For a couple of years now I have read this forum. Always a great tool/ guide. However, all this talk about glyphs has just got me plain confused. Now, there is talk of G of FT wep. being viable. I suppose it's personal preference at this point. I'm gonna start rolling with ToW, LB and Flame shock for now. If someone has some better insight as to what I should be using for my gear at the moment, then be all means.....help.

Short result = both enchants had roughly the same uptime and therefore black magic does look much better but before i look closer to this enchant i want to see the tests that have been already made.

Dug around and heres what they found on it Black Magic Findings . Also if you scroll down like two posts from that, Mavana's findings show its not worth it.

I have a Bryntroll normal version and i saved up 4700 arena points. Is the 277 pvp weapon an upgrade for me or should i stick to my Bryntroll?

FYI, you can add the various levels of the ICC damage buff if you wish. Using the All Items list with Shadowmourne and 30% damage, Rawr says 1780 dps.

I noticed you have the Vengeful Noose in your normal mode plate only list. Any plans to fix this?

I have not seen this addressed in a few months. With the new ICC gear, what are the prefered professions?
I am arcane, t10, 4-pcs set bonus etc. I have 450 alch and tailor. I leveled a shaman to do herbing for me. So that takes the need for flasks etc out of the picture. Is there a prefered option now to put with tailor?

a) Using Arcane spec ... no instants in a rotation (what's one of those) helps considerably

c) keybinding Arcane Missiles via nochannel macro to SHIFT-MOUSE-WHEEL-DOWN

Not necessarily an ideal solution but it did help my own dps considerably

interesting idea... lets give it a go... thanks

Please fact check before posting in these forums. The threat per execute time of searing pain (in a sim as demo) is around 10k, Soul fire is in the 13.5k range. These assume no threat reduction talents.

I scrolled back a bit but I couldn't find it, is it clear already if Black magic > 63 SP as main hand enchant for the affliction warlock?

I recently started leveling my warrior again and respecced into prot. I'm a little confused as to how cleave and heroic strike interact. I'm planning to macro all of the attacks in my "rotation" to spam heroic strike. However, in aoe pulls I'm curious, if I hit cleave then hit my thunderclap/heroic strike macro, will heroic strike overwrite the cleave command or do they "take turns" where cleave would take place of the next melee attack and heroic strike would be the one after that?

Since the mangle debuff is lasting 1min as of 3.3, would dropping Imp. Mangle for points in Feral Aggression be worth it?

I guess I qualify as a noob, venturing into Elitist territory. I got a little ways into Feral Tanking and realized I didn't know the terms.
These terms: 4T10, 2T9, FB, idol (what idol?) SR, Wol and iLevel. Somebody want to point me in a direction, I'm good at reading things. Many more, I'm taking notes as I go.

I got a question about rj

Is the rj coefficient based off the initial sp at the time of cast or the current sp at the time of tick.

Say you have an rj up at 2500 sp 8 secs in.. you pop a trink to get 500sp bonus. Does the next tick get the 500sp bonus?
