Despite it being a little bare, thanks for the app! :}

We'll get our resident warlock to ask you a few quick questions but for now -

Looking through logs, you've only been potting once per fight. You'd be expected to both pre-pot and second pot each pull.

After a quick look at places online, it seems as if the Dark Soul glyph isn't very good as warlocks can get decent burst, meaning that 10% every few mins can go really well by stacking huge damage as opposed to a flat buff.

Also, you're 191 haste rating BELOW the breakpoint. This can be a major dps loss as you're wasting all that haste before the breakpoint.

Also 'What sets you apart from other members of your class? (Describe yourself as a player).
Use to spam Fel Flame no other warlock do so.'

This says to me that you do something that does the opposite of what most others will strive to achieve, which is maximum dps. Why would you spam fel flame and what does benefit does it bring that other warlocks don't know about?


Last thing, what settings do you run on to get 100fps on a MacBook Pro?


We'll get back to you shortly, thanks for the app.

yea cause i only got few pots left on these fights

wasn't aware of that update ty

lso, you're 191 haste rating BELOW the breakpoint. This can be a major dps loss as you're wasting all that haste before the breakpoint.

ya i will fix that just swapped my legs


Also 'What sets you apart from other members of your class? (Describe yourself as a player).

actually i don't fully understand the question nor its point so like the fire/void zone question i answered

Last thing, what settings do you run on to get 100fps on a MacBook Pro?

good and some setting high and some low/disabled

Hey Ahmed,
I'm Zambi and a apparently i play a lock.
As Eslei told you before the glyph of dark soul is an overall dps loss, been like that ever since they put it in.
Most cases Glyph of Soul Swap is a dps increase, and should be taken instead of Siphon life.
You are under the haste break point which is a wastem you should try to get to one of the break points (either 4198 or 4717) as long as you have more mastery than haste, no use reforging completely out of mastery in order to reach the second point.
Fel Flame should be used to refresh you dots quickly when you get int procs, or if you need to dps on the move, but with Kil'jaeden's Cunning being the best talent for most fight, u should cast MG instead of fel flame for higher dps(not to mention FF drains your mana like a bitch)
As for your rotation: dark soul->SB:soul swap all your dots on the boss->haunt-> MG spam -> refresh dots when needed
your soul shards should only be used when you have 4 shards, or when you have int procs(it makes a huge difference).

Guess that's all from me .. for now

Zambi OUT !

i guess i fixed it all up reforges/glyphs/talents ..etc u may check now if you have any further notes feel free to share it

Hi!

What pre TBC, BC, WOTLK, Cata, MOP raiding experience do you have?

TBC just magtheridon lair and some Battle of mount hayjal

Can you explain more in detail about your previous experience because what you wrote in application just was not sufficient. Did you at all do any pre-nerf hardmodes?
To be frank, to me it does not seem you put a lot of work into your application.
Cheers

No, i did not do any pre-nerf Hardmodes and all the experience you ask for is without prove cause the character himself is lost now so it counts as nothing

and for the application sorry i am was in a bit of a hurry while applying u can help me if u found any mistake and some parts still not clear for ya

One main question then for you regarding the app.

We have had 2 warlocks in the past and have nothing wrong with it.

What makes you different or better than our current warlock?

Hi,

For Zambi & You : Fel Flame is an horrible DPS Loss cuz you loose an horrible amount of Mana & a lot of time on your DoTs. U can notice on our previous logs that i've never used this spell.
Remove it from your Ui plz.

Soul Shards should be used whenever you have one. Not at four, cuz u can loose one proc of Nightfall. I do keep one when i feel i'll soon have a lot of Procs to get an huge burst (using an addon for Internal CD is really useful for that). Ifnot I use all of them, Haunt should have a good uptime (40% in worst case)

Moreover, I'd to know why did you take Haverst Life over Soul Leech ?

well now i may be wrong but it appears that you already found another guild,and quite frankly im not impressed by your application and judging by the comments from both of our warlocks it seems that you need to work on your class knowledge and understanding,and please note that during progression in both 5.1 and 5.2 we will NOT be spending time teaching others how to do their best on each encounter.
ill let the officers have the last word on this.

/xan

@Cuzdot .. actually using your shards when you have 4 up .. or when you have multiple int procs/dark soul is a bigger dps increase then having it up as much as possible, you don't have to trust me, this guy know what he\s talking more than any of us :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=V-RH__DvKJ8

And not having FF on your bars is just fail, it's usefull in so many situation!

go learn you some

I didn't watch the video, because I don't see the point. If you have to keep 3 shards at everytime because you can't anticipate your own burst by watching your internal/DS cds ...

Haunt is used when :

1) You have 4 Shards
2) DoTs >8Sec
3) MG straight after

Uptime + Anticipation = Increase of DPS
Wasting Shards + Listening one PoV = Loss of DPS (You can't avoid that waste when you hit the EX Phase)


FF is useless, or tell me when I should have use it. I, basically, can replace any of your answers by "KJC". I guess so.

I base what i said on my own theorycrafting, PoV from some of the best players, and common sense. And basing your skill one one talent, even at times where others would be a dps boost (Mr."i'm not confident not using KJC") is just "WIN".

This has derailed too much, i bid you adieu !

Zambi OUT !

- I'm talking about overall Lock's DPS your own character isn't representative, like was mine.
- No one is keeping 3 Shards during all the fight because Haunt is not meant to high a burst but to high our overall DPS.
- You're ignoring Pandemic, you can still benefit from a Haunt after the Procs are gone

+ For Elegon, KCJ is better than Maght, so don't try to say "U can't play without KJC u're such a noob ^^^^^" whereas KCJ is by far the best talent for Lock with GoSac

Both of you leave this for the class forums :}

Demon- We'll get back to you soon.

Cuz COME BACK!

alright ill put an end to this !

first i only use fel flame on 1 condition when UA/Corruption is about to expires while Agony still active fore more than it's half duration

the answered i provided in the application was ironic cause i simply don't understand the question nor its point

For the question : i am not better than any of your wlocks i never played/met any of them so i cant judge them so i am not different or to be more clear i can't feel myself different to something already unknown to me , i just need a reference to verify that adjective..

What Makes you accept me in your Guild : Simply i am normal guy enthusiast to clear every PVE content and looking to do that with stable,reliable guild which shares the same enthusiasm

Why I don't use FF :

Even without KJC, with Pandemic you barely have the time to cast UA (while Corruption is instant).
FF costs a lot of mana (so u'd have to use Connexion) + loss of DPS cuz with FF. U gain 6sec on a dot whereas by casting both speak it´s like 9sec ans 6sec more for less mana.

That's FF is a mistake ans should´t appear in a gameplay

Declined bcs not fitting in our current roster atm.
