New Unheeded Warning

Is the new Unheeded Warning any good for combat? I know the old one was not that great because just white damage wasn't that strong, but now that it increases weapon damage does that make it better?

For you humans hoping to use a MH that hooks into your racial, the new-and-improved Onyxia in 3.2.2 appears to drop a new-and-improved level 245 version of Vis'kag the Bloodletter: 2.6 speed,...

Your math is right, but it looks like your conclusion is flawed. It's easier to see what is happening if you approach it from the front, the way the server would calculate the damage. The question...

Now, I haven't tested this personally because my guild sucks and we haven't got to Vezax yet. But the entire haste/slow fiasco was fixed in patch 1.12 (http://www.wowwiki.com/Haste#Patch_1.12) to...

Generally you spend most of your time without enough energy to do anything useful (because if you had enough energy to do something, you'd do it). So, rather than just stand around and watch yourself...

For sustained dps, the Hyperspeed Accelerators are still quite a bit better. I think this buff is meant to make the rocket convincingly worth the GCD in pvp for all classes (except probably magi). At...

The 4T8 bonus is quite powerful and will be extremely tough to break for t9. Aldriana is right (as usual) on this one. However, I feel it's also a good point though that most other DPS 4T8 bonuses...

WearYourNR.gif, indeed. Did you ever find out which number sucker you were in this total pull failure? I would guess around 31 or 32, just by starting at 3k and multiplying by 1.5 several times. My...

How does the new Envenom glyph compare for Combat? The new buffed Deadly Poison is again convincingly better than WP for Combat offhands (as it always should have been), so actually having DP stacked...

I'm using the Hyperspeed Accelerators right now, and they definitely have exactly half the cooldown of Blade Flurry and Killing Spree, i.e. 60 seconds. They're not a great improvement over Crusher,...

I believe the massive preference for fast/fast is a mistake on Blizzard's part, and one that will be corrected (eventually), especially now that Combat is facing the same situation. Just look at the...

I'm forced to agree with Verre here. The fact that mutilate prefers fast weapons wildly to slow is already kind of broken, plus it means all those 1.8 speed daggers are just shard loot because no one...

I expect HAT to be changed, not for any of the reasons Previn mentioned, but because as it stands it goes against Blizzard's stated goal of removing the effect of party-within-raid. Same reason...

Certainly there are bosses on which Killing Spree sits somewhere between "a bit of a risk" and "certain death": Thaddius comes to mind particularly, and I'm always careful to hit it in the first five...

They're extremely close, it's true, but I'm pretty sure the Tear is better in all but the very worst of low-AP situations. Look at it this way: imagine you had a Twilight Opal that gave 8 Sta, 4 Agi,...
