FYI I just switched my (former destruction) lock to this last night and I must say THANK YOU to whoever wrote the macro. It works great and put my warlock as the highest dps on my team for bosses, but not on trash.

Yes I had to add / remove commas while testing on the dummy to cater to my button-mash speed, but in my group setting with his gear (gearscore of 5200) he is doing 7500 to 8000 on the dummy, sustained through two million damage.

Some things I did differently: i took out curse of agony and substituted curse of the elements because I didn't have a balance druid or an unholy DK. This 13% buff is huge for my other guys and greatly outweighs the dps of CoA. I also added in a dark pact / lifetap macro that seems to be tied in pretty well (redoes itself a bit more frequently because mana seems to be an issue with all of the haste.. my lock BLOWS through mana).

Some things I noticed about this: obviously with affliction, timing is a MUCH bigger deal than with destruction. If you clip your dots or they dont' get applied quickly enough it really hurts the dps. Spend some time on a dummy and test it all out. I found that my button mashing seems to increase when shit hits the fan so I altered my castsequence commas accordingly.

I have a question though... how much of a dps increase is it to actually use the drain soul portion? i didn't switch to it last night and just let him continue his typical cast macro.
