With the release of 346 gear today (JP gear at 85) you can see most the DPS plate has crit on it. With the reforging as you have set now it would be best for us to reforge the crit to haste (where haste is not already present). Is this correct?

We'll be reforging chest, hands, and belt (mastery to haste and keep crit)? And should we change head mastery to crit? We'll be changing 4 pieces!!

EDIT: Oh, and great job with the initial post. It is extremely helpful. Thank you for your time in putting it together. It's much appreciated.

as far as i have seen, Limited ptr use and dummy test, using 2x 1h weapons seems to be no longer feasible in wotlk gear i saw a dps increas from my 2x Scourgeborne Waraxe vs the 2h Distant Land, it also seems the stakethrower is doing better than zods but i cant say that conclusively.

I was noticing a DPS increase with Stakethrower also. The top end damage on the gun is what seals it as top spot for those of us who can't get HLK 25.

I also am swapping out my 271 Oathbinder for heroic Bloodfall.

IMO, the ability queue system is going to be my biggest bane when this patch goes live.

Just to clarify are you saying that the distant land was better than dual wielding waraxes? Did you reforge them, or are they both in pristine states?

I was under the impression that heroic Zod had a lower end and higher top end. Although heroic stakethrower is a slower weapon.

Hi all, I have been following along silently for a while now, and I really enjoy the discussion and breakdown of the Cataclysmic future.

However, I did a quick Thread Search, and could not find info on the Ashen Verdict ring come 4.0.1. Am I correct to assume that the current AP and Crit Rate will drop from the Endless Vengeance ring? And if so would it then be best to use the Endless Might version instead? If this is addressed elsewhere I apologize, and please point me to the correct place.

Has anyone "finalized" our talent/glyph/gear choices for 4.0 this Tues? Obviously these will change as Blizz nerfs/buffs in the months to come, but is there a consensus starting point? Landsoul's thoughts are MOST desirable for me! Thanks for this site, I LOVE it!

I am wondering the same thing, but more in line of stat comparisons/gemming. I have a set of gear which I assume will be decent for arms or fury, but I have no idea how to gem them. I am guessing with blue being a hit stat, that every socket bonus is worth hitting. It just seems really hard to determine the weight of mastery, crit, hit (for fury), haste, and strength at the moment. I am guessing fury will be going for haste/hit, and not worrying quite as much for crit due to not being able to have deep wounds at 80 and the rage generation changes. Arms itemization seems more confusing, especially with mastery. I have read most of the more recent pages on EJ, but there doesn't seem to be too much thought into this. Are there any other semi-reliable resources tackling more immediate changes?

Assuming that 21agi 3% crit is still better, but I might be mistaken because of haste synergy with many of the new talents - and your discovery that black magic is better than berserking for offhand.

Just off looking at them, I'd bet they are pretty damn close.

In my opinion, just getting a ton of macros won't really address any problems of being overwhelmed. It would be better if you could narrow down which abilties are giving you trouble adjusting to, and then getting macros for those particular abilities. There are a few generic macros which are certainly worth having though.

Useful macros for warriors - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft

As well as googling around will probably lead you to various threads on forums which will contain quite a few macros. Although, I am unsure if any macros will be impacted by the arrival of 4.0 on Tuesday.

Hi,

I have a few questions:

- Does haste descrease the time betwen fever ticks?

- Does the scarlet fever count as another desease for the SS?

- In that case the IBT will let us have the BB for free and up all the boss with no penalty. SS + glyph + 4 deseases

Isn't that beter than MS or RP mastery?

Thanks

Is there currently a proposed raid spec for hunters come 4.0.1? Or are things still too unsure to even begin to guess? I have been saving higher end gear that I have started to replace for certain stat swaps, just in case.. But at this point, I dont even know if I should be survival come 4.0.1
