This is awesome man, i know single target is still lacking but this would be great on fortified weeks.
However, the painful part of all of this for raiders…conduit energy 
It’s not a problem, many of those players are Niya for demo, Dreamweaver for destru and Korayn for aff.
Yeah i was thinking about that but if you wanna make the most of this build and lego you wanna go dreamweaver, which i play for cleave encounters as destro.
Yea no idea why they would stick to conduit energy. Never saw a single person say anything positive about it lol
But I think Dreamweaver is the go to cuz the extra haste makes the build extremely fun whenever u have soul rot up
But doesn’t work when u got to dodge stuff sadly

This video is great and shows the strength of Affliction Warlocks still. Our ST is terrible, but our AoE thanks to SoC spam and the Soul Rot legendary is amazing, especially if you keep Agony up on all target’s and go Sow of Seeds due to the buff of Seed of Corruption.
Would you be able to explain this is a bit more detail? I’d love to raid as Demo but do keys as Affliction, but I thought Niya was the strongest for Affliction as well? Or does Korayn beat Niya in AoE situations? Or is this just a work-around for the terrible system of conduit energy?
The other 2 are technically better for aff, but it still does a lot of damage anyway. A lot of people are just going to be using aff for fortified weeks, so it’s just saving that conduit energy if you’re raiding a couple of times per week.
In addition to what Atriohm said, I ran some Sims and turns out Dreamweaver and Niya are extremely close. Only real difference is the Tool for Niya “Burs” or whatever it’s called. I guess Korayn is probably similar
I’ll have to give it a try, since I don’t enjoy Demo in M+. I’m still learning this spec, so, doing it in fast paced content isn’t exactly easy xD.
It’s a slighty crap week for demo with imps attacking the Spiteful shades. It’s a bit of a struggle to keep the imps rolling between packs without hoarding DC procs and trying to build imps on the shades instead as you’re moving to the next pack. Some pulls/dungeons are worse than others.
I’m also bad as Demo. Played the spec for just over a week, as I usually play Affliction. Didn’t want to raid as Affliction because it’s damage is so low right now (ST anyways). So, I’m learning a new spec xD
Join the warlock Discord, there’s a wealth of information on there that you’ll struggle to find anywhere else. Be sure to read through the spec FAQ’s https://discord.gg/BlackHarvest
Thanks, I forgot this was a thing. When I got taught how to play Affliction, it was through another player who was in the same guild as me xD.
