Soul Siphon (warlock talent)

Line 11:

Introduced in patch [[2.0.1]], it replaces the talents [[Improved Drain Life]] and [[Improved Drain Mana]].

−

Some speculate that this talent allows [[Drain Life]] to be a viable alternative to [[Shadow Bolt]] spamming during boss fights, especially when there are lots of [[Warlock]] [[Affliction]] effects on the target. It takes 12 [[Affliction]] effects to maximize the bonus. [[Warlocks]] without any [[Affliction]] talents, can contribute up to 3 [[Affliction]] effects at any given time (a [[Curse]], a drain spell, and a [[Corruption (spell)|Corruption]]). [[Warlocks]] having the [[Shadow Embrace]] talent, [[Siphon Life]], and [[Unstable Affliction]] can contribute 5 to 6 effects. [[Shadow Embrace]] does not stack and will only appear as 1 effect no matter how many [[Warlocks]] have the talent.
