How should Soul Reaper be used in the rotation when you hit 35% on the target?
Soul Reaper should be used off cooldown if the target's health is
35% or below. You can also use Soul Reaper before the target hits 35%,
as long as the target will be 35% or below when the Soul Reaper debuff
expires. It is important to save a Rune for Soul Reaper so that you can
use it as soon as it comes off cooldown!
When does the strict Mastery diminishing return hit?
At 68.4% Mastery;
Do I need to play around procs of Runic Corruption?
No. The procs stack on top of each other. Any remaining duration is simply added to the new one if you get another proc.
Is the Disease build viable in Mythic+?
Yes, it is a solid option in dungeons with lower target counts where the wound-build can be leveraged as well.
