So it's like this. Today I got Inevitable Defeat, Valorous chest and Sigil, so I was thinking, is it worth respeccing with a 2hand DPS build? Before I used 32/39 with Maexxna's Femur and Grasscutter. So what do you think I should do, and if I should respecc could you link a good specc and rotation? Maybe 17/54? Thanks

Lionheart Executioner

Unfortunately, pretty much all of the good drops come out of 25 mans or 10 mans. If you can get 10 people to go to Kara you could get Gorehowl, which is decent.

Gorehowl

Hammer of the Naaru is what I used for a long time, which drops of HKM in Gruuls.

Guys, didn't they remove the bug with HaT in the last patch?
I mean... how come it's still viable?

It's such a simple question I thought it more appropriate for this thread.

I guess I will run a dummy test tomorrow to try it out the difference.

Hello,

I was wondering about my choice of gems. I respecced to assasination and replaced most gems with 32 AP /54 AP.
Doing so I got a real boost in AP but I lost quite a bit of Expertise. Now I have 11 Expertise, 16 with Bufffood.
Since 16 is still awful low, I loose 3% dmg just by parries and dodges.

The question is, should I:
a) switch back to combat with Greed Mh / LPC Offhand for the 5 Expertise.
b) replace some AP gems with Expertise
c) dont change anything and wait for better gear


I know, there are only 2 Prismatic gems, but I am savin one for the Maly 25 neck which I hope to get tonight.

Here is my armory profile:

remember d2 ,also a game by blizzard, there was a stat called "magicfind" increase the chance to find loot with higher Ilvl

so it is possible to need magicfind for better loot, as a kind adjustments

Hey ZODD1, i'm curious to know what your dps on 25 man patchwerk is with the gear u have. My gear is similar but i'm not used to the fury rotation yet (Just been playing fury for a week or so). Just wanted to know where i'd have to aim for this week 25 man !

Brain Freeze should trigger Frostfire Bolt or Fireball. Your choice.

It should also be 100% crit and no threat and no mana.

Frost also deserves a molten fury type talent as well.

I can't find a conclusive answer.

Is Sinister Revenge meant to be MH or OH?

Right now I have Sinister Revenge and Librarian's Paper Cutter

We try to keep it a secret so we will only be the second worst class instead of the worst.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I honestly have no idea where to look for it, so here goes:

Is the 4pc t7 bonus actually worth getting? I have 5/5 t7.5, and am looking at what piece to replace, but I'm wondering if I should just replace the chest/gloves/pants and drop the 4pc. I mean, it takes what, 3 energy off each mut... is it really worth the decrease in stats that I take by not grabbing the best in slot gear instead?

Currently I'm dual wielding 2 LPC's as a Mutilate rogue. I just received a Twilight Mist from Grob. I can't seem to find a spreadsheet where it ranks Twilight Mist above Librarian's Paper Cutter. Should I even bother MHing the Twilight Mist?

I'm not if i'm right but i think that the FS dot does not get the spellpower bonus like ES. Wich cannot be ignored after we've got that much spellpower since lich king

I can't help noticing that no one really speaks about rotation macro's. How do the high dpsers (5,5k and more dps) that posted in this tread keep up their rotation?

I have been using this macro here:

#showtooltip Steady Shot
/script UIErrorsFrame:UnregisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/castrandom Explosive Shot, Explosive Shot, Explosive Shot, Steady Shot
/cast Kill Shot
/cast Kill command
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear(); UIErrorsFrame:Show()

And manually weaving in Serpent Sting and Aimed Shot

But today I found out that Explosive Shot is used only about 2/3rd of the time it should be. Which costs me about 20% of dps. Ending me up in the 4300 dps area.

I also tried this macro, which made more sence to me, but here not a single Steady Shot was used:

#showtooltip Steady Shot
/script UIErrorsFrame:UnregisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/cast Explosive Shot
/cast Steady Shot
/cast Kill Shot
/cast Kill command
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear(); UIErrorsFrame:Show()

Please give me some opinions on how you think survival hunters should keep up their rotation so we get out a maximum of damage...?

Aha, so that tread tells me that manual shot weaving gives me a big advantage compaired to a macro. I never saw that tread before thanks for pointing it out.

Wow, I'm really embarrased to admit this, but I had neglected to train on the higher ranks or ES, Aimed and Stings. I knew something was not quite right, but figured I was just getting used to the new spec and shot rotations. Man, did my dps shoot up afte training. Guild had a good laugh. hahaha! Oops. Thanks for your confession alarge.
