So it only took me 5 days, and a bunch of badges later, my 4 slaves all have 4pc T9.

The DPS improvement from gear alone is pretty crazy. (Short fights ftw, But not for the lock)

I still have a few more pieces I want to snag before I start buying up PvP Gear, but with the patch being nearly a week old, I'm very happy with my progress.
congrats man... i bet that lightning bolt dot helps your dps
you mean lava burst dot?
svper better geared than my retired shamans now :P
whats up with lock only doing 2k o.O
Damn! That's crazy!
I am seriously slacking, time to pick up the pace.
unfortuently the 10 lvb dot was a nerf to what the 4 peice originally was. Before the patch i was able to crit for 13-14k easy, now 10k is average and a 12k is "HOLY HELL HIGH CRIT." Makes me mad they nerfed my dps (didn't gain anything great since i was already 5/5 t9 before patch)Quote:

Congratz!
Congrats, t9 is Emblems of Frost or Triumph??
Triumph, T10 is from Frost.Quote:

Take each toon to the target dummy and go nuts with your DPS macros and make sure that Flame Shock isn't falling off, LvB is firing every CD. This will minimize the time your stuck in LB spam. Also make sure your glyphed for LvB not consuming FS. That recount you see in guild chat was just that 1 fight, a very short 30 second fight. That has to do with how much DPS shaman can do, since our DPS is all burst and then once we hit LB spam, it starts to drop to level out over time, shorter time = higher DPS. Thats also why you see my lock so low there, my lock's rotation is rather slow but more consistent over longer times.
Here's some numbers you can look at to see actual raid DPS data. Last night I took Svperwrecked (often my top DPS shaman) to ToC 10. I used my same DPS macro I use when boxing the only difference is I was raid buffed. (Kings, Wisdom, Flask of Frost Wyrm, SP Food buff, Int, etc)
Lord Jaraxus: http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/r...um/damageDone/
I managed 4.4k DPS over the entire fight of 5 minutes 34 seconds. The LJ fight also involves target swapping, and movement, so I wasn't just a turrent blowing up a boss.
Twin Val'kyr: http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/r...?s=1919&e=2134
I pulled 6.3k DPS because this IS a stationary (mostly) blow up the boss fight. Also one of the boss' mechanics is a DPS boost if your able to collect orbs.
DPS is highly situational. You can go look at those reports in depth and see how often I was casting which spells, and what they were landing and criting for. The biggest thing in your DPS is RNG. Random numbers are always going to be random. The best thing you can do is stack spell power / haste once your at your hit rating goal (~80 for heroics, 342 for alliance raids)
its intensivly easy i have to agree i can do the same, but ive been abit stupid i been spending my badges on the wrong items. i could of ahd 4 t9 already instead purchased the lvl245 items from non tier vendors. dang
Note that 3.3 changed this so that LvB will never consume FS, and the glyph was changed to allow the FS DoT to now crit.Quote:

what do you mean? The ilvl245 tier chest piece requires a trophy of the crusade ... isn't it better to give up the set bonus and swap out 2 of the lvl 232 pieces for the lvl 245 you can buy with badges alone?Quote:

Aye thats right, I forgot about the glyph change. My biggest DPS increase came from fine tuning the click macros, and gemming full SP. if you are NEVER going to raid, you only need ~80 hit for heroics. anything past that is wasted and you should swap to SP gems. Look into crafted BoE stuff, the sash of ancient power is pretty tasty.Quote:

What's your latency to the server?Quote:
