10 Twink Affliction Warlock Question!

[Winterly]

Was just wondering how "Corruption" is for Damage and dot ticks on a level 10 twink affliction warlock, also would it be best to have more crit or haste.

 

[Dorigon]

Its damage is not good on any low level warlock. There's no point in staying level 10 unless you have a GF'd toon. Haste is better than crit for an aff lock.

I guess I'm stuck on the fact that It would be neat to have the fantasy of a 10 affliction warlock twink and just dot everything I see and do high amount of damage..

Fun Facts.

Hots and Dots (like corruption) gain benefit from the haste multiplier twice as it increases damage AND it reduces the global cooldown / cast time.

crit only benefits you once and in fact its effect is reduced by half in pvp.

you gain more %haste per rating than you do crit .



TLDR: For hots and dots 10 haste = a 8.6% DPS increase 10 Crit = 1.7% DPS increase

Disclaimer: the above figures assume that the class in question gains no passive benefit from either stat ( ele shamns , disc priest, and holy paladins are examples of some classes that do)

Thank you for those facts!

Full haste does quite abit of dps, but without versa, you'll be squishy. Multi was horrible,same as crit,versa is always paying off

Thanks
