I see a lot of orcs posting their optimals, but where's the alliance love at? I'm pretty sure we only need 7% unbuffed assuming draenai racial eh?

Also, seems to me that there's not much value in going 2p T7/2p T8. From the looks of it it looks like most everyone is talking about going straight for 4 T7 to 4 T8.

Your rotation seems pretty bad. In all the fights you have too many Flame Shocks cast compared to LvB. Even worse, you have Lava Bursts not critting on all 3 fights, which does show you are really failing at the basics.

Otherwise, your Relic and 1st trinket are both terrible, you have some badly enchanted gear and non-enchanted gear, you are not hitcapped (unless you are using hit food), and you have gemmed strangely (why not pick up the set bonus on legs?). The rest of your gear is also in need of some serious upgrades, but thats obviously harder to change, unlike the trinket and relic which you can improve on easily.

Thank you for posting this thread to me. Unfortunately, it does not give me the definitive answers I seek.

Just did this about 10 minutes ago with 17/51/03 BP 3 minute timer 2p t8.5 and 2p t7.5, IT glyph and rotation of IT-PS-BSx2-OB-Dump / OB-FS-Dump.

Quick question-did they fix the Shadow Weaving calculation bug where you had to re-cast SW:P upon having 5 stacks?

I will probably get beaten till I bleed, but I'll still ask for help here as it seems to be the most appropriate thread. I have been Arcane for quite a while now, and geared up based on Rawr's recommendations. As I see that FB/TTW seems to be the highest-DPS spec at the moment, I'm looking to dual-spec into it and start learning to play it right. However, when I just switch spec in Rawr using my current gear, my DPS immediately drops by at least 300. I have enough comparable extra gear to push me up to hit cap, but I still end up about 150-200 DPS lower than Arcane - no matter how hard Rawr tries to optimize.

I assume there should be some stat that my "Arcane-inspired" gear set massively lacks. However, I was always going after SP and haste, and this thread claims that these are biggest deal for FB/TTW as well. So what's wrong with me? Which stat(s) should I start farming to create a gear set that will push TTW over arcane?

Here's my armory. Thanks in advance for any tips that would facilitate this transition.

Hey guys, im pretty new to the rogue class, so please excuse me if this question has all ready been answered, i tried searching for it but could not find it. Looking at the BIS list, all red slots are filled with +16 agi gems. Is there a reason that the +16 agi gems are used over the +32 AP gems. And if so what is that reason?

OK sorry to say that this post will seem noobish since i have been away from Lock raiding for months and am not sure of new class mechanics and specs based on gear. Yes i know it's affliction or destro/demo but with current gear and sp i am only doing like 2k max dps....WTF??? My locks name is Xadarina on the Kilrogg server. I know the basics as far as what to take based on your spec...i.e Destro - Sp>Crit>Hit>Haste....Afflic - Hit>SP>Haste>Crit etc. Can anyone please check out my toon and spec and tell me where i may be screwing her up!!!! I would really appreciate the feedback from anyone that wants to give it the time. Sorry for being a noob and needing some help but this site is the shiz for info so figured I would give it a shot. Thanks in advance for any help!!!

For reference i use this spell rotation as of now with 3/13/55......Immo/Chaos/Corrup/CoA/Conflag/SB fill until 30% then Drain Soul...rinse and repeat. Aagain sorry for being a lock noob but the worst question to ask is the one you don't IMHO. Thanks all.


PS - Should i be afflic with current gear??? Would be happy to link armory tag but not sure how on these forums....too long away from coding and html

Seems complicated, once you get it down it works well. I got good results duplicating this, though you might want to mention the Blood Tap at the start. You worked a lot on this rotation, I can tell. I'll be trying this in my upcoming Ulduar raid sunday, it got as good results on the dummy as the 17/51/3 rotation with the dual icy touches for the deathrunes in the second half. Yours on the other hand has no wasted GCDs, I find myself waiting to start the second half of that rotation everytime, so we'll see I guess!

edit: After more testing, I'm liking this setup even more. The extra icy touches mean there is rarely if ever a wasted GCD, and my damage output once again has frost strike at 45-46% of my damage, melee at 18%, and Icy Touch at about 12% each. Thanks for doing the work to create this rotation!

To lazy to look up your armory, but you got some things wrong. First in terms of stats Hit > all until hit capped > SP > Haste > Crit for all specs. It is the weight of each stat that differs for the different specs.

Your rotation is completely wrong. You seem to be confusing the affliction and destruction rotation. Destruction is built around fire damage as there are a crap ton of fire damage talents in the destruction tree assuming you followed the standard deep destro build. Your starting rotation should then be:

CoD -> Immo -> Conflag (Backdraft proc) -> CB -> Inc -> Inc

Then its a matter of watching CDs and prioritizing spells during backdraft. Priority being:
1. Immolate if it needs to be refreshed
2. CB
3. Inc

There are two threads in this forum you should check out if you need more help on specs and rotations
PVE Raiding Compendium V3.1
Simulationcraft on post 3.1 specs

Thanks Enigma. I did read the other forums just thought maybe i missed something. This is a sad case of listening to ppl that THINK they know what they are doing since this build and rotation was from someone who thinks they are leet. I did not think they were even close but hey that is what elitist jerks and ppl that know what they are doing is for.

hi, just wanted to add the new hotfix for Lightning Overload its now 11/22/33%

 

Dellas

Well I think it's gonna be something in this direction:
Increases your blockvalue by 300% for 15 sec.
So that all palas have to go for BlockV for being worth it -.-

I'd like to figure out some data about how many blue gems come out of one stack ore. Especially I am still up to the opinion that equipment, spec and buffs got an influance to your - lets call it - gem rate. I would be pleased if some of you got detailed data concerning this.

Like in TBC there is a felt (estimated) rate of one rare gem per ore stack (i.e. 4 times prospecting - please forgive me if this isn't the right word).
Trying to find this out I bought yesterday 91.5 stacks saronite ore and started prospecting for half an hour.

91.5 stacks saronite ore (366 times prospecting) gave me 99 rare gems. Wich means a gem rate of 1.081967213 per stack saronite ore.


Now to the point of interest. I prospected those stacks with my elemental shaman spec in my restoration gear with totems and weapon of the flamethounge alway up.

As far as I found in former prospecting sessions 1.08 is a quite good gem rate. This leads me to the thought that +crit rate has an influence to prospecting.

In 1 or 2 weeks (after selling all those gems cutted) I will start the next prospecting session with other gear and spec an without totems and buffs. I expect a lower gem rate. If you figured something out about this please provide me with the data. I will keep updating mine.


note: I am not an natural englisch speaker. So please forgive me if you find some errors and misswritings in here. (Thank you Tel for the rigth vocabular.)

Wowhead.com has all the information you need. Prospecting (not Fathoming ?) isnt influenced by gear or stats or what phase of the moon it is. It's random.

Edit: To back this up with a bit of anecdotal data. I've prospected on my DK JC character over 7000 stacks of ore. My data almost entirely matches with that of wowhead/thottbot. The only difference is that my monarch topaz drop rate is 5% higher than expected. Thats RNG for you i guess

Holdir has been hotfixed so he no longer breaks the rare cache after flash freeze if he has been killed.

Care of This blue post on one of the complaint threads.

 

Niug

We know that, that was a fix to prevent people who killed him in under 3 minutes but had him stay alive longer because he was channelling flash freeze from failing hard mode. What's being discussed is the erroneous awarding of hard mode loot / achievement to guilds who are killing him in 6-7 minutes which is now happening after this fix has been applied.
