aff faster
demo safer
QFT..
affliction is definitely the way to go before 50 though.. until you can get FG, then demo is really just not that great in my opinion.
What is the best races for warlock, soloing elites? (H & A)
There's no race that has any advantage over the others for soloing elites really. The differences are so minute you wouldn't notice.

so once im able to acquire the FG..then what..straight demo?
what you do from level 50 is up to you. you can try out demo... if you like it then stick with it and go down demo farther.. if you don't like it, then go back to affliction... or you can even give destro a try (but be prepared for much higher downtime if you do try destro).
if you stick with demo, then I would most definintely suggest going for metamorphosis..meta's a great panic button for when pulls go wrong or for that extra burst if you're soloing an elite, and your felguard makes a much better tank than your VW could ever dream.
personally, i'm dualspecced demo and affliction. I use my demo build for most everything, but affliction is great for soloing low level instances to farm stuff, or running guildies through. (main reason.. if you don't do any damage to a mob before your pet kills them, they won't get any XP and can't loot them).

Why do you say it like that :( your making it sound like destroy is no good for leveling! OK! agreeded it has a bit more DT, but when your getting the big numbers, and get that elated feeling.. its just worth it.. puts a smile on your face, and your content as u DESTROY that murloc! I personally love destro :P But If i had to choose between demo and afflic pre FG, i'd go with a sorta hybrid. Spec into afflic enough for dmg and less mana, then spec into VW. Best way to go pre-FG, my opinion, other then destro :P

i never said destro was
bad
for levelling, however i will say that it is
inefficient
. Yes, you will get tons of big numbers, and you will kill stuff quickly.. but you will sit down to drink after every handful of mobs where as me and my affliction lock, or me and my demo/FG lock can go on for literally hours of questing at a time without having to stop and take a sip.
different strokes for different folks, of course, and I would never say that any way you or anyone else enjoys levelling is bad.. it all comes down to enjoyment.

i was wondering
what if
i stayed affliction and not get the FG... ...which is better to solo with the VW or Fel Hunter?
if you're high enough to be able to spec into FG, but wanna stay affliction, then you should be soloing with your imp on passive and using him as a mana battery with dark pact and drain tanking.
if you *absolutely* need the dps, use your succy or felpup, their dps is pretty close together.
edit: bizarre wording.

so really going to get the FG at 50 would make things a lot easier?
that's really up to you to decide.. some will say that affliction is easier all the way to 80, some will say that demo is. for me personally, i've found that running with the felguard is pretty easy, and it puts out good damage while running the odd dungeon. (my FG and I put out almost as much as a DK a couple levels above me, and the, admittedly undergeared, lvl 80 DK that was tanking for us. it was a guild run *shrug*).
whatever spec suits your tastes best is what is gonna be easier for you.
