Great, thanks for the insight. Gives me an idea for pulling the first boss in Gundrak up the stairs so the tank doesn't have to kite it. If I put the pet on passive and then EotB it down the stairs to aggro the boss, then release EotB, the pet should return with the boss in tow and the tank can then grab aggro.

professions?

I am getting into deeper, harder raids, and am wanting to boost my DPS to the best I can, and am wondering about switching professions.

I currently do Eng/Min. Mining, while a good cash cow, gives me absolutely 0 DPS bonus, and while Eng was good when i first got 80, I have replaced everything from it except my truesight ice blinders (which I hope to replace soon) and gnomish lightning generator.

What professions would give the best boost to DPS?

Also, is the gnomish lightning generator, or hand-mounted pyro rockets worth using, or should I get non-engy enchant/trinket to relplace them. (If I keep Engy that is).

Hate to interrupt, but...

Sorry to butt in...

I'm quitting WoW and I have about 250,000g plus another 40,000 estimated gold in mats. Oddly, I find myself liquidating before my accounts expire (I myself cannot understand my need to do this).

So... what would you do with close to 300,000g if you were quitting? I'm thinking to have a trivia contest in Org and each correct answer gets 100g.

Unlike Frequent Flier Miles, I unfortunately cannot donate gold to a charity.

New to frost tanking

Hey i was just wondering if someone could direct me to an awesome glyph setup for frost tanking and maybe a sweet rotation guide. I'm new to tanking and the glyph info in the beginning of this thread seems to be rather old. ^_^

Also since im reading now that blood is the way to go for tanking. What are some good glyphs and rotations for that?

Unholy TPS

I'm not as progressed as most of you guys. I've tanked mostly everything up to Kologarn 10 and that's all my experience with DK tanking. I'm usually deep Blood or deep Frost. But I really love unholy for some reason and I would like to roll with unholy.

The problem is, unholy tps is really bad on single target fights. Every time I rolled unholy I was barely above (if above at all) the locks in tps.

For those of you that have more experience tanking as unholy than me, what do you think about the following build?
Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft

My rotation is usually the "default" one.(IT, PS, BS, BS, SS -> DUMP / SS,SS,SS)
Using Glyph of Bone Armor, SS and DD.

If you have any other "max tps" build or rotation in mind or experience on the subject, please share.

Oh.. :P

Hmm.. I guess. I use my 80 cats, the others are there for filling up space. That's true, I respecced him according to a different talent tree and it went up about 100 dps. :/

One question -- how are you able to see your HP on-the-fly if CoolLine/Forte is on top of it? Is the deficit white like the boss deficit?

My DPS is just "Okay.."

So I am a survival hunter and I have been looking through the posts on all these hunter threads about DPS since mine seems a bit on the low side. It's about 2.3k on the heroic training dummy sometimes, and 2.7k other times. I figured out that it's a worthy investment on the Saronite Arrows made by Engineers (67dps approx. up from 47.sdps) but it's only about a hundred or so up in DPS. I have decent gear, but i do need Envoy of Mortality from Kel' Thuzad in 25 Naxx. Any ideas on how I could get it a bit higher? Or is it the best it can be?

Never worn leather before but im in a pickle and need a bit of advise.

[Darkheart Chestguard]


Would you advise me to wear this till something better drops for me? The ARP seems very attractive considering I’m an arms warrior.

Do check out my armory and let me know your thoughts on this.

What do you guys think about wearing t6? it is extremely well itemized and consists of 8 pieces. The 2 set bonus gives a static 5% haste buff to SnD. The 2 pieces to pick would most likely be among the following:


[Slayer's Boots]
[Slayer's Bracers]
[Slayer's Belt]

I don't know how to spreadsheet this stuff, but a rogue in my guild uses 2pc and his DPS is pretty damn nice with it. Curious to see if someone could math it out to see whats up.
