Shadowburn and Dimensional Rift are NOT used, either mono and multi specs.
Conclusion, in destro spec I have 4 empty spells slot, because talents spells are most useless.
Destruction has some really cool visuals, but absolutely unused and useless… Even the DH has more usefull talent spells😅
Q.E.D. 20th anniversary of WoW but Bliz still has no idea about how to make its classes/spec fun and interesting… on the other hand Bliz #1 in recolored sarong at the Trading Post 2024…
Soulfire so actually good in ST, same goes for catackysm as it deals roughly 300k with the same cast time as immolate.
Channel demofire is pretty good in aoe.
Shadowburn is AMAZING in ST when you reach 30%.
if you look on princess we have a warlock named Frendz that was able to deal 1,5mil dps. which 12% were from purely shadowburn! During execute 19% of his damage was from that ability.
Soulfire was 5,4% of his damage.
The only part i could agree with is that cataclysm is not that good in ST, but it is better than using immolate.
Though Dimensional rift is useless and should be scapped. The only time it was good was S4 in dragonflight.
Only rifts are completely useless, cata auto pick for almost every builds, shadowburn and soulfire are optimal raid choices and cdf great in hellcoller destro m+ build (best warlock build for high keys)
Best st scenario - hold immolate 100% uptime only with soulfire resets procks, but if it goes unlucky, cata is better for immolate refresh then immolate itself
