Any chance we can get a BIS list of nighthold trinkets, or at least a paragraph about which trinkets we should be going after?

The Tier 19 Set Bonuses (both 2 and 4-piece) are valuable for Frost Death Knights (especially if using the Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa tier 7 talent).

So our T19 Set bonuses are useful, wow, what insight.

@Sylvannah1990 This should be coming very soon! I can't do much more than just apologise about the delay, I'm sorry! I've already put in a note about it to the writer/reviewer.

Both BoS and Obliteration builds have the same stat weights?

I mean, there are classes that the set bonuses aren't worth gearing for. Regardless, there should be more information coming soon. Sorry for the delay!

Totally skipped over the separate sections, apologies!

 

Also, it seems to be an oversight but Chains of the Valorous (Odyn) seemed to not make the cut for the trinket list. I have an 880 with Versa and it sims far and away above any other trinkets I have.

Hello.

I have 2 Questions regarding the BOS specc:

First is it viable to use Remorseless Winter even when fighting ST? I find it very hard if not sometimes impossible to keep the 10 stacks up into my next RW even while my breath is up. 

Second, are you sure about those Stat Priorities? If I Sim for 1 or 2 Targets Versatility is the highest (I do have to admit I do not have any vers on my DK but that should not matter?) and looking at DKs with high logs they dont seem to go above 30% Crit (plus EoC) and then stack Haste... it is a little hard to figure out with the buggy armory. What is your opinion on that?

Haha, I told you Freezing Fog might be useful, @Blainie :D

Anyway, I'm having a real hard time believing those trinket sims, unless they were done for the Obli build. There is no way on Earth CoF is worse than Horn of Valor. Even after the nerf. 

Also, does Perseverance become the strongest legendary after T19 2P? Or even before that? I've noticed that Howling Blast does a very hefty amount of my damage, being beaten only by Breath but is it really stronger than Torvaron's for Obli or Koltira's for BoS build?

Yes, even without the legendary helm. Try to time your RW usage with about 3 runes off cd. Rime procs count as 1 rune, interestingly enough.

Maybe because of Rime procs?

No worries, glad that you found what you needed :) As for the trinket list, I'll put in a request concerning them.

I don't think the low item level trinkets are going to change much for you - you can see the comparison between trinkets here on the same item level. Nothing will change if they are 850, 870 or 900, as long as they are the same ilvl.

It does seem like the sims are Obli-specific, but I'll double check!

It is, for sure, regardless of tier bonus.

Stat priorities change for different people. Your sims will always show something different than the priority because you have your own personal gear set. Keep in mind also that specific weights can constantly change - for example, you could sim yourself, get results, then change one gem and get completely different results after another sim. They are incredibly fluid, while we are trying to provide a general setup that anyone can aim for stat-wise.

Hey there! Small note - the description of the Icecap talent on builds and talent guide page is missing the fact that it applies to Frost Strike critical strikes as well, alongside Frostscythe and Obliterate. :)

Will get it fixed, thanks!

Macro related question:

How can I combine BoS and Arcane Torrent into 1 button? Specifically, so that I don't turn off BoS by spamming the button or cannot use Arcane Torrent until BoS is up? So far I've tried the following: 

1) /castsequence reset=120 Breath of Sindragosa, Arcane Torrent

2) /castsequence reset=120 Arcane Torrent, Breath of Sindragosa

3) /castsequence reset=120 Breath of Sindragosa
   /castsequence reset=120 Arcane Torrent

So far none of the above has given me the result I want. Either Arcane Torrent can be cast prematurely or BoS turns off.

Thanks!

I'll be honest, I'm pretty terrible with the macro-side of things, so I'm hoping someone else might be able to help you. If not, you could try asking on the UI forum?

You'll want to add [nochanneling] in some moves that break BoS. (If you have them macro bound), otherwise I've found that /cast [combat] !Breath of Sindragosa to work also.

In the case of arcane torrent, /cast [nochanneling] arcane torrent should work on a second line, that is if arcane torrent is off the GCD.

Have a play with it and you'll be able to deduce what's breaking it. (Remember pressing it a second time does cancel BoS)

      Executive Producer Holly Longdale teased some upcoming experimental PvE-focused content that Blizzard will soon reveal to the community.
      It appears that Plunderstorm isn't the only new mode Blizzard plans to add to WoW this year.
      Holly Longdale today teased an upcoming PvE-oriented event that will soon be revealed to us. Holly might be talking about the "Timerunning Pandamonium," expected in Patch 10.2.7.
      (Source)
      Greetings Citizens of Azeroth,
      It’s been great seeing so many players taking the plunge into Plunderstorm and we’ve loved seeing all of the stories and feedback as this experimental event evolves. It will be exciting to see some of the community content creators going head-to-head as duos during the Plunderstorm Creator Royale on March 30!  This isn’t the end of the things we want to try in World of Warcraft, however, and we have more in store we can’t wait to show you.
      Dragonflight Season 4 is in route as testing begins on the PTR and we’ll have more news to share soon™ on the next experiment we have up our sleeves. We hope those of you who are looking for PvE focused content will enjoy what we’re planning, all while we continue to press forward on development of our next expansion for World of Warcraft— The War Within.
      We can’t wait to share with you all the many things the team has been hard at work on.
      With gratitude and excitement for what we’ll do together next,
      Holly Longdale
