How much haste do you need as demo before mastery gets better?

I realy have trouble getting the spreadsheet to import my data, I have enabled all macros and followed all other instructions written on the first page. After the 3 cells (name, server and site) it says "(disabled)" in a green box and I guess that's where the problem is. But i don't know what to do about it.

If someone could help me I would be very grateful.

Importing characters from the armory has not yet been included.

I'm not sure if the previous sims included the moonwell chalice in the Demonology profile. The current one sims it correctly with meta overlapping with the trinket on every use.

Hi i just got 378 dagger Avool's Incendiary Shanker and im a combat rogue. Was wondering if it will do more dps in main hand then Claws of Torment that I use as MH in combat. Can someone tell me? Coz on Training dummy i check both and it seemed that I can do more dps with 359 MH then with 378 Dagger.

I did but I guess I skipped that part. I'll try the fix you posted, thank you and I apologize.

In the spreadsheet mastery seems to be effecting dps per decimal point and not per whole point. I assumed mastery only worked per whole point. Sorry if this isn't the case!

Thank you for the in depth guide Jmickey. As per usual, when I see the 'single target DPS suggestion' for the pet, as I usually think "Lol as if that's true, what are these crackheads smoking" and then send them at a training dummy and end up eating a solid dose of humble pie.

Just for one expansion I would like for Demonology Warlocks to be able to use their Felguard because it has the highest single target DPS. I don't know, maybe I'm just weird for hoping that the main 'promoted' perk of Demonology is actually something that would be employed all the time or close to that.

Extremely usefull addon for multytarget figts (more than two) is the ForteXorcist DoT timer, it can track dots for more targets you can possibly dot at the same time.

My thought is that a single point in War Academy would be better than a single point in Incite, but I wanted to ask to make sure I wasn't missing anything.

Thank you.

I actually go piercing howl and 3/3 incite, for me it feels like I get more threat from this then when I went for 3/3 war academy and no incite, though I pop inner rage constantly and mash heroic strike

Perhaps its not my place, considering my guild isn't 7/7 yet.

But it seems to me the discussion of stats is really explained well in Cataclysm PvE Holy Paladin Theorycrafting - Forums - World of Warcraft by Lylthe.

To put plainly for the off stats from Int and Spirit:

Haste (until hero cap) > Crit > Mastery

I understand utilizing extra haste for extra ticks of Holy Radiance, but after 1000 ish rating, I feel padding Crit to utilize the procs is the way to go. Specifically with the 2x heal up from 1.5x. This affects healing directly, and essentially adds double mastery.

In my opinion mastery itemization is so useless because of the crit mechanics and the ability to build it with extra haste that a spirit/ mastery piece is less valuable than a crit/haste piece.

These are radical statements because I have researched alot of the top paladins and they are haste stackers straight out. Why is this?

I personally try to maximize intellect, minimize mastery. Focusing on gaining max spirit and then haste until ~1064 (comfortable lag time reaction to GCD cap when hero is poped) and then crit.

I'd love feed back
