This talent now consumes an Immolate or Shadowflame effect on the enemy target to instantly deal damage equal to 9 seconds of Immolate or 8 seconds of Shadowflame, and causes additional damage over 3 seconds equal to 3 seconds of Immolate or 2 seconds of Shadowflame. In addition, the periodic damage of Conflagrate is capable of critically striking the afflicted target.

- Shadow Bite: This pet ability now provides 15% increased damage for each of the warlock’s damage-over-time effects on the target.
Pets scaling in Patch 3.3
We're still working on it. One stat that will almost certainly not get scaled to the pet is armor pen. It is technically (for obscure reasons) challenging to convert the armor pen rating from the hunter to the pet. Given armor pen's not so rosy future (as a stat on gear anyway), this one probably won't get resolved.
We'd still like to scale haste, crit and just about everything else. We'll get done what we can.
Mit dem Patch kommen einige interessante PvE Änderungen für uns ins Spiel. Es wird neben bisher oben genannten über eine veränderte oder neue Corruption Glyph nachgedacht, bei der die Corruption Ticks durch Haste beeinflusst werden sollen.
Darüber hinaus könnte Deep Dämo, zumindest solange in Icecrown keine Behinderten Anti-Pets (und Scaling) Encounter kommen, wieder im 25er Raid interessant werden, trotz Ele-Shammys. 5% mehr Schaden overall und das überarbeitete Decimation klingen interessant.
Letzteres war für mich bisher eine Designschwäche, einerseits auf max-range stehen zu müssen für das 1:1 SB/SF Weaving und andererseits die Immoaura in Meleerange (sofern Meta aktiv) zu halten. Von Lag, Movement und Encounterdesigns die 1:1 Weavings verhindern will ich gar net erst reden. Das Stumpfsinnige 1:1 Weaving wird ab 3.3 hinfällig, stattdessen gibts nen dicken SF-Spam Boost. Bleibt nur zu hoffen, dass die Encounter so gestrickt sind, dass die <35% Phase recht lang anhält.
Zwar wird man vermutlich als Supportschlampe immer noch nicht an die Werte von Destro oder Affli herankommen und schätzungsweise "nur noch" 5% weniger Schaden machen, aber es sollte zumindest bzgl. Raiddps einen grösseren, spürbareren Boost geben, als dies bisher der Fall.
Affli könnte mit der DoT-Haste Änderung auch gut profitieren, aber letztlich werden es wieder die Heroic Modes der neuen Raidinstanz sein, die bestimmen werden, welcher Specc wie gut wirklich ist!
