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.

      Blizzard has added Glyph of Jab for Monks in the War Within, making Tiger Palm strike your target with your equipped weapon!
      We've got some great news for all Monk players out there. In the War Within expansion, Blizzard has added Glyph of Jab that makes Tiger Palm strike your target with your equipped weapon, instead of your fists.

      In the past, Glyph of Jab was a minor glyph used by monks, designed to ensure that the Jab ability was executed with hands and fist animations even when non-fist weapons were equipped. You will find more details here.

      We've looked at the number of chapters of the War Within level-up campaign and compared it to Dragonflight.
      War Within Level Up Campaign
      The level-up campaign in each zone consists of 3 chapters, so you will end up with a total of 12 level-up chapters in the new expansion. You will spend roughly an hour completing the main storyline in each zone.

      Isle of Dorn (Zone 1 Level Up Questing)
      Chapter 1: Breaking Point Chapter 2: Earthen Fissures Chapter 3: The First Blow The Ringing Deeps (Zone 2 Level Up Questing)
      Chapter 1: By Candlelight Chapter 2: Dark Revelations Chapter 3: The Monster and the Machine The Hallowfall Arathi (Zone 3 Level Up Questing)
      Chapter 1: The Guiding Start Chapter 2: Gathering Shadows Chapter 3: Hope in Solidarity  Azj-Kahet (Zone 5 Level Up Questing)
      Chapter 1: Friends in the Dark Chapter 2: Unraveling the Trapped Chapter 3: Plans within Plans Dragonflight Campaign Chapters
      When we compare War Within level up chapter numbers with Dragonflight zones, the expansion shipped with a total of 15 level-up chapters spread across 4 zones:
      Waking Shores had 5 campaign chapters. Ohn'ahran Plains shipped with 4 campaign chapters. Azure Span had 4 campaign chapters. Thaldraszus shipped with 3 campaign chapters. Max-Level Campaign
      The War Within (Max Level Questing) consists of 4 chapters. The fourth campaign name is unknown at this time and Blizzard will most likely hotfix it.

      Blizzard have shared this week's Rogue changes, as well as plans for future adjustments to Fatebound and Trickster Hero trees.
      (Source)
      Greetings Rogues,
      This week’s Alpha build includes many changes to Class and Spec talent trees, including a handful of positional swaps, tuning changes, and a few new and redesigned talents.
      Feedback about these changes is welcome, so please post here with any notable experiences or opinions from your play in the Alpha test.
      More change will be coming over the next few weeks, focused primarily on hero talents. Deathstalker is still lurking in the shadows and will be revealed when it’s ready (sometime in the next few weeks).
      For Fatebound, more completed talents will be rolling in over time, and we have also been following gameplay and written feedback which will be cause for iterations to existing talents.
      For Trickster, we’ve been following all of your feedback, and it has generated significant internal discussion. While the core pieces will remain in place (Unseen Blade, the Fazed debuff, and a grand finish in Coup de Grace), we expect to revisit the gameplay that fuels this engine, and most notably move away from Feint being a primary applicator of Unseen Blade. Unexpected randomly-timed procs of Unseen Blade have also proven to cause trouble and are being similarly reconsidered, in addition to minor updates for other talents.
      Thank you to those who have played the Alpha and spent the time to share experiences and opinions so far. Keep it coming!
      And here are this week's changes:
      (Source)
      ROGUE New Talent: Shadowheart – Leech increased by 3% while Stealthed. Acrobatic Strikes has been redesigned – Auto-attacks increase auto-attack damage and movement speed by 1% for 3 seconds, stacking up to 10%. Developer’s note: Acrobatic Strikes no longer increases the range of melee attacks. We are revisiting increased melee range talents across the game, and most are being removed. Default melee range has increased since these talents were originally created, allowing specs with increased range to attack from well outside where it appears they should be able to. Cut to the Chase moved from Assassination talent tree to baseline all specs, triggering from Envenom/Dispatch/Eviscerate. Vanish’s guaranteed stealth duration now 1.5 seconds in PvP combat (base 3 seconds). Tight Spender now reduces Energy cost of finishing moves by 6% (was 10%). Subterfuge is now a 2-point talent, effect duration 3/6 seconds. Some talents have moved locations. Without a Trace moved from Subtlety to Class tree in capstone location, replacing Shadow Dance. Nightstalker has been removed. Assassination New Talent: Rapid Injection – Envenom deals 10% increased damage while Envenom’s effect is active. Serrated Bone Spike has been redesigned – (Passive) Prepare a Serrated Bone Spike every 30 seconds, stacking up to 3. Rupture spends a stack to embed a bone spike in its target: Deals Physical damage and Bleed damage every 3 seconds until the target dies or leaves combat. Refunds a stack when the target dies. Generates 1 combo point plus 1 additional per active bone spike. Serrated Bone Spike initial damage reduced by 24% and damage over time damage reduced by 9%. Improved Garrote effect duration increased to 6 seconds (was 3 seconds). Indiscriminate Carnage effect duration reduced to 6 seconds (was 10 seconds). Kingsbane damage bonus per poison application now has a stated cap at 1000% from 50 stacks (was 1980% at 99 stacks). Kingsbane base damage over time increased by 6%. Developer’s note: Kingsbane was originally intended to be uncapped, but abilities and talents introduced in the Dragonflight expansion allowed players to reach its previously-unreachable hidden cap. Increasing or removing the cap in the current environment would reinforce poor gameplay outcomes and continue to constrain talent options, so a lower cap is being introduced with the intention of having Kingsbane remain a valuable component of any build that includes it, but not by being required as every build’s all-important main character. Sepsis has been removed. Outlaw Ace Up Your Sleeve now grants 4 combo points when triggered (was 5). Mastery: Main Gauche damage increased by 24%. Adrenaline Rush has been updated: No longer increases global cooldown recovery rate by 25% while active. Now increases global cooldown recovery rate equal to your Haste while active, up to 25%. Now increases Energy regeneration by 50% (was 60%). Count the Odds effect now has base chance 10% (was 8%) and duration 8 seconds (was 5 seconds), but no longer doubled while Stealthed. Underhanded Upper Hand no longer affects Slice and Dice duration and no longer grants 3 seconds of Subterfuge duration (Stealth ability use). Crackshot’s Dispatch effectiveness reduced to 50% (was 75%). Thief’s Versatility now increases Versatility by 3% (was 4%). Some talents have moved locations. Sepsis has been removed. Subtlety Premeditation has been redesigned – After entering Stealth, your next combo point generating ability generates full combo points. Invigorating Shadowdust now reduces cooldowns by 10/20 seconds (was 15/30 seconds). Shadow Dance moved from the Class talent tree to Subtlety talent tree. Shadow Focus now reduces costs by 5%. Some talents have moved locations.
