I'm merging this post with the one before it.

Is Incinerate better than Shadow Bolt when playing Affliction as a filler?
I involve Immolate in my rotation (as should any warlock) and seeing as you have a lot of extra points when you're 80 and playing Affliction, shouldn't putting 3 points in Molten Core and spamming Incinerates over Shadow Bolt be a DPS increase? It probably will, but seeing as you don't even use Shadow Bolt that often, is it worth it?

Is Soul Fire any good at level 80 and should it be involved in your rotation together with Backdraft?
Soul Fire doesn't have any cooldown any longer so what I'm basically wondering (assuming you have the shards to spare) if it is a DPS increase to after every Conflagrate to cast 3xSoul Fire (Chaos Bolt first ofc if it isn't on cooldown) or if you're better off with Incinerates.
haven't tested this, but you'll want to be using shadow bolt to keep shadow embrace completely stacked. imp SB still seems to be worth getting, and having 5/5 points in shadow mastery should make shadow bolt scale better than incinerate regardless.
