Let me know if I've done something wrong since I'm just not seeing the error of my gemming. Thanks
Any advice on what I could swap around would be greatly appreciated.

here's my armory info... it's still showing some +8STR and +12Stam gems in like my MH and rings, hopefully it updates by the time people check my armory since I've made a coupel of changes.

The World of Warcraft Armory

There's no need to link your armory we have one right under your name. Secondly, use the spreadsheet.

Do you guys think thist trinket will still be BiS for Paladins come 3.2?

powersofpain · 07/08/09, 7:29 PM

Thats not my correct toon anymore, hence why I linked the correct one, this is an old logon and I didn't feel like going and updating it, etc.

Thanks for being zero help, as I stated, I've done what I thought was correct and was simply looking for feedback... I use Landsoul's spreadsheet, etc. Just wanted an opinion or two...

Your gemming seems fine but you may also want to refer to the spreadsheet. Are you seeing bad numbers from your dps? If so it may not be a gem problem.

If you had done your research, you would have seen that Blizz doesn't like the idea of Seal of Blood anymore, mostly because of its high burst damage coupled with the backlash to health.

They are also buffing Seal of Vengeance/Corruption in an effort to lower our Burst DPS, but raise our general fight DPS. The same idea is true for Crusader Strike where they lower its damage but have us using it more. It's not a nerf so much as trying to balance us better.

It wasn't sarcasm. I seriously envy you -- that trinket is already monstrous, the fact that the clicky effect is double as good as expected makes it even better.

Hi all

Have read this thread for a while and most recently took interest in people's comments on Mernakleez and others posts.

My specs are at : The World of Warcraft Armory

I suffer from the same fate of not seeming to be able to match other fury dps in guild, even though I think I have similar gear and spec.

Any suggestions on where I am missing with my gemming or specs in general. Yes I am tryin gto get some better trinkets, but am main spec tank but called on to do dps and can't seem to crack 4k in Uld 25 runs.

I follow the same ww/bt/gcd approach as many have posted so just want to check if maybe any thoughts on whether I can swap spme str gems for ArP gems, noting that I am a JC so can add any of the dragon eye gems!

Please note for some reason armory has put in helm as my tanking helm even though I have Iron War Hem equipped!

Thanks
Taras

Yeah cause the fight is really bothersome with the dest build

DalWill · 07/08/09, 11:22 PM

For me 3/53/15 seems to be giving best results:

Rotation:
IT, PS, OB, BS, BS , FS, FS
OB, OB, FS, OB, FS...FS/Rime

I don't know if this has been discussed, but on fights where we can't use Shred, what would be the best Idol to use, the Mangle or Rip Idol?

But actually the Rip and Shred idol both grant very similar DPS - the difference is really low.

Mangle if you have to mangle. Rip or shred otherwise...
Since you have to mangle, when you can't shred - Mangle Idol will win.

Just a point I have to re-confirm with moonkins.

ATM unbuffed in moonkin form, I am looking at something like 21% crit, and up to 440 haste.

I have gotten conflicting views from other druids in my realm, some telling me that after 400 haste, crit becomes more valuable, others telling me that haste is still more important than crit even after I hit my soft haste cap.

What are your opinions?

Bloodgrip · 07/09/09, 12:39 AM

I run a Resto Druid, Arms Warrior, and Enhance. We do decent against PMRs (really just depends on who makes the first mistake) we just seem to have alot of problems with Ret/Rogue and anything with a Dest Lock or a Hunter. Highest we got was to 1970, and we are currently trying to get back to 1900...

Bloodgrip · 07/09/09, 12:41 AM

Is it worth it to go resto to get to 2050 so I can get the shoulders for enhance?
