They're probably debating it back and forth. Some want it, some don't want it, so they'll leave it around for a while till they've gathered enough data to truly decide.

Small change to the OP: As someone pointed out to me, Bracer enchants in this tier give 170 Strength, so Leatherworking gives 330 Strength, as opposed to 320 that the other professions do.

Hey, what went of this?

It's some quite "crucial" information still remaining "TBD", for the sake of the community and to some extent myself I'd love to see it up soon. ^^

It feels like these forums (well at least Hunters) aren't even updated that much anymore... I find more information on mmochampion hunter section and various sources.

I am seeing the same in simulations of most kinds of bosses, and have decided to go for stacking Haste, even sacrificing Crit for plenty of it. So far, the results have been very favorable, makes the spec feel a tad less clunky too.

Gear with Haste being a rare sight, it might be a good idea to start looking for pieces with Haste on them natively. Preferably Haste / Hit or Exp, and as a second priority Haste / Crit.

As of 5.0.4 I have been blowing away the charts as an 85 with 60k steady dps. Now that 5.0.5 has hit I have 464 ilvl, followed this guide to a "t" and cant get over 35k so im obviously missing something. Im hoping by posting to get some help on getting back up to the dmg i was doing.

What happened to the EJ forums? Once being a superb source of information presenting and discussing results of well done studies hardened by facts and formulas, it has turned into presenting half baked thoughts and asking questions that 2 minutes of thinking and Google would solve. And now it's even used to advertise channels and what not?

Sorry for the rant especially to those running and trying to keep this up, but seeing such a change makes me really sad

so no useful how-to-spec topic for warlocks? why any other class got it?

Hi, I have a question - what are the best glyphs for Arcane Mage for PvE in MoP?

I have to admit that i'm so confused about this site, it used to be THE reference about Theorycrafting on a scale that no other website could be. Now I see 1 new post on the new class forum every 3 days, and it's most of the time a question.

Come back EJ plz.

By the way ... great guide Tyvi!

I wanted to note something you may wish to include in your Elegon section. Remorseless Winter both snares and stuns the Cosmic Spark adds in phase 3.

PS - Keep up the good work, and I totally agree about the dodge tinker!

Major Glyphs

[Glyph of the Hawk] - Increases all healing done to you and your pet by 10%. Useful in fights where there is periodic damage that needs to be healed through, especially in combination with the T45 Aspect of the Iron Hawk, which reduces damage taken.
[Glyph of Bestial Wrath] - Makes BW a survivability cooldown for your pet in case you find yourself in a fight where your pet t akes a lot of damage - losing the pet is a major dps loss for us.
[Glyph of the Beast] - In any fight thats over 5 minutes in length and on add switch fights, this glyph is invaluable as it frees you up from applying HM manually - at the cost of the first AS or KC (should be AS) being slightly less damage - but still more damage than applying HM manually would be.
[Glyph of Trueshot Aura] - In any fight that applies a debuff to your pet that can be cleansed with this glyph (like Heigan did in Naxx), this should be active, freeing up healers from having to cleanse your pet.
[Glyph of Hunter's Mark] - If you don't need to MD to your tanks, this will keep you almost off the aggro table at the cost of upping your pet, pro is that you can res your pet without costing a combat res, con is that you pet may die, hampering your dps immensely.
[Glyph of Explosive Shot] - In any fight where you need to do offenssive dispelling, this will make sure you aren't waiting for focus, and the 10 second CD is not a problem for any pve fight, as other offensive dispells also have a cd.

I don't know what happened there, but ya really messed up. ;P

Reading it through I think it should be obvious, I don't remember Explosive Shot being a dispell!
