Small guide for demonology warlocks (updated for 3.3.3)

[Psiko]

Hey there I'm the resident Demo Lock in my guild and looking for input/suggestions if you don't mind.

Currently my guild is on H LK getting to about the 4-5 Valkyr in Phase 3. My current strat for the Valkyrs to Tab cast Immolate and then Seed the Target i put my immolate on last ensuring that LK is getting hit by it as well. And Since I used Demo Form on the P2 Raging spirits this stays the same except the 2nd and 5th Valks where Demo form is usually up and I demon Charge Immo Aura and seed spam.

Am I correct is assuming this is the way to go? My Valk dps numbers seems to pale in comparison of the 2 afflic locks we run as well as pretty much all other DPS for that matter.

Or would you suggest using Demon Form in more proper places to maximize dps over all.

Thanks in advance for your response much appreciated :-)

hello.. and grats on H-LK world first. I look you up on armory and go though your logs all the time to try to better myself. I came into mediocrity as destro/afflic and never had much experience with demo. I think ive gotten it down really well but I would like a expert to give a opinion.

World of Logs

Also am wondering about trinkets. As you see I currently have DFO and H-Spyglass but also have reign of the dead but Im not sure if the constant +150sp for the DP buff is better for overall dps then the pDps of DFO.

Anyways thank you for your time and input and look forward to seeing great things from you guys so keep up the awesome job.

Hey Diivil,
im sure you get shit loads of people asking for help and such but i was just wondering if when you get a spare moment to check out my armory and stuff to maybe better myself to further help my guild progress.
as of right now i feel that my dps in general is lacking and i figured you were the top of the pyramid when it comes to our class

thanks for your time

Gem 1 veiled ametrine to get to hit cap.
Work on your life tap glyph uptime, have it up 100% of the time.
Also work a bit on your dot uptime. You could have fit in another curse of doom at least on one fight I took a look. Immolate seemed fine but keep an eye on it too since it's one of the best spells you got.
You only used 2 metamorphosis on Putricide where you could have gotten 3.

Hey Diivil... I did what you said with the Nvidia control panel. How ever when it was on quality i experienced 10-15 fps which was terrible. When i switched it to performance it was amazing and went to 30+. I admired your help and the drastic change. How ever ever since I've done that i have been maintaining 30+ FPS but RANDOMLY in WoW dropping to 3-5 FPS for a good 2-3 minutes and then going back to 30+ FPS out of nowhere and it goes back to 30+ FPS as if nothing happened. Please update me or let me get a solid solution in fixing this WITHOUT needing to go back to quality. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I got a Question about Demo Warlock. Im using atm Dfo hc and the Sindra nhc trinket
and i dont really know if its better to swap the sindra trinket with halion nhc (we only got him normal =( ) And i saw in Armory that Diivil is using the sindra trinket is it only because halion trinket didnt drop or is the sindra one just better?

Use seed of corruption instead of rain of fire.
