Best spec and gear for end gameFollow

#1 Jan 25 2008 at 4:51 AM Rating: Decent
Just to annoy the heck out of Nocthil...

What's the best gear I should aim for now that I've reached 70 for end game?





Okay not really since this was answered in my other thread but just wanted to spread the excitement. My first 70. You know how that feels. You feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

But I do have to start looking and working for gear now (and make my last 50g or so, so I can get my mount training... no epic flyer yet). Oh the joys...

Get a faster OH. It hurts me.

Anyways...Congrats! Welcome to endgame you poor poor *******. Now the real addiction starts. I wish you luck on getting the assassination set, took me over 20 tries for both the hands and shoulders, 30 tries to get the MH sword from Mech and I never once have seen the chest piece. I got the mask my first run but never wore it cause the mask I'm still wearing was better.

Oh, you can also spec out of Deflection and Riposte nowandput those in useful places.

Yeah I'm working on it. Was going to run Mana Tombs yesterday but couldn't. Now that I have most of the weekend to play and stuff, I'm hoping to run more things. Aim for weapons first? That seems to make you sad the most lol.

Thanks! Yeah, I have to still quest and grind a bit. I'm a bit shy of being able to train for my 'normal' flyer.

Well, you OH weapon needs to be faster, and if you have time this weekend, some PvP might pay off a lot...the OH is only 9k honor.

A faster OH=more Sword Procs, more Combat Potency Procs, and more poison procs. But besides that, just go wherever you can get a group for that has rogue gear.

Edit: And dear god please socket your gear.

I normally socket stuff right away. Like RIGHT away. Just go the AH and buy a few 50s gems to toss in there.

Yeah I may do that for the time being until I can get the good stuff. Right now I'm still just trying to save up for my flyer... and I'm not even a spender!

I don't think that 1.5g is gonna make or break you on getting your flyer...

Stop quoting me...I'm getting paranoid. Feels like I'm being followed.

haha ... sorry habit.

Yeah I was talking about waiting to buy the "good" gems until later. Especially if I'm going to replace my gear with better stuff

Oh, personally I wouldn't put the rare gems into blues. Wait till you get epics. just not worth the money, 50g+ each on my server. The cute little uncommon gems go for like 50s each though and it really isn't that big of a difference.
#13 Jan 25 2008 at 7:16 AM Rating: Good
So pretty much just get any of the gems that would give +hit, +crit, etc?

Check my armory and you will see that I am a big fan of the +4 hit/+4 Agi so for you the 3 hit/3agi.

There are certain blue it is well worth it to put blue quality gems into.

I posted an edited pre-kara gear list a few days ago and I would say anything on that list is well worth socketing with the best gems you can afford.

Mainly because you could run Kara 2-3 times and never get a drop you need to replace one of those blues.

Plus, if you socket with higher quality gems you'll be fine to do Gruul's as well as Kara.

Putting lower quality gems into them means you'll probably want a couple drops from Kara before trying to DPS on Gruul.

And Nocturnal, for god's sake PLEASE go get the S1 swords. They are better than anything you will get out of any instance until late in SSC.

Is the Armory messed up or do you have a 2.10 in your MH and a 2.60 in your OH, or do I have to contrive a way to find out who/where you are and torture you to death?

Oh, and will you hate me if I tell you to get the S1 OH again? Well? Will ya? ;)

Edit: *cry* Still no gems. Don't make me find someone on your server to whoop you for me!

Yeah it's messed up because it should be the other way around.

And go ahead... say it... I think I'm up to about 1800 hp so far with BGs... woo! lol

I get bored doing BGs, especially when everytime I'm on, we lose. It just sucks.. ya know?

I've been trying to do the BG daily, and can't because we never win. Irritating.

Being in the Bloodlust battle group on Alliance side means we get our **** rolled all the time. Our solution? Create premade groups and only stick in a BG where we face a PUG. That way you usually win. Oh and we also only do EotS and AB because WSG doesn't yield enough honor and AV is a loss every time. No reason spending 30 mins for 30 honor.
#20 Jan 28 2008 at 5:50 AM Rating: Good
Yeah I was thinking about trying to find a premade... but it seems that most of the ones on my server are the ones that are made to lose on purpose.

Try joining a channel like /join pvppremade

Not sure if it's a player created channel on my server or a universal channel but it is of great use.

Also just advertise that your looking for a premade at the same time you spam a message in trade about opening peoples lock boxes. You make a little cash, people start recognizing your name, and you get into a premade.

One message I use is as follows:

"Noct's Locks. I'll pop your box like it was the very first time. Romantically located at the Stormwind Fountain."

I get a lot of hate whispers, a lot of love whispers and about 10 gold in as many minutes while waiting for arena que/looking for premade/waiting for summon/just being bored and having nothing better to do.

Haha that's funny. Very clever.

While we're at it, could you guys possibly link the s1 weapons available? I tried looking for them but I'm stupid and can't find them.

Hi I'm Aresella... and I'm a noob.

Good God, how did you get to 70 without getting any quest rewards?

I had better than those stats at 60. Smiley: frown

Get season 1 swords at least. It takes a day or two.

I get the feeling that the swords aren't getting upgraded and the slots aren't being gemmed just to spite me.
