Nice work. I tried leveling locks... got to 80 and said 'the fuck am I doing?' and havent touched them since. Glad to see someone can make them work.

I'll be twinking a set at 80 to see if they are any good lol :P

I'm guessing I will need a healer to be effective though, whereas my shams can run solo, time will tell

The problem I have found with locks is that they have just too many skills that you need to bind. There must be 40 or so keys that you will need at one time...

Looks fun, I'd level mine up, but with the end of the expansion, and having to gear up....

[Ualaa]

If you like Locks...

The gearing up process is...
They're in quest greens, with maybe a few quest blues.
And are 85th.

Then park them.
And they're set, and as fully geared as they ever will be...
Start MoP when it goes live.

You'll likely replace all of, whatever gear you gear them up into, fairly early into the expansion anyway.

Agreed, I have quite a few toons parked at 85 ready for lvling again once MoP hits. Way too late in the xpac to gear them up now, but I look forward to trying them at 90.

You can solve this with multiple cast sequence macro's example

on 1

/castsequence Unstable Affliction, Bane of Agony, Corruption, Curse of Elements(on toon1) Curse of Weakness(toon 2) Curse of Tongues(toon 3), Curse of Exaustion (toon 4)
/cast Shadowbolt

2
/castsequence reset=10 Haunt, Drain Life, Drain Life
/cast ShadowBolt

3
/cast Shadowflame
/cast Shadowbolt

They are easily the most difficult to box imo but if you dont mind the extra work in one bg you can wipe out 10 people if someone is healing you just but spamming 1 tabbing and repeating. I Have 5 locks but they are level 20 and dont have all of the above talents but I bet it would be alot of fun
