Didn’t think Affli could be butchered any more than it already was, boy was I wrong, the spec was already bearly playable in arena and now it’s literally not even playable.
How can it be nerfed in it’s current state?
Affli needed monk-like pvp talents (some mop reverts), but for some reason you added some troll portal ability with a wind-up timw?
We didn’t get Soul link, we didnt get tanky pets, we didn’t get any proper rot damage whatsoever?
This is absolutely disgusting, cmon it’s insulting
What I see is, even more useful spells as talents. God dammit, when does blizzard give us some of those mandatory spells baseline? This is not funny anymore.
We are the only class with so much mandatory spells, every other class can combine different talents and still don’t need to trade dmg for survivability.
You would be amazed in how many more ways blizzard can butcher warlock they will probably add some more things to destro, didn’t they say they will rework honor talents ? Afli got zero reworks pretty much only a borrowed power removal and dmg nerfs
I thought the same, by reworking my first thought was “yes, we get done baseline” but instead they removed the useless talents and gave even more mandatory talents…
dot and drain specialist, meanwhile we dont have drain soul baseline 
even the in game tooltips are making fun of you.
Affliction has been “ok” up untill these changes, i have felt the lack of flow in the spec without Haunt/Shadow Bolt procs being baseline to get some use of Shadow Embrace, right now its not worth to stand and cast Shadow Bolt due to low damage and lack of gcds.
Sacrolash made it so you could kite melee’s and still do some damage and not get run down totally.
Without the sacrolash slow we will barely be able to keep dots on 2 targets with having to put up curse of exhaustion aswell, and keep running.
To make these changes be okay would be if they made shorter gcd for instant dots and curses like the old talent: Amplify Afflictions (Reduces the global cooldown of your Curses, Agony, Corruption, and Unstable Affliction by 0.5 sec.)
Make Nightfall a passive talent to get some direct damage procs like every other class has but lock is missing. Atleast they are bringing some damage over to dots instead of Malefic Rapture. If Nightfall/Haunt doesnt become baseline it would be nice to have Malefic Rapture trigger shadow embrace so we can get some use of this in pvp because right now its non-existant.
