Will 2 piece tier 10 make a huge difference in Ret Pallys?

Yes it does, but I *believe* it's only on SoC procs which originate from auto swings. The set bonus is beyond overpowered and I would expect a nerf or change of some sort

Not saying you would, but if this is true and your DS is worth using SOC in 5's (which i doubt) you'd have 6ish chances per cooldown time to get your cooldown refreshed... thats kinda retarded.

Oh we were already using SOC in 5s even without this. Really the burst between SOC and SOR on single target is not that much. Unless I am doing something horribly wrong. I am seeing like 100-200 dps loss on single target switching from SOR to SOC. Keep in mind this is 6 second burst cycle. The longer the fight. The more you lose by using SOC vs SOR on single target. As soon as you add 1 more target there. SOC hits for more.

And in 5s, chances of you hitting multiple targets are high. I mount in "hungering cold" , which puts frost fever (snare) on everyone within 10 yards. Then just cleave cleave.

The only reason not to use SOC is to play a CC game where you catch them off their trinket with triple CC. Repentance, Hungering cold, Hammer of Justice. Then single out 1 target to kill. This is hard to pull off. is something I am currently working on.
