Game-Changing New Powers

[Lissa]

Now at 70 I've had a chance to play around with the last new Warlock ability, Seed of Corruption. Overall, this is a new Shadow AoE spell for Warlocks and as such, should only be used in that situation. The mana cost on it makes it prohibitive for any situtation where there are less than 3 mobs being dealt with. It costs 890 mana to cast and detonates when the target takes 1080 damage from any source. One of the things I've been doing is to put it up, put an immolate on the mob and watch it blow up a few seconds later doing around 1.1k to 1.2 to all mobs in 15 yards. In situations were you have 4 non-elite mobs, you could put a Seed on each and sit back and wait for the fireworks as the first Seed detonates and chains the remaining 3 doing 4.4k to 4.8k damage without the inclusion of +spell damage.

Now the thing I need to find out about Seed is whether Imp. Corrution affects it like it does Corruption,
making it an instant cast since Seed is Corruption with an AoE component. If Seed is affected, this could be an interesting grinding tool by dropping 5 or 6 seeds on various mobs and bringing them together and watching them all end up being annihalted very quickly and in large numbers.
