Well, i was talking to the other guild lock the other day, and he was telling me how he respecced from affliction to a desruction/imp spec that he said is better at a certain gear point. I was wondering what stats you would need for the FG/devastation spec to be better than affliction? How much haste and crit? (im not sure i would need to worry about crit, since you gain a ton from talents and firestone... And i know you need to be hit capped)

That sounds to me like someone trying to apply class strategies from Burning Crusade when the reasoning behind them no longer applies. There used to be a point where affliction warlocks did not scale as well as destruction; partially because most of the gear available had crit rating which did not benefit any dots at that point and partially due to the 4 piece set bonus on
Malefic Raiment
.
I haven't leveled my lock through Wrath yet so I can't say if any of this old reasoning is still valid but I do encourage you, and your friend, to try to understand why someone on the internet is recommending a specific build before you blindly follow that advice.
