I'm a very exprenced PvP Lock player, I've tried out just about every spec out there and use them all equally the same, but lately i've been wanting to create something based off of the SL/SL build, i've played Destro and found it quite fun and entertaining to watch people get completly blasted away by CoE and SB combined with Conflagrate or Shadowburn to finish them off. (14/47 build, uses no curses except CoE and SB Spam).
So I got to thinking, the Soul Link half of the SL/SL give approx. 100+ spell dmg or more along with survivalbility. Combine the extra spell dmg with Ruin will make it insane. So I came up with this Build:
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=IZbxczIiz0xsZxx0tr0z
. There is 6 extra talent points that can be put into Improved Corruption, Mana Feed, or Demo Resil, or anything else you feel like.
The weakness of this build is clearly visible, No instant SB, and is affected by LoS. but it provides survivalbility that the Destro lacks while keeping lots of dmg. avaliable through Ruin. I tried this only in BG's and it worked wonders, travel with a group of three or more (including yourself) and stay back and nuke away. I haven't tried this in any arena yet just because i know it would probably fail 2v2 but 3v3 or 5v5 I'm not so sure.
Just Need Feedback for this build.

With this buid and using CoE, it has been crited up to 5.7k pretty sure it can go higher, that was back when I had my spell dmg in the low 900's

The problem with this build is that you have no way to get melee off you other than deathcoil. If you run with a succubus for seduce, people can easily 2-shot it and leave you as a gimp without Soul Link. If you use a felhunter, melee will completely rape you.
You don't have Shadowfury for the stun to get a fear off, and you might gain spell damage from demo but you lose the coefficient bonus from Shadow and Flame anyway. Plus you don't get any instants without Backlash... The only way I can see it would be effective is if you have a healer buddy following you around 24/7.
