Legendary question

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, 

I just got Kiljaeden trinket  as my third legendary and I am questionning which legendary to use.

Legendaries i have: Perseverance (helm), Seal of necrofantasia, Kiljaeden trinket

Trinket i have: CoF 875, Memento 865, Arcano crystal 860, Claw of the scorpid 900, kiljaeden 940

 

When I sim my DK with new trinket, the CoF 875 and the 900 ring Ii get around 10k more dps (~593k single raid target) whereas when i sim my character with necrofantasia + CoF + claw of scorpid 900, i get around 582-583k.

 

What i'm thinking is that Kiljaeden might be better in M+ whereas Necrofantasia might be better in Raids, but i'm really not sure ... any help is greatly appreciated ;)

 

also, if i should use Necrofantasia, is CoF 875 + claw of the scorpid 900 the "ideal" trinket combo i could use with the trinkets i have in my posession ?

 

here is my Armory: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/sargeras/Àllahakbar/advanced

 

Thank you very much for any insight!

I woudl use helmet +ring in all cases. Dks already have plenty of aoe, plus breath on trash does tons of damage.

@NickV You are right about M+, you will find the 'burst' nature of the trinket legendary favours short fights and AoE.

Noticeable especially because ring gives sustainability on extended BoS which most likely never reaches it's potential length apart from high end (10 - 15+) boss fights. For overall dps it will fall short against the trinket.

Regarding trinkets, the reason Claw is ranking high is due to the high base +STR.

I would go Claw + Legendary (in place of ring, keep the helm on) for M+ and CoF + Claw for raid.

Certainly I agree with Drtain and sticking with one setup gives you the benefit of learning and tightening your rotation to be more consistent but you may want to give it a try in M+ where the stakes are lower.

@Browed Maybe this doesn't apply to everyone, and is maybe just the way my groups end up going. But the reason i said ring is because I have the ring. And how my groups plays is around breath. (mainly only applicable to like 15+ which is all i really do anymore) The best example I can think of is on Court of stars Before the first boss, we pull both groups of mobs (regardless of affixes) and I start using breath and the pack normally dies before breath ends, but our healer will be in position to pull the boss so that I can breath both a pack of mobs and transition it into a boss. This works in many dungeons besides CoS but CoS in my opinion is probably the best example.

      Hello everyone,
      Last patch gave us 40% and 10% damage increase on ray of frost and glacial spike
      Does anyone know of these changes make them relevant ?
      Should frost mage play with these or one of these now ?

      The way to enhance Frost Death Knight leveling and then update it in the very start and up into the greatest levels in brief phrases? Opt for the very best gift on every level you obtain so as to find out and use best. Look at these Frost Death Knight abilities and highlight the ones that you have to have on your desk whilst trimming the enthusiast.
      Level 56 - Cold Heart. Level 57 - Horn of Winter, Runic Attenuation. Level 58 - pick one of 3 because they have exactly the identical part in leveling: Passing's Reach, Asphyxiate, Blinding Sleet. Level 60 - Frozen Pulse, Froscythe. Level 75 - Wraith Walk. Level 90 - Frostwyrm's Fury, Gathering Storm. Level 100 - Breath of Sindragosa. You are welcome to add some corrections!

      I usually sim my characters to get the best possible results. I enjoy the process quite a lot and since I reached 120, I wanted to find out the best build of the spec. (Note, I didn't want to find out what to play, but rather how my own build fares in comarison.) I rarely mind a 1-2% difference. If it goes above 2%, I really mind a change. What this thread is about is mainly to bring something in the attention of those who help making the class guides, especially the talent choices. To my surprise, I was awed to find out that certain talents outperform previous "Standard" choices in the endgame, probably due to the stat squish.

      The Frost go-to build (top dps) would probably be along the lines of <Icy Talons / Cold Heart - Runic Attenuation - Frozen Pulse - Gathering Storm - Breath of Sindragosa>. What I found out primarily was that after the removal of legendaries, Cold Heart severely underperforms at most given situations resulting in a major dps drop due to the low mastery. Gathering Storm also suffers from the same problem and most of the times, Frostwyrm's Fury is better overall. The biggest surprise of them all, however, was that Inexorable Assault overperforms quite a lot, and is the first reason why I made the topic. I then started simming with the above in mind and I came across a build that some would not consider on par with top dog builds around the meta, which is the use of Horn of Winter which overperforms both its other two options when using the Breath build. Talent Sim can be seen here. Another intresting thing, which I loved, was that the 2nd best build uses Obliteration as a lvl 100 talent and no other build surpassed it (Other than the first one, obviously). So, I encourage frost players out there to give their other, less common talents a try. To the class guide author(s), I believe that the two "underdog" talents will earn their spot in the class guides.

      Thank you for your time reading this.

      I'm making a survival build for guardian druid for dungeons, lfr and a bit of battleground. I have Soul of the Archdruid and Dual Determination. Now I got Cinidaria, the Symbiote. Should I choose it over my existing two?
