Do i need expertise when dpsing from behind?If yes how many?

probably a silly question but I've spent some time already to find the answer and ended up with only speculations. Well I assume enhancement shamans should be using WF\FW on their weapons for the largest dps output. But now I'm wondering if WF\WF wouldn't be better. So?

My own UI is under constant revision, but it’s at a place right now that I really like. A few months ago I tried my hand at writing a character management guide for my guildies, entitled At The Top Of Your Game and found at:

The last section of the guide deals with a healer’s UI and talks about mine, and I thought I’d link it here in case it appeals to anyone.

Hey thanks so much for this I used it and it increased my DPS the day I used it

One question though: Is the T8.5 4p better or worse then T9.5 4p. Basically I want to know if I should actually get T 9.5 or stick to 8.5 and I'd like to know the actual DPS increase in the switch if possible. (I'm not smart enough to do the math >.<)

Thank you!

i have been starting my rotation at hm/serpent/ steady shot then arcane/chimera/ steady/aimed, and the current glyphs i am using is Serpent Sting, Steady Shot and a questionable one, Glyph of the Hawk, since AutoShot as been my main source of damage, I am trying this new glyph to get in more shots faster steady shot cast time and also more auto shots, is this a bad glyph has anyone tested it so see if im wrong? And secondly everyone i talk to about arcane shot is confused, idk why it seems to be pretty good, besides the mana consumtion

I wanted to know what yall think would be better. This is a profile based on what is obtainable by myself. All i do is switch the belts around.
Tier 9 Gearing

Tier 9 Gearing 2
In one im well over expertise cap. But to swap to the other belt I lose 30 sum AP, 1.5% crit, but i gain 5% armor pen. Blood spec. Want some opinions. Thank you.

Hi, I am currently a Mac user and I wish I could use Rawr with it.

May I hope a Mac release ?

Cathiecj · 10/04/09, 2:19 PM

I will probably get an infraction for this but....

I know that Ridley is retired and doesn't post anymore, but I wonder if the person that is about to give me an infraction could update the first post with the newer information. The stuff relevant for ToC.

This thread is about the Retribution model in RAWR. For general topics about RAWR, go here EJ Rawr Thread or on Codeplex.

has anyone looked at the 3.3 patch? Looks like our rotation is going to get a bit more complicated.

evman182 · 10/04/09, 3:45 PM

Thanks. That pretty much answered my question perfectly.

I quit before 3.2 and I recently started playing again. I came here as usual to make sure I'm aware of the changes and get back to being the best holy paladin I can be.

Since crit is less valued now, should we be opting for the SP/Mp5 arcanum instead of the SP/crit one?

It also seems like Icewalker is useless now.

I guess I need some stat allocations pertaining to the changes instead. Not only are my gear choices different but enchants are changing too.

I used to use T7 for my HL build and set and T8 for my FoL build and set. Looks like I should replace my SP gems on my T8 with int and make that my HL set and T9 my FoL set?

To summarize what I've read through the last few pages since the patch, HL builds and sets should be Int>Haste>MP5 and FoL builds should be SP>Haste>MP5?

And where did Endo go?

jsrealpm · 10/04/09, 3:51 PM

Have they fixed arcane shattering on PTR or am i just having strange issues on ptr?

edit: i haven't played my mage in a good while, just trying to keep up with information, which apparently i have failed at.
