Nooby Warlock question.
Posted: 10 Jun 2016 23:27
Hi,
A friend and I recently decided to dip out toes into the world of private servers and as we both had fond memories of WOTLK ended up here, been loving it so far and decided to do a retail transfer with my Warlock, something I never play much of in retail but always wanted to give more of a go back in the Wrath days.
So I've gotten my retail transfer through, bought a few bits of gear with emblems so got a mix of emblem epics and the blues I was started with, bought all my spells and what not and after reading a raft of old guides been hitting the training dummy and tried a normal 5man.
Most things have been going fine as far as I can tell but one thing I'm having serious problems with is mana. Is this normal?
Obviously warlocks have life tap for mana management but it seems as though I'm still burning through way too much mana way to quickly.
I went demonology because that was always my favourite back in the day so is it just a feature of the spec? Might it be my gear? Not a big enough mana pool or not enough spirit perhaps? Or do I just need to life tap every few spells and hope my healer doesn't wish me dead? Am I just being an idiot and missing something really obvious?
Any help or insight on the matter would be greatly appreciated, don't really wanna dive into anything and end up a burden on my party!
EDIT: I feel like MP5 would probably be overkill, but its been so longer since I've played anything but retail I may be wildly wrong here.
