But not Gateway attunement. Best Tips [spoiler=TIPS] 1. Never let your pet die, if you loose your Soul link buff, youre dead ;D 2. Never start a game with blood horror active against warriors, 90% of them start the game reflecting it 3. To remove the mass spell/spell reflection always use Of Fel Flame or any pet hability, if you have a druid on your team, tell him to smooth the warrior. 4. I Recommend /target arena 1 2 3 macros or /cast Command demon arena 1 2 3, you need to be fast on kicks to doesnt get a cc chain on ur team. 5. Keep the curses up against classes who can/cant dispel it. if you force their dispel, your shaman (if in your group) can hex any target and maybe force a CD. *FEAR/HAUNT TIPS 6. Always when you can, fear on your enemy's healer or off target and spam haunts on target 1 / 2 to pressure up, then when done the fear, swap with fear on one of the 2 targets and haunt the off target that had got feared seconds ago. 7. Never use fear on a target who got Haunt debuff/Darksoul dots. you gonna waste a important DR. 8. Gate is one of the most important things in your class. Cast it before the game starts, if not possible try to cast it when really safe.
