Warlock Is there any viable PvE destro build?

I played some time on TBC and Wotlk as destrolock, and from what i see here the only "proper" builds are mostly Affli/Demo or Affli with a flavour of Destro's Ruin. Is there any efficient PvE build that abuses Shadowbolt damage/crits in PvE?

Didn't played Warlock "efficiently" when i was a newbie and i didnt cared much for it in the past. Also i have no knowledge about proper warlock playing thus my question may sound retarded due to my ignorance. So no, its not a trap;).
But from what i know Lock focuses on placing Dot's/debuffs and goes with SB spam till the DoT timer expires. So why not focus on a build that is around shadow bolt nuke damage.

There is no pure destro spec that can compete in pve as far as i know. Check out this guide:

The shadow mastery (sm) / ruin spec is the way to go in pve.

Yeah i checked that thread before posting here. I was just wondering if somebody created something that resembles more of a pure destro spec. Anyways thanks for the answer;)

EDIT: Also after closer inspection of the talent tree this build seems perfect when it comes to my playstyle.

You won't use dots in a raid environment due to debuff limitations. If you want a viable specc you go either SM/Ruin, as linked, or DS/Ruin, something like this.
 
The best raid dps spec is ds/ruin. sacrifice succubus and spam sbolts. So pretty much what u meant i think.
