One of the new Warlock spells in Cataclysm, This one is learned at 83.

Now increases you and your linked friends haste instead of crit, also gives a very nice buff to your dots or hots.

Comentado por ffcloud2000

Changed

Dark Intent *New* - You link yourself with the targeted friendly target, increasing both of your haste by 3%. When you or the linked target gains a critical periodic damage or healing effect, the other gains an increased 3% increased periodic damage and healing lasting for 7 sec. Stacks up to 3 times. Dark Intent lasts for 30 min. / 6% of base mana, 30 yd range, Instant cast

Hey, DI that mage.

/sigh

there goes another pally...

Comentado por 431832

So, locks get mage buffs, mages get shammy buffs, pallys get combo points, druids get traps in the form of magical mushrooms, and priests get DG that you cast on allies. Did I miss anything?

Comentado por 494288

I wish people would stop complaining about this, its similar to fm, but better
Haste instead of crit. Yay!
You get the haste not just whoever you put it on? yay
% damage increase over more crit? yay
I dont care if mages have something like it already, im liking this buff :)

Common spells that trigger the bonus effect:
Corruption ticks
Immolate ticks
Bane of Agony ticks
Unstable Affliction ticks
Drain Soul ticks
Bane of Doom ticks
Hellfire ticks (on self, not on enemies, subject to removal, but still in effect during time of these tests.)
Seed of Corruption ticks
Shadowflame ticks

Common spells that DON'T trigger the bonus effect:
Immolate instant portion
Drain Life ticks
Rain of Fire ticks
Seed of Corruption explosions
Shadowflame instant portion
Soul Swap casts
Drain Mana ticks (just to be thorough)

This seems like it will be optimal on a shadow priest or a resto druid to ensure high uptime for yourself and that the other person receives the most benefit from strictly +dmg or healing to periodic effects (about 90% of what either does on a typical fight is periodic). Also, as an affliction lock, I have to admit shadow priests gain a bigger dps increase from 9% periodic damage then we do since their main filler spell is a channeled dot and not shadow bolt.

On a side not does anyone know if two affliction warlocks can use it on eachother at this point in beta? If you can I can't wait to form the 18% damage club!

Comentado por 304147

Does anyone know if you're able to put this on your imp, and if it'll proc off the talent burning embers ? (that is if that talent can even crit ~_~)

Comentado por 576607

My feral druid will love you forever if you cast this on me

Comentado por 39909

Does anyone know if this ability stacks like the way focus magic does at the moment?

For example if two affliction warlocks cast this on each other, will they both get 6% haste and upto 18% damage from dots?

Comentado por Strykie

Shadow Priests are the best choice for this spell as 80% of their damage is dot based
Feral Druids ~60%
Boomkins ~48%
FFB Mages ~35%
No other class can keep the periodic damage buff up on a warlock besides other warlocks.

Comentado por clavarnway

Why doesn't the stacking damage buff work on other Warlocks? Nothing in the wording says it shouldn't, unless I'm missing something.

Comentado por 547643

Something that seems to be overlooked, Unholy DK's would provide the highest uptime on any encounter with AoE and, most likely, very good uptime on single target. On boss fights without aoe/adds resto druids would provide highest uptime. That isn't to say that other specs/classes wouldn't be able to provide good/perfect up-time, but the two I listed would be optimal because they would have hots/dots ticking on multiple targets constantly.

Comentado por SignupSucks

To the people QQ'ing about it "requiring" metamorphosis: apply some freaking logic. A spell that can be trained regardless of your talent spec isn't going to be tied to an affect you can only gain in a single tree. What is more likely the case is that it is simply an error in how the data parser pulled the data. This has happened before with Lifebloom and Nature's Swiftness, among others, where the parser thinks that the spell requires the form, where in fact it is merely stipulating it can be cast in that form, but not exclusively to that form.

Soulstone isn't going to be linked to Metamorphosis, nor is a 30 minute combat buff like Dark Intent. Use some common sense. If these kind of drastic changes were going to be implemented, you would see the necessary supporting changes in this patch as well (like removing DI as a trained ability and re-adding it as a talent linked to Meta).

Comentado por 715378

Anyone know the name of the proc? Can't seem to find it in simcraft.

Comentado por 534648

As of the current patch you can cast this on your summoned demon, which works really well if you're questing. In a dungeon it's better to cast on a player, for the added crit, and loss of the 3% haste on your minion.

Comentado por specialmias

This is probably going to be one of the least understood spells by other classes that we put it on. As a helpful guide I'll outline some things.

This spell gives a 3% haste buff that can be used on pets
It only procs off of dot/hot crits and only benefits dot/hot crits for the increased DAMAGE AND HEALING component, the haste is passively on and affects ALL spells
It will not proc off our pets as none of our pets currently have any dots/hots
This spell seems to have a near unlimited range as long as you're in the same zone as the person you're linked
The increase from the proc is DAMAGE/HEALING increase not additional haste
You can usually cast the link on friendly npcs as well and it does indeed proc off of their dot/hot crits
Multiple warlocks can stack their buffs of this spell on one target

Comentado por 495257

Seems like itll be fun to use with an arc mage :o

Comentado por 444961

This spell also really benefits Survival Hunters.

Explosive Shot
Serpent Sting
Black Arrow

all proc and benefit from DI and together total over 50% of the Hunter's damage.

Comentado por Derren

Does it has 2 different procs? I noticed I got 2 different procs at the same time, both giving +3/6/9% DoT and HoT. I'm a warlock and casted it on a S.Priest. One proc appears as the buff, 2 purple hands + some weird brain-like thing, the other proc is a black cirkel in a green square... *lovely discription*

Hmm...I'll make sure to make a screenshot next time >.<

Comentado por Nyrin

so...

Buff is applied... we both get 3% haste.

when one of my DoTs crit... he gets a 3% increase to his HoTs/Dots. stacking up to 9% as long as i get another 2 DoT crits within 7 secs. Every crit refreshes the 9% DoT/HoT buff there after...

same to me when one of his HoT/DoTs crit...

I think i get it now

Comentado por 645062

you guys are overlooking most of the aspects of this ability.

the linked target gains a critical periodic damage or healing effect

key word critical. shadow priests do have 80% DoT based damage but they will probobly have relatively low critical rates in this first tier.

classes that stack crit as a secondary stat, like Fire mages, will have the relatively same amount of periodic crits as a Spriest.

Comentado por zingar

so.. how many dark intent buffs can you have at one time? did anyone check? i know you can have at least 2.

Comentado por 149655

I guess all warlocks know, but it does not require Metamorphosis.

Last night as a trial and error test of my new setup for my Destruction Warlock I decided to try out Dark Intent on a few other classes that I noticed were not being mentioned.

One that really caught my eye was the Unholy DK. Now I'm not sure what I was doing right or the Boomkin in our group was doing wrong but I threw DI on the boomkin in our group when we started as I know from past experience DI works fairly well with them. But my DPS went from 9k to 11k the entire time I had DI on them. I was like " WTF you silly boomchicken! Get some Dots up on that target."

After about 4 pulls of that crap I decided to test DI on another victim and see what it would do. Well as I have heard nothing about DK's being worthwhile and I have never been a fan of them to begin with...I decided WTH...I'll try it on you my friend.

All I can say is WOW! My DPS shot from 11k to 14k after DI was placed on that Unholy DK. So...With that being said I take back all the bad things I have said about DK's in general and by far I will be using your abilities for my own as DI does seem to work very well with your class.

I'm still toying around with ideas on this one specific spell and learning is half the game. If anyone can confirm what other classes they have tried DI on besides what we know as for SP / Boomchicken / Mages / etc etc etc...I would appreciate it. I think we may have to look into DK's in that list as like I said It was the first time I had done it and it worked for me. I would have never thought that the Over Glorified DK would be beneficial towards the Warlock. But I think we may want to look into this endeavor a little more and I want to say thank you to all you unholy DKs. I will be watching you from now on.

Resto druid will get between 1-20 crits in a given second, depending on things like wild growth and how many rejuvs are out. Shadow priest sticks out in my mind as getting the greatest raid dps benefit from this, but feral druids love both haste, and if geared for mastery, ungodly bonus bleed damage... cool buff!

Comentado por deadcrusader

this spell is awesome, as a warlock you should cast this spell on a resto druid (it'll be always up and the healing increase is great for droods), shadow priest, and if none of those are in the raid (which i doubt), you can use it on a feral druid, resto shammy, priest healer, ...

Comentado por Railander

I've noticed sometimes getting a different icon for the proc and sometimes even 2 different procs (either same or different icon). Is it really stacking?

Comentado por 357855

For increased healing

1. Resto Druid
2. Holy priest
3. Resto Shaman

For increased DPS

1. Shadow Priest
2. Survival Hunter
3. Feral Druid / Boomkin
4. Dk (unholy best)
5. Fire Mage

Very good informations.

Spriest befenit the most from dark intent.

Calculated DPS boost (ilvl 372) for affliction warlock with a Spriest : 1992

Calculated average DPS boost for
spriest : 1582 (second is feral druid with 834)

Dk : They don't benefit much DoT damages (5 to 8 %), in comparison to 70%+ for shadow priest

Comentado por asraelCT

just as an FYI, EJ is stating to drop it on Resto Druids. I can see why. Although a sPriest may seem like a great choice in the beginning, in a typical fight the sPriest will be attacking 1 to 3 targets depending upon boss/adds; where as a Resto Druid could have upwards to 25 targets (depending upon raid makeup). Also, their HOT uptime, if you read EJ's forums for Resto Druids, has them dropping Lifebloom on the tank constantly (as in it never falls off, even during non-combat). In combat Resto Druids will drop Rejuv onto the tank (up to 2 hots now) and roll Wild Growth (another 6 targets, up to 8 hots now) and space fill with Rejuv onto raid members (upto another 8 before WG falls, so total of 16 hots) and an occasional Swift Mend which spawns Effloresence (hits another 6 raid members for a total of 22 hots). This doesnt include any use of Regrowth, Nourish, Healing Touch, Treeform or their "oh$%^&" spells; its just a typical fight giving you 22 hots all with the ability to crit.

Dark Intent has been pretty intensively studied. Detailed information is available here: http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/813759-Dark-Intent-The-Guide-%282010-12-24

In short:

Put it on shadow priests, fire mages, or DPS druids (either moonkin or feral) if your raid needs more DPS.

Put it on druids, raid-healing priests, and shamans (healers) if your raid needs more healing.

General priority list for this buff is the following:
1) Resto Druid
2) Shadowpriest
3) Fire Mage/Cat Druid/Boomkin
4) Survival Hunter

Holy Priests and Resto Shamans can to a certain extend be thrown into the above mix depending on how healing intensive an encounter is if you don't have any resto druids, but Resto Druids for obvious reasons still rules supreme.

If the fight is a DPS race (or has a DPS race phase), or if you are just doing farm content while being overgeared, or if healing isn't an issue, then just hand it to a DPS over a druid. You can also switch during phases if necessary (like having it on a Resto Druid for the first 80% of Chimaeron, then switching it to a Shadow Priest just before the burn phase).

Last but certainly not least three things:
1) NEVER EVER use Dark Intent on another Warlock. Since the DoT/HoT increase doesn't stack, it's a complete waste to ever cast it on another lock.
2) Remember to reapply it if your target dies.
3) Always use good Judgement. The above priority list is based upon the assumption that the people you place it on knows how to play. I was in the situation yesterday of being in a PuG BWD (because i missed out on the first guild raid of the week) where the Warlock insisted on using DI on a Shadowpriest friend of his over me (resto druid), even though his friend was doing less than 7.5k DPS (and was even below the tanks). The needs of the raid always comes first, and in that case, placing it on almost anyone else would have been more beneficial.

Dark Intent: The friendly target of this ability now receives 1% (stacking 3 times to 3%) periodic spell damage and healing bonus instead of 3% (stacking 3 times to 9%). The casting Warlock still receives 3% (stacking 3 times to 9%).

In 4.1 Dark Intent base +3% haste buff doesn't stack anymore. Casting DI on the warlock who casted it on you first overwrites his buff. This change wasn't mention in official patch notes so I'm not sure if it is a bug or intended change.

Comentado por 296233

In case someone is looking for the part of the buff that procs with dots criticals its: Intenção Sombria. I needed it for the addon I was coding and had to find it the "hard" way by calling a friend warlock and scanning the buff I had on with little dirty function inside my addon.

Comentado por 794734

The spell ID of the 30min haste buff on yourself is 85768
edit: to clarify: this is the 3% haste buff on the casting warlock (not on the recipient)

wowhead shows 12 different "Dark Intent" buffs (for the periodic buff, the trigger effect, the haste buff and so on), that's why I'm posting this comment (I track this buff with an addon so I don't forget to re-apply after raid wipes)

Comentado por 852967

just incase people were wondering about Dark Intent + Imp + Burning Embers.
i've had my imp firing away at a test dummy for around 5 mins and it appears burning embers can't crit

Comentado por 644871

The DoT damage increase was nerfed in 4.2, but this is still a great spell. Any lock in FL gear will be able to keep 3 stacks of this up, and most other classes will keep it up on you.

Spriests are currently the best because a ton of their damage is DoT based so it's the biggest dps increase
Boomkins are the second best target on multi-target fights, because they'll have DoT's rolling on all targets.
Kitty druids are second best on single-target fights (Baleroc) because they have a higher crit then Boomkins
Moonkins are 3rd best on single target
Kitty's are third best on multi-target fights
Fire mages are the fourth best

Other locks aren't a good target, since the DoT buff doesn't stack.

For healers, Rdruids>Rshaman>Priest>Hpally

oops, spell, not trinket :P

Absolutely amazing buff for Ret paladins in PvP like myself who choose to stack haste. It buffs not only our flat haste which reduces Crusader Strike cooldown, but it buffs Censure (seal of truth dot) damage quite nicely. A good buff.
