'''Soul Fire''' is a mana efficient, high damage [[DD|Direct Damage]] spell that consumes a [[Soul Shard]]. It is best used as your initial attack for [[pulling]] due to its long cast time. In this sense it is similar to the [[Mage]]'s [[Pyroblast]] ability. |

This skill has been shown to be one of the most mana-efficient spells, but this is offset by the Soul Shard cost. Untalented it has a poor damage per cast time, so is not a good spell to use when damaging an enemy normally, but is very good as an opener when soloing where the cast time is 'free'. |
|

|
|
| − |
If you have talent points invested deeply into the [[Destruction]] tree, this spell can deal huge amounts of damage to generic enemies and instance bosses when it critically hits and if you have a steady supply of Soul Shards then casting this spell two or three times on a boss will help improve your DPS. |
|
| − |
|
|
| − |
For targets under 35% health, [[Decimation]] now allows Soul Fire to be cast faster, and without a soul shard. This talent makes Soul Fire similar to a Warrior's [[Execute]]. |
|

|
|
| − |
The long cast time and Soul Shard cost of this spell make it harder to use in [[PvP]] as the time spent casting it is time gained for an enemy player to tear you to pieces. |

==Patch Changes== |
|
| − |
* [[Patch 3.3.0]] The talent [[Molten Core (warlock talent)|Molten Core]] in the demonology tree, now has a chance to increase Soul Fire's damage by 6/12/18% and critical strike chance by 5/10/15% when your [[Corruption]] deals damage. |
|
| − |
* [[Patch 3.1.0]] Pyroclasm no longer provides a chance to stun the target as the talent itself was reworked, and Aftermath no longer gives a chance to daze the target, as the talent was reworked as well. |
|
| − |
* [[Patch 3.0.2]] removed the spell's cooldown. |
