Hello everyone. Yesterday I got my 4th T13 piece. On target dummy my dps is only ~20.500.. I have to improve it or I will loose place in raid. Here is link to my armory: Jezabal @ Doomhammer - Game Guide - World of Warcraft. I have 2760 haste rating at the moment, I might get around 35% haste but I can not reach 3970 rating. On raid I do not have Dark Intelect.

My latency: ~50ms (home) and ~60ms (world)

My opening is: Volcanic Potion, trinkets, shadowfiend, MB, VT, SW:P, DP, MF..

I have to improve lots thus any tips for me?

I'm the Rleader for a Heroic 10 man guild, this destro lock we've been using is having serious issues pulling the aoe we need on H Yor, should he be going affliction? if so, what other fights should I have him go affliction? Single target, hes nasty, but on fights with adds..dps drops considerably....

so i have both No'Kaled, the Elements of Death(raid finder) and fear was wondering which to use i believe the axe does more dmg just not sure i just came back to wow and kinda forgot all the rogue math and everything.

I think it would come down to you, your gear, and your glyphs. Possibly clip the FS after the LvB, then ES when your shocks come off CD would be what I would do, but greater minds than mine may say otherwise.

has anyone done research if heroic [Morningstar of Heroic Will] is better than normal [No'Kaled, the Element of Death] in either main hand, off-hand, or both hands? or is there a link to a page with info on this that i could not find? any help would be much appreciated

The reason I bring this up is because I was reading on how Festering Strike of an Unholy DK acts in much of the same way, but the ticks from diseases do not recalculate upon FS but retain the original snapshot. Was hoping that Rend and MS performed in the same way as Diseases and FS.

Is arcane a viable build? There are some posts at the beginning of this thread that say no.

I do it like this: (ignoring cooldowns, trinkets etc)

1 - AB until 20% mana (or even less)
2 - Evocation
3 - AB until 20% man (or less)
4 - AB - ABarage - AM until Evocation (mana always at 20% or less)
5 - Evocation
6 - back to step 3

Step 4 is what kills my DPS. Trying to proc AM with the minimum amount of AB so that there is just enough mana for a few ABs, until Evocation is up.

In terms of complexity, I think whereas the spriest and moonkin have to manage DOTs carefully, the Arcane mage has nothing to worry about, except mana. The problem is mana is vital for casting something, anything.

thanks to the both of you. I understand now.

I have created a discussion thread on EU Forums for MoP Talents discussion. It may be a little premature, but I think we do need to start theorycrafting on it sooner or later, since the latest MoP Talent calculator update seems to hint at how the recent changes may be permanent, or at the very most slightly tweaked before Beta.

I just recently race changed to Troll and have been looking trying to get the most out of my dots through haste. I am not very good at understanding how either Blood lust or the Troll racial affect haste and dot ticks. Doing some simulation with the heroic gear out there in any reasonable setup that I can find including using the heroic Insignia of the corrupted mind trinket proc the haste numbers cap around 6000 haste rating (6251 Haste rating with proc using the set up that i chose and 2973 without proc). Givin this extreme amount of haste i would like to find out with Troll BS + NP + Raid + Heroism how many ticks are possible the chart in this forum only shows up to 1425 Haste a 4th tick. Can anyone add to this and show how many ticks you can get for you're normal dots (Living bomb, Pyroblast) using the numbers I posted up to 6251 haste? I was also trying to find out how many ticks i could get out of combustion. The chart in the forums shows +3/3 Netherwind Presence and 5% Raid Buff using this chart i show a 5th tick at 4364 and a 6th tick at 5548 haste rating. Can anyone add to this I am trying to find the numbers with +Bloodlust, 3/3 Netherwind Presence, and 5% Raid Buff up to 6251 haste Also with +Troll BS, 3/3 Netherwind Presence, and 5% Raid Buff, and last but not least +Troll BS, Blood lust, 3/3 Netherwind Presence, and 5% Raid Buff.

Thank you very much for reading my post any work is much appreciated.

Hey there,

my WL just dinged today and I was wondering, what is the optimal opening cycle as a demonology warlock? I generally want to use CoE, Meta, Immolation Aura, Demon Soul, Doomguard, Dots and Felstorm with a following pettwist, but in which order?
I'd appreciate any help/suggestions.

thanks

In the sims I can actually confirm this, it sims higher but that might be because, we scale so good with the mastery we get, in theory this is, but we depend highly on the proc rates of both No'Kaled and Vial of the Shadows if we go for that setup.
