I suddenly felt an urge to bring some uncontrolled chaos and fierce destruction upon Azeroth and revived my old warlock. After a few hectic heroic marathon runs i realised a few things that i never thought about before.

1: 7 out of 10 tanks have no clue what they are doing. I am by no means an awesome tank (I consider my co-tanks heroes and have i have many areas that i want to improve upon), but PuG-tanks make my performance look godlike. An average random PuG-tank have no situational awareness, does not plan ahead, don´t use defensive cooldowns to save the healer some sweat and can´t keep threat even when completely overgeared for the occasion. Before i started to tank i never thought about how tanks play, but now my soul dies a bit when i see bad tanks. Especially Death Knights, that are the worst PuG-tanks i have seen so far. This will probably keep me from really enjoy a DPS-class again. Sad but true. I want to be in the front, where i feel that i am in control.

2: The new demonology specc and buffs that came with 3.3 are awesome. I really like how diverse it feels to play a warlock now a days. Mixing up shadowbolts and incinerate (for Molten Core-procs) in same specc is genius. And pretty much nothing can beat the feeling of throwing some 20k soul fires (during Decimate and popping Metamorphis) when health reaches below 35%. This is how warlocks should feel like. Not like mage-wanna-be-destruction-gameplay.

A nice videotutorial for the specc:

On the gold making side, my blue gems are flying of the shelves faster then i have time to restock at the moment. Almost emptied my stock in 48h. Argh… Need. To. Prospect. More. Saronite. Now! Scrolls are moving slowly but are selling and glyphs are selling with very spiky profits.
