the problem is not only physical damage.
I see that everyone here is talking mostly about affliction. Destruction is in a much worse spot than affliction. In order to kill something in arena I need perfect cc timing with my partner and perfect circumstances like the opponent being out in the open, out of cds, stunned. Meanwhile other classes one shot me in one gcd. And chaos bolts seem sooo damn weak, I usually crit for 6.5k at most, it doesnât seem rewarding at all taking into consideration all of the prep I need for it.
I also tried raiding as destroâŚlast on the dps meters on 80% of the fights and believe me I read so freakin much about rotation, maximizing cds and nothing happensâŚmeanwhile boomkin 1 button spam and does 3x my damage.
I love destruction. it is my fav class/spec but at this point Iâm getting so frustrated that I either reroll whatever is most op class in pvp atm or I quit the game.
Can you please tell me which class is the most op atm? xD

Lupex I really shouldnât say thisâŚ
Play a fire mage or marksman Hunter, that should sort things out for you. Ret Paladin is a good ranged dps too in pvp

For raids, if you look at logs then destro locks are doing alright. Not near affliction but there are people pulling upwards of 5k DPS on sludge fist for example. Capable of doing lots of damage but most players arenât that good.
Donât know what to say, seems unlikely. Source?
This is exactly how i feel
Fun fact of the week :
There are actually more high rated Protection Paladins than Destruction Warlocks in 3v3 arenas, worldwide.

Something Blizz could do in order to kill two birds with one stone :
Fix affliction warlocks this way :
- Sacrolashâdark strike ( legendary craft effect ) no longer slows people -50%
â> - Sacrolashâdark strike ( legendary craft effect ) corruption now reduces the damage afflicted targets deal to the original warlock caster by 15% (or make it 20% I donât know).
Easy pizzy, I thought about it whilst I was drinking my morning coffee. This change addresses the toxic aspect of corruption spam in RBGs and it gives warlocks a survivability boost. All things considered it would actually be a big nerf, so I am not too sure.
I know we are all looking for fixes but the only fix is to demon armor reducing a flat % of damage (20%) after that we can talk about other ideas.

Y, and make it baseline. Also reduce the cast time for chaos bolts
Reduce cast time and make it cost one shard, malfic rupture is criting for 21k meanwhile CB is doing 8k at best.
I am sorry but you paying for a broken game who dont care about only that u keep paying at the same time the staff at blizzard are laughing at us

I like how Demonology warlock sucks so hard you donât even discuss it. I donât even dream of progressing in Arena in terms of rating when I canât even do a quest about aquiring 1500 honor in the Arena.
I tried it once when SL launched and then never used it again. Now itâs all about affliction, which makes me wonder why even bother with 3 dps specs for pure classes.
