I need to play with some macros. There's something built into WOW that's like a "memory recall target". You can set it, then direct attacks to it later on without having to retarget.
I should be able to do that to a healer, then switch to your target and start nuking and when the target gets low, I can pop off a fear on the memorized-healer without having to switch to him.
Only problems are:
1) Sometimes there's more than 1 healer
2) Sometimes the healer is out of range of my Fears but still in range of heals and it takes me a few seconds to find him, get in range and Fear, by which point he's healed like 6000 damage.
3) Sometimes healers resist
I was also thinking I could respec entirely to Affliction and go with Unstable Affliction + Felhound.
I can (in theory) use a similar trick as above with the Felhound -- make Hoofhurr be my "memorized target" and have a macro that tells the Felhound to Devour Magic on the memorized target. Hoof gets trapped or debuffed and I can have the Felhound do a devour. Keeping Hoof mobile is critical and sometimes Cerradwin is busy healing or is CC'd himself.
Problems:
1) I'll be somewhat squishier as an Affliction lock.
2) Felhounds can't Devour poison or physical snares and there's a bit of a recycle to their ability
3) Felhound DPS is obviously a whole lot lower than Felguard DPS
I tried the Succubus a few times, but she's just too high maintainence and too easily countered.
