Blizz 20 sec CD on this plz! :P
anyway 4k crit with fire spec, just cause no +fire dmg decent equip actually for locks

Kommentar von 7987

Remember that you don't use shards in the Arena, so don't worry and let loose that spell whenever it's cooldown is up!

Kommentar von 7786

I don't see any reason not to use soul fire if the situation is right. I'd recommend having your succy charm first and then let it rip. Don't try to fear and cast only because your opponent will usually either run out of your line of sight or out of range. When you get a successful crit, it's nice to see your opponents health get cut in half pretty much immediatly.

Note: This spell is situational at best. It has always been my first reaction to throw up Corruption and Curse of Agony. Doing this will basically make your opponent immune to charm (not really immune, but the charm will break with every tick of damage done from your DOTS). Make sure that if you're going to cast Soul Fire, do it first thing.

Kommentar von Hellreject

Very nice warlock skill that now kinda sucks because Blizzard "normalized" it. Instead of 170% Spelldmg, it's now only at 100%. So basically, this means that the spell no longer has those insane high crits, and thus isn't quite worth spending a soul shard and 4 seconds on.

Kommentar von 29902

A bit silly Soulfire got nerfed regarding the bonus dmg it gains while pyroblast (mage talent) benefits 170% fire spell dmg and it can be made an instant cast every 3 minutes via talents . Go figure .

Kommentar von 52329

strange how our biggest nuke uses the least mana of the other "projectile" DD spells...less than shadowbolt,incinerate,conflag,shadowburn,etc

Kommentar von 21004

This routinely crits for 5-6,000... I just wish I could see the persons face when they are over half health and then BOOM they drop like a bolt of netherweave :P

Granted it is a very situational spell, but man is it awesome!

EDIT- I meant to post this under the Rank 4, apparently I can't delete a post though...

Kommentar von Menulo

very good, makes dest fun again. was thinking about speccing affli.
but this spell is realy good in pvp. 2k crit on lvl 49 is about 2/3 of many peoples hp :P.
think its useless wen your not dest. you can cast 2 SB's in 6sec

Kommentar von 80711

This spell is AMAZING for Destruction specced locks in pvp. Ive seen people 1 shotted with a 8.5k+ crit. 8)

Kommentar von xxxillidanxxx

my destro lvl49 lock critics more than 4k with soulfire rank 1. If i equip my full fire gear (then i have low stats) it critics more than 5k. you can inspect my gear. search http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Khadgar&n=Paraskovya
note: sometimes i swicth my talents and gear to afflication. so you may see my afflication gear :=)

Kommentar von 128561

What i like to do is have my succubbus seduse the target (pvp), then i have plenty of time to fire off a high dmg soul fire then i usually use fear or HoT and dot them up and when fear is almost up use death coil for the finale they are completely immobilized during the fight and they always get pwned by it.

Kommentar von 109382

this is quite useful for grinding/farming as well since u can open up with this, maybe use one dot, then soul drain to git ur shard bak, easy low mana kill.

6 sec cast is good for dropping agro before the massive hit u can git with it if using during a fight

Kommentar von 151035

tryin to copy pyroblast eh locks?

Kommentar von 283244

it is true that this cost a soul shard, but if ur a lv 48 destro lock doing 2ks with rank 1 of this spell, people run away from you as soon as they see your hands catch on fire from casting >:D

Kommentar von 248959

I use Soulfire with Bloodlust on boss fights. Works out quite nice. It's dps is about the same as incinerate+immolate on target, but with the expection that Soulfire is MUCH MORE mana efficient.

Use it where you can imho.

Kommentar von Pitufito

Whit the talent http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=63158 this spell will become one of the best spell to PvE... damaging a lot and whit a 60% cast time reduccion... and even -2 seconds whit Bane. You can spam this to kill the bosses before they enrage. Near and better in power than the Mages Molten Fury.

Kommentar von 175315

cast on target with cca 2,5k hp, then cast drain soul and it will be free for soul shards ;-)

Kommentar von 442242

Haha useless?

Watch this before you start putting down soul-fire

Kommentar von 206160

with new Decimation talent, you can just keep spamming Soul Fire.
no shards needed!
no confusing rotation, no need think about anything but just spam SF :D
(with new Molten Core, make sure Corruption is up all time for more ownage)

Kommentar von jacjac

funny how much destructive warlock sucks cos demon damage more with this...

demon can use soul fire all the time if the creture is below 35% and thats alot in raid and pvp. and it wont cost them a soul shard. and soul fire is the stronger spell in game... btw when demon warlock spam soul fire it got a side effect that give 30 more crit and 15 more damage, but i think its more end 15

Kommentar von 549559

Soul Fire is better because you are killing an enemy with the soul of another enemy . So awesome!

Kommentar von Maleficious

The highest crit I've gotten with Soul Fire to date was just under 32k on one of those Tortured Riflemen in H-HoR (can't recall if I had MC or Meta up, probably had MC). The sheer damage of this spell combined with the blazing speed (and freedom) that Decimation (+Bane of course) adds to it makes Soul Fire Demonology's crowning achievement in damage, albeit most often only during the final 35% of an enemy's life.

Kommentar von 629499

In cataclysm will it still use up a soul shard? It hasn't been noted on here.

Kommentar von 632139

With the new beta cataclysm talents in the destruction tree, it now appears the demonology and potentially every tree's main filler spell will be Soulfire. With talents, the base cast of Soulfire will be 2 seconds, and Decimation still remains in the demonology tree with a 40% buff to the casting speed. Say goodbye to shadowbolt!

Kommentar von 477668

Moldarth, you have to think about that they change the stats in cataclysm: this specc (purely in thought of the changes I know off in cataclysm) http://cata.wowhead.com/talent#I0hZhddfourRroG0b

plus in cataclysm so is Decimation changed from haste boost to a damage boost effect for Soul Fire (increasing damage done by 18% (at full rank) + 15% to crit chance (only for the Soul Fire spell))

As I see it, in Cataclysm Soul Fire will not cost Soul Shards anymore (since blizzard have redone our Soul Shard system for cataclysm) and like they will most likely change Soul Fire to fit this change like it cost more mana then 9% of total +1 SS (SS= Soul Shard) to something like 15-20% of total mana instead (to bad though that you can have decimation in the new destro specc (DAMAGE!), well we can't get to imba iagainst the other classes.

Kommentar von Foresee

I'm shocked that no one pointed it out, but the new Empowered Imp now makes this an instant cast. Also, imp soul fire grants haste when the target is above 80% (which is counter intuitive compared to most skills in the game that give damage increases when targets are low on health)

Also, if they dont change soul leech, which im positive they will, between soul fire procs, chaos bolt, etc a destro lock will never worry about mana again it seems.

Kommentar von Amagh

Soul fire is actually more incorporated to destro rotation in cata. Since improved imp proc makes soul fire an instant cast, As for demo this will not be a filler. Demo filler will still be shadow bolt and SF is used when molten core procs.

Kommentar von 148868

So, from a Demonology warlock PoV:

The new Soul Fire takes ~50% more time to cast than a shadow bolt at 80, with Bane but without Emberstorm, then 11% more with both Bane and Emberstorm, does twice the damage, has a bigger sp coefficient, benefits from Decimation and has the same specialization bonus (+15%). Thus the only use for Shadow bolt in case of Demonology is applying the 5% debuff.

Seems like the new Demonology flavor of the month damage are fire spells. Apply Immolate, keep it up with Hand of Gul'Dan, use Soul Fire as filler and Incinerate on Molten Core procs (which now happen off Immolate). And then again Soul Fire in execute range. Add Bane of Doom and Corruption to taste.

Kommentar von Rexfortuni

At low lvls (once Emberstorm 2/2 is obtained) your soul fire has a much higher dps than shadow bolt does. A constant spam of soul fire (with a few instant cast soul fires thrown in) can increase your dmg by 1/3 or more over a shadow bolt spam (with the instant cast soul fire thrown in for the buff that improved soul fire rewards).

Even though soul fire has a longer cast time (an extra 1/6 of the shadow bolt cast) it does almost twice the dmg and costs less mana. On short fights, shadow bolt may be better simply because you may not even be able to get a soul fire in, but on a boss fight, throw up an immolate, conflagrate, and bane of doom and spam the hell outta some soul fire.

Also, at some point, haste from buffs will cause shadow bolt to be cast faster than the GCD, so you're wasting time just sitting there. There is a point where soul fire would be cast faster than the GCD as well, but it's further up and it will still be causing more dmg in the same time.

Edit: sp&g

In the New Expansion Mists of Pandaria , The Spell is getting a new Effect Model, which is really cool!

Kommentar von Toldry

by the Mists of Pandaria tooltip:

Soul Fire always critically strikes. In addition, the damage is increased by your critical strike chance.

This could serve Warlocks similarly to Lavaeruption and could be useful to proc all sorts of things that proc only from critical strikes

Kommentar von MrWeirdGuy

I've been leveling a demo Lock recently, and it's been fun, but I've been wondering:
Is there any reason to use Soul Fire at low levels besides hard casting it to engage an enemy? You don't get Molten Core until 69, which makes it seem fairly useless until then.

Kommentar von Conqueror13

Im very disappointed with this skill, it seems that have a lot of sinergy with demonology but the damage very low.

Im not full geared, but it seems the damage of this skill is a little higher than a normal shadow bolt, so i dont know if this skill will give me a significant dps increase than using shadow bolt instead (even with molten core). 70% of spell power coefficient for a 4 second cast skill is very suspicious, comparing to other warlock spells.

Kommentar von 1082915

I seem to remember a Lee Scratch Perry song with this name... mixed at the Black Ark studio and all that...

Kommentar von 223389

In the middle of casting this spell it will sometimes cancel due to "Not enough fury". I'm not sure if its a bug or intended that fury can decay during a cast. I'm level 14.

Kommentar von Maleficious

For anyone (particularly new Warlocks) underwhelmed by Soul Fire at face value.

The damage shown by the tooltip is what Soul Fire deals on a normal hit, but Soul Fire always crits, so the damage is closer to twice what you see in the tooltip.

That being said, it is still only worth casting when you have Molten Core stacks available, with Molten Core up, it casts faster than Shadow Bolt, deals far more damage per cast, and generates more Demonic Fury per cast. Combine with Metamorphosis, a full Fury bar, and some cooldowns, and you can mash out a lengthy stream of fiery pain and death in no time.

Kommentar von navysilan

Kommentar von CJLo

Did Blizzard just updated the animation of Soul Fire very recently (post 9.2.5)?

I tried talented it today and found out it does not looks like what it used to be back in 9.0.
