i got a question , why is eye for an eye even an option ? name me 1 boss that does physical dmg currently to anyone but tanks in EN and second  why also would someone not pick justicar's vengeance in raids ??  it's the best ability there is, realistically it can save you , world of glory seems also a bad choise especially on keystones ( haven't gone further than 9 yet ) ussually getting something down faster is better than off-healing , we got LoH for that sort of situations anyway 

ToV
hymdal :

1=does phyiscal ability called dancing blades and horn of valor

 

Guarm

1= roaring leap and headlong charge

 

NM

elerethe

1= drop damage is phyiscal  (vile ambush)

2= bird form gathering clouds

Usroc

 

cenarious

thron damage burn

 

xavius = depends on your corruption /blades.

 

So those are at least 6 boss encounters where you take a lot of physical damage and that ability can mitigate it.

 

its a utility tier talent so you can choose w/e you feel you want to. its just that i recommend what i found the most reliable which was E2E.

WoG can be helpful in a clutch situations as well, since healing can crit, but its up to you in the end since its a utility tier.

I'm unsure if it has been posted but it's also worth noting at higher gear levels there is another haste breakpoint at 31.25% haste, making haste at that level significantly better than all other stats, even strength, and making blade of wrath far more tantalizing than Blade of Justice.

you see, blade of wrath is a passive that procs blade of justice :p

Guest chrono shard questio

hey all 872 ret pally here with legendary cape and belt, i recently got the neck and chrono trinket. When it procs im at 44% haste, with crusade up its over 120% i believe. 

My in game stats are 

crit 20 

haste 24 

mastery 35

ver 3

I could drop haste for crit , 

Thoughts, i could also gear and get 31.5% haste if that is where to go but ill be swimming in it with lust and wings

 

Thanks

In honesty, your best bet is probably just through simming yourself for weights and checking out the plot graph of your stats.

What was the rationale for removing the advice to rush Ashes-to-Ashes, followed by stockpiling points and reseting?

Because that method was used to get the best out of your wep during the first 4 weeks of the expansion where your damage was needed, which by no means is needed at this point of game.

How ever since we are way past that point hence there is no use for doing that any more, and shortly with a.k up to 10 being purchasable then getting the 64k wont take 2/3 days at worst.

For me, it is (checked via SimCraft) better to use Versatility gems instead of Crit/Haste (with over 23%).

This will change depending on your current stat values. A personal sim doesn't mean general advice should always change. It might be that Farion has some planned updates that mirror what you have found, but it is more likely that your personal weights are simply different.

I wasn't sure where to post this but I thought I would do it under the ret paladin section. Inside the build and talents section there is a typo, underneath the tier 7 (100 talents) the display for Crusade is wrong. I just thought I should bring it to someone's attention.

What do you mean by the display?

Something that I think would be helpful, would be a general "break point" to where if you're gaining XX item levels, say 10, it's worth it for the STR even if its loaded with mastery as a secondary stat.

The problem is, this will depend on your character. It's impossible to create a general breakpoint for it simply because it depends on your current weights. An example would be 2 Rets that both have 830 item level. One of them has 2 Mastery trinkets, one has 2 Strength trinkets. Their strength weight would most likely jump around a fair amount in comparison to other stats.

The guides are currently being updated for 7.1.5! I just wanted to leave a few notes for all of our users that might be getting ready to leave a comment:

  • Some pages do not require updates. The "Last Updated" stat does not mean the page is out of date, it might just not have needed any changes. If you feel that it does, leave a comment telling us what needs changing and why.
  • The process will not happen immediately - some guides will be updated faster than others simply due to the number of resources available. Be patient, they'll be ready when you need them!
  • There might be some continuity errors when making small adjustments to large guide pages. If you do find one of these, just let us know in the comments and we'll get it fixed ASAP.
  • "Why have you not taken into account X buff to X ability?" - remember, just because something got buffed, it doesn't mean it is now automatically better than the other options!

As always, we want to thank you all for being patient while we get things updated and I'm always available to help you all if you need it :)

Regarding the legendary top 5 list,  I think you forgot about the Chain of Thrayn reworking (now causes AW/Crusade to increase damage by an additional 20%).

The talents page says if you have the Whisper of the Nathrezim legendary back that Final Verdict is the prefered talent tier 1 choice. However I simmed both Final Verdict and Execution Sentence.. and Execution Sentence gives me a 10k dps increase WITH the legendary back. So Execution Sentence should be the choice for single target for everyone, regardless of having the legendary back.

On a dummy in-game(1 minute) cba doing longer atm, I noticed Final Verdict was pulling ahead slightly. So why does simcraft say Execution Sentence is a 10k dps increase for me?

There's a variety of things that could cause it - do you have the most up-to-date SimCraft version? What sim are you running? There are modifications happening with new versions being released like every 4-5 hours ATM.

      Dragonflight Season 4 is upon us and here's a handy visual gearing guide by Reddit user gandalin1306 to help you get started!
      If you're curious about the upgrade tracks for season 4 and the crests required for upgrades, look no further. Here’s a detailed visual guide created by Reddit user gandalin1306.
      Update: gandalin1306 updated the gearing guide, adding Whelpling Crest drops to Heroic dungeons. The image below has been updated.

      We've already talked about and taken a first look at the Delve-specific mount coming in the War Within, but now it's time to check out all of its customization options! 
      LeystTV has delved into the mount and shown off all the options, from the different colors to nose, wing, thruster, and top customizations, with glider, blimp, helicopter looks and more! There's even different versions of Horde and Alliance decals to choose from! 

      And these may not even be all the options present at launch, not to mention new ones Blizzard might add with later patches, making this one of the cooler mounts in the game.

      We have a Crest switch fix and weekly maximum increase, as well as a quest fix in retail, the big class tuning pass for Season of Discovery, and more in today's hotfixes.
      April 23 (Source)
      Items
      Season 3 (Dreaming) crests are now correctly removed from players' currency tabs. Players have received a small amount of gold for their unused Dreaming Crests. Players can now earn up to 120 crests of each type per week in Dragonflight Season 4 (was a maximum of 90 per week in Season 3). This will allow for up to 8 upgrades per week, per crest type (was 6 in Season 3). Developers' notes: For players who don't reach their maximum crest earnings in a given week, we've implemented the increasing-seasonal-cap system from previous seasons. Please note that this increase is likely applicable to Season 4 only. We expect the weekly maximum to return to 90 for The War Within Season One. Quests
      Resolved an issue where abandoning the quest "Something Worth Celebrating" could make it unavailable. Cataclysm Classic
      The dates for Children’s Week have been adjusted so that the holiday begins and ends three days later than previously scheduled. Season of Discovery
      Players who have completed the quest "Warranty Claim" but have misplaced their Pristine G-7 C.O.R.E. Processor before handing in the quest "Salvaging the Salvagematic" may now speak with the Lost and Found vendor Rix Xizzix in Booty Bay to recover the misplaced quest item. Fixed a Sunken Temple issue where the Atal'ai Defenders encounter would not reset properly. Druid The Natural Weapons talents now increases all damage done by druids in Season of Discovery, instead of just physical damage. The Gale Winds rune now reduces the mana cost of Hurricane by 60%. Swiftmend no longer consumes a Rejuvenation or Regrowth effect on the target when used. Developers’ notes: Please note that it does still require Rejuvenation or Regrowth to be on the target to be used. Hunter Rapid Killing now reduces the cooldown of Rapid Fire by 80% (was a reduction of 2 minutes). Chimera Shot weapon damage percent increased to 135% (was 120%). Explosive Shot base damage before attack power increased by 50%. Sniper Training has an additional new effect: while Sniper Training is at 5 stacks, Aimed Shot is instant. Serpent Spread now causes Multi-shot to apply Serpent Sting to its targets for 12 seconds (was 6 seconds). Steady Shot now deals 100% weapon damage (was 75%). Developers’ notes: There are more adjustments coming for Hunters. In general, we intend to improve the ranged playstyle and diminish the melee playstyle so that the two become more equivalent. Paladin Seal of Righteousness damage can now be critical hits. Sacred Shield’s duration is extended to 60 seconds (was 30 seconds). Crusader Strike has now gained an additional effect: Crusader strike now refreshes all judgement effects active on the target to a 30 second remaining duration. Seal of Martyrdom can now “twist” with other seals, including Seal of Command. Developers’ notes: Seal twisting was an interesting emergent effect that became popular during the original Burning Crusade, that utilized the slower server messaging system used in early versions of WoW to slightly extend the duration of the paladin’s active seal for a short time whenever a second seal was cast. This effectively allowed paladins to momentarily gain the benefit of two seals at once if they timed the application of a new seal to line up perfectly just before their weapon swing. We recreated this playstyle in Burning Crusade Classic and since then it’s been a popular request in other versions of original WoW, including Season of Discovery. As the game matures and we continue to listen to player feedback however, we recognize that for some, this is part of the charm and uniqueness of playing a paladin during those early eras of WoW’s history. We consider this change to be experimental and we will watch the performance and behavior of Retribution closely after this change. Priest Shadowform now increases all shadow damage done by 25% (was 15%). Rogue Saber Slash bleed now stacks up to 5 times. Saber Slash bleed now also increases the impact damage done by Sinister Strike and Saber Slash by 15% per stack for the rogue who applied the bleed. Saber Slash bleed now deals 3% of the rogue’s Attack Power in damage per tick (was 5%). Shaman Mental Dexterity now only triggers from dealing damage with Stormstrike and Lava Lash, and it now lasts 30 seconds (was 10 seconds). Burn now increases Flame Shock Damage by 100% and flame shock DoT duration by 6 seconds, and causes Flame Shock to strike up to 5 targets (was 3 targets). Developers’ notes: We’ve received a lot of feedback about the overall usability of mental dexterity, particularly for Elemental Shamans. This ability was not intended to be used by elemental, so the adjustments we’ve made are to help ensure its usage is a bit more enhancement-centric. To compensate, we’ve increased the output and usability of the Burn rune, with a slight quality-of-life improvement in the form of a Flame Shock duration increase which allows two Lava Burst casts to be used within a single Flame Shock duration.
