The staff has never shown up as the explicit damage source unless the damage being duplicated was a dot. Duplicated direct damage spells appear identical to a normal cast of the spell.

Not sure if it's still working, although there may be some fan updates/reworks running around out there.

Thats it! Thanks heaps

I was actually curious if anyone had considered running 3 points in incite. It seems viable with the new stat priority, the 2pc bonus and the fact that HS is 3rd on my damage. I'll run some tests today, but I was wondering if anyone has already looked into it.

Some rudimentary math was run around the time that 4.3 hit showing that they were more or less equal on single target... but Deep Wounds is obviously much, much better for AoE.

I don't know if anyone has done a more detailed analysis, though.

Anyone can help me with this??

I am just wondering if someone might take some time and maybe explain to me how to make my DK more productive in say a PVP setting as I don't really do alot of raids.

My issues are as follows.

Correct Rotation. I know it is really not as useful as it once was, but I am one of those who needs to follow a set cast sequence. Currently miine is Death Grip Macro'd with Chains of Ice. So I pull them and hold em at the same time, then I use BS, HS, RS. After that it is whatever is on available.

Should I be Combining attacks? What I mean is tie 2 or 3 different attacks to one button. I know some people do and I have seen a couple macros.

The Glyphs I currently have are as follows....

Prime= DC, HS, RS
Major= Vamp Blood, Chains of Ice, Bone Sheild
Others= Death Gate and 2 empty's.

I don't have any special trinkets or rings. Only what is available on the PVP sellers in Old Town.

Here are my Talent Specs.

I am lost to hell and back when it comes to Key Binding, although I also hear it helps. Currently whatever is on my Number Pad from 1 to = on the top of my keyboard is my attacks.

Any help for me would be Greatly appreciated.

I am 85 Blood DK
Here is my Talent Tree and my Toon

It's really pity a fury warr appears to be severely crippled compared to arms in 4.3.

That was not so obvious on normals, but with HC progression, I find my warr in the lower part of dps charts for most fights.
Ok, it's only 3 for me, but WoL tells the same - arms simply outperform fury on _all_ the HC fights by big margin.

Looks like only a matter of time when my RL will tell me to spec into arms, which I don't like at all.

There's also the possibility in which you get frozen into a tomb as Arms and you lose the opportunity to get some high damage doing.

I don't want to burst that bubble but Arms is also significantly better on single target right now (referring to Ultraxion logs) so he should be easily outdps'ing you on Hagara as well in similar gear. Ultraxion and Hagara are the only 2 fights though where the difference is less than 10%. On all other fights fury isn't even remotely close.

delete post, got the wrong thread.

Thanks for the heads up. Didn't know this was PVE. Someone had just mentioned that this was a good site for help and you that have helped have done a good job. Will try those tricks of the trade. Thanks alot!!!

Here is a link to the armory:

Working on getting landslides right now too.

403 Gurth in Arms is going to outperform H Morch/N Morch SMF in almost any scenario, as would 403 Gurth/Any modern-ish 2h as Titan's Grip.

I just ordered the newest book, Curse of the Worgen. I can't wait to read it!

Jeremy · 02/03/12, 5:40 PM

That is interesting about the SimCraft errors about SMF. I am glad to see SMF on the rise, as it's been on the backburner for most warriors since 4.2. But, I wouldn't change anything in my post to bond32. N Gurth with Arms is going to be flat-out better for a significant portion of DS. SMF with two H Morchok axes? You could probably switch then.

I rest my case about whether bond32 should switch from Arms to Fury.

I have cleared Black Temple this reset with a couple friends, so it will have to wait until next reset. I'm not 100% sure how to avoid Spirit Shocks even when hitting an interrupt, since it felt like the casts were somewhat random, but I should be able to figure it out by attempting it a few times using your explanation. Thanks for taking the time

Why is armor with resilience not ideal for PVE? I would think resilience would be an excellent stat for raiding. The gear from both honor and conquest points are loaded with AG, Hit, and Crit as well as Res and the sets seem equally suitable for raiding as well as PVP.
