[Cataclysm] Warrior: Simple Questions/Simple Answers
 

Just wanting to double check this assumption: as far as pve is concerned, is it safe to say that it's possible to keybind MS and CS to the same key, putting CS on priority, at no dps loss? I can't think of a single instance where you would want to cast MS over CS, and you'd still be able to use MS when CS is on cooldown.

You don't want to cast CS when your CS debuff is still on the target, like a Sudden Death proc right after you used CS.

Is it possible to make a macro for slam with inner rage use? something like

#showtooltip slam
/cast Inner Rage
/cast Slam
/cancelaura Inner Rage

For now the macro works....but you have to use it 2 times. And if it is possible...Is it possible to get the flash effect of the procc to get shown on the macro button?

EDIT: Ok the flash effect isn't realy needed because of the Blizzard version of the power aura proccs.

Is Rude Interruption still better than other talents given that it (currently) is consumed on your next yellow swing?

E: for Arms PvE that is

Ex2: After some slight testing, only MS and OP will consume it. Slam, CS, Rend or HS won't consume it, haven't tested execute yet. Most likely a bug, but still wondering if I should spec out of Rude Interruption for the time being.

Having only recently come back to the game after a long break I only got experience from Fury side of things so far, but Rude Interruption isn't supposed to work like that. Instead it's a general 5% damage buff for 15/30 seconds like the tooltip states.

Perhaps it's bugged and gets overwritten by Lambs to the Slaughter?

After testing it in heroics today I'm quite sure that Lambs to the Slaughter is overriding it, not sure if it's intended to be that way or it's currently bugged. For PvE arms this frees up two points for either Executioner or Blood and Thunder.

What should we be using in our ranged slot? I can't find a single strength non-tank 333+ blue item for us on wowhead.

There is none. The best is probably the Vortex Pinnacle ranged tank weapon.

There is crossbow available with STR by doing one of the Uldum quests,I belive its 67 or 69 Str

Well, Thundercall has 95 Str, 68 mastery and 56 parry rating(40% reforge), so this should be the pre epic BiS ranged.

At the moment the ilvl restriction on [Eternal Belt Buckle] is not working correctly, but this will be fixed soon

Also the current gemming situation seems to be a bit odd. There are no green gems with str on them (which are required should the meta activation req stay in place) and the "best" available is mastery / hit. Needless to say the loss of DPS from gemming these stats instead of pure str outweighs the loss of one meta, especially when the bonus effect is critical damage. Just wondering if it would be worth going for the runspeed increase meta (1red, one blue, one yellow activation) and chanting boots for something a little more DPS friendly is the way forward at the moment. With hit as well i'm finding the benefits from gemming out for it thanks to the amount required per % are not as prolific as going pure str, but again these are only my observations and currently I have no figures to back this up with.

So what weapon enchantment do we use until landslide is available?

if you need to use something, just use berserking. The materials are extremely cheap since the expansion.

Avalanche is also a good enchant for its price. It's 2% from my damage at >10k dps.
