Pretty sure 20% or more is easily reachable, I have 17 in mostly blues already and I'm using several pieces that have no haste on them.
I'd say not being hitcapped is having less influence than ever before. The numbers simcraft has pumped out showing hit having low value seem to be pretty correct. Only reason I'd ever consider aiming for cap at all costs would be if I'm given the responsebility to dispel something from bosses, though I'm not sure if it even needs cap any more.

Plugging your character stats into Mew will provide you with stat weightings more specific to your character. For me it normally gives Agil > Mastery > Crit/Haste > Hit/Exp. This trend can also be seen on this blog: Fluid Druid Feral DPS Gear Wish List

Everyone's DPS has gone down with the launch of Cataclysm. This is all thanks to the stat degradation suffered as you level up from 80->85. In time your DPS will come back up and eventually surpass what you could do in Wrath of the Lich King as gear progresses.

Is there a version of Rawr that currently works for Prot Pallys? If not, is there another program like it that people are now using?

So for Sv hunters after hit cap what would the stat priority be... from what i understand its mastery > crit > haste?

Druid are best gem and enchanted with haste?

Hi,

I use the following to pull single target:
Outbreak - Plague strike - Blood boil - rune strike (if available)
I run with guildies and they are already teached - if the saw the yellow circle, start nuke :-)

I have question. We run now Cata 5 man normal, but now we had gearscore 333, so we start the heroic soon.
During the normal I can tank everything with same talent-tree.
But in HC (or later raid) neccessary to make two different talet tree (one for packs one for boss)?

Current sims indicate Fire to be better but depending on the fight, frost can be more beneficial. It's best to run with frost and fire as specs so you have frost's burst/survivability and fire's mobility/superior aoe.

Healed a Druid through BRC last night. And without my typical SP or Ret I was having more issues with mana. Current gear is around 340 gemmed for int haste. I started running oom on trash due to low dps. Not wanting to waste pots/tide/JC trinks I respeced to Tcurrents.

When it crits its good. But watching my mana go down one and up two most of the time is not really encouraging. Maye if the cast times on LB was not 2sec+. Someone refresh my mind, is the 5 sec after casting regen slow still around? I know we regen just as much in combat as out of combat but what about casting. Are we hurting ourselves by shooting Lbolts? I tried to test this but never really had a good place for it.

We have no meditation talent... Question is... Stand there or lightning bolt for mana.

I imagine it will depend on your level of spirit...

I've seen a lot of people speaking about mana problems, but I just can't seem to relate. When first hitting 85, absolutely, there was huge mana problems. However, since getting mostly 346 gear from heroics / reputations, that problem seems to have gone away.

From my observations, greater healing wave has little to no use. The only time I ever cast it is for a nature's swiftness. Healing goes as follows... spam healing wave. If you start to get behind on a target taking a lot of damage, Unleash elements, healing wave, instantly riptide (for dual benefit) and pump a Healing surge or two into them.

As far as stats, I've focus Int / Spirit / Crit. Mastery does indeed feel pointless at the moment. Haste also isn't what it used to be in my opinion. We don't need to get heals off as quickly as we needed to before, but instead work on longevity. As previously stated, we don't have a meditation ability, so spirit is important for our MP5.

All reforging has gone to take away from mastery, and sometimes haste to give more spirit / crit. This has been extremely effective thus far. Also, agreed with the previous post about Telluric Currents. It may be viable in heroics, but certainly is not in raids. The talent is situational at best (for example magmaws chain phase)

Another piece that I've heard about a lot is that healing rain felt useless. This is far from true in my experiences. The healing experience is much more relaxed in Cat, and requires more finesse... rather than the whack-a-mole that everyone has been used to in the past. Your raid can be slowly healed back up with effective heals, including healing rain. With a consolidated stacked group, a healing rain + a UE chain heal will top off a good amount of raid damage. Chain heal is by no means a spammable ability anymore, but I still find it effective in combination with healing rain.

why would you bother to change Spirit to Hit when with Elemental Precision gives 100% of our Spirit as hit rating?
