So I have a question. I've been useing landsouls spreadsheet with a trial verson of excell but now that it is expired I can not change the value of arp to see if it is better to gem for arp or not. At the moment I'am sitting at 75% arp passive 6 str gems to replace with arp gems. Just wondering since I have so much arp and can still be hit caped and expertise caped if it would be worth it to full on gem for arp or gem for str. I kno that at this moment its best for me to gem for str but iam talking 3.2.2. Thanks in advance for any tips.

World of Logs - Real Time Raid Analysis

For example: 2nd boss in Coleseum-25 normal.
Other DK: 4 place - 8189 dps
I'm: 7 place. - 7478 dps.
Im not understand why my DPS low? My and other DK use identical dps rotation. Help plz.
This situation on other fight's too.

Im think about: may be he use DRW+Hysterya on Grim Toll proc? Im don't have this trinket and can't test it.

PS: Sorry my bad english.

Is it worth getting Mjolnir, when my 2 trinkets are Death's Choice and Greatness? I'm at ~350 ArP, fully gemmed for agility.

It's not even that I was being lazy and not switching, I'm fairly sure I was attacking them within a second of their spawning, yet we still ended up with breakdowns like the following: World of Logs - Real Time Raid Analysis

I even switched to survival since MM is particularly bad at DPSing them, and while my damage on the volcanoes and various adds and the boss is much much better, I was terrible on portals on every attempt and on the kill. Are other hunters in the same boat because of their particularly short lifespan? I can't think of how hunters would be any more disadvantages on them than several other classes, other than perhaps the lack of pet DPS if you don't set your pet on them.

I suffered the same in 10-man.
Personally I believe it might have to do with our big nukes are cooldown based. A Mage for instance can 'just' cast another of his main nukes. We on the other hand might not have ES up and if we do, it might not get up again before the portal is dead. And our usually big contributor to things like this, Kill Shot often won't hit the target in time (flighttime here), or it pops up in the middle of a Steady Shot. At least that was how I felt that part of the fight was for me.

Hello everyone, thanks for all the good work
I've been in read only mode on EJ for about 6 month now and it quite helped me improve my skills, but know I have a question for which I can't find any answer... How the heck can we get [Eye of the Broodmother] ?!

It seems like a newbish question, I know. But I've downed Razorscale at least 15 times since 3.1 and never seen it drop so I'm wondering. Is there a condition for it to drop (such as kill razor in xx minutes, or not allow him to fly off more than once, something like that)? Or am I just so unlucky it just never happened?

I'm so despaired each time I even began to think it's not on the loot tables XD

PS : I've asked my guildmates, and it seems no one ever saw it...

I just hope that, a month down the road, some blue doesn't posts "Yeah some really lame players decided to abuse a technical difficulty we were having to use both the normal and heroic mode version of items at the same time despite this obviously being unintended. Sure sucks to be them now though, because we're going to totally screw them over by making it impossible to equip both at the same time anymore, and they deserve what they're getting for violating the spirit of our brilliant, logical and intuitive new normal/heroic mode item system." Because they're good at making their changes sound very reasonable even when they're not.

As it is now they are easily best in slot, and I am going to pick up both as soon as they drop, but the amount of people who'd get pissed off inside the guild if they were changed so that I can't equip both at the same time wouldn't be limited to just myself, if you know what I mean.

Why would you do that? The safest solution (and this applies to Death's Verdict as well) is to make sure everyone capable of using it has at least one before starting to hand out duplicates to the same person. Sorry, but that just reeks of selfishness and ignorance to take two before anyone else.

It only drops on the 10 man version of Razorscale

Not just that, but in the event it gets reverted to unique by name, then you just screwed your guild out of 1 of the trinkets (which I think you realize, but obviously don't care).

ekanseht · 09/18/09, 11:39 AM

Oops my bad I wasn't precise enough, Razor downed at least 15 times in 10-man. For an item with 20% droprate (cf Wowhead)... I just don't understand

Melkandor · 09/18/09, 12:38 PM

I have a the following trinkets available to use for my Warrior: [Mjolnir Runestone], [Grim Toll], [Darkmoon Card: Greatness], and [Banner of Victory]. I've used all these trinkets at different times during the past few weeks to try and guage which combination seems to work best.

Currently, I am at approximately 47% ArP with gear and jewels alone, and wanted to know if anyone had any suggestion for which combination of trinkets would be optimal given my current inventory? At the moment, I do need to keep Grim Toll equipped to stay at hit cap, this should change next week when I am able to grab [Wrynn's Helmet of Triumph] and keep stay at optimal hit rating. Thanks in advance for the advice.

Fireball Mage Vs Moonkin + other classes for [Reign of the Unliving]

Would a good, key arguement point be that since fireball mages have Enpowered Fire talent (increases dmg of fireball by an amount equal to 15% of your spellpower) while moonkin's Lunar Guidance talent (increases spellpower by 12% your the total intellect) means that fireball mages will benefit alot more from the trinket? Although I've been told by our moonkin that he crits lot more and his casts are shorter, which means building motes faster?

How would you argue for this trinket in favour of mages over other classes?
