1. Curses
We have an Unholy DK raiding, so Elements isn't necessary. So that leaves Doom or Agony. Some places I've read Doom for its DPET, other places I've seen Agony for Molten Core procs. Is one better then the other?
2. Glyphs
Life Tap and Felguard for sure. For the third glyph I have a few options; Immolate, Incinerate, Agony, Metamorphasis. I currently have Immolate, but I'm thinking Meta might be good. Or maybe Incinerate. Molten Core seems to proc pretty often. It might be worth the boost.
Or is Quick Decay going to be the third glyph in 3.3 since we use Corruption too?
3. Haste and Crit
I have 675 Haste and 26% Crit. With Spellstone that puts my Haste to around 915. That seems insane to me. Would it be better to use Firestone and pump my Crit up to 30% or is 915 Haste actually good?
Thank you kindly.

iirc currently we use CoA to help proc molten core, one 3.3 hits definitely use CoD for its higher dpet.
on the glyphs I dont remember what the theorycrafting says about quick decay, I know that currently meta is technically highest but most locks say in actual practice immo is better.
im biased towards haste so I would say keep the spellstone, on a side note you must either have great gear or be skimping on sp, you want the former not the latter :)

yes you can skip CoE but do give each boss fight a little thought before hand. ony is a good example of when you will be attacking the boss while the DK isn't. the DK version of the debuff is applied by a disease which requires refreshing every ~20 seconds.
in 2-3 days things will (almost certainly) change so don't worry about agony, start using CoD now.
you shouldn't be incinerating, even with the proc, currently but will be doing in 3.3, still incinerate isn't the glyph to go for. GoQD will need a lot of testing before anything is concrete but it amy be the one yes. in the meantime immo is good.
915 is fine for demo. but if you haste gets much higher you should start simming your character to check for stat weights.

Alright. I guess I just got mixed up between patch notes and Live currently. Thanks for the clarification.

priority will be something like:
CoD
immo
soul fire if decimation
incinerate if MC
corruption
shadow bolt
glyphs:
felguard and LT are a given. simcraft still gets the largest benefit from meta when simulated but there's still some testing to be done with GoQD. if GoQD doesn't turn out to be worth much of an increase via MC uptime then i, personally, still favour immo over meta since none of those mechanics will have changed.
edit: >.< kappa you posted that while i was typing the response, how did you know!

well, the current simcraft model stops using corruption after 35% this makes sense in that soul fire's DPET is higher than corruption's but the MC proc is very nice for soul fire too so you'd expect it to be worth it.
going on DPET you will still cast immo and your curse. we'll know more when the patch goes live and we can all test the spec to our heart's content but my gut says we'll be casting corruption all the way down also.
tldr - a much caveat-ed yes to DoTs
