There is blue post today saying that Bryntroll acting to much overpowered in hand or ret and unholy DK and it`s not intended...so nerf is very close.
Thay wanna axe to do around 3-4 % overall dmg (like furry war) not 8 % like ret or dk...but again whats happand when furry warr get both Axes it`s again 8 % dmg and it`s not fer to ppl who cant dw.

My question is it worth to stick to Bryntroll if thay nerf dmg on 3 % overall over taking Shadow Edge?
From link you can see that furry warrior got like 45 k dmg from it (imo not worth...) and i got almost 170 k and over 8 % whats very nice.

And yes before someone flames me I did use the search feature and it turned up with nothing answering this.

So I don't understand with the importance of Int why Solace of the Defeated is so much better than trinkets like Pandora's plea. Can anyone help me with this.

It seems like the only reason for hybrid tanking him would be if you're having a hard time beating the enrage timer.

If you have already beaten him and had no problems with the timer, why go through the effort to beat it by slightly more?

If you already have two bear specs, then you're not losing much. But if you have to respec your main spec for a hybrid for one fight, you're going to end up respeccing multiple times per clear.

The other consideration is that with 80-90% increased damage, you're not going to be able to flip to cat and go all out without passing the other tank's threat in very short time. Even given a Hand of Salvation, as a cat you'd probably pass the other tank quickly.

So I've still yet to see an answer to the only real questions that seem to be needed. With the nerf to poisons does our spec change back to 51/13/7 for mut and 15/51/5 for combat or stay where they currently are? Also If combat does indeed go back to 15/51/5 am I correct in assuming we go back to WP mh DP off? I know it's early and people are probably still crunching numbers so these may not be answered yet.

With the soon to be nerf to our class:

I was wondering if there would be any impact to the current mutilate spec?

Dear Shadowpriests, I raided as Disc Priest for some time, but realised that SP is much more fun; or at least could be.
Since I tried Shadow Specc i loved it, but while the quality of my gear was increasing, my DPS was stagnating, or even decreasing in some situations.

Armory Link

WWS follows as soon as possible. I am reinstalling my WOW right now, so I can´t post the stats yet.

I tried various rotations:
(thanks again Mearis for your nice SP guide)

and the 3.3 rotation macro posted by Squinky on shadowpriest.com • Index page

to name but a few. I just can´t seem to top 4k DPS on the Dummy (If I reach them at all) I thought about reasons for my lacking DPS; I did not have to bad dot uptimes and I didn´t fail at cds either. (not drastically)
But even when using that nice castsequence macro my DPS decreased to 3.2k. I am seriously confused and frustrated.
I spent like 3 whole days searching for the severe fault in my rota.

I know my gear is not at all perfectly socketed and enchanted and the stats aren´t mixed well (like FAR above hitcap ) I know these issues, but I don´t have any gear to compensate it at the moment.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I (combat rogue) was raiding Onyxia 25 today with my guild and managed to get my hands on a Tempered Vis'Kag the Bloodletter... so now I wonder if in your opinion this weapon is worth it. I'm upgrading from Nighttime with Liar's Tongue. I didnt manage to find any definite info on proc chances... maybe someone could help me out here?

Does anyone have to say anything about what spec does more damage?

As for me I have tested both 51-18-2 and 51-13-7 on a dummy and in raid. And 51-13-7 comes out ahead by app. 500 dps raid buffed and 200 dps on dummy. I can post WOL logs if there is a need for them.

Also with a buff from Heartpierce dagger and Overkill buff there is a problem of excessive energy, so I was wondering what is better: envenom clipping or another mutilate when the target has 4cps?

I apologize in advance for being a noob.

How do the ICC10 normal weapons compare VS BB from ICC25?

I was hoping to get some feedback on which dagger would have the most DPS for a mutilate spec Rogue ( 51/18/2)

I have the Heroic Dirk the Night Watch as an OH.

Thanks

Thank you for all the feedback
