Is there any point where Haste stops being our best secondary stat, after hit obviously.

Apologies in advance for not being able to determine this myself, I'm not sure how to model something like this:

Is there any conclusive evidence on whether normal mode Ti'Tahk is superior to a heroic 410 staff off another Dragon Soul boss? Obviously Heroic Ti'tahk probably wins, but since it drops off Madness, and nothing comes after him, it's pretty irrelevant, and I'm having a hard time figuring out what I want to use.

As a matter of fact, heroic Lightning Rod beats even heroic Ti'tahk for personal dps from what I've seen. The haste proc is nice but it costs too many other stats for it to be effective. Go for Lightning Rod. Ticktocks should go to healers so they can in turn buff dps with the proc.

Is breaking normal t12 4piece worth getting normal t13 2piece?

I have a small question. I'm looking at the DoT haste numbers on the spreadsheet that was linked, and I found out that if I take an Elixir of Might speed (+225 haste) ill will be on 3646+ haste rating (with DI) and thus having an extra tick. Is it worth though going for the extra tick opposed to gaining 300 int from a flask?

Thanks in advance for answers!

Not worth it.

This is not really strictly about balance druid, but i can't find anywhere els to fit the subject better.
So on several occasions i have noticed my dps spikeing ALOT in 25 man raids, but i have not been able to figure out why.. In our 10 man group, we have every possible buff and debuff for casters and here i find myself pulling about 38-40k dps (including 3% crit from arcane, and dark intent). So the other day i was a stand in in a buddys guild run, (25man) the needed a boomkin and i was free so wth, and here i have not got dark intent or the arcane critbuff, but im still pulling off 47.1k dps at the end of the battle (first boss).. How does this happen? it feels as if i have more haste in 25 man, but again, we have all possible buffs in 10man.

Another thing, on Madness i find myself pulling 55-60k dps in 10 man, and in LFR i find myself at 75k~ depending on the group ofc but atleast always over 70k. But in 10 man i would never ever been able to pull those numbers as i do in 25 man.

Anyone know what is upp here, i have tried to google but without success..
And this goes for all bosses i have done on 25 man vs 10 man.
Lets say we're doing LFR, with the others dps in our guild, then all of our dps spikes and we're all doing lots of more damage but we still keep out "1,2,3,4" placement on the dps as we would in 10 man on morchok.


I for one can't find what would do this change in damage, the battles last about as long and suposedly we have the same buffs.. I have always been very intrester in optimizing my character and find it alot of fun being to great use for my guild so if anyone could explain this to me i would be very greatful!

ain't there a specific buff on LFR ? Like in 5men ?

Cause i also do ~65k on LFR DW and more like ~55k on 10men DW.

Do we have a list of the trinkets ranked by efficiency ?

Hello, I've come to a ring dilema. I'm not sure if Double Valor rings will be better than what I have now.

Current:

Seal of the Grand Architect. (Valor)
Infernal Signet of the Avengers. (Avengers of Hyjal)

With these two rings I have 3087 haste and 1196 mastery.

Or:

Seal of the Grand Architect. (valor)
Band of Reconstruction. (valor)

With these two rings I drop down to around 29xx haste. for a trade of more mastery. And obviously more int. I'll also get a tad more hit, so I can probably squish out a bit more mastery from reforging.

I never have Dark intent in raids.

No, it is not. The treants' damage is independent of the moonkin's damage multipliers. The only thing the treants inherit are spellpower and hit.

I believe the bosses in LFR have less health, which means that you will do more damage over a shorter fight, typically speaking.

Use AskMrRobot for your gearing needs. It is usually correct.

How does Owlkin Frenzy work with AoE?

I never see it on my buff bar during raids, where I'll generally only take AoE damage. Can it only proc off of single target/melee attacks, or am I missing it being up?

Owlkin Frenzy is kinda weird. It only procs off of direct damage, but certain types of boss AOE do count as direct damage for the purposes of OF. Look at some combat logs to find fights where you should be seeing it up.
