still worth going all int gems?

  • @ubadachi
    @ubadachi 11 лет назад

    Should we still be using Rain of Fire for single target rotations? Since they nerfed the Burning Ember generation, I'm not sure if it's still worth casting for single target. Sorry if you answered this already.

    • @ubadachi
      @ubadachi 10 лет назад

      That's what I figured out with practice. However if your under say a Bloodlust, its worth using RoF, or if there's like 3 or so targets.

    • @ubadachi
      @ubadachi 10 лет назад

      sardehh
      *****
      Sardehh is right, you only use RoF for multi-target as you normally would. I only use RoF single target if I'm on the move (Along with Fel Flame but eh). RoF was only used single target for previously due to the decent ember gen. They gutted it horribly and RoF only does half the damage of Incinerate. Along with stacked Mastery. Since we've only used RoF for ember gen, since it very weak at that now, I learned it's better to stick with Incinerate. As Sardehh pointed out, it is still worth casting when there are roughly 3+ adds because your will generate some embers from it, which will lead to more CB, which means you won't OOM from casting RoF.

  • @BigSteelThrill
    @BigSteelThrill 11 лет назад

    But even on worldoflogs it constantly shows Glyphed Imps outpacing Observers. Are you saying their is an "invisible" way of seeing the damage change? And simcraft is always way short of the truth of the actual outputs. You can turn on ONLY your pets dps as floating text and watch the difference.

  • @Ladathion
    @Ladathion 11 лет назад

    Can you explain to me how you use TellMeWhen addon to track the Rain of Fire duration. Also, is it possible to track the UVLS proc (and to estimate the next proc) using TellMeWhen? I've seen some people estimating their next proc using internal cooldowns of the proc but I can't seem to find the internal cooldown of the UVLS trinket.

  • @GrahamUnis
    @GrahamUnis 11 лет назад

    Hey spark, I've got a couple questions. Should I always follow the stat priority of simcraft because it ranked crit and haste significantly higher than mastery although your video recommends mastery. Is there a haste bar I should be trying to aim for? I'm currently 528 ilvl with normal wush and normal essence of brilliance.
    Second question is in regard to simcraft numbers. On purely single target fights should I be matching those numbers. I'm often 20k lower than my sim.

  • @Budday444
    @Budday444 11 лет назад

    Hi Spar, i don't know if a question along the lines of this has already been answered, but would you still recommend the haste and mastery before crit for a lock with an iLvl of 519?

    Hey Spark,
    I main a Mage in our 13/13H guild, but we've seen an eerie fallout of Warlocks resulting in 1 main Lock on a roster of 35 raiders. Recruitment has been slow, and it seems like almost every other top 100 25m guild is looking for more Warlocks. That said, I decided to reroll, growing a bit tired of my Mage etc.
    TLDR: Is it feasible to reroll while being behind on the Legendary Q? How impactful is the meta to be able to compete as Demo? Gearing is no issue ofc.

  • @akrasialudum5880
    @akrasialudum5880 11 лет назад

    Hello Sparkuggz, my friend has a Destruction Warlock and we're having a lot of trouble trying to get the DPS up on it. AskMrRobot says we should be doing 90K DPS in our current gear (484) and neither of us can get past 50K without blowing large CDs (doomguard, instability, etc.) Our current rotation is:: curse of elements, immolate, conflag, incineratex3. conflag, incineratex3, instability chaos bolts. We keep immolate up, and basically spam incinerate. What are we doing wrong? :(
