Recently just gone Surv, Very happy with the new play style, just wounder because of all my stacked +Hit from when i was BM is really that important been Srv, I'm currently on 275 +hit and packed with a couple of hit gems would it be worth going atleast 1/3 - 2/3 Focused aim dropping out of Imp stings and replaceing my Hit gems with more +Agility

and another question about socket Bonus, while trying to always(mostly) complete the set bonus, fillin up the blue sockets i am usualy putting 16ap + 12stam, any other pref Gems i could be stacking up on instead?

Time to go SV

Allright, i've been BM for ages now but it's time to switch to SV.

Here's what i was planning to do as macro, this is pretty straight forward.

#showtooltip Aimed Shot
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/cast !Auto Shot
/castrandom Aimed Shot, null
/cast Steady Shot
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
And then simply handweaving serpent sting and explosive shot.

My question is (as i haven't had time to try yet), is the macro above 'viable' am i not going to 'clip' Steady Shot with having Aimed shot as a castrandom there ?

ps: yes i still have an !Auto Shot line, i like to have it being shot as first shot.

Your macro do not clip out the steady, but sometime fires out SS first even if Aimed and ES arent in cd. Maybe for Haste (I've tryed without any type of haste's proc btw), but from test I've done, seems better use a macro like this:

#showtooltip Auto Shot
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence Steady Shot,
/cast Explosive Shot
/cast [target=pettarget] Kill Command
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

When L&L proc, fire ES > SS > ES > SS. Weaving Aimed and SrS "manual" give a good rotation time, only issue due haste proc during L&L proc, like that ES > SS > SS > ES > SS, but always between the proc, nothing ES missed.
I'm still searching for some tips for a good Aimed AND ES shot macro (Naxx is Mini Pony's Valley, Ulduar, I hope, not).

I used to have [Sphere of Red Dragon's Blood] equipped in my 2nd trinket slot but replaced it with the [Bandit's Insignia] that I won to get more AP. However my hit has lowered down to 211.

I was considering putting in some [Rigid Autumn's Glow] into my bracers and yellow gem slot in my T7.5 legs which would give me a total of 243 hit and 3424AP (loss of 42AP and 0.13% Crit). I've read that you shouldn't gem for hit, but I'm not sure if the current amount of hit I have is too low or not to go by those standards.

Basically, would it be a better for my overall DPS to regem and gain some more hit at the slight loss of AP or should I stick to my current setup?

Thank you in advance.

How much would be the weight of hitrating after you reach the melee hitcap?

What is the rotation for MS warrior in wrath? I played it in BC and I remember it being something like: instant, autoswing, slam, instant, autoswing, slam. How much has it changed?

I just did a test on a boss training dummy and got the following...



Everything is self buffed (horn...), I used a gargoyle to full duration and a ghoul, I decided roughly 500000 damage was a good time to stop, Necrosis did a total of 243 damage on it though, dunno why it tweaks out on dummies like that.

The World of Warcraft Armory

Heres my armory, Check my spec in there... I hope this helps your guys numbers, and feedback is appreciated =).

EDIT: Forgot my rotation:

PS > IT > HB > BS > BS> FS dump
HB > Obli > FS > HB > FS
sorry but imfo total fail gems, fail rotation, fail build

I've been playing around a bit with talents and the spreadsheet and I've noticed that this seems to be the highest dps net gain via talents I've received. Oddly I'm gaining around ~7 more dps from a 2nd point in gftt (while having around 50% crit raid buffed) than a 2nd point in imp aoth. Note that I'm excluding trapdancing.

Would like some feedback on what you guys think or have found different.

Scratch the SnD one, only adds 3 secs to duration...go with Hemo glyph, you may use it sometimes.

Can anyone provide link to 51/0/20 build plox? And what about the lack of 'Annihilation' with this build?

Cheers

Try reading the last 20 pages or so. Or even the last two.

I can find that spec on every page. How about you working a bit for yourself? Nevermind, you'll get banned anyway soon this way.

Any wild guesses on when Ulduar will be ready to go. I am trying to plan my gear choices and budget my DKP. I have been stingy with it so far but I do not want to be stuck with lots of DKP and not many gear upgrades. I would guess at least 1 month. Our guild will start fresh with 0 DKP when Ulduar hits so I can't bank it for that. I only have 2 pieces of T7.5 and I want 4 for sure but competition for our tokens.

I'll agree we shouldnt go out of our way in order to hit cap, but given the gear options I listed, I would much rather actually obtain cap and never have to deal with missing. Certainly, given proper RNG, without hitcap you can parse higher than normal, but it goes the other way as well. I'd rather stay consistent, as I would hope most do as well.
