Double Post!

Roid.

Try to run t8 helm/legs. It's probably the best if you're guild isn't doing ulduar anymore to get shoulders. Get the t9 chest. Save up the cash and get yourself some bejeweled wizard bracers so you can get a trinket other than the living flame.

You're low on crit which sucks horribly cause you're gear was me about a month ago.

Get a different cloak.

You'll find that if you can do the following you might be low on hit, but you're gonna net yourself some more crit and spell power most likely.

Check out my post on the make me a better moonchicken thread I go a little more in depth on that.

Also check out my armory, barring one of my trinkets, my off hand and a few other pieces of gear I'm near BiS.

Edit: Forgot to gloat about me being at 2874 spell power self buffed :D

Also, on my last run the ******* reign of the unliving dropped and I was on my god damn dk. But, I did get the axe off anub so my dk now has ilvl 245/232 weapons and ilvl 174/200 trinkets! God I'm pro!

Gz Galen, looks like it would have been more if RNG was kinder to your shreds ;) I notice that you didn't have to switch...

Well you can start by looking at the gem list and seeing whether the 20agi gem is rated higher than the 20 arpen gem by itself.

But then for accurate optimization, you'll want to add an arpen gemming template. Go to Tools -> Edit Gemming Templates, make sure epic gems are enabled, then click the Add button to get a blank template -- and then just add 20 arpen gems in every one of the little squares it gives you (minus the meta, where you should put the standard 21agi/3%crit).


Thanks for the advice, I done this but it is still loving Agi even when using my old gear that was nearing soft cap.

ToC doesn't drop leather.

At least when I am there.

I feel your pain, RNG hates us and likes to play mind games by dropping the things we want on our druids when we tag along on an alt

I should screen shot the dps meters from 25 man twins last night. Remember we run half alts/mains in 25 man toc reg. 8 people we're between 10,000 dps and 9000 dps. It was awesome.

Yeah, RNG hates me. Took me weeks to get my gloves, and only then cause a guy gave them to me cause he wasn't going to break his 4pcT8 OPruptureprocset. I still haven't seen the neckpiece and have only seen the ring once and lost the roll. Never seen the waist either come to think of it.

We typically single tank Twins now and yeah I got lucky and didn't have to switch, all the special abilities just lined up. Not to mention it wasn't a very long fight :P

It's ok though, I had to wait until the tank was at 100k threat and get Hand of Salv'd just to put that up. I was threat capped with the two tanks all night due to the fact it was 75% guild, 25% bunch of friends from another guild. I waited until 50k threat on the first beasts boss and still had to back up and sit for awhile before starting my dps rotation up again. Meh.

Anyway, I picked up the Duskstalker shoulders and switched my Tier pieces around to have head/chest as my 2pT9. Really still waiting on a new ring(60-80dps increase) and neckpiece(15 dps increase).

We're starting to run Heroic ToC10 so that should help with the gear situation....RNG willing. I don't think I've ever rolled over a 50 on anything that actually matters...ever. :P

On a side note, I should have had my character pane open so you could see my sad gear.

Also, we're catching up to the rogue thread. :P

New UI

Arex have you thought about making a guide to make your UI look like that for other Boomkins? That is absolutely amazing and clean looking. Or just use paint or photo shot to make arrows at certain parts to say what addons that is?

Addons I use are as follows.

Pitbull - Unit Frames
Dominos - Bar Frames
SexyMap - Map Mod
Satrina Buffs - Buff Mod
Recount - Measures my epeen for me
Prat - Chat Mod
MSBT - Scrolling Combat Text
DBM - self explanatory
SquawkandAwe - Tracks cooldowns, eclipse, dots and all other things moonkin
Wiseeclipse - Highly useful for going from lunar to solar.
Omen - Obvious
Btex - This is what gives me the bar across the bottom.
Grid - raid frames
ButtonFacade Serenity - For my buttons, gives them that rounded box and white outline.

The most useful addon I have in terms of putting my UI together is definately BTex. They have a nifty little check box that will put up a grid on your screen allowing you to move your addons around and line them up correctly.

Btex also lets me put that black to white gradient frame up on the bottom as well.

All in all my UI isn't too terribly over complicated its a lot of basic mods that I've just played around with.

I got new legs.

Don't want to break my tank 4 piece though. It is the 232 tier set though.

Opinions.

Maybe use them for your kitty set, the four piece bonus is nice even if it is ilvl 232 and those new legs are 245.

Just looking at what you have equipped, did you forget to swap out your PVP trink after the champs?

Fear my new poking stick

Just wish it was a little more flashy, I much preferred the ulduar weapons for that reason >.<

Tanked 10 ToC and Ony last night

Oneshotted everything

I was self-conscious about my damage-taking so asked healers afterward how easy/hard it was to keep me up (was holy priest disc priest and tree I think)...all three said they were pretty much only using instants, wasn't even remotely difficult.

Finally I'm a Champion of the Frozen Wastes.

On a quasi-related, but not overly-related note: no one ever wants to go back and do old content; till the alts start showing up. But that's fine, I could use a break, I'm not a huge fan of ToC. I'd rather raid Ulduar, its a lot more enjoyable IMO.

Here's for hoping Icecrown is an epic raiding experience.

Nice.

If I wasn't the GM of my guild I would do the same.

Forgot, guild downed ToGC Faction Champs this week.

Apparently since I wasn't there the leather spell power chest went to off set :(

Well, it just sucks when something goes off spec to people who aren't gonna use it (especially ilvl 258 items), and then I go... **** my life.
