Best Slot to give up Dam for Stam
After getting my flying epic mount I have been working on gearing up. I was heavy into +stam since I am Demo and really focused on it when SL was 30%, but now I am raiding more(kara and heroics) and need to buff +dam but I still want to keep my Hp's >= 9000(puts me in the 10K range with fort/buffs) and gives me breathing room if I'm a little late with soulshatter or get garroted, or holy fired, etc). I wondering what equipment slots would be the best trade off for stamina. I'm thinking ring since I can get +46 stam rings and I dont think rings give too much +dam when compared to other slots (I would still go with +dam enchant tho) I think I would need one other slot as well but not sure where to give up the +dam at. Definitely not going to give up Head or pants too much potenital +dam there with the new engineering gogs and battlecast pants has good mix of both. So what do you think? Boots, Wrists, Gloves? |

Re: Best Slot to give up Dam for Stam
Hm you could get battlecast crafted for good stamina and decent +damage ? at least the pants (you might want a meta gemmed helm) |

Re: Best Slot to give up Dam for Stam
Honestly, 9000 unbuffed HP if you're raiding is definitely not needed. But if you spec demo this isn't too hard. Battlecast will help a lot, as well maybe the Netherweave Belt and Gloves. Blackheart in Shadow Labs drops a good wand with 16 stamina I believe. Start running Heroics and go for Orb of the Soul Eater, and offhand with 18 stamina and 51 shadow damage. There are also plenty of trinkets with damage/stamina on them. |

Re: Best Slot to give up Dam for Stam
Thanks for the input. I lost a lot of stam when I upgrade from bringer of death to Blade of wizardry(-33 Stam). In addtion I will replace my helm when the patch hits (will be using the engineer Holo-Gogs with the red PVP gem + glyph + mystical SD - nearly 100dam, but that will break up my old Pvp Set (-20stam set bonus and -8 stam vs current helm). Plus a few other upgrades that will cost me stam so I'm taking like an -80 stam hit within a few weeks. I think I came up with a solution and replaced some crappy yellow gems with +sta gems ignoring socket bonuses and am getting a couple +stam enchants (chest/boots) that will probably keep me right around 9K. |

Re: Best Slot to give up Dam for Stam
An easy slot I gave up was offhand. For PVP I change out my offhand with a +45 stam item. |

Re: Best Slot to give up Dam for Stam
Here is the gear I used to use, some of it has ofc changed from doing arenas etc - but it is a good base of gear which is not hard to get. Not saying this stuff is the best - just a guide. http://ctprofiles.net/5289642 |
