Maxlvl best farming build

Dear All,

Please give me tips, how can a max. lvl warlock farm efficiently.
I mean with minimal bandage, food, potion usage.

My problem is, at lvl60, the lvl50+ mobs hits like a truck and I lose way too much hp.
Drain life tanking isnt the best, because if the mobs hits me, I take too much dmg, if I fear the mob, then he always run out of range.

Void is useless, because I take off the mobs from him, almost instant, his threat generation is simply suck.

My current build:
http://www.wowprovider.com/Old.aspx?talent=11215875_9_835c20351220113512350040102x

Its based on draing tanking, but on lvl60 isnt the best, because of the heavy dmg income.
I have to use way too much bandage, food and pots to keep myself alive (silithus mobs - twilight avenger for example - hits like hell)

Any tips to impove my (our) farming/grinding quality?

Thanks for any tips.

Silithus mobs have retard strength, you'll lose more than you gain fighting them.

I'm having fairly nice success with a SL/SB build mostly for pvp. The void is buffed quite well with MD and soul link, also you can summon a new one after its mana depletes. You can also sac a felhunter for the mana regen and then enslave a demon to do your work for you. Most areas have demons that you can take and they usually tank better than the void.

I've made good money running SL/SB sac VW and have a friend/guildie res him. I normally use that spec to solo high level instance farm. The money is decent and more importantly I don't have to deal with ganks. I can generally make it through SM:Cath with still keeping the DS buff as well.

Is this not considered an exploit? Do you have any post saying its allowed?

I ran the same spec and did the same thing on retail vanilla so I hardly see anything exploitive about it.

It was removed in 1.12ish, pre-TBC in any case. No one's going to ban you for using the loophole. Admins have too many other things to deal with.

Many talents/abilities/scaling are functioning at pre and post 1.12. I'd agree and call it an exploit 100% if other talents/abilities were not functioning in pre/post 1.12 states as well. You can't have some abilities/mechanics function at different states of development, but then call using others a loophole. Not trying to argue just my opinion on the matter.
