I’m thinking of rolling Warlock for TWW because I really liked the hero talents, but I never played lock before (at least, not in m+/raid progression), so I have some questions.
First, in 3+ targets, should I spam Rain of Fire? They overlap or should I just cast rain of fire, then spend my shards in Chaos Bolt and just refresh RoF when it’s about to expire?
Second: in AoE scenarios, is Mayhem better than Havoc? Havoc has a small cd, but just replicate the spells in one character. Mayhem gives me less control, but can be applied more frequently. Also, can I have more than one of the Mayhem’s Havoc aplications active at a time, or it’s limited by one enemy?
Havoc is always better. But that’s because it’s manually triggered and gives you full control on who and when you cleave, and you can time it perfectly for a ton of Chaos Bolts.
Mayhem is just good if you don’t want to think about it. If you’re just starting out, you can play it and do just fine.
But some of the most fun you’ll have as Destro is putting Havoc on someone then doing 12 seconds of Chaos Bolts. If you spec into Havoc I’d turn it into a mouse-over macro.
