60/40 now 40/60?Follow

I've noticed something from my last couple of WWS reports. My dmg distribution of white vs yellow has flipped as I've geared up.

My white dmg now makes up roughly 40% of my total dmg. At first I equated this to my somewhat low hit rating (153 plus percision) then it dawned on me that extra hit would just fuel more HS for me since I already have to dump rage quite often.

I've considered it may be from my guild's new theory on trash mobs. We set pulls up so we can basically warrior aoe down everything. (we have a fairly large number of fury warriors now, I used to feel special lol) Anyways we normaly set it up like so


_____________________Tank___________________________
____________________Mob #2__________________________
________Tank Mob #3___DPS___Mob #1 Tank_____________


We just rotate our bodies so our SS hits mobs 1 and 2 then again for 2 and 3 and letting WW take presidence over BT. Anyways I thought this might be what is contributing to my swap of white to yellow dmg figures but can this really make up a 20% swap?

Anyone else noticing anything similar in their reports?

I don't think it's unusual at all. I observed the same trend when comparing void reaver WWS reports, though usually WW only comprised 10-15% of yellow damage. Yours is higher because of the priority shift of WW over BT on trash fights. On boss fights, I'm confident that your BT damage > WW damage. Also, yellow damage should presumably overtake white damage with better gear since BT damage increases with AP more greatly than white damage does.

Well also considering my WW hits at least 3 targets on trash. Forgot to mention that when mob 1 goes down that tank goes and grabs a CC'd mob and drops it into the rotation.

This really sped up our trash clear time in SSC. Now if we could just get our geared raiders on more consistantly instead of having to let undergeared people in to fill out the raid.

On a positive off topic note I got my last vortex last night and am now the proud owner of Dragonstrike.

grats, ya lucky *******.

out of curiosity, where do you usually end up on the WWS report on trash fights and boss kills?

Almost always first unless I get over zealous and die early due to not keeping a close enough watch on my threat.

We have another fury warrior that out gears me but his spec isn't optimal. Next closest is a combat sword rogue.
