not sure if this is where to post for things like this but, I have reserched about elemental, worked with people, changed things around in my gear and still im having issues with dps.

I am in all 359s minus my shoulders and still im only able to pull around 11-12 in raids and get upwards of 18 on bosses, i know the "rotation" and know when to use procs and whatnot but im still not able to push more numbers. what exactly am i doing wrong?

Hey guys just have a Arcane trinkets question. I currently have Theralion's Mirror (359), Bell of Enraging Resonance (372) and Soul Casket (359). Just wondering which 2 out of the 3 would be the best combo? Right now im running with TM and SC but ive seen a lot of high end Mages pairing TM and BoER lately.

Thank you for your comments...I will stick to what I have for now. Your explanations really helped me decide that it doesnt matter how much haste I do have, the latency is the problem.

I think there are more elegant ways to reach the haste breakpoint. The most important would be to pray for the trousers from totfw and use it instead off the shoulders from Omnotron. Together with the change of the relict to the crit/haste you can gem much more reasonably (only int or mixed int gems with all socket-boni). The amount of spirit you need is very dependent on you play-style so no comment on that.
Something on the line with this here

I read following on MMO forum:

There is curently a bug with pets focus (it seems to have mad regan) so trading Shark Attack for Wild Hunt will raise pet dps by about 1k (sick em' is usless cause of this bug)
hakai: the bug is basically that the pet regens focus stupidly fast with Wild Hunt, leading to dps boost since it rarely drops below 50%.
Pet respec is free, try it out.

Is this true?

The Moonkin Tier legs are another haste option that doesn't involve the RNG of Tof4W.

Heard about some tame bug, asking for confirmation.
Hunters can tame Vekniss Soldier. His Frenzy Aura will work on your party, but not on you. Pet will disappear forever upon death, can tame multiple to stables.

that's such a silly reason

I have been searching on the web for other tank healing druids but all i seem to find are druids that are almost strictly raid healers. Am I the only Tank healer druid out there or am I missing something?

Hello guys. I recently dinged 85 and I started reading some guides about tanking.
First of all can someone check my build? You can find it right here

To beging with, I am really confused about reforging! I mean, I just took some first gear from normals. Should I reforge to hit or mastery or parry? I am really confused! Is mastery playing a big role early game?

Thank you for your time

Hello.

I have an 85 Duel Wielding Frost spec DK.

I have been having a hard time getting the maximum DPS out of my build. I have an item level of 355 and 359 weapons.

I have good gear to sum it up.

What i am trying to figure out is what i should do to my hit cap. On the thread that was posted, it stated that white hit cap is 23% and yellow was 8%. I have the 8% hit rating on my DK currently. I was wondering if I should max that out to 23%. I think that would be a bad idea. The reason why is because for me to get that kind of rating would mean that i would just devote everything to hit rating! also that wouldn't matter as much because the majority of a dk's attacks are yellow.

I would like some information on this please. should i hit 23% or stay at 8% hit rating
ALSO

I was wondering what i should do with my expertise rating. the site says that if u attack in front it's 14% expertise to never miss and 6.5% rating to never miss when I'm behind. Now is this stat only for yellow attacks or is it for white and yellow attacks? and once again, should i max it to 14% expertise rating if i'm going to be attacking only the back of the boss?

Im wondering all these things because i want plenty of room for my mastery. I think the mastery percentage is cool and i would like some. also i cant get past 11k DPS on the Borian Hold boss and i dont know why.

For ten man raiding, where i would always be raiding with a boomkin would it not be wise to get about 1365 haste and then let the boomkins 5% or 640 haste get me to 2005. At that point loading up the rest with mastery. Does this seem logical?
