one hand specialization on 2.3Follow

#1 Oct 13 2007 at 3:18 AM Rating: Good
now as prot pala and when the upcoming 2.3 patch is coming. i've always questioned one hand spec talent. some say it ingreese the dmg on SoR but i cant recall i've seen that really. And on some threads i can see ppl wanna remove reckoning etc.
But what about 1hand spec then?
am i totally out on a bike now and have missed something important about that talent or could this be worth thinking more on now when there is alot of new talents to get as prot?

Increases all damage you deal when a one-handed melee weapon is equipped by 5%.


I'd say more than just some, but the talent itself says that, though obviously not specifically.

Now, are you saying when this patch goes live to remove 1hand spec instead of Reckoning? Or to make sure you keep it? o.O

So you're unsure you're going to keep an ability which increases all your damage by 5% and thus the threat generated by all your holy damage by 9.5%?

Let me venture an educated guess, if 10% more threat generation is something you want to scoff at, your gear has probably too much spell damage and, conversely, quite possibly not enough stamina and mitigation.

This sounds like a bastardized version of what I was talking about, yet he gets more replies because he can't speak English. Where's the justice???

reckoning is a great lvlin talent but 1 hand spec will be a better talent at l8r lvls for the extra dmg and added threat caused. which means no 1 shot clothies.

The Reckoning which used to 1-shot clothies has been gone since patch 2.0...

what i ment was as a tank and not enough threat means your clothie mage/preist/lock could be one shot dead

well, 1h spec used to be 10%, and did increase SoR damage(not judgment however). since i quit, and after it got nerfed/buffed to 5% to all damage, i dunno what's going on with it these days.

Alright, math time.

Let's say SoR does 100 damage each time you swing before the 5% increase.
With Righteous Fury up, it registers as 190 threat.

Now you get the 5% increase.
SoR now does 105 damage each time you swing.
With Righteous Fury up, it registers as 105*1.90 = 199.5 threat

HOWEVER Alastair, I'm sorry to say thats a flat increase, not a percentage increase.

199.5
----- = 5% increase to threat.
190
