@ the above post

personally i use OP>Execute>MS>Slam! and only use sudden death procs when i have the full 30 rage for it which usually crits for about 6.8k and Slam! only when everything is on CD and im above 40 rage. ur gear seems fine it might just be your rotation and how tight it is. i hit about 5k on XT 10 man using this and about 7.1k on thaddius and your gear is slightly better than mine The World of Warcraft Armory i use bartender and ive made a small bar right under my icehud that shows me when my op, ms, execute, bs, and all my other abilities are on cd and are available and it has helped me keep my rotations tight.

Yea, just a matter of finding a good legit rotation-- ill try yours out and see what the results come to.
Thanks

Just wondering, did you ever end up finishing this UI?

Awesome, very useful! Numbers from what i see are quite accurate, from spreadsheet and recount etc.

I'm missing a dps enchants list.

 

Jetador

I am an enhance Shaman ( you can view my gear The World of Warcraft Armory )

I just got [Bloodcrush Cudgel] which is a 1.5 Speed mace from Ulduar Trash.

I am currently using Angry Dread in Off-Hand.. ( [Angry Dread] ) which is 2.50 Speed mace.

I am sure these questions get asked all the time but is the stat / dps boost on the Ulduar wep worth losing the speed rating?

Thx guys. Sorry for such a newb question

Short Answer; No.

I suggest looking at the Raiding Hunter Information and FAQ thread

You're not exp capped so I would suggest for the time being taking a point WM so you'd be sitting at 6.75% (just a tad over cap). Also it seems that you're not utilizing your socket bonuses, you have a blue gem to get +12 stam bonus and then also in your belt. If you switch the gems for your pants (for 6str) and to your necky (+8ap) and you'd lose 12stam which is negligible from a dps min/maxing pov.
From what I remember 21agi +3%inc crit dmg > than 21crit +3%inc crit dmg if you're NOT a JC since you only have to socket one blue gem instead of 2.
Also you neglect to mention if you're running 10mans or 25mans and what buffs you have/are missing. If you have any logs it would help. My toons are also on tich., send me a tell if you see me on I'll be happy to help anyway i can.

small min/max with gems wont make much of a difference in your dps as much as your rotation and prioritizing. and yes you can get the agil meta if you feel like losing about .13% crit and gemming for another 16 armor pen (about 1.30%) but that really wont make the difference. clearly from his gear he is running at least naxx 25 and ulduar 10 so he should receive most of the common buffs.

I'm currently playing 51/0/20 Blood.
I just bought a Nobles Deck today and will be grabbing my card tomorrow.
I'm currently using Mirror Of Truth and Fury of the Five Flights.
Which would you suggest that i switch Greatness for?
Thanks!

This is a splendid piece of work.

Long Answer: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Too many of our attacks are based off weapon damage, slower weapons hit harder and all of our attacks are instant. Slower the better.

Optimal gearing: the BiS thread has what you are looking for.

Hi fellow Mages,

At the moment I am 57/3/11 Arcane that's just started to venture into Ulduar 10 and 25. But after hearing how FFB and TtW/FB are better specs for Ulduar, I decided to plan ahead and pick up gear for TtW/FB. Last night I won [Raiments of the Corrupted] and [Combustion Bracers] in Ulduar 10. Now I'm wondering if they're better pieces for TtW/FB than [Valorous Frostfire Robe] and [Punctilious Bindings]. Also, what is the hit cap for TtW/FB?

Thanks in advance!

 

peterdevos

Great Advice. This is exactly what I did and now have both my Sash and my Slippers.

 

ardulus

My suggestion is to be aware of the added hit you will need to be able to play as FB/TtW. With that in mind if your [Valorous Frostfire Robe] is helping you achieve a set bonus then it should be one of the last things you trade off with the t8 or 8.5 pieces to be used as suitable replacements when you have a couple of them.

Well, i've done several builds of runes+Talents, with fixed weapons, 2 of This one, by lack of better one handed weapon, both without enchants, the rest of the gear is the normal premade dps gear. all with +hit gems to bring it closer to the hit cap, I know that i've favored one build, and there are still several things I lack testing, like Frost+Blood builds and using a fast OH, but that's for later(The damn arena vendor is despawned everytime I get to him >.<). But as of now, i've tested all the viables Deep Frost+Unholy and Half Frost+Half Unholy, and under the following conditions, I could only pull 2 builds over 3k:
-No Cooldown used(I mean, only sticking to the rotation)
-Heroic Target Dummy on 1 hp(sorry, everytime I went there it was like that >.<)
-Hitting the target alone
-Ungrouped
-Blood presence
And these are the two talent builds:
-1-Deep Frost or This one, small variation
-2-Half Frost Half Unholy, with FS
The best combination of Runeforging was Fallen crusader with Razorice(Although it seems with a fast OH Cindeglacier may work), the best rotations are:
-PS, IT, OB, BS, BS--OS, OS, OS--IT, PS, OB, BS, BS--OS, OS, OS-- While dumping RP with FS as much as you can and using HB on every rime proc.
-PS, IT, OB, BS, BS--OS, OS, OS--IT, PS, OB, BS, BS--OS, OS, OS-- While dumping RP with FS as much as you can(while not disturbing the rotation).
As you can see, both rotations are very similar(equal ffs), but the added rime to the first makes it really unstable and unpredictable, so I can say that I didn't got all I could from it, I had problems pulling it because of my latency, but values from what I got:
First one I got 4.3k dps on the training dummy, totally focused on the rotation and procs
Second one I got 3.5k dps, dpsing normally
Result: The first one is to be used in a fight with almost no movimentation, and not much things going on, because it really requires that you be insanely focused(much likely the druid rotation)
The second one is best suited to moviment fights, and for people who are beginning, I still need to see if with the variables posted in the start I can pull the dps higher or get a equivalent but easier rotation.
I'm going to post the math of these once I finish with the variables I said.
PS:On the first rotation I didn't used a Ghoul, on the second one I did.
PS2: Please feel free to show any mistake I did.

hey guys, currently i am using pyrite infuser + grim toll, i am thinking to replace pyrite infuser with darkmoon card : greatness. so, is it worth a try?

i have off set +hit rating gears, so i dont have any issues in hit rating since i already well capped in hit rating at both set up

just want to know which one better: pyrite infuser or greatness trinket

currently my critical chance sitting at 43.53%, do i still need to stacking agi/crit rating to push up my critical chance or put more at AP? i am running t8.5 4 set, CQC spec using CS and GS-S, 18/51/2 build. i have malice and rune etched nigtblade, but i have not try combat sword yet since wotlk.

i really need feedback on my build since it is haunting me everynight :E

thanks before

Does anyone know which is the yellow hit rating cap for " 51/7/13 (late Ulduar, 4/5 T8) " having 2/5 points on precision ?

with and without a spriest or boomkin in raid

Nevermind, I fail at reading comprehension. It's on the front page of this thread.

Edit: I do fail but I'm still right.

Tidied up a bit recently. I found that I could fix a lot of long-time problems with my interface by not displaying my minimap - however the fading feature on SexyMap appears to be slightly buggy, in that when you tell it to fade to transparent, it only fades out the actual "map" and the UI around it, while leaving the dots of things you're tracking still visible (until you mouseover).

This is amazing!

There's almost no circumstance where I care about anything other than where and what tracked dots are, the background map doesn't actually matter. And when I really care about the map I'll use a fullscreen overlay centred on myself anyway (again with just the dots, no actual map textures), for instance when I'm mining.
