Notes

This talent is akin to Execute for warlock, and is mirrored in the Affliction tree by Death's Embrace which increases shadow damage done to targets below 35% health.

Although the cast time is decided the start of the cast, the soul shard is charged only when completed, so if the buff runs out before you finish casting a soul shard will be consumed.

Patch Changes

  • Wrath-Logo-Small Patch 3.3.0 (2009-12-08): Redesigned. When [Shadowbolt], [Incinerate] or [Soul Fire] hit a target that is at or below 35% health, the cast time of [Soul Fire] is reduced by 20/40% for 8 seconds. Soul Fires cast under the effect of Decimation cost no shards. The Decimation effect is not consumed when you cast Soulfire
