I've been slowly going through instances with my current team of 4 x 65 aff locks + 70 tankadin. But decided after many button presses to go back to demo spec. I was interested in readin the meta locks talents so dabbled in this.

I AM LOVING the AOE dps you can dish out with this crew. I started modestly doing an aoe on 3-4 mobs in Slave Pens (yellow elites). Then I theroyed out a cast sequence macro and went to the wow macro forums for help. After trialling this I will make 2 macros one with the VW included for larger group aoe, and one without for when fel dom on CD or smaller groups. Best pull so far was 12 x 64 elites and i think about 6-8 x 63 non elites in Slave Pens.

My system is bare bones so I cant fraps sorry and I use single monitor so ss will be hard to view no doubt once some of the better sys specs out there do this on higher lvls they can share some better feedback for you.

Macro I am using:

Trinket macro before below
/use 13
/use 14

THE BIG BANG AOE MACRO:
/castsequence ,Summon Voidwalker, Sacrifice, Fel Domination, Summon Felguard, Soul Link, Demonic Empowerment, Metamorphosis, Immolation Aura, Hellfire
/petaggressive

THE BANG AOE MACRO:
/castsequence ,Demonic Empowerment, Metamorphosis, Immolation Aura, Hellfire
/petaggressive

Tankadin same keybound BIG BANG MACRO
#Showtooltip
/castrandom Avenging wrath, Consecration, Hammer of Justice, Avenger's Shield, Hammer of the Righteous, Holy Shield

seed is lvl 70 ftl :( but yes that would be some big dps as well.

Immolate Aura and Hellfire are easily done via macro's.
Seed would probably be something like:

/assist Tank
/cast Seed of Corruption

And then you'd be sure to tab on the paladin to always have a target.

Seed is stronger in that you're not killing your warlocks to do damage.
Even with Seed, I'd go Demonform and Immolation Aura... )

What I was theory crafting at one point is that if the lock
all having something along the lines
/next target
/cast seed
that way you could potentially get three seeds per target before they explode which would be a inane amount of damage once they blow up.

dammit leveling taking to long :P

I did Hellfire on my 3x afflic locks before I got Seed ... and yes ... dude, it's great. :)

I didn't actually discover "HEY! I can put this all in one big evil destructive awesome macro!" until recently ... locks have their trinket + SoC macro, and on the same hotkey is the pally's Holy Shield - Consecrate - Hammer of the Righteous. Botanica goes down hard with this!

How do you manage to do this without a healer? I thought you must have a healer for any of the heroic dungeons?

I don't think he's doing Heroics at level 64 -- but you're right, the OP would have a very tough time using this team in Heroics. It looks like this may be a good pvp team though.

An interesting alternative. My four 'locks (lvl66) are affliction specced atm, but I guess I'll try demonology now. Sounds like fun.
If anyone does prot paladin/four metamorphed 'lock instance runs, a little video would be awesome.

Update: I have respecced. It's absolutely amazing: 4x66 locks and one T4-Tankadin currently doing slavepens.

Oh
my
goodness.

What a bomb fest!

Feels like 1000 dps per warlock to EACH TARGET in range.
It's now a matter of: How many mobs can my pally pull together.

Update2: Underbog is great! Right at the beginning of the instance you can do a couple of large pulls.
