I received a shard tonight and upgraded my apparatus. It is giving 1875 when I proc it with 5 stacks, for those who are interested.

1800? that's lower than normal. are you sure it's not 2800? also be sure that this is correct via the character sheet and not tooltip.

This is true, but BoD was changed to have this behaviour at the same time as all of our other DoTs back in 4.0.1.

HI.
First off i didnt find any solution for my problem.

Everytime i calculate my dps with FD, Haste always comes out on the top.
With 4pT11 or not. I'm using the FD settings from whitefyst and iam really wondering about those results.
Sometimes haste is even better than Agi.
Since i have about 1.6k haste from gear its even more disturbing that haste is rated so high for me, especially that i know crit > haste at my haste levels.
Does anyone have a explanation for this ?

PS : Character : shortstop eu-alleria

thanks in advance

i have a NOOB question,I have a fury warrior and i am hit capped @ 28% i got into a discussion last night with someone on my server who was saying that i was STUPID for being hit capped @ 28%,i was under the impression the being hit capped with a fury warrior was to maximize his DPS since you never miss with either hand,If you don't need to be hit capped @ 28% what is the optimal hit percent to get to...

here is a link to my toon i know my gear isn't the best but with all the reforge and an ELIXER OF ACCURACY i am hit capped @ 28%

ok so i just had a question or two. in my 10man group im pulling around 20-22k dps on almost every fight but im thinking that i could be doing more.

my rotation is i use all my CDs after the 4th AB then go down to 35% mana, Evo use flame orb to get AM procs and AB 2-3 times then use AM. i do that for about 2 mins till all my CDs are up then i do it all again.

my haste is a little low. is haste>mastery untill AB hits 1sec without lust or anything?

if someone could help me out that would be great

thanks

Have you read:

[Cataclysm] Warrior FAQ - 4.2 - Read while patching, before posting.

All the answers are there. You do not need 28% hit and all your stats and spec needs adjusting

I'm playing a 61 pally atm but I've noticed a few things I'm having trouble with my DPS in 5 mans.
Positing after the pull and targeting / assisting the tank / focus for next target are my 2 basic problems Where is the best position to be with a bunch of mobs around the tank? I'm sure my positioning problem will be fixed with practice and but it always seems that I'm having trouble acquiring new targets after the last target dies. Also I seem to never get Hammer of Wraith & Exorcism off quick enough. Any recommendations on tactics or macros is greatly appreciated.

until you drop your 4pceT11, you prob wont have to worry about haste. at the best you would aim for 1sec AB under lust (which w/ 4 piece happens @ 443haste if I recall correctly). if I snag some time I'll simcraft your toon and PM you the results. rotation seems fine, burn phase evo to full conserve phase for 2mins repeat. pretty basic rotation

only quick thing I can see is that you are missing ~100hit. you may want to reforge DMC to hit (will give 128) then you could reforge the hit off your neck or hit->haste/crit on wand or something. hit is a little over double the stat weight of mastery

Is their a specific reason why it seems a lot of Demonology locks are picking the Corruption glyph over the Incinerate glyph as the original posting?

Anorek · 07/14/11, 2:07 PM

I saw at the start for single target rotation, UD/non UD, there are two versions of each. I might have missed that part, but does that depend on some situation?

Ok. This might sound like s stupid question but I'm slightly confused about it, and am wondering if there is a straight forward answer to it. How much Hit do I need. I thought i was looking to get 8% Hit, reading under the Melee tab in your Character Frame. A guildie (Whom is not a Death Knight, I add.) told me that I needed to also stack hit until my Spell was hit capped too, which makes sense seeing ad Death Knights have Spell abilities. So I then proceeded to stack Hit until all three tabs, Melee, Spell, and Ranged are all Hit capped with a 0% Miss Chance. I feel like this is completely wrong and I have way too much Hit because I'm sitting at a little over 10% Hit now under the melee tab. Someone help me please? Lol. If He was wrong about that, that would be 2% Hit I could be putting into more Haste and/or Mastery.

2H frost needs 961 hit rating, which corresponds to 8% melee hit. This will also cap spell hit as well. DW Frost needs 601 hit rating, which is 5%. You get 3% from talents, totaling 8%. To get spell hit cap, one would need 820 rating. The 219 hit rating to reach this won't exactly be "wasted," but it is certainly better to try and reforge the points into haste/mastery.

Ranged hit rating doesn't matter for us. Offhand miss rate for DW can be ignored, completely not worth it.

Alright, so I'm DW and I'm at 851. I'm good then? Just a little over, which I can go change now that I know. Thanks for the help.
