Hi, considering this :

Living Bomb damage over time has been increased by approximately 10%, and explosion damage has been increased by approximately 120%.

i was wondering if it would be worthwhile to glyph living bomb instead of molten armor or not? In the past it wasn't but since the up i was wondering.
Someone's already crunched some numbers?

Thanks.

Hi m8s, i see that part of this dicussion about bis is in "default" Elemental discusion here: http://elitistjerks.com/f79/t110309-...n_patch_4_2_a/ but i like to see some tips here for next content (4.3.) bis gear sets, do you have any?

What part of T set we will dont use in this content?

More intelligence makes Fireball and Arcane Blast hit harder, but I can also cast more Arcane Blasts in succession with more intelligence thanks to Mage Armor. Maybe static is a bad word to use in that situation, but unless the way Arcane works got changed, it still scales phenomenally well with higher ilvl gear. As long as the options in your Rawr setup are sound, then Rawr is correct and like I said the difference in DPS is smaller than with lower ilvl gear.

With the % increase on Incinerate dmg on immolated targets, wouldnt Incinerate glyph outperform Glyph of imp? especially at higher lvl gear, can someone confirm that for meh, Im still learning to use simulationcraft, no really good at it yet, but logically, on heavy movement fights, Glyph of imp would be better, coz the imp doesnt stop casting, but on light, no movement, fights, Glyph of incinerate should be better...

Shall i use the Glyph of Wild Growth? or replace it with Glyph of Healing Touch? WG was my trusted heal spell but they reduce its heal by %20 now. So my HPS will suck i think. What can you tell about these?

Any special tricks for Dragon Soul that is known from PTR already?

TradeWind · 11/29/11, 4:08 AM

BiS 4.2 gear right?

Well i have the same question, but i think yes, mastery will become more valuable than haste, but i guess we don't have to reforge all our gear to mastery, we have to try to be on both up, what i mean, don't lose to many haste.

Hey,

I noticed in the BiS thread that landsoul had mentioned using haste items over mastery items as to help with rage gen. Is there a specific soft cap at which we would aim for and is it worth the sacrifice of hit for it and if so how low could we drop our hit as a rough estimate to make the haste increase viable due to the loss of white swings. I would have to run some numbers but I feel probably 14% min hit and probably around 6.5% haste would be a good scale for how even they would need to be as it seems any lower on hit you would lose rage gen. I have not run any numbers to support my claim just from a personal experience while messing around on the PTR.

Any suggestions or possible feedback would be great.

i thought ExS could not be "pushed" back or refreshed like a SS thru a CoS...but if used b4 the last ticks it would jus be overlapped like....1st ExS hits for 1 sec then 2nd ExS hits for 2secs...so ur only gettin 3 secs of Damage where as if a Cos or KC was used inbetween ur gettin 3 ticks of ExS then another 3 ticks....for a total of 6 secs of damage plus a CoS or KC....So itll look like ExS...KC...ExS..CoS...AS AS

This is a nerf.

Okay, thanks for the clarification. Another thing too, grats on having an item named for you. That's quite an honor in my opinion.

toadboy96 · 11/29/11, 6:31 PM

I know there is a ilvl and stat loss using the LFR dragonsoul tier gear, but I was wondering would it be worth using that new stuff for the 2 piece set bonus OR should I just stick with my old firelands 4 piece? What is the better DPS?

For FIRELANDS tier, I have Heroic shoulders, heroic legs, heroic chestpiece and regular helm for the 4 piece

and for DRAGON SOUL I have the RAID FINDER Gloves & Shoulders

FIRELANDS set bonus (2) Set: Your battle shout ability increases all physical damage you deal by 10% for 12 secs (4) Set: Your Raging Blow ability has a 30% chance to trigger a fiery attack, dealing 100% instant weapon damage as fire.

DRAGON SOUL SET BONUS: (2) Set: Heroic Strike costs 10 less rage while Inner Rage is active.

Thank ya.

Hey,

so we are skipping Pauldrons of Radiant Glory on our set items, right?

Btw, with first set bonus, judgment will be second in our prio list, so glyphing will be needed and tested.

Have a nice one,

Jagro
