I use it and it pops quite frequently. wondering what y'all would consider for that to be a DPS up or down.

I would recommend that you use the Simulationcraft tool to check it on your own gear and verify the changes, as this will save you some gold and frustration from testing in real time situations. That being said, I assume that you are using the Demo spec primarily for rDPS and/or if you are lilke me, actually enjoy playing the spec. Black Magic, even if it is an pDPS upgrade for you, would be a rDPS downgrade for your raid. So I wouldn't personally recommend it for you.

I have a question...I currently have a spell power of 2802 and a haste of 389 Im having a hard time figuring out what Im doing wrong because im not pumping out nearly as much DPS as I know that I can. On average in a 10 man ICC run I put out about 4.5k Im using the ABspamMbarr rotation I have just hit a wall and cant figure it out any help will be appreciated.

So am I correct to assume that if you're below expertise cap as a Unholy DK it's ok? I've been told to gem expertise and then I've been told not to.

Ahh I see - thanks for the clarification.

Hello.
In my experience missdirect only effects one target and not the second or third. So when you use volly you are hiting a lot of guys who are not under the missdirection spell. now if missdirect were and aoe that would be awsome

Erm... all the item links in the OP are broken!

The OP says if I have to Mangle the mob myself, [Idol of the Corruptor] is the best Idol slot item.

My question is, since Mangle has been buffed to last 1 minute instead of just 12 seconds, is [Idol of the Corruptor] still the best if I have to Mangle, or is [insert other missing idol link(s) here] better now that the duration of Mangle is longer and I don't have to do it as often?

Unfortunately, with the broken links in the OP, I don't remember what the other good Idols are supposed to be.

Edited: corrected references to the Idol slot as "trinket" and reworded the post/question.

Hey guys first time post, long time reader, I'm a long time mutilate rogue, I've never raided as combat, but I just acquired Black Bruise and Keleseth's Seducer (in one run, and sorry I don't know how to link items.) I was wondering if there's a raid worthy spec for dual fists for rogues? I looked around on these forums for an answer before i posted but wasn't able to find anything... Thanks!

I understand your app handles poisons correctly so I thought this may be a bug or simply a difference in modelling. For reference, Ald's sheet shows an ~30 dps increase.

+1 same problem, we are waiting for answers...

In advance thanks

If you're die-hard combat (I am), the path is (assuming you're to hit poison cap and expertise dodge cap) AGI unless you're bumping up against crit cap, otherwise Armor Pen? Or is there something else determining the cutoff point. My gear doesn't -quite- get along with Aldriana's sheet just yet, so I'm still doing some of this seat of the pants.

You will want to have a certain amount or armour penetration on your gear before starting to gem for it. I don't know the exact number, since I haven't played combat in a while. Might be in the region of 400ish. but someone correct me if you know better.

I've never raided as combat, but I just acquired Black Bruise and Keleseth's Seducer

Keleseth's Seducer is a slow offhand, which pretty much makes is an enhancement exclusive. You could use Splintershard (Sindragosa 10) if you wanted to go with fists, but by using fists you'll run into crit-capping problems much faster than with other weapons.

Stuckpig · 04/10/10, 6:22 PM

thanks crevan, what about using fist/daggs, black bruise/heartpierce be a good combo?

lairpie · 04/10/10, 7:13 PM

Idol of the corrupter wasn't best for tanking or dps before the mangle debuff got extended and it still isn't. One of the first 2 idols mentioned in the post is the best for any situation. The discussion of the rest of the idols is only relevant if you don't have the badges to get the ICC or TOC idols and happen to have one of the old ones sitting around or something.
