Badgertgb, I really like the way your unit frames look. Were you able to achieve that with just Pitbull or with the help of another addon? Thanks!

Edit: Which Buttonfacade are you using?

Raiding Toc25HM as Disc, I frequently end OOM before Jaraxus death or during Jormungtars.
I'm not proud of my gemming, favouring SP over everything else.
Red 23sp Yellow 12 sp 10 int Blue : 12 sp 15 stam.

Should I swap 15 stam with Spirit or mp5?
Should I put Int in every yellow slot?
Should I just wait for Solace of the Fallen?

I am 0/53/18.

Rotation:
IT PS OB BS BS Dump
OB OB OB Dump

I was wondering if there's an AoE rotation.

I really hope this question hasn't been asked already but, here is the tooltip for the Arcane talent [Arcane Focus]

Increases your chance to hit and reduces the mana cost of your Arcane spells by 1%/2%/3%.

The question is, does the hit rating effect apply to all spell schools and attacks, or strictly to Arcane spells?

Thanks in advance.

So hoping someone with the trinket can check this for me, or maybe someone with more experience since I wasn't a lock during TBC.

But a fellow guildie brought this up about the SW:P glyph and Ashtongue priest trinket and there's a similar situation for Locks now.

The Ashtongue trinket has no ICD, with the new glyph possibly letting corruption become hasted, does this suddenly make it a viable trinket again?

[Ashtongue Talisman of Shadows] is the item in mind, and I realize this won't be best in slot suddenly, but it could be an interesting option for those picking up an old lock.

Checked all over the internet for an answer to this, but sadly I don't know that I'm quite smart enough to figure this out solo.

I wish the worms poison (or melee's legion flames [should this really be dumped directly behind the boss anyway?]) was not so painful

Really seems to eat down a pet fast.

My pet has died once on faction champions, seemed the whole lot of them targeted him at the same time D:

hmmm, guess I'm gonna have to start messing with simcraft then, though i was trying to avoid it. thanks for the info.

It's an Arcane talent, in the Arcane tree, whose tooltip says "Arcane spells". So no, it does not apply to anything but Arcane spells.

AP is the BM hunter's choice of gemming.

To add to the (correct) explanation, and alternatively, the frost hit talent affects all spell schools.

Dear Paladins,

I have a rather 'simple' question for ye'all today. Unbuffed I'm having 3633 AP, as you can also see on my armory, in my retribution off-spec. I do not find my gear that worthless but as I look up other armory pages I see lots of 5000 AP~ unbuffed Paladins! For the first time I'm going to ToC as a DPS (I normally heal everything) and I was wondering if my 3633 unbuffed AP was able to handle it. Do ye'all think I'd be able to pull off at least 3,500 DPS raid buffed ;-)? I've never DPS'd before, did some readings beforehand, and I don't want to completely fail there.. Since I was only able to pull off 3,300 DPS on a dummy..

WoW-Heroes.com says I can do it, do you think I can?

Thanks in advance.

Yours sincerely,

Cicil.

PS: I'll be buying the [Conqueror's Aegis Battleplate] today and the [Furious Gladiator's Scaled Helm] on Wednesday. Both will be gemmed with +20 STR gems and the +21 AGI / 3% Crit Meta gem.

Posted in the wrong Thread.

How much arpen will i need for ruptureless combat?

I don't know about the hybrid nature of it (where it functions differently before refresh and after), but in terms of the individual mechanics:

The initial part sounds like it works the same as Shadow Word: Pain and Vampiric Touch.

The refreshed part sounds like it works the same Devouring Plague.

If it's true that it works the same as Devouring Plague then the actual duration won't be 18 seconds (although UI calls would return 18).

Devouring Plague currently works like this (on PTR):

num_ticks = round( 8 * ( 1 + haste% ) )

duration = num_ticks * 3.0 / ( 1 + haste% )

So for example with 0% haste, num_ticks = 8, duration = 24, just like on Live.

With 6.125% haste:

num_ticks = round( 8 * 1.06125 ) = round( 8.49 ) == 8.
duration = 8 * 3.0 / 1.06125 = 22.61 seconds.

With 6.25% haste:

num_ticks = round( 8 * 1.0625 ) = round( 8.50 ) == 9.
duration = 9 * 3.0 / 1.0625 = 25.41 seconds.

As mentioned, the UI function calls are buggy and they return 24.0 as the duration but checking the combat logs it's easy enough to see that the actual duration matches this formula.

It would seem likely that a refreshed Corruption functions the same way, but testing would be needed to confirm.

Well im kinda new for cat dps, most of the time im restoration, then i would like to know

Right now i dont have a hit cap, and i m using [Pyrite Infuser], becuase of this i was planning to replace it for a badge(emblem) one but i dont know wich one to take, the haste or the ap one

[Shard of the Crystal Heart] or [Mark of Supremacy]

i have never tested the up time of pyrite infuse
taking it as a always proc out of CD it would be a 10s under a 45s = 0.22
and the other trinkets would be at 20 under 120(2min) = 0.167

thx

I've been raiding as moonkin for sometime and used 2pcs of T8 set (hands+legs). Should I consider upgrading them to 2pcs of T9 (lvl232)? Is the 2pcs of T9 must have? I've got the lvl245 idol. This is my big question now. I've enough emblems to do this.

I don't think I will be getting any Trophys soon, since moonkin is not my main spec and I've had horrible luck with Trophys for sometime. It would take a lot of time for me to get 2 Trophys.

I've got normal LVL245 head (ony25) and chest (toc25), also LV232 shoulders (toc10). Should I consider switching these to T9 lvl232 so I'd get 2 x T8 + 2 X t9? My other armor gear is lvl219-245. I don't have that good trinkets, but neck/rings are quite ok.

I've got 5pcs of T8 (T8 - T8.5) so I can switch them rather easy, but I'd loose a lot of haste/spellpower/hit rating by using them.

Hi, I hope this is where to post this, if not I am sorry. I have posted the link to my armory and my question is if anyone can tell me why I am still only doing about 3.8 DPS. With this gear is that about right or am I doing something very wrong, thanks.

(No I'm not great at coding and such >.>)

Head on over to that, but at a glance...You are about 160 points over hit cap, half of your gear is healer gear (see mp5) which explains why your haste is so low. You use the wrong totem too, get electrifying wind ASAP. You don't have glyph of lightning bolt, replace it for lava ASAP. Other than that just try to replace all of your mp5 gear and poor trinkets. Also you didn't list a rotation, but here is the one you should be able to follow:

Flame Shock-->Lava Burst-->Chain Lightning

From there, use Lightbolt in between Chain Lightnings and Lava Bursts, and keep Flame Shock up without losing more than the final tick if you can help it. Edit: Use Thunderstorm every CD, or as you find necessary. And glyph it, or your tanks will hate you

The times of heaving a healer for the tank(s) and another one for the rest are a thing of a nearly forgotten past, back then when Stratholme, Scholomance and the like were being visited by 10 player 'raids'. Today, you are indeed expected to soloheal your whole group in heroic, something that is usually no big deal anymore.

Taking a quick look at your armory profile, you really should invest some time in reading up how to choose your talents, equip and most likely also base principles of healing as a druid. Anything more as an advise right now would be quite useless, because the described problems could just be related to your missing background as experienced resto player. If your problems persist after fixing the most serious problems, you can always ask for more help i suppose.

Trinket needs to be replaced fast, both Sundial of Exile and Abssal Rune are easily get hold of, get that pair for now.

Nice neck but wrong gem, spirit does nothing for us, either just put a 23sp gem on there, if you need a blue for meta, both the mp5 or stam would have do you better.

Head: Meta gem, the Crit+crit damage meta gem has been said many times is the best meta for ele, so try replace with that. And you are already WAY over hit cap, so no point in gemming for hit gem on your head, replace it with sp+haste gem instead.

We scale better with haste than crit, so replace your sp+crit gem with sp+haste gem instead.

Your haste is way too low for the gear level you are on, but with those changes it should bring your haste and dps up by a good portion.

Bored with typhoon? What the hell does that even mean?
