I've done a search for this answer and haven't found it. With the change of both instant and wound poison being Redesigned to have its chance to be applied based on the speed of the weapon (frequency-based), can I assume now that instant poison is the way to go for a combat rogue? With it based on speed of the weapon now which poison should I use on mh and oh?

Im clueless how to make the spread sheet work, but if someone could test this that would be amazing. Thank you

I plugged it into the spreadsheet and unless I missed something, that gear/spec setup is 15 hit under cap. DPS breakdown:

Total: 5459.01
Hunter: 4270.79
Pet: 1188.22

In my opinion 0/37/34 is not a good spec to have.

hey guys, im playing the 51/2/18 spec for raids and ive been told i should be doing around 3k+ dps self buffed, but im only putting out 2.6k, here is a link to my armory The World of Warcraft Armory, if you guys could take a look at it and give me some thoughts on how i could improve this thatd be great

CKaz · 05/09/09, 10:41 PM

Thanks for thoughts Yessia, any thoughts to the talent build?

Or on mine - this is where I arrived at for level 60, Unholy
Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft

so i got this Extract of Necromantic Power trinket, never won anything else, and thinking about Titan-forged Rune of Audacity.
the extract does about 1.7% of my overall dmg, but im not sure 111 sp wouldnt make better
any tip?

Korghal · 05/10/09, 7:03 AM

Woho! Yesterday I finally got the Tiger mount! I'm 4k into revered with Zandalar, so I've been at it for a while. The question now is, should I continue to run ZG for the raptor?

Ishamael · 05/10/09, 7:26 AM

That depends entirely on how much you want the Raptor mount o_O

Thanks for posting that up, Winco. I would grow a vagina to have your babies, were it requested of me.

Andrick · 05/10/09, 9:49 AM

Is there no point where you have actually reached pure 100% ArP though and therefore you are only gaining some benefit from one of the procs?

Aqila · 05/10/09, 10:39 AM

I wonder what difference does weapon speed make for unholy.

The BiS weapons (pre-hardmode and hardmode) have a speed of 3.4, whereas the Furious Gladiator tier2 ones have 3.6. Can this make enough difference for the Furious weapon to climb a bit higher or even become BiS?

Your ArP is a bit low, but that will come quite easily when you get into ulduar. Your AP is a tad low, nothing a few gem changes can't fix.

I'd drop the hit gems in your belt for +16 str gems (+32 str = +64 AP) and enchant your gloves for +20 hit to put you at (-32 hit + 20 hit = -12 hit = 242 / 237 hit rating /// + 20 AP); Then change your yellow gems to +8 str and + 8 critical strike rating, and your blue gems to +8 str and + 12 stamina.

Thanks a lot. I got some new gear and dropped mining for JC. Right now I have 3429 AP, 250 hit, 231 ArP rating(18.76%), and 36.97% crit. Armory.

You were saying something about dropping some hit. How much can I afford to lose in place of some more ArP or strength?

No because if you read the thread carefully (sorry I dont like to be mean, but thats the truth), you would know that armor penetration doesnt cap at 100%, and not only that, but getting mobs to increasing negative armor gives expotential benefits.

40 odd pages of Warriors telling each other that HS was awful but you cant spec for anything else in the top of the tree bored me

And I didnt say ArP caping at 100%. I meant removing 100% of the targets Armour, somewhat like we used to do with Executioner Procs in TBC. (Based on if each 1% of ArP removes X amount of Armour then there must be a roof, this either being where the target has 0 Armour, or where Blizzard have placed a Hard Cap.)

And negative armour? I must have missed something here, Armour reduces damage done by attacks, if the target has no Armour then the attack will do its full damage, I fail to see how "negative" Armour can make a difference or even exist.

Shha · 05/10/09, 12:57 PM

negative armor means your attacks will do more damage.

Would it be possible to get a download of your UI? I've been trying to replicate it, but I can't get the unitframes to come out right. Also, what font are you using?

EDIT:
nvm I'm an idiot. You posted it above me.
