Does it make sense to swap trinkets? Let's say I have 384 lvl Compass and 397 lvl Sigil which are pretty much the same. What I am thinking is use proc from Sigil and swap it to Compass. Wait for 1 min and swap to Sigil back and use it in 30 sec again and so on.
Another question is how to avoid energy cap? I am using Adrenalin Rush while at low energy and still reaching 100 and losing a lot of energy. Any other tips? Does SS usage depends on weapons speed?

You've never been able to swap trinkets during combat.

And energy capping happens regardless, nothing you can do but make the best out of it

Hi ppls, i need a help to decide change or not my gear

I'm currently using [Runestaff of Nordrassil] but today I could gather [Rathrak, the Poisonous Mind], it's worth considering that I can replace [Orb of the First Satyrs] offhand?

So, I've just got the Blade of the Unmaker and I'm not sure what weapon I should wear right now.

I've the phase 1 dagger right now. My main spec would be Combat, second spec subtlety.

I'm pretty sure that changing the weapons for subtlety would be DPS plus, obviously because of the higher weapon dps.

About combat I've honestly no idea, swapping Vengeance for the Blade of the Unmaker would leave me with less Main Gauche procs, thats why I'm asking.

Edit: Would it maybe even be worth to spec Assasination because of the weapon?

i had originally thought deep wounds procc'd the tentacle, but I went 1200 ticks without it proccing

tested each of these seperately on the dummy

it appears to only proc from offhand white hits when in the offhand, but my sample size could just be too small

Not sure how highly i should value raw sp in this list.

How good spelldamage is depends on your gear. At low ilvl it can be better than hit, at higher itemlevel hit gets almoust equal to int and better than spelldamage. Of corse only unter 1742 hitrating . So your statweight should be at actual content:

Int > hit till cap > SPELLDAMAGE

But please use simcraft and enable scaling. The scaling of mastery/haste/crit can change completely by just having one more buff or not..

2 questions.

1) Is your guild still farming H:Firelands?

2) Are you the person currently working on [Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest] in your guild?

If the answer to either of these questions is "No.", then you should by all means try to acquire [Rathrak, the Poisonous Mind], and [Dragonfire Orb] as well.

Is unfortunately not have the time available to go and clean up Firelands

Thanks for the reply, if someone has something else to add I thank

And I can add that Int differ from Spell Power only because of the crit rating provided by Intellect.

In term of weight, Sp > Haste/Crit/Mastery

Ok. So I've been going over my logs comparing two different reforge settings. The first one is with being forged into haste. I believe I carried around 1900 haste. The second is with me reforging out of haste and into crit or mastery while prioritizing crit.

Now, my uptime was very similar with a 99.3% and a 99.1% between the two fights and the longer(2nd one) was 262 casts vs 227 casts. Was my difference in DPS just RNG based? I can probably attribute this to poor CD management with rapid fire as well since I overlapped and didn't get all of heroism or rapid fire off. But what's making my first log have such high spike damage and then my 2nd log so flat?

Is there something that looks out of place?

SS usage depends on energy and global cooldown. Weapon speed concerns auto attacks and poison applications.

What is a global cooldown for SS? 1 sec?
I thought that it is zero with glyph of SS - Glyph of Sinister Strike - Spell - World of Warcraft
What I have found is that I can use my energy over-cap to do more RS. In any case, I am loosing this energy so why not to get extra combo points with it?

The other night I received [Insignia of the Corrupted Mind]. Rawr has me running 2028 haste, and 2xt13(don't have a 4th piece yet). If I switch my trinkets in position does it put the Insignia on ICD, and if so, is it worth it to do that to try and sync that up with my first Combustion. In theory I could have a 10 stack of Stolen Time and the trinket; or would using Combustion on the first decent dot stack if the trinket procs be better.
