In that specific situation I'd lean to Class Trinket + Chipped Soul Prism in pretty much all situations.

I figured as much (that's what I have equipped now), just wanted to confirm.

The BoA trinket finally dropped for me today, so I was just excited to have new shiny and was hoping there was some justification for using it - however, between the guide and my own considerations I arrive at the same conclusion as you.

Would it be safe to say then, that if gear catches up to where haste/crit are at acceptable levels sans the Chipped Soul Prism, I'd replace the prism with Gronntooth/EDH (if I got one).

I'd say no, sticking with Class Trinket even in its worst form is always a good choice and a titanforged CSP that high is just too strong. In terms of Legion levelling however you'll definitely get some use out of that Heirloom instead of the class trinket at least!

I have some questions relative to Furious Slash and more precisely timing of abilities.

When we're evaluating the priority list mid battle, is there some concession for considering what's coming ahead or do you suggest making the decision on what skill to use exactly in that moment (based on established priority)?  I find myself with these little pockets of time when Bloodthirst is about to come off cooldown, raging blow is on CD, I can't rampage due to insufficient rage and I try to sneak in a furious slash, but this pushes out my next bloodthirst a little bit. Is it better to wait and not sneak in abilities like that to keep interval at which BT is cast somewhat consistent (obviously this will be displaced by Rampage caused Enrages, since we're not clipping Enrage with BT crits)?

Do you ever just sit and wait for BT to come off CD and not try to squeeze in a FS? The added crit % to BT that FS provides seems really valuable. How would you evaluate when to use FS other than the condition that nothing else is available?

I perform well as Fury, but I feel like this is a point where I'm dropping off damage.

Following the priority is always valuable, but burning up a fractional GCD for nothing is also unfavourable, so adding in a Furious Slash is worthwhile in that situation. If you literally cannot cast anything in that GCD (unless we're talking 0.1-0.5 of a second) casting it and continuing down the line will provide more than waiting.

The guide says that the opening rotation should be: Charge > Dragon Roar > Avatar > (Bloodbath if taken) > Battle Cry > Bloodthirst (to enrage).

 

But I'm wondering if it isn't better to wait with the cooldowns until you have around 65 rage and then use Dragon Roar > Avatar and Battle Cry (macrod together) to benefit even more from the ensured enrage from Rampage. I have tried to compare these two different ways countless times on a single target Raiding Dummy and I'm always getting between 7-10K extra damage out up.

 

The exact rotation would look something like this: Charge > Bloodthirst > Raging Blow > Furious Slash > Blood thirst > Dragon Roar > Rampage > Avatar+Battlecry (macrod together) you can even hold this macro until the global cooldown is almost over to get that extra .5 sec > Raging Blow and so on.

 

Would be great to hear your thoughts on this.

The reason for doing it on the opener is to generate Enrage immediately from the guaranteed Bloodthirst crit via Battle Cry, and then follow it with a Rampage which should be achievable amounts of Rage by the time the first falls off. The goal is to have Enrage up as early and as frequently as possible as opposed to having higher burst through 100% Crit Rampage.

Hi there,

Me again, sorry! lol but I came up with another question.

What is the reasoning for prioritizing WB procs over Raging Blow in the single target DPS priority? Per the tooltips in-game, even with the 200% damage increase RB still does more damage than WB.

The only thing I'd make an argument for is Teir 4. I found that Furious Charge isn't as bad as originally thought. Often enough when using charge in a Boss encounter, it's because you were knocked back or hit by something. Maybe you make a choice to charge through fire or something along those lines. The boost in the healing effect directly after a charge actually supplements those situations nicely. Just my opinion.

I have some qualms with the opening rotation stated on this page. I know over the course of a 5+ minute boss fight the dps increase would be negligible, but I see no reason to Dragon Roar before popping Avatar. Battle Cry doesn't matter as much because Dragon Roar crits all the time anyway, but you can still benefit from Avatar's 20% damage increase when you Roar. I have tested this many times and even with a macro that pops all your cooldowns at once instantly (Blood Fury before Dragon Roar as well if you're an orc), Dragon Roar always benefits from being used -after- Avatar in the opening sequence.

That is a list of the order, not the amount of traits required to acquire. The number is just there to indicate that, though sorry for the confusion!

Hello,

I have question about haste and crit breakpoints:

1. Why haste cap is 18%. Guide  states that haste doesn't affect RB gcd, but tooltip says it cast is 2 sec, so that suggests haste cap 33.3% which would drop cast to 1.5 sec to line up with gcd. If we take enrage window into consideration we need only 12.5% haste to have 3 gcd's in 4sec enrage and 50% to have 4, so it doesn't match 18% either.

2. Same question about crit. FS increases BT crit chance by 15% per application, so cap like (100 - k*15)%, where k is amount of FS applications would make sense. Guide states that mastery overtakes crit at 30%, but since both mastery and crit scales dmg multipicatively, that suggests mastery value should be some kind of linear function of crit value which determines actual crit cap.

 

In advance thanks for answers.

Remember you also need to account for the GCD to tick out on the ability that actually triggers Enrage. The actual had breakpoint is 16% so your GCD is roughly 1.3 seconds (meaning 1 at 1.3, 2 at 2.6 and 3 at 3.9) but I have erred on the higher side to account for latency and player error, hense the 18%.

For Crit there is a synergistic nature between Crit and Mastery, they aren't strictly linear really. You need a stock amount of Crit to fuel your Enrage to sustain enough Rage to Rampage in between casts, especially without Carnage. Mastery's value requires that to get the full effect out of the bonus damage, given that they are intrinsically linked due to the Enrage requirement.

Unless it's hotfixex I'd rather recommend not going on the mentioned fury artefact path to Odyn's Champion . It barely procs, got only 3 procs in 10 minutes of testing on dummy. 

Lack of procs doesn't make it the weaker option, given that alternate goldens (rage has equal proc chance, juggernaut is execute exclusive) have less impact. This path grabs your most important non-gold traits and leads into Helya's Wrath perfectly, alongside opening up other gold paths quicker.

An armoury link would most likely be the best starting point here. It can either eliminate/confirm gear as a possible cause. Also any footage/log of yourself in a dungeon would be hugely helpful.

http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/malganis/Lòbo/simple. That isn't updated, I dont know if the armory is bugged or needs a update. I'm actually sitting at 28% crit and 14% haste. I don't know how to do the simcraft logs.

It's largely dependant on those you're competing against. Fury is exceptional at burst AoE and sustained cleave, but not enough that the real powerhouses (Windwalker/Demon Hunter) won't push you down in extended trash. It's also fairly dependant on some traits, and moreover part of the power in Fury ends in the Execute phase, which dungeons rarely allow you to capitalise on.

      Here's a really cool possibility for the War Within, as a very subtle and mildly mysterious comment from Executive Producer and Vice President for WoW, Holly Longdale, may be hinting at our Warband characters getting a lot more involved in our travels! 
      First spotted by UlthansWrath, Longdale came up to Taliesin & Evitel at the recent London War Within Alpha press event and had a short chat about the Warband screen, when she casually said "wouldn't it be cool if those were the characters you took as your followers in your Follower Dungeons?" After the obvious confirmation from Taliesin and Evitel that, yes, yes it would be cool, she just said "hm" and that was the end of the conversation.
      Obviously this isn't any sort of official confirmation, but considering this is a really awesome idea, it seems likely Blizzard are at the very least discussing it, if not already working on it.

      The Warband system is already great, and this would add a lot to it for players that choose to go solo into dungeons, as it would give them even more motivation to get some great characters in their Warband - even if it was just a cosmetic option.
      So, what do you think, will we be seeing this feature when the War Within launches?

      Affliction is getting plenty of changes today as well, with Blizzard detailing the reasoning behind certain choices.
      Affliction (Source)
      Greetings Warlocks,
      Today, we have various Core and Affliction tree changes hitting the Alpha. We want to take a moment to go a bit more in depth as to what certain changes were made and why. As a refresher, here are the goals for our Core and Afflictions that we posted last week along with some additional goals that we can dig into here.
      Class
      Ensure each capstone is interesting and exciting. Reduce the amount of throughput talents, to free up utility choices. Reduce the number of ranks for talents that don’t warrant multiple ranks. Affliction
      Address the tuning of Malefic Rapture in single-target and multi-target situations. Reduce complexity and the amount of active buttons that contribute to it. Erase the need to choose between a single-target or multi-target profile by adding more adaptability and flexibility. While we cannot go over every change here, we’d like to get a bit more detailed than last week’s update and explain some of the bigger changes coming in this build.
      Class Tree Throughput
      We’re removing a lot of throughput talents from the class tree to allow warlocks to pick up more utility without feeling forced to take mandatory talents to be competitive. These talents aren’t compelling options when placed against utility as they will always be the right answer to have. This allows us to move that power into the specialization trees and tailor throughput-centric talents to be specific to that specialization’s gameplay.
      Malefic Rapture
      In addition to becoming baseline for Affliction, we are introducing new talents that will help Malefic Rapture become the go-to spender for both single-target and multi-target situations. This should also shift Seed of Corruption to being a means to apply Corruption to multiple targets rather than what you spam in dungeons. In addition, we are redesigning Siphon Life to be friendlier to Affliction’s rotation and expect that its new design will make it easier to optimize Malefic Rapture.
      Affliction’s Adaptability
      While we do want Affliction warlocks to have a preferred talent setup for single- versus multi-target situations, we don’t want it to feel like they are powerless if they are in the opposite situation. By focusing on Malefic Rapture being Affliction’s main spender and removing talents that are only valuable in multi-target situations (Soul Flame, Soul Swap, Doom Blossom, etc.), we’re hoping that the Affliction tree feels less punishing to fill out.
      Is This It?
      Not at all. We expect to make changes based on feedback and our own playtesting. We want to get the ball rolling on changes we knew we want to make, so we could start the discussion early on and make adjustments before The War Within launches.
      Thank you all for the continued discussions and we look forward to your feedback!
      And here are the full changes from the development notes:
