Conflagrate vs. Eternal Flames

Since Destro is evidently meant to be "firelock" spec, I'm wondering: why on earth would I Immolate, spam Incinernate to stack more power onto my Immolate...and then burn it off with a Conflagrate and have to spend the time re-building my damage stack on a fresh Immolate?

Am I missing something? Conflagrate isn't useful in TBC, and here it looks to be completely at odds with Eternal Flames.

Yea, in the process of re-designing that talent. We definitely want Destro locks to have an advantage from Conflagrate, though.

The new Backdraft increases your haste by 10/20/30% and reduces the mana cost by 10/20/30% for your next 3 Destruction spells.

Q u o t e:
Thanks for the reply. So, what's the thinking behind this?

Immolate > Conflagrate > do 3 of either Shadow Bolt or Incinerate

rinse/repeat?

Something like that, also hopefully work in Chaos Bolt in there somewhere (still seeing if we can give that spell better raid/dps utility).

Also just boosted the imp's mana regen around 200%, health by 20%, armor by 16% and gave it 80% avoidance (dmg reduction) to AOE's. So he's just about ready to do some business.
