4 lock disc builds

I know we have many people running 4 locks and 1 priest. Just created that team and about to start RFC.

what builds do you recommend? Priest as disc? Locks as affl? In my caster team I had lock as destro, but thinking the 4 lock might be better off as affli and multi dot?

Go soul link all the way and corruption. For start, go corruption and then go soul link deep demo. Priest holy I guess is the best.
Make 4 pet attack macros. Each Voidwalker tanks his own pet, wait 5,6 sec and then dot once or 2x and wand.

At lv 30 respecc to demo, get hellfire and prayer of healing, pull packs using samemethod, but hellfire once. Swap to another pack. Best way.

As Peregrin said, 1st Corruption then focus soul link.

Here is my priest' build but it is wpvp focused:

With Soul Link active does your pet absorb 30% of the damage you would do to yourself via Hellfire? My memory is yes but not 100% sure.

I went demo/destro for farming. It's much higher single target DPS with the shadowbolt talents and 70% pushback reduction for hellfire.

I switched to demo/affliction after having most of my preraid BiS to be more effective in wPvP. Though my build is still a destruction hybrid. I really like shadowburn for bursting down priests that try to dispel my DoT's.

That is pretty close to what I am doing. I took Improved Imp on 1 Warlock & have his Imp Phase Shifted on Passive for the increased Blood Pact for the full party and improved Fire Shield on my tank.

Actually I have been doing 3 Imps with all 3 starting any pull Phased but only 1 on passive and the other 2 I put on defensive & them help kill off the last mobs.

I had 2 Voidwalkers for awhile but if I left them on defensive they would sometimes chase run away mobs and then taunt them around a corner or out of range making me have to go find them.

Note that since I am PowerLeveling my 3 Locks+Priest via a 60 Paladin my needs/concerns are likely different. If I had a same level tank I likely would do 2 Voids (and plan to shift back to that as I approach cap).
