Hey guys,
on bosses with adds you can use this little trick to do insane damage. you have to be specced affliction and cannot have the "soul swap" glyph.
so on the start of the pull you have to get as many buffs and proccs as possible, so that your dots are very strong.
the best results can be achieved when you have all of the following buffs and proccs running at the same time:
* bloodlust / heroism
* potion of the jade serpent
* meta gem procc
* all trinket proccs + jade serpent enchant
* tricks of the trade from a rogue
* dark soul
* berserking / blood fury (racials)
* engineering gloves / tailoring procc
* unerring vision of lei shen trinket procc for 100% more crit
when all of these are running at the same time, do a soulswap: soulburn on the boss. this applies all three dots (agony, corruption and unstable affliction) and they're going to be really strong, since buffed by all the proccs mentioned above.
now what you have to do is: once UA is close to falling off (it has the shortest duration, so it'll always be this dot you have to watchout for) you inhale the dots off the boss with soul swap, exhale them onto an add in the fight (that's why it only works on bosses with adds up), inhale them off of the add again and reapply them onto the boss. All three dots will still have their full power (from the beginning of the fight) but will have a new, full duration!
on some bosses, this can be used until the boss is dead, meaning you will have these insanely buffed dots throughout the whole fight.
encounters in MoP which this works very well on:
Mogu'Shan Vaults:
Stone Guards -> Swap the dots amongst the 3 dogs
Elegon -> Swap the dots to the add spawning in phase 1 and then onto the small adds in the transition and onto the pillars afterwards
Will of the Emperor -> Lots of adds to do this with
Heart of Fear:
Garalon -> Get a full power set of dots up on the boss on pull, then swap onto the legs
Wind Lord Mel'Jarak -> Lots of adds there in the beginning, which can be used for this. Only works in p1 of the fight
AmberShaper Un'Sok -> Swap them onto the mindcontroller players and then back onto the boss
Terrace of Endless Springs:
Protectors of the Endless: Swap them among the 3 bosses
Throne of Thunder
Horridon -> Lots of adds available for this
Council of Elders -> Get up 2 sets of dots with full power, then always swap them amongst the bosses
Tortos (heroic) -> Full set of dots at the beginning, then swap them onto the pillars or turtles
Megaera -> Swap between heads
Primordius -> Swap them between adds
Dark Animus -> Lots of adds
Ra-Den -> Get a set of full power dots at the beginning, then swap them onto the orbs / adds and then back onto the boss. Works like a charm on this fight
Have fun trying this, it's really good probably gonna get fixed quite soon, but as long as it's still possible it's pretty nice
