Imagine that if you were targeting a mob soul burn would do damage to the mob or is soul burn like burning your own soul for extra power.

Dang I guess locks are gonna be running from raid bosses so they can drop combat and get their shards back. Drain soul should give shards in combat but seriously gimp your dps.

Kommentar von themguyman

does it have charges or can i cast as many of the spells listed during the 10 seconds

Kommentar von Tripster

If soulburn cools only when out of combat, then it would be smart to use it right before the fight starts so you can get another one. Or did I get something wrong?

Kommentar von 561234

I think this may be my favorite new spell. I love how in Cata, locks will be the "cooldown class" with the ability to pop at least 3 different epic damage boosts at a time.

And thats not counting trinkets or the 2 more cooldowns demo locks get.

Soulburn + Unstable Affliction is not working, or it has been removed from the list :-S

Sample Soulburn Macro:
#showtooltip Soul Fire
/use 13
/use 14
/use 10
/cast Soul Fire; Soulburn
/cast Soul Fire
/petattack
On a normal press it will activate both trinkets and your gloves on use ability. Then it will cast Soul Fire. If your pet is not in combat, it sends your pet in to attack.

Right click does all the above PLUS consumes a shard and the Soul Fire will be empowered and instant.

the resouce it uses (soulshards) do not regenerate in combat.

Not if you able to cast Drain soul on adds, Shadowburn too

The "cool down" off combat thing is just the illusion of Soul havest, which is a Quality of Life spell instead of the only way to gain shard.
You aren't really able to gain shard after a boss wipe which there most likely don't have any adds left for shard.

How to get a free (4th) Soul Burn for every boss fight:

I have been using this effectively since 4.01

Begin approximately 7 seconds before boss pull (either communicate with tanks or watch DBM combat countdown if RP):

~7 seconds until combat - /cast Soul Burn
~6.5-6 seconds until combat - /cast Soul Harvest
~3 seconds until combat - Soul shard replenished by now

Combat begins - You now have ~8 seconds to use your free Soul Burn

Note the longer you can give yourself (and wait) to use the Soul Burn (generally for Soul Fire) the better as tanks will generally need the time to gain threat.
~~For Destro it is especially effective as it will proc your > 80% haste buff which could potentially give you an extra one of those procs before the cooldown is up and the boss is still > 80%.~~

Edited for since the 80% requirement is now removed and Destro is the only spec that can use the buff.

what does the Soulburn effect of Drain Life work exactly, I'm not understanding its benefit, I do like the instant Soul Fire effect, its pretty nice and saves a lot of time and spell use.

Kommentar von 59867

What if you are fighting a boss with minions and you use Drain Soul or Shadowburn on a dying minion? Won't that allow you to use more than 3 Soulburns in one session of combat?

No because minions (adds) during boss fights do not reward experience or honor.

Kommentar von 695805

It might be me, but I seem to be able to get more than one effect from a Soulburn:
- I activated Soulburn
- Started casting Searing Pain
- The moment Searing Pain is cast I hit the Soul Fire button.

Maybe it is just coincidence, but everytime I do it this way, Searing Pain is a crit and Soulfire is an instant cast. I don't get the +50% crit chance afterwards, so I might have been extremely lucky...

Edit: after some more testing, I realised Searing Pain's crit wasn't very specific to test it with, so I switched to the combination Soulburn + SoC. I was still able to cast both spells almost simultaniosly, but SoC didn't gave Corruption to all nearby targets, so I at least SoC doesn't benefit from it.

I'm probably wrong with my first statement, but well...^^

1. Activate Soulburn.
2. Cast Searing Pain.
3. Cast any other spell that can be affected by soulburn.
4. ?
5. Profit.

Soulburn > Searing pain > (just as the cast is ending) Soulfire.

Searing pain will crit and Soulfire will be Instant cast.

I wanted to add...

On Beta, if in combat and there were adds or mobs, and you did a drain soul or shadowburn - shards were replenished. This allowed for more than 3 Soul Burns if the fight lasted that long.

Second. Soul Burn + Seed of Corruption. This is especially nice for Affliction locks when any 'large' # of mobs is about. You SoC the 'main' mob. it goes off and spreads Corruption to all the mobs. Then you bring RoF down. With Corruption on multilple mobs, the chance to proc the 'free' SB is higher. RoF now that they buffed it, SB whenever it procs the nightfall or glyph.

Kommentar von Althizor

There are a lot of people saying that boss adds wouldn't generate soul shards with drain soul or shadow burn because they don't award experience or honor.

But that isn't true. -Most- boss adds proc those kinds of effects even at max level. It just means that if you could gain experience, it would have given you some.

Not all adds do though. So you may have to experiment to figure out which ones do and which ones don't. Its pretty random. Sometimes the 10k hp add counts but the 1 mil+ major boss add doesn't count.

Best avatar pic, only me and 37 others use it :D

Will be affected by 4pcT13 in Patch 4.3:

"4P -- Soulburn grants a 10% increase to your spell power for 10 sec, and Soul Fire cast with Soulburn active now grants a Soul Shard."
