I've tried without luck to find any thread on this, so i guess i'll just ask it here:
has there been any thread giving insight on using voidwalker to tank sarth? i've seen some youtube clips, and would like to know the talent builds/strats on doing it. sounds fun :P

WWS
Armory (Totem and Boots are new, didn't have those at that raid)

I would like to thank you posters on these forums. This thread and the TTT Elemental thread have been very helpful. Thank you thank you. This is my attempt to bring some info into the thread.

I did 5596 DPS on Patchwerk last night. My previous record was 4900.
I didn't change my rotation between those 2 raids. The gear improvements were that I got the T7-25 head and T7-25 legs.
But this time I used Searing Totem most of the fight. There was another Elemental shaman there who had Totem of Wrath up for us. And the Searing Totem did 7% of my total damage. That would be roughly 390 DPS
Also, the disc priest kept casting Power Infusion on me. That has never happened to me before. Are you guys familiar with this method? Casting Power Infusion on the top DPS player in the raid. Sounds cool, but I don't know if its most beneficial for an Ele Shaman.

P.S. This is my first post. I will edit this for clarity afterwards if needed.

Has anyone actually sat down on the PTR with some various classes, and actually tested what debuffs will cause the BS glyph to work? Just because it works on a test dummy does NOT mean its going to work on a raid boss.

All I've been able to test is Infected Wounds (does NOT trigger it), and Chains of Ice (WILL trigger it). I'd be interested mostly in Frostfire Bolt, even though no mage with even semi decent gear is going FFB these days, Chilblains, and Slow.

Second: Absolutely. When solo, CoE has roughly the same benefit as CoA (not counting talents and stuff like Molten Core). But the key is it's a force multiplier. It adds DPS to *everyone* in the raid that does magical damage. So yes, one of you should absolutely have CoE up when there's no Moonkin or Unholy DK. Preferable an Afflic Warlock that has it talented, and lacking that then someone who doesn't use it for MC procs.

Thanks for taking the time to reply - it's cleared my questions up nicely.

I copied my hunter to the ptr, and was quite pleased with the current changes in the survival tree. I dropped glyph of Steady and glyph of Serpent, picked up Glyph of Explosive Shot[4% more chance to crit] and Kill Shot[reduced cooldown by 6 seconds]. Then I dropped all talent points designed to increase Serpent damage, and picked up all Black Arrow relevant talents. Spent a little time on rotation, and my average dps on test dummies increased by 300.
I'm pretty happy with that, but I feel a cloud of nerf looming over my head. With all things considered, being top dps in my guild for 6 months, I've had a fun ride.
Currently 0/17/52 I meditate with the 2 useless points

Hi together,

after gathering some decent defense gear we are planing to try Sartharion 3D 10 man with me as main tank.
Please note i never have tanked sartharion, i have little tanking experience and normaly i am a damage dealer.

We already killed Sarth+3d 25man (not me as MT), i am familiar with the fight and i have read tons of guides.
Still i have two open questions: 1. On what does the choice of the spec rely? (Currently i am leaning towards the unholy build because i am familiar with the unholy tree.)
2. What are cooldowns should be used in which order to mignate sarths breaths?

Thanks & Regards, Falx

"Best" OS3 10man spec: WorldofWarcraft.com -> Info -> Classes -> Death Knight -> Talent Calculator

Cooldowns are saved until the 3rd drake lands. Everyone uses them in a different rotation. I used Bone Shield first with Monarch Crab for prolonged uptime. Then AMS, IBF, if BS is back up - that, if not AMZ.

And you will only be using these cooldowns on breaths. You'll also want external cds ready, possibly a Holy Priest and Holy Paladin. You will want to use each in conjunction with your own (IBF + Pally cd), etc.

Stop attacking once Twilight Torment is debuffed on you. Keep IT up and Blade Barrier for the extra parry and enough RP to keep your cooldowns going.

Glyphs - IT/AMS/Bone Shield.

Make sure you have *tons* of stam for this role.

Kintaru · 03/22/09, 9:10 PM

So since this thread has no order in it at all, I was wondering if someone could tell me the typical DW rotation for a 0/32/39 build thats used on live. Thanks.

Gilgamesh69 · 03/22/09, 9:20 PM

First time poster, long time lurker. I apologize if this has come up in any other thread, but I am trying to find the perfect PvP build for the Arcane/Fire mage.

Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft
*I apologize edited for correctness

This is my idea for an optimal PvP build. Constructive/Destructive criticism is appreciated. Thanks.

Allicill · 03/22/09, 9:20 PM

i would llike to have authorization to be able to post on the forum. Am i missing something on what to do? Thnx for your time

Revelations · 03/23/09, 12:03 AM

Didnt really thought arms would make it through.
Now I have to slash all my leather-hit gear and get stuff with alot of str/ap/arp/crit/xp.

How much does arp-rating get boosted and the hit-cap rating for 2h is 8% on lvl 83 bosses right?

Bukama · 03/23/09, 4:08 AM

I didn't read the whole thread, but used the searchfunction without any success, so I ask directly: Is there any possibility to track the damage done in Phase 3? WWS etc don't show it up, so I don't know any possibilty to watch out the "bad dragoncontrollers", who still can not do damage the right way
