This spell will probably get changed to one of the following two (with the first being a lot more likely):
a) Every Warlock can only have one Seed active at any given time.
b) Damage from a Seed exploding is not counted towards the trigger of any other Seeds in the area.

And _possibly_ it'll be both.

This spell is amazing in AV from what i hear, put i on a couple people along with the other dots, they see their life dropping and retreat, and end up retreating to their team and blow 1/2 of them up.

Unfortunately SoC does not benefit from corruption talents

From a Horde perspective - a pair of lvl 70 Warlocks using this and UA together can rip apart a bottleneck defense at the bridge in AV or anywhere for that matter. Have you ever seen anything so beautiful as 4 of these going off with UAs on people? The panic that ensues is unbelievable.

Bottleneck breaker spell in PvP. Actually you can pair this with either UA or Shadowfury to completely wreck a group's composure. Sprinkle on a little Rain of Fire with talents adding stun% and you're melting faces off.

This is a very useful spell to farm with, contrary to what others might believe. It does take a bit of skill and eventually luck to get it to work right though. Near Manaforge B'naar in the Netherstorm, one could send a voidwalker (or a Felguard) to round up various Geologists and Engineers around the area, getting 5 to 6 or even more is ideal. Though this becomes more risky with larger numbers of course. Anyhow if you're able to get at least 3~4 SoC's off on the groups, and keep them rounded up, you'll be able to annihilate the entire group.

Of course there are several drawbacks, which will probably outweight the advantages in some eyes. Obviously if at any point in this does a mob or two miss out in the explosions, or if your voidwalker/felguard die, you'll be in a whole lot of trouble. But it's interesting to try nonetheless.

Commento di Gutts

this spell can crit so walocks should be careful when to apply it.Best if you leta mage get all the aggro beofre you spam it on the mobs.

Warning : Seed of Corruption explodes through floors and walls and can pull mobs from other levels and rooms(Common in Scholo pulling the basement and mobs in rooms below u at Gandling). So avoid using Seed of Corruption in instances with 2 levels or rooms close to each other.

Commento di Scivar

It's good to use against non-elite adds in dungeons, basically kills all in range instantly.

Commento di smdante

In battlegrounds...

If you find that an opponent is taking a lot of damage in a huge cluster 'em but is being healed through it by a healer, casting curse of tongue on the healer and spamming the seed on the one taking the damage will cause lots of numbers fly and wipe out lots quickly.

The explosion is even more damage than a shadow bolt... but to multiple targets. It can be very mean when you can find a chance to use it.

Seed of Corruption was really OP on the PTR, check the videos below:
Epic moments

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xL6jjllza0

It did 2-3k more DMG than usually, 60000yd range, instant cast, AoE-spell and you could also cast it while dead as a ghost.

And you said fear was OP ;D

(got fixed pretty fast)

As a 70 BElf lock i have to say it has got to be one of my favorite abilities. Its great to use in AV is u see a huge group of people put it on like 3-5 people and just watch the fireworks!

Commento di 24122

i'd just like to say (as a mage) flamestrike is childsplay

this move tears everything(and everyone) apart this is the one spell that is arguabily better then any AoE spell a mage has talented or otherwise...i may reroll a lock for this and many other reasons though i have to say this seems somewhat OP but if i'm correct it can be removed which helps...ALOT

Commento di 104502

This is useful for farming large numbers of lower level mobs, such as the eels in zangarmarsh which drop motes of water. I can gather 5 or 6, then cast 3 of these, and collect the motes.

Just be sure not to cast the first seed on the target the felguard is attacking. If you do, it will go off early, and you'll aggro all the mobs.

Commento di Allakhazam

not too bothered about bonus damage, im on around 510 as a 64 lock, and that's without Fel Armor (rank 1) - that magic debuff will own for multiple targets, very nice in pvp, hitting everyone within 15 yards for 1110 to 1290 damage..(without +spell dmg). xD

Commento di Allakhazam

if anyone wants tips, lob 3-4 of these guys into a random crowd and if you're sestruction, top it all off with shadowfury, if now, use drain life on the last one you casted (soc, soc, soc, soc+DL) and it should all make 1 big bang, bye bye baddies. a tip though, keep in mind the threat on which targets have the spell on them, and which ones are getting mangled by your pet/partner/group, so it doesn't go off TOO early and all the threat goes to you. (howl of terror ftl) XD personal preference, avoid the felguard when using this, go blueberry and activite the aoe taunt yourself when you get everyone you wanna kill near him, THEN use it. felguard does the cleave, so it will go off early, making things less enjoyable as they could, and should be.

Commento di Allakhazam

I would like to know if the talent Empowered Corruption will do anything about the damage done by Seed of Corruption.

In the description of Empowered Corruption, "Your Corruption spell gains an additional 36% of your bonus spell damage effects.", there is no ending 's' on the word spell, does it mean it won't affect Seed of Corruption?

Anyone on beta test of TBC tried it yet?

Thanks for answer)

Commento di Allakhazam

if you are going to use this in pvp
i suggest use it on the melee class because they tend to be beside the other melee classes
if you use this on range it tends to fail because range classes are attacking from far so they're not near any other players

Commento di Allakhazam

ok so a few questions:
is this cast time reduced by the first talent?
can you have this and regular corruption on at the same time?
can you cast this on multiple opponents?
does it trigger shadow trance?

Commento di Allakhazam

Maybe better not to use it in instances, because the explosion must generate loads of threat and aggro everybody around the Main tank, who will have a pain in the a** to get the attackers off you.

Commento di Allakhazam

You're wrong SenthaiOverlord. This is Superb in Instances... lets say your group pulls 3 groups, about 15 mobs. ivoke Seed of Corruption in about 5 of them and, they will ie down, since the rest of the group also deals damage :)

Watch some of the Seed of Corruption vids on Youtube.com

Here's a good example of Seed of Corruption in an instance:

Peace.

Commento di Allakhazam

went with 2 lvl 70 locks to Scholomace. they were using this spell in the summoners room. we kept getting trains of mobs 20-30 that wiped us each time 5-10 times. after our locks stopped using this we didnt get trains anymore.

Commento di Allakhazam

Commento di DarkInos
