With the GCD at 1.5s the order would go tick one at 1s, GCD expires at 1.5s, tick two at 2s. With 199 haste it would be Tick 1 at 0.8866s, GCD up at 1.33s, tick 2 at 1.7733s, so yeah, 0.44s is...

I thought of one other benefit as well. This may open up the opportunity to increase DPS by cutting off MF after 1 tick to recast a higher DPS spell since you now should have 0.66 seconds before...

The past two weeks I sat for people that needed gear, but I got a decent WWS tonight. With one warlock and three shadow priests I was able to put out 1413 DPS over 4m45s. I was using major shadow...

Also consider the warlock to shadow priest ratio with a shadow priest dying early and one warlock having 40% shadowbolt crit. The shadow priest that topped 1500 only had to DPS for about 2:45,...

You'll have to quantify why you consider an item "best in slot." If you use the 0.4-0.6 haste per spell damage ratio, then these items fall right in with their pure damage counterparts. The items...

Nikita put it pretty well. One misconception I see within other posts is that 142 spell haste with 2.75s mind flays is optimal for a haste set. The reality is that 199 haste with 2.66s MF and 1.33s...

All of the game content has been cleared without pain suppression, so there is no dire need for such an ability. The reality is that it will be beneficial in a minute number of situations, and as a...

Whoever runs NRGServers is certainly at fault, but I have always hated Ventrilo's reseller only licensing. This means that the only way you can run your own server handling more than 8 clients is to...

The Icon proc activates the cooldown on the Skull, but not the other way around. If you want to use both at the same time you have to proc the skull first.
