Numbers to look for:Follow

#1 Mar 28 2008 at 12:16 PM Rating: Decent
Hi folks,

I've been lurking this here fine place, and depended greatly on all the information contained in the posts and talent builds when I started playing, which was about three months ago.

Now that I hit 70 and am playing around with builds (currently combat-hemo), I'm wondering what are some of the numbers I need to be hitting. Specifically:

For PvE, how much:

To hit
AP

For PvP, how much:

To hit
AP

This is me: http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Stormscale&n=Nats


Also, any gear / build / talent suggestions are most welcome.

Thanks in advance,

For PvE and starting Kara you need over 150 Hit. The higher you can get it the better. AP should be 1300+. Crit should be 20%+

Thats my view, you can easily get those stats with gear before raids, and I'm ignoring PvP gear for this.

PvP: 79 hit
AP: depends on build

PvE: 363 hit
AP: depends gear level

BTW, your current build is awful for DPS.

If you're maces, you should be using this, but ideally you'd get swords and go with this.

Straight up combat is going to be better, though.

Thanks so much for your responses -- that' exactly what I was looking for.

I've respecced to combat for now, and will likely try some other builds that were outlined here over the next few days.

Thanks again!

Not to bring back a post from the dead, but...

I really like the 4 Deadliness combat-hemo build that was suggested, and it's what I've been rolling with. I'm intrigued at the Swords build suggested above. Problem is, those S1 maces are my best weapons. If I were to respec to combat hemo swords (and it does seem that 4 Sword Spec > 8% AP, especially considering my gear), I'd be looking at rolling with the SSO swords until I could farm:

a) Which MH and OH from instances other than S1 swords? (there's too much Vindicator stuff I still need to get, and there's only so many BGs I can take for my own sanity within a given amount of time). Is Blinkstrike a waste of a few days gold farming?

b) I appreciate that I am running a sub-optimal DPS spec by not going 19/42/0, and am glad I was given a mace spec to work with, is there a ballpark % increase in DPS gain I would get from getting equivalent S1 swords and respeccing?

c) (totally unrelated) I've had two Storms cards drop, and because others were wicked cheap at the AH on my server, I now have a full deck. I know my crit sucks, and I've read that the Wrath deck is more useful to someone, like me, whose crit is in the toilet). Thoughts?

And as always, any gear/build comments and criticisms are most welcome. I know you hate, because you care.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

-n

I have these numbers in almost full greens w/out enchants.

I think you may be being slightly too generous here.
