Wow, what to say? Well, the choice for talent will really not be easier will all those improvements to all the school.

This spell is simply great, for PvP... Well it's instant! :O and for PvE, a GREAT aoe spells for lock, with HellFire and Rain of Fire, warlock now have powerful ways to deal with multiple mobs with low health.

Note also that, if the damage over time (an awesome addition) is only Fire based, the damage from the cone itself, is said to be shadowflame. So both shadow and flame? Will have to try to understand how resistance and absord (fire ward, shadow ward) will work with this spell.

All in all, a great addition!

as the effect #1 says: School of damage dealt is Shadow, but the AoE DoT left on targets is Fire.

I personally hope this is a purple Cone of Cold, in which case it's gonna look so hot.

Actually, the animation is like the dragon's breath, but with a demon instead a dragon. Pretty badass if you ask me.

An amazing spell in solo and PvP situations, playing the role of an enabler in the latter: With Backdraft granting 30% faster cast times after a Conflagrate, the following sequence becomes viable:

Shadowflame -> Conflagrate -> Shadowfury -> Shadow Bolt (1.75s) + Immolate (1.05s) / Soul Fire (2.8s) -> Shadowburn -> ...

Resulting in a lot more burst damage than previously possible. Depending on how the Destruction 51-pointer ultimately turns out, that could also be worked into this sequence. Not to mention the 26% stun chance of a Conflagrate granted by Pyroclasm -- that would allow said sequence to be prolonged by another three seconds as you're spared your Shadowfury cooldown.

Stupid Idea popped into my head just now..
would https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=15138 affect this in anyway or?

EDIT: forgot link

I've seen the video of this at world of warcraft movies, and to tell you the truth, having a move that can crit for 2570 (I think the lock was destro) and applies a dot that can be conflaged, AND is instant and is move all specs have access too...sounds like a huge pile of win to me (note: I want to abuse this move when I aoe grind Northrend as Affliction)!

At first I thought this was just like an urban legend hehe. But it seems like it's actually gonna be implemented. I wasn't gonna use Pyroclasm, but maybe I will now. It almost feels like when I started...Aftermath, Pyroclasm... Now we get Seed of Corruption, ShadowFury, ShadowFlame, Imp Conflagrate...muhahaha.

As for the rotation for AoE grinding : SoC SoC SoC ShadowFury SoC SoC ShadowFlame Conflagrate and just Immolate/Incinerate them down =9 (For the best results, invite a friend with some HoTs to come along...LifeTap frenzy !)

And I welcome this trick for PvP use as well. This actually makes it somewhat viable for Destruction to do arenas (ShadowFlame, ShadowFury, the instant-DDs, BackDraft, Molten Core, Soul Leech, 2-point Aftermath). Pretty nice when they're swamping you or your healer.

Soooooo looking forward to this, finally locks get an instant cast AoE that's not channeled.

Seed of Corruption costs 34% base mana.

評論來自 214704

"363 to 397 Shadow damage and an additional 212 Fire damage over 8 sec." - this cannot be true. Either they give it a godly coefficient or the numbers are just wrong. Even a single dot deals more damage than that. What is the point in getting AoE aggro if the attack does not pack some punch?

評論來自 221039

Its a great spell, its give you the conflag buff (with meant if you destro you got 30% faster spell cast).

So is just to conflag direct after shadowflame. And then fear, 2.8s soulfire, 1.05s immolate, 1.75s shadowbolt. And you can throu in a shadowfury ther just to buy time. then ready to conflag again.

評論來自 176424

Even with that I still don't know...I prefer affliction but I always wanted to have a spell like that.They totally nerfed it.Even with Aftermath it still does not meet my expectations...Lets just hope the coefficient goes more than 200%

評論來自 214704

The ability to get an almost instant "conflagration" to trigger "pyrolysis" for 30% faster casting does not demand or justify such a huge damage nerf. You have to cast two spells, both having high mana cost, both on a CD.

It would also be a total waste of a very much wanted spell to turn it into a "lighter" for conflagrate. Then they could get rid of the aoe effect as well, as the mentioned direct and dot damage does actually only hurt lowest level foes.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if by some twisted mistake, Onyxia Scale Cloak absorbed the DoT like it did for Nefarius' Shadowflame?

評論來自 37999

Even if it's weakass base damage, after +damage, it'll be a decent bit of instant burst damage that warlocks don't have untalented. I'm looking forward to it.

評論來自 aim2game

How will the Molten Core talent affect Shadowflame? Will the Shadow damage portion have a chance to increase the Fire DoT damage portion? And if the Shadow portion doesn't proc Molten Core, will the DoT portion have a chance to proc, thus increasing all Fire damage?

評論來自 Xsifilad

Ok to those of you who think this spell is funny compared to "ice cream" cone (cone of cold), or Dragons Breath lets take a look at the facts.

Rank 2 spell dose about 360 to 400 dmg and 212 dot ower 8 sec.

If we have around 1000 to 1.1 spldmg and destro specced this shude be just as good, maby around 1k dmg to everyone afected + 212 over time(it would actualy be more then 212 maby around twice as much)
if you take Molten Core it can be triggered by initial shadow dmg, boosting our dots by 10% and all other fire spells we are going to cast in the future. And i dont even wona start talking about how much dmg it can do if it crits!

This makes it a VERY awsome close combat spell no whorse then icecream cone or dreagons breath.

If you still think its crap take a look at the vid her http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D9uKq0Qkhw

What is the range of the cone?

Physics says that the hotter a blackbody object is the 'bluer' the light it emits.
Thus when something like a rock or iron bar gets hot enough it glows red.
Get it hotter, like in a very hot star, and it will glow blue.
So, if you look at the visible spectrum, as a hot object grows hotter it will glow red,
then orange, then yellow, then green, then blue, then indigo, then violet...
(good 'ol Roy G. Biv)

Why do I mention this?
Because the flames of this spell are a purplish color,
meaning they ought to be hotter than even then even most of the hottest stars!

Of course this may be horribly misguided for two reasons.
Number one: most fire is yellowish because of the phosphorescent effect on the air,
not a glowing black body...
and number two:
Wold of Warcraft is, technically, a game...

still, its fun to think that as a warlock you can unleash flames nearly as hot as a quasar ^_^

評論來自 stormii

for a new spell it's pretty bad, while it has a niche in solo pve and against melee, the fact that it's melee range (in terms of pve) means you have to get in range of a target to use it, and for pvp it means the same, and with locks being a low mobility class this really makes this spell lackluster.

Pull about 5-6 mobs, use Seed of Corruption on 2-3 mobs then use Shadowflame ->BANG

評論來自 mykevelli

Does anyone know how the spell damage coefficient applies to two portions of this spell? I'm curious how much the direct damage receives and how much the damage over time portion receives.

評論來自 256339

Just a thought... Apply Seed of Corruption 2-3 times, then use shadow flame. I dunno about other warlocks, but for me, the DD of Shadowflame will proc seed, if not the added dot. Better then charging a non-talented 3 sec cast of shadowbolt to force proc seed. The only thing I don't like about this spell is the range. At least specify what the range is..? Or improve Gui to hold click, show an area of affect, release to fire the spell. Apply this to all cone of cold-esc spells and yea, you'll make a few players happy xD.

Actually, the damage doesn't seem too bad. Spell power and talents will buff it up pretty well. It will crit like a beast. And it will be perfect for AoE play styles like mine and Darcphyx, from the sounds of it. For AoE pulls, I tend to seed as much as possible, and drop a Shadowfury on top of them (hopefully before the first one breaks).

Some times Shadowfury doesn't do the trick, some times it does. But another instant cast AoE will do wonders for our damage output with tactics like this. And it doesn't matter where you stand just so long as the mobs aren't hitting you. By all means, stack on the ass.

Now, 5-6 (5-6 plus! Hopefully plus! Kill...kill...kill!) mobs with Seed of Corruption on them normally don't take the damage that well and will come to kill you. Why not make your death that much more interesting (and the mages QQ more about their AoE damage ^.^). And, face it, we all know the void walker blows, so this makes things that much more fun for solo PvE.

If you don't see uses for the spell, that doesn't mean it's a useless spell and should be discounted. If you don't like using it or tried it and can't find a place for it, don't use it. No harm no foul. As for me dishing out the damage at a very dangerous and masochistic pace is a very, very enlightening thing. Just have fun with it. (Sorry for the huge post! ^.^)

I have a lot of problems actually targetting this skill...
Often I think I have the targets within 10yards in front of me, but I damage only one or none at all...

I tried to backstep a bit when the mobs were hitting me (so the mobs should be in front of me), but even that didn't work well... Am I just having serious connection issues or is this skill not entirely bug-free?

Any input or suggestions are welcome.

The mage is superiour to the warlock, thus the warlock thought: If you can't beat em... join em. And started to steal the mage's tricks... Dirty locks.

Just made this macro for fun:

Makes the emote "You burp rudely in <target>'s face" as you cast it.
(or "You let out a loud belch" without a target selected) Funny!

Glyph of Shadowflame *new* -- Your Shadowflame also applies a 70% movement speed slow on its victims.

On PTR 3.1. Now this spell will kick ass or what? :)

評論來自 anthem47

The only way I could see myself using this spell is if it had a knockback, which would be really handy in pvp vs melee. Any non-fear based way of getting distance would be good.

i wonder if this can this be used on nefarion O.o give him a piece of his own medicine

評論來自 256454

When buffed with the Glyph of Shadowflame, this spell applies this effect. It is truly a 70% snare like Crippling Poison, is not dispellable itself and lasts as long as Shadowflame BUT it will go away if the Shadowflame DoT is dispelled (tested, confirmed).
Thus, it neither adds more dispel protection nor is it unremovable. (It's still pretty sweet though and is useful in combination with Demonic Circle or a trinket to escape melee.)

It's not just any demon head. It is the head of a Pit lord; such as Magtheridon from magtheridon's lair or Brutallus from the sunwell.

In 3.2 Shadowflame will finally get a real area of effect!

Shadowflame: The angle of the cone effect on this ability was inadvertently very small, making it difficult to use. Its cone is now the same size as similar spells, such as Cone of Cold. (Source: Official PTR patch notes.)

why isnt this shadowfire spellschool? mages get frostfire bolt, why not shadowfire? or shadowfire for chaos bolt >.>

評論來自 370095

think the color is just a coincidence, maybe its purplish because it combines shadow(dark blue/purple) and fire(yellow, bright)
even then, fel flames are green, and there isnt a way to explain that i think.
lets all just agree that it looks superb and i wouldnt mind if they made Soul Fire a purplish, or even better a green Ball of fire to put emphasis on the fact that warlocks deal with dark magic, and cast the fire from the very burning legion itself

評論來自 Railander

When compared to Rain of Fire as a destro lock, it has better DPCT (damage per cast time) which is 1.5 sec opposed to Rain of Fire's 2 sec, and also deals more damage than RoF, but assuming both crit Shadowflame damage is only slightly higher.

評論來自 36754

It's damage is really low. For example i'm a demo lock with 15% more damage to shadow and fire spells so Shadowflame hits the hardest in this spec.

With 3880 spell dmg AND CoE on the target this spell hits for 1370 and causes 2210 dmg over 8 secs meaning 3580 dmg for 964 mana. It's the mana cost that lets it down the most as people tend to forget that lifetap costs a gcd so the more mana you 'waste' the more you tap and so you lose dps. Therefore it's only ever worth casting during a movement or a transition or the mob is about to die. E.g. Rotface Slime Spray.

In an AoE situation it's questionable if it is worth casting or not.. Some quick numbers with Meta up and 4250 spell dmg it does 4526 (crit 6231) and SoC does 4688 (crit 6539). With the GCD being 1.5 seconds you can consider Shadowflame to be 0.5 seconds faster than SoC but dealing less dmg and scaling less with crit.

Also you have to be in melee range, which is generally a bad place to be as a caster. Theres just no risk vrs reward and nothing interesting for it's high mana. Generally a badly designed spell with a very unique graphic.

It's important to note that the DoT on this is not effected by the AoE Damage Cap. The DoT does the same damage per target to 40 targets as it does to 10. So if there's an obscene amount of mobs being Damaged, this is definitely VERY worth casting.

PvP-wise, this should be glyphed. The snare it puts on those nasty melee users is definitely useful for getting far enough away and making a couple casts, like Fear.

評論來自 547612

Any idea on the range of this spell? If the Dot has become significant (as mentioned in many 4.0.3 simulationcraft simulations), knowing the distance you have to be from a boss for the spell to land, becomes significant...

As we now have Fel Flame, what's the point of this spell in PvE? For AoE we've always got RoF/SoC?
