Hello!  Making my way back to the game after a 6 year hiatus and luckily I ran into this wonderful guide.  I am just getting underway and wanted to use the add-ons suggested.  Question - for elvUI, there seem to be several listed at curse.  Do you suggest all of them, or is there just one that should be downloaded.

 

Thanks!

ElvUI isn't on Curse, it is on its own website here: http://www.tukui.org/dl.php  All of the ones you see on Curse are plugins for ElvUI.

So I'm having a hard time figuring out if the rings/necks i recieve are better or worse with them now having a main stat anymore. I downloaded pawn and was just wondering if someone has a scale for enhancements now in legion?

Thanks!

I received Swarming Plaguehive (Heroic) with enchancement loot chosen.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing that, it's not listed on the enh table for me, so it's good to know that it drops for Enh.

General stat weights can be pretty misleading sometimes, you're better of simming your own character to have accurate weights. If it makes you feel any better, my Paladin tank is using an 830 Haste/Vers neck simply because I can't get a better one to drop, despite having ones that are 860+.

Just was wondering which two trinkets i should choose , I have Bloodthirsty instinct (850) from ursoc , Unstable arcanocrystal (865) from world bosss , and memento of angerboda (850) from mythic + maw , Currently sitting at 28% crit , 17% haste , 65% mastery using bloodthirsty and unstable trinkets . 

Also was wonder if i should go down wind surge or gathering of the maelstorm next for my traits currently at 24 trait points followed the guild up untill this point and was thinking wind surge may increase my dps a bit more .

Thanks!

Going to tag @wordup, hopefully he can help. For the trinkets, I'd advise simming them on your own character.

I'm quite confused about the mastery:haste rating... i'm now at 10268(74,67%) mastery and 6185(30,93%) haste (with ancestral swiftness), which is 60,28% of my mastery.

without ancestral swiftness i'm at 19,03% haste, should i now lower my haste for mastery or stick to 60-65% regardless of ancestral swiftness?

Hi i have a question regarding stats:


Im currently sitting at 66% mastery and only 14% haste and im specced into Hailstorm.


Should i choose ancestral swiftness to get my haste up? Should I enchant/socket Haste to get to closer to the 60-65% range?
Currently with 14 to 66 Im sitting at about 21% haste to mastery ratio, so even though mastery is valued higher overall, should I use haste wherever possible to get a better scaling?

I use the mr. robot online simulator and simulating with Haste gives me worse outcomes but on live I feel like its better...what do you guys think? Thanks everyone in advance!

Wind Surge is arguably superior now thanks to the WF buff a couple of weeks ago, so I'd err on the side of grabbing that before Gathering now. It also has the added effect of making our priority burst even better.

I'm going to double check the importance of this ratio with our writers, will you let you know ASAP!

Thank you Blainie, your help is greatly appreciated! Also if i might ask, do you know the reason why in the Noxxic guide they state that Haste>Mastery...to be honest i was quiet confused but settled on the mastery>haste variant since more sites lean towards this prio.

I'll be honest, I can't really speak for them. If I had to guess, it might be that they simply did 1 sim, took the result of that and said that was the priority. There are a few factors that could have affected it though.

Hey guys. Just a quick question about SimCraft. I was wondering about 2 aspects that were looking weird on my recent simulations.

First one, ChronoShard. It says on simcraft that it gives me about 6.5k haste even tho it gives me 5k in game (ilevel 845 trinket), is SimCraft wrong about it and then overrates it, or is it just a tooltip issue ?


Second one, Windfury. Even tho we got a 10% proc chance buff recently, Windfury still shows at around 4.7% of my dps, even tho since it got buffed i see it more around 6.5% to 7% on my own dps chart, which would indicate that SimCraft didn't take into account that change either. 

 

Any insight on that ?

Are you using the correct bonus ID?

1) I'm importing my character from armory, so i don't really know if the ID is correct.

2) i have updated simcraft yesterday to the 3rd release, which is i believe the last one, correct me if i'm wrong.

If you're imported, then yeah, it very likely is. 

I just updated to the latest windows release (simc-703-04-win64-16c9839.7z) and it's at 4.9% on a standard T19 Enh profile. Perhaps it hasn't been updated then, I'm not sure. Maybe report it to them as a bug?

I am in need of help. My Doomhammer is currently on 887 itemlevel. From this weeks world boss I got 860 ilvl "Calamir's Jaw" which gives "Each target hit by crash lightning increases damage dealt by my next stormstrike by 2%. (which is semi ok).
BUT my current one is a 850 ilvl "Torch of shaladrassil" with 10% increased attack speed when stormstrike proccs.
So the question is, do I switch to the 860 ilvl one? It boosts doomhammer from 887 to 890. BUT i loose 10% attack speed. goes from 40% to 30%. Is it worth it? I feel stormstrike proccs alot and the attackspeed is very useful.

Hey guys, I have a question about the dps rotation. According to the guide, maintaining flametongue is lower priority than stormstrike. So say my boulderfist is up, at one stack, my stormstrike is up but I don't have enough maelstrom for it, and my flametongue buff is down. Do I go boulderfist - stormstrike - flametongue, or flametongue - boulderfist - stormstrike ? Same question for doom winds instead of flametongue. 

Thank you very much,

Yes, you should use the 860 relic.

What's about the Chronoshard as a trinket? Is it bad?

Chrono Shard is a relatively strong trinket in some cases (especially good in M+ where frontloaded procs gain a lot). I'd say it's in the top 1/3rd of trinkets right now and is a strong equip, especially if you get a good warforge/titanforge on it.

I rly dont understand why BIS boots are Ursoc's(1st) and not Elerethe's(2nd). The 1st one has mastery/critical strike(1st and 5th stats), and the other one is mastery/haste (1st and 2nd stats), its true that the 1st one has 100 more mastery than the other but i don't believe that having 100 more mastery + critical strike is better than -100 mastery + haste. What do u think guys?

      If you plan on buying the physical War Within Collector's Edition and live in Europe, you're going to have a bad time!
      Blizzard has ceased distributing WoW Collector's Editions through retailers with the release of Dragonflight, making the Blizzard Store the only place to buy them. However, the shipping costs could be a dealbreaker for many collectors eager to acquire the latest edition for the upcoming expansion.
      Reddit user katamai from Serbia posted a screenshot of their order, revealing that the shipping fees exceed the cost of the box itself—280 Euros for shipping compared to 200 Euros for the box, totaling 480 Euros.

      Additionally, Emi, a follower on our Facebook page, reported a shipping cost of 99 Euros to Romania, nearly ten times what it costs to ship to the UK.

      A practical workaround might be to order the Collector's Edition to a UK address and then use a shipping service to forward it to your address in Europe, potentially saving a considerable amount of money.
      How much does it cost to ship the box to your country?

      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.
