I thought I start a thread here, where people can present their (planned) Warlock builds for BC.

This will be mine, and it improves basically on the old "Soul Link - Shadowburn" build of WoW:

I question your exclusion of Demonic Aegis. With the new Fel Armor, I thiink it would be more universally useful than, say, Imp VW. Especially with the Fel Guard.

I myself would go with a similar build, but as a modification of 20/31 NF/SL. I likes my drain tanking, and Fel concentration is essential to it.

EDIT: Here's a quick build - could do with some tweaking, but I like it.

I'm still thinking about mine. I'm not even certain about Intensity (my old 'must have') since Seed of Corruption provides a non-channeled AOE.

Since Warlock talents have been changed again, this is the updated spec:

I personally don't enjoy demonology so I've been looking at some other possible specs.

This is probably the best spec for pure shadow focused group play. Sacrifice a succubus for +25% total shadow damage, then spam shadowbolt, it's really the old SM/Ruin with bane added.

This is a more fire focused spellcasting build, it can be adjusted to a very powerfull pvp build by switching 3 points from shadow and flame to backlash. Great for those who like to both pvp and pvp as well, since you can sacrifice either a voidwalker or an imp.

I can't really think of any good full affliction builds without feeling I'm wasting points somewhere. Any suggestions?

Oh, and now that they fixed imp CoA I can't find the points for Fel concentration, so I usually just max out suppression.
