My logs are very simple, and my process strait forward - I wanted to show how much damage a Warlock was capable of unloading on a target before killing it, how quickly target death occurs from moment the first spell strikes the it, and how the level of resists on the target impacted it's survivability against a Warlock assault. Also - keep in mind, how long a support class has to respond to the Warlock fontload if he expects to actually heal the target. Feel free to contrast these with the logs from 1.64 and 1.82f to track how this has impacted warlock damage output over the past year.
