I actually see your point and am fine with that if that's how Blizz is going to do Guard going forward. However, there is still the binary state of Guard, isn't there?

I mean, if a BM pulls a mob...

With the changes to Tiger Palm for Brewmaster in 5.1, is anyone familiar with a change to Guard? I did not read anything that would materially change Guard so unless I just missed it some patch note,...

Even if the enchants for dual wielding outweigh a 2h, would that outweigh the significant stat allocation that would be required to cover the significantly higher hit/exp requirements for dual...

I don't think Monks are overpowered for any fights. I relayed that Mione called them, "too good".

My question was whether the stat disparity for Monks based on fight mechanics was such that for...

Lairpie, you are correct, of course. My point was that most tanks not in top guilds generally don't build multiple sets of gear. They may have a few swap pieces, but there's a delineation between...

An FYI from the current PTR.

The Glyph of Fire Elemental Totem now reads:

Use: Reduces the cooldown of your Fire Elemental Totem by 5 min.

So, it seems that no, it won't be worth using as a glyph...

Just so ya know... it's not nearly as easy as all that. What I mean is that while Mono is native, it still has to compile a Windows app. And that is never a one and done deal. I was hoping for a...

Rather than be bad and ask questions I can find out myself, I've been reading for several hours through the various threads and don't see an answer.

Are there any sims that work on a Mac for Ele?...

Btw, a revisit on using CL on FC. I did see the AoE reduction. So there's that. Buuuut.....

What I found is that creating incidental dmg put the not so smart healer AI into super overheal mode, so...

See, I thought what you thought, which is why I was confused when my CLs were hitting like normal or what seemed like normal. I dunno to what degree the FCs reduce AoE, which may be the ultimate...

Perhaps it was an aberration, but when I added CL over my typical single target rotation, even with the AoE reduction, my dps went up. I realize this was totally anecdotal and wouldn't at all present...

On my last 25 man ToC (edit: faction champions), I did this very thing. It was very hard on mana. Toward the end of the fight, I was forced to abandon CL in the rotation until I could regen a bit...

Preciate the feedback. I find the dynamics of the discussion interesting.

This is what intrigues me. Rather than ammo, the ability to have specific "relic" types of magic ammo leads to some really nice customization.

Perhaps an ammo that redirects 5% of threat to the pet?...

A reply about hit

Guilds are different. My guild is a very odd guild in that we've always been tank and healer heavy and almost always lacked exceptional dps. At least until recently. Most dps fights were beyond us,...
