Destruction Warlock needs an urgent AoE buff in M+.
RoF and the set should be boosted.
It is absurd to end up with 15/20k dps less than a class with 10 IL less.

They really don’t.
Destro lock is very good at the moment, and will likely be even better with the new crashing chaos.
I like desto, i’m not asking for a nerf, but to suggest that they are underperforming, especially in m+ is absurd.
Buff is not needed, some rework is.
Rain of fire and cataclysm being talents is just wrong, i cant really pick aoe in tyranical build.
In fortified weeks, destro does pretty insane aoe, but the gameplay is incredibly boring, spam multiple RoF and thats all we do.
The spec is ok, but needs to be finished, but well, whole class needs that, this is not just destro problem.
You don’t happen to have any logs, do you?
I’m having trouble keeping up with my teammates, and even the PoV’s on YouTube “Destruction X DPS in Y!” are about 10 - 25k behind them.
You could try to watch some destruction m+ videos.
In general, destro is very powerful as long as you have some time to build up damage, and the tank is not running around like a chicken without head.
I don’t know what kind of videos you watched, but the ones i watch do more than good enough, i even saw some people pull 160/170k overalls.
Not sure how lock feels above 15’s but under, I gotta say that as Demo I do roughly 20k more dps than Destro on trash whereas on Bosses I do roughly 15k more dps as Destro.
Overall, I do feel weaker than other classes that have absolutely crazy dmg spikes and I’m just standing there slapping mobs with wet noodles by comparison.
Especially as Destro, I tend to see people spiking 120k dps on trash and I’m there doing 60-70k and if stars align, I cap out at 100k with infernal.
So yeah, it does indeed feel like the damage isn’t there compared to other classes, to the point where I’m wondering if I’m dragging down my buds sometimes.
I don’t think destro needs buffs but the complete lack of burst aoe can be annoying. If adds die too fast before you can get rolling you’re gonna struggle keeping up.
Destro damage profile ramps up and becomes godlike where you have a tank that can stand still, do coordinated pulls and the mobs don’t die within 12 seconds.
Which means in the current 14-18 key range you arent likely to experience its full potential as you’re missing those factors. Meanwhile Demonology performs decently in that key range and below.
