So, will [Darkmoon Card: Greatness] return to being a BiS trinket due to the ARP changes? Taking [Grim Toll] or [Mjolnir Runestone] pretty much depending on whether you need the hit or not?

Unless I'm mistaken, with the changes to Savage Roar in 3.1 (increase in damage done as opposed to increase in attack power) as well as Rip gaining the ability to crit, [Darkmoon Card: Greatness] is much better than the strength card now. I don't feel qualified to speak to whether the card is a BiS item though. I'd recommend the FeralByNight thread for additional information, as well as using Rawr and Toskk's model.

Yeah, I just used [ ITEM][ /ITEM] tags and apparently the strength card is chosen by default. I was referring to the agility version.

I am going on the impression that both trinkets proc ontop of each other. Thus in my opinion it would. I loaded up my ideal gear set from Uldar onto Rawr just now. I'm sitting on ~540arp rating, which is approx 45% arp, having [Grim Toll] proc will bump that up to 95%+arp then if [Mjolnir Runestone] decides to proc while Grim Toll is active,it effectively wastes 45% arp.

However if both trinks proc consecutively rather than ontop of each other, this imo would still make Grim Toll and Runestone BIS trinkets.

I don't know if this has been asked before as i can't find any definite info on this.

I'm pretty new to feral tanking and an alchemist. I have considered the following trinkets i should use for tanking but haven't obtained any of them except [Indestructible Alchemist Stone]


[Indestructible Alchemist Stone]
[Defender's Code]
[Essence of Gossamer]
[Valor Medal of the First War]

I would like to know which combination of trinkets i should use for certain situations (eg. patchwerk, aoe tanking etc.) and which is the best for just equipping all the time.

There can't really be a definitive answer. Every fight favors different type of gear, depending on physical vs magic damage taken, fast or slow attacks etc.

Without going into much detail, I'd say Essence of Gossamer and Defender's Code is the best all round combo. Mix and match with the other 2 for stacking stamina or avoidance as needed per fight. And if you can get your hands on the agi darkmoon card, it's better than all of them.

In my opinion, the way you swapped your gear around is probably correct. Your biggest problem in gear seems to be the chest; compared with other items in that slot ([Chestguard of the Recluse] and [Winter's Icy Embrace]) you pick up a ton of unneeded hit and lack the expertise of the two other chests. I'm using Recluse at the moment and examining my options for if/when I pick up Embrace, but that seems to be the slot that you could change and get back to using the Pyrite Infuser.

Of course, that would also mean you would need to grab a T8 shoulder token to keep your set bonus.

There's no benefit from using haste with berserk unless you're on a boss that requires you to burst out max DPS in a small time frame (say Yogg brain or Vezax hard). (Haste procs OoC, Berserk doesn't reduce energy costs when you have OoC up).

Id recommend macroing it into tigers fury as the increased damage from TF and haste WILL stack, also, with beserk on a 3min CD and trinket on 2, you would be "wasting" trinket usage, whereas with TF on a 30 second cooldown, the trinket will see much better usage.
