Yar!!

If you would read the previous post, you would see that I stated "dwarf" gets advantage cause of racial, of which I and the asker---Dravous are both...

The list was specific to our race and class; just a quick ref is all...

Sorry if someone has already answered this. I skimmed over a few pages and didn't find any answer though... When I look in the spreadsheet, it shows Siren's being about 15 dps better than Giant's. However, most the posts here use Giant's over Siren's. I'm wondering which is better? I am a night elf with no racial bonus to weapons.

With my gear, Siren's comes out on top for non-dwarfs and Giant's comes out on top for dwarfs.

Yes Ginbar, it is me. Good to see you.

Thanks for the info, and yes it was with dwarf's in mind. However, I assume thats based on a SV build, and as Kom suggested, I believe it still may be ahead for MM. This is due to CS using weapon damage, and that gun is higher item level and slower, making CS hit that much harder.

Also, and correct me if I'm wrong on this, but I believe that it's slower speed will also increase the value of any haste. 15% haste will have greater total impact on a 3.0 speed weapon that a 2.9 speed weapon, although granted it would be very small increase.

Edit: Just to clarify, MM use a greater % of auto-shots, which would definitely benefit more from the higher DPS weapon and is what would allow haste to increase in value.

My hunter is in the above link. The spreadsheet shows that 2 points in GFTT is giving me more dps than Hunting party, or other options for that 1 point. Considering I am at a medium-high gear level, shouldnt it be different? If it is not, does this dps increase actually apply to actual raiding circumstances?

I get this as slightly better than other layouts for SV, going for 8% hit cap. Is it me, or can others confirm?

Hands: T8.25
Belt: Death-warmed
Legs: Legguards of Cunning Deception

Switch gems around if necessary.

I'm not seeing that staff nearly as BiS. Lot's of crit loss for a SV. I could see it being up there for BM maaaybe...

The staff is indeed the best in slot according to the spreadsheet. I just put in 2 scarlet rubies to make gemming simple. It's most likely thanks to the absurdly high ArP on that weap.
As for the xbow, it is the best in slot unless you are a dwarf. For dwarves, you need to be able to use the hit to make it BiS. It remains to be seen if we can swap other gears around to make a set of gears using the xbow to get better dps (ie is the hit gained more efficiently with the weap or some other slot).

How about trolls, Siren's Cry vs. the xbow?

I'm not sure why the above layout is with a 6/14/51 build, maybe I'm behind on my reading but I was under the impression that it was not the best spec anymore.

He didn't mention it specifically, but it is being assumed tradeskills are Jewelcrafting and Blacksmithing.
