Hi Wowhead Lock world! First of all just want to say thank you to the veterans, and authors of the stickies, fan-freaking-tastic!
I hit 80 on my lock 2 days ago and I've been having a blast figuring out how to really play her in groups. (Soloed/Quested 99% of my levels)
This is herMy first question is about hit. I know that in the stickies they assumed that a moonkin or shadow priest would always be there for their +hit buff, as well as a draenei (I am alliance so the draenei is possible), so they are calling the cap at like 263 with suppresion or 341 without it. However I'm more concerned that if a moonkin/spriest weren't there, I would be drastically under hit.
Right now I'm already sitting at 314 (hooray for BoEs and ToC). As this is my 3rd 80, and my boomkin is already my raiding main. I don't see my lock getting a ton of raiding time. So it's mostly heroics, and occasionally a pug or fill-in for a raid. Which in your opinion should I aim for? 341 with no boom/spriest or 263 and assume one will be there?
My second question is my trinkets, I finally got
Abyssal Rune, but I can't decide if I should replace
Timbal's Focusing Crystal or
Horn Of The Herald. I'm holding off on the emblem trinket right now because I need better gear first. My first thought was replacing the Crystal because I'm in looooove with haste on my lock. But I'd rather have an expert's advice.
Aaaaaaaaannnndddd lastly, I know the sticky says that for Demonology = Life Tap (rank1) ► Curse of Doom ► Corruption ► Immolate ► Shadow bolt (spam and refresh doTs) however, since I'm specced into Molten Core, shouldn't I spam Incernate instead?(My Molten Core is up about 90%) and only shoot a Shadow bolt once every 30 seconds to keep the
debuff on the target?
Thanks a ton in advance!
