Quick and dirty napkin math on 4pc T8 bonus:

If your target is below 35% hp then you'll be doing 12% more damage as affliction. Also look at the scaling factors of the specs. DPSing solo without buffs you are losing a lot more dps as destro...

The BiS item set that Zak is using for his character stats has relatively low haste when compared to other stats, so any haste would tend to cause a massive increase in dps. If your gear has a lot...

Immolate does have a higher DPCT. You would definately want to cast it before your next incinerate as if you just cast incinerate twice without any immo on the mob its damage would be worse than if...

Since making that post it has been proven that the entire immolate benefits from the 10% buff, not just the initial hit as I originally thought.

Actually GC just posted that the dot DOES increase 10% aswell, so conflag should also see a 10% increase for all subsequent ones after the first. (assuming you don't miss any conflags)

The incinerate damage is not increased by a lot, only the bonus damage granted by immolate already being on the mob. The major PREDICTED hit is due to the new conflag glyph. This is going to mean...

Getting it to cast in <1 sec would also be pointless as the GCD hasting is capped at 1sec anyway.

Sadly it doesnt, the 10% only affects the initial hit of the immolate, which has no affect on the subsequent conflag at all.

Yes, thus conflag is back to clipping the end off your immolate. The 10% bonus to the next 3 destro spells cast should compensate for the damage lost by clipping. I'm slightly bummed that you will...
