Obviously not a long time reader, or you would be able to answer your own question. This isn't a forum for hand holding.

I have a question. According to the OP, I should gem ArP when I have over 400 ArP on my gear. I am sitting at 419, but whenever I optimize with Rawr it tells me to load up with Agi. Now, do I socket ArP according to the rule, or should I stick with Rawr?

I like this; either we can swiftmend proc rejuvs at a hilarious higher amount, or not swiftmend them at all.

I really don't know which one should I use. As far as I know Rawr rating Glyph better than Ick's....

thanks in advance for any guidance you might give me.

Armor is a very powerful stat to have, as it can increase both your mitigation and your threat (armor is translated into AP because of Armored to the Teeth). It also has a fairly powerful Use, giving you a substantial amount of dodge.

The Rotting Thumb can also be good if your dodge is a bit on the low end, but if it's not, definitely go with the Glyph.

New 80 Blood DPS DK, in the process of moving from quest gear into better stuff.

Is there a good level 80 vendor / easy to move into bare minimal gear list? Not the end great stuff, just the still has that new level 80 smell gear

RagasLS · 03/26/10, 12:23 PM

You don't have an ArPen proc trinket, thus you should be gemming agi unless you can get around 900-1000 passive ArPen rating. Please correct me if i'm wrong, but I remember this being discussed long time ago on one of the threads here - I am not sure why the OP recommends gemming ArPen at 400 ArPen even without ArPen trinekt.

Why can't we run with resist on normal mode Sindrogosa?

@toxicdoggy

I think its a matter of "dependant on your gear and spec specifically - check the spreadsheet" is really the most correct answer.
As you have observed its a dps gain for you ar lower amounts of ArP to gem - I, by chance (hit the wrong gem) found out its a gain for me even before the 640 mark - I think I had 450 roughly when it was a gain - and I did indeed see a not insignificant gain when changing all my agi gems to arp gems in the spreadsheet.

I also think it is highly dependant on buffs - or rather, debuffs on the boss - as when I switched on Sunder armor (to simulate the gain if my fellow hunter brought a worm instead of me) ArP was a greater gain - which makes sense, as we know that the more oyu have the better it is..

hmm

come to think of it.. ArP is like cake then..

ooh sidetracked..

Anyway, yes it does make sense, and no it isn't necessarily something that one tool picks up that the other doesn't.

I'm needing help on what I might be doing wrong to be around1.5 to 2k below a similarlly geared mage in our guild. We ran 10m ICC and he outperformed me on every fight. I am doing the right rotation ABx4 and Abarr if it procs. Using all cd's at the beginning of the fight etc. Things get even worse if theres any movement. I'm not looking for handholding just some tips or advice on what I could be doing wrong.Whether its spec or gear or whatever. I plan on talking to him tonight when he gets back and pick his brain.

His char is The World of Warcraft Armory - Skylab @ Eldre'Thalas - Profileon eldre'thas if you need to compare and I am looking up the wws now.
Thank you for any help.

Ok I'm having a weird problem. Before 3.3.3 came out I was specced http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?deat...E,HpF3eO,11623 (17/0/54)

Now when 3.3.3 came out I specced http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?deat...GyqM,HpF,11623 (0/17/54)

My gear, gems, enchants.. nothing else has changed. This is my Armory and it's been that way since before 3.3.3
The World of Warcraft Armory - Jericho @ Wildhammer - Profile

That is exactly the same as it was before I respecced (the other spec is my pvp spec)

I didn't lose marginal DPS... I lost about two to three thousand DPS. 2-3k from respeccing to a spec that was supposed to INCREASE my dps lol. I'm just really confused.

I used to be able to hit 5-6k just sitting there kind of fumbling over my rotation while switching targets lol.. now even in sustained aoe I barely hit 5-6k and I was doing 9-10k sustained aoe before.

Hi fellow kitties, i was just wondering about a thing. Tonight in Icc25 hc this chest dropped: [Ikfirus's Sack of Wonder] , and i rolled on it because i thought it was better, but according to the Rawr program the tier 10 chest is better for me. And when i say better i mean it makes me do higher dps. I know I lose my set bonus but even if I equipped tier10 shoulders (which I plan to get) my dps was lowered. So what do you think? Also what trinket do you think i should try to get? Here is my armory link: The World of Warcraft Armory - Emeriha @ Shattered Hand - Profile
