Ok everyone...let me know what you think of this offensive/defensive template:

Affliction Talents (23 points)

Improved Corruption - 5/5 points
Reduces the casting time of your Corruption spell by 2 seconds.

Corruption - RANK 6 - Corrupts the target, causing 666 damage over 27 seconds.

Cast time: 2.0 seconds

Cast time (2.0) – Improved Corruption (2.0) = 0

New cast time = 0

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Improved Life Tap - 2/2 points
Increases the amount of Mana awarded by your Life Tap spell by 20%.

Life Tap - RANK6 - Converts 420 health into 420 mana.

420 x .20 = 84
84 + 420 = 504

Total mana = 504

Comments: 84 points may mean the difference between life and death...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Improved Drain Life - 5/5 points
Increases the Health drained by your Drain Life spell by 10%.

Drain Life - RANK6 - Transfers 71 health every second from the target to the caster. Lasts 5 seconds.

Drain Life (71) x 5 seconds = 355
355 X Improved Drain Life (.10) = 390.5

Total hitpoints = 390.5

Comments: These extra hitpoints (as small as they be) may also mean the difference between life and death...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fel Concentration - 5/5 points
Gives you a 70% chance to avoid interruption caused by damage while channelling the Drain Life, Drain Mana, or Drain Soul spell.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amplify Curse - 1/1 point
Increases the effect of your next Curse of Weakness or Curse of Agony by 50%, or your next Curse of Exhaustion by 20%.

Curse of Weakness - RANK 6 - Damage caused by the target is reduced by -31 for 2 minutes. Only one Curse per Warlock can be active on any one target.

Curse of Weakness (-31) x Amplify Curse (.50) = 15.5
31 + 15.5 = 46.5

Total = 46.5

Curse of Agony - RANK 6 - Curses the target with agony, causing 1035 damage over 30 seconds. This damage is dealt slowly at first, and builds up as the Curse reaches its full duration. Only one Curse per Warlock can be active on any one target.

Curse of Agony (1035) x Amplifiy Curse (.50) = 517.5
1035 + 517.5 = 1552.50

Total damage = 1552.50

Comments: The casting time on these curses is 0!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Grim Reach - 2/2 points
Increases the range of your Affliction spells by 20%.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Curse of Exhaustion - 1/1 point
Reduces the target's speed to 90% of normal for 12 seconds. Only one Curse per Warlock can be active on any one target.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Improved Curse of Exhaustion - 2/4 points
Increases the speed reduction of your Curse of Exhaustion by 10%.

Comments: This is the only snare we get (to my knowledge) and it's it good to have a backup plan (for melee in your face) when fear won't work. Snare/Run/Nuke

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Demonology Talents (7 points)

Demonic Embrace - 5/5 points
Increases your total Stamina by 15%, but reduces your total Spirit by 5%.

Comments: That 5% deduction is worth 15% of your total stamina IMHO.
Undead have high spirit anyway.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Improved Healthstone - 2/2 points
Increases the amount of Health restored by your Healthstone by 20%.

Creates a Major Healthstone that can be used to instantly restore 1200 health. Conjured items disappear if logged out for more than 15 minutes.

Major Healthstone - Major (1200) x Improved Healthstone (.20) = 240
1200 + 240 = 1440

Total HPs = 1440

Comments:1440 instant hitpoints!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Destruction Talents (21 points)

Improved Shadow Bolt - 5/5 points

Your Shadow Bolt critical strikes increase the next 4 sources of Shadow damage dealt to the target by 20%.

Cataclysm - 2/5 points

Reduces the casting time of your Shadow Bolt and Immolate spells by 0.5 seconds.

Shadow Bolt – RANK 9 – Sends a shadowy bolt at the enemy, causing 455 to 507 shadow damage.

Castime (3.0) – Bane (.05) = 2.5
New castime = 2.5 seconds

Don't think we have anyone that levelled a Warlock to high enough levels in CB.

Suggest bouncing your template of VN folks on wow warlock board or better yet comparing it to templates posted there.
