I would direct you towards the "Search" function on the top right on the page.

I tried gemming all haste/all AP/ and a mix of the two, but no beans. Am i doing something wrong or is t9 just rather dull unless its the 245/heroic variant?

Im not sure since Im Ele but I think its something to do with the beans. O.o

I'm using [The Facebreaker] on main hand and [Orcish Deathblade] on the off hand.

Currently i'm stacking armor penetration rating and last night [Forsaken Bonecarver] dropped.

Since my off hand dagger does not give armor penetration rating, should i regardlessly go for the off hand sword for some extra armor penetration ?

Short version of the answer to that is
Frost: PVP
Frostfire: Best AOE spec
Fire: Single target DPS, good AOE
Arcane: Best single target DPS, not-as-good AOE

The specifics of your gear naturally influence the relative performances of each spec.

I still fail to see how Fire would out-AoE Arcane in any situation?

LB+FS+Blizz

*As long as the mobs last long enough for LB to explode, and they don't move out of the static AoE range.

Angelicai's guide to not making money:

1. Attempt to buy up all the Tankards of Terror without doing the math to figure out just how frigin many of them dropped.
2. Plan on waiting a few months to resell them but don't realize that there is a new patch coming out that will drop ilvl 232 gear from a 5-man instance.
3. DO NOT PROFIT.

Brekk · 10/19/09, 2:24 PM

How much we're you paying for the tankards?? I bought one at 750g, and one for 650g. I haven't flipped em yet, but prices have been fluctuating from 900's to 1200's throughout the week.

You need to give a little more time, Brewfest didn't end that long ago, and as more tankards leave the market there will still be solid demand for a 226 BoE weapon.

can someone give me a quick run down on enhance. Hit cap... what to gem with basic ilvl 219/heroic gear. glyphs totem and normal dps rotation.

Gryzemuis · 10/19/09, 6:32 PM

Great, another forum where I can't delete my own posts.

It seems Shadowmourne is a 2-hander axe. No concern of us.

Titan2000 · 10/19/09, 6:49 PM

I was hoping someone could help me find the basic values for enhance. I was also wondering about armour pen, how good is it, is there a cap stuff like that. I looked around for about an hour and couldn't find it so if someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

Grymoire · 10/19/09, 8:01 PM

Thanx a ton, that has answered some long term questions for me, I know should always get haste and more haste but wasn't too sure if I can just let my crit level drop, but I think they helped me clear the query and gonna try re-gear a few slot now.

I have quoted your problem.

The Spreadsheet I believe will be your answer. That rotation looks incorrect. At a high end gear level there will come a time (even for Agi hunters) that Ss will hit harder then Arcane Shot (due to crit bonus).

If a simple answer is what you are after I suggest using the spreadsheet.

Total side note, learn to use your shift key please.

So i'm not really sure if it's the fact that some of my gear is a bit outdated or if there's just something i'm missing with my gems or enchants. I'm hoping someone can help me out, I'm having issues pushing 4k+ in heroic ToC and such.

The World of Warcraft Armory

That's my armory, i know the fury rotation well WW-BT-BS procs, HS when rage > 50. I'm not one to use execute much, I'm not sure if I just don't have the execute part down very well but I find my DPS stays higher if I just keep up with my rotation. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.
