This is the thread for simple questions that don't fit anywhere else. If your question applies to one of the existing thread topics, please post it there instead; if you expect to generate significant additional discussion, create a new thread. If, however, you have a simple question that only requires a simple answer and don't see a better place to post it, this is your thread.

Note that all forum rules still apply. Before posting, you should still Search (How To Use Search) to verify that the answer isn't already available. Asking people to make specific gear or spec decisions for you is still against the rules.

It's either not showing up in the logs or there's a legitimate bug preventing it from proccing. I recommend going to Blizzard's official forums with a log report and your testing methodology to see what's going on in case it is an actual bug. Try testing at certain distances and angles from the target dummy since some effects have been known to not work unless you're right on top of the target.

Edit: This was just a reporting error. The proc seems to function correctly.

I only have very limited experience with elemental force since (and pre) 5.1 since I bought a cheap weapon with EF on it to farm Viscidus for the pet. I noticed my combat log didn't show any procs either, however it does work for shattering Viscidus. So I'm not sure where it goes wrong, but based on how the boss reacts EF does proc.

I have a question about Execution Sentence. Which buffs increase the DPS of this spell.
Strength, Haste (more ticks?), AP (= more SP), etc?

Execution Sentence takes a snap shot of your AP/SP, crit, AW and Inquisition when you cast it. So it's smart to use ES together with procs/potions/GoAK/use items whenever possible without delaying it too much. I believe others in the ret have tested/shown that it does not get affected by haste or bloodlust.

I have a question. I have not been able to find the time to check this out or not, hoping to before tonight's raid.

Does a disc priests bubbles and a holy pally's bubbles stack, or cancel? I mean if a disc priest divine agies is stacked up to 200k and the holy pally's is stacked up to 120k does the tank have 320k absorbs?

When it comes to stats, I understand that ret paladins are supposed to make it their first priority to cap hit and expertise, as mentioned in the ret paladin thread here. However, I have a question about this -- what is considered expertise capped for a ret paladin? Should a ret paladin be stopping at 7.5%, or push for the full hard cap of 15%?

As a ret, or in general any DPS that is subject to parry, you should be attacking from behind as much as possible, which means that going for expertise over the dodge cap is unnecessary, as bosses cannot parry attacks from behind. So the 7.5% is all you need to shoot for.

Hello everyone,

me and another ret Paladin from my Guild are facing a pretty stupid Problem, maybe some of you already experienced the same problems and even came up with a solution.

It's a bit hard to describe, but basicly our problem seems to be some kind of lag issue, the better our gear gets - the more haste we get to be specific.

It sounds kinda stupid, but it looks something like this: Pushing the button for exorzism causes the attack in the bar to pop up and triggers the global cd but nothing happens for a while! After the gcd passed half or even three fourths the cooldown of the attack starts and deals actual damage.

Its even worse with the skills that consume holy power like TV. The GCD is almost ready when the holy power is consumed.

The entire thing is pretty annoying since it really costs dps, in tries where the "lag problem" as we call it is none or low, we deal about 20 to 40 k more dps, and the entire thing is waaaaaaaaaay worse in bloodlust.

First two things you might think is our PC's suck and our internet sucks. Both is defently not! the case, we both got pretty awesome computers and fast internet connection. We didnt face this kind of problem before, untill ret paladin became a haste class.

Do you have any experience or even solution for this situation? Some kind of network setting, maybe an addon, maybe a particular addon wich causes this to get rid of? We appreciate EVERY kind of help, since this is really affecting our gameplay.

if you want to inspect our chars because of haste values or what not, we're Anvilandy and Verithy from EU Dethecus.

Thank you very much in advance, looking forward hearing from you!

I have a question about AOE situations. At what point (number of targets) does HoR and DS overtake Exo and HoW. And is this affected by SW?

So if I cast a SW and am fighting X targets, at what point does my rotation change from HoW>Exo/J>HoW>TV to HoR>HoW/Exo>HoR>DS?
