Preliminary 3.1.2 Raiding Specs
Here is a list of preliminary 3.1.2 Raiding Specs. Most of this is courtesy Zakalwe on EJ, via the simcraft thread. Simulationcraft on post-3.1 specs - Elitist Jerks Remember that simcraft is a simulation. It's meant to theorize the best possible outcome for each spec in a stand and fight raiding scenario. Simcraft is often correct in its projections, at least in terms of top dps specs. One more very important and quick note. Lifetap glyph. Please, realize that if you are using a spec that uses the lifetap glyph, THIS DOES NOT MEAN YOU SHOULD BE LIFETAPPING EVERY 20 SECONDS. That is, and to be honest, always has been completely incorrect. You should only be lifetapping when you need mana. Ideally what this means is that you'd be able to predict exactly how many lifetaps you needed over the course of a fight in order to end the fight as close to OOM as possible. Then, you'd spread those lifetaps out evenly over the fight. 53/1/17 http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?warl...0&version=9767 Pet: Succubus Glyphs -Haunt -Life tap -Curse of Agony Rotation: Open up with SB and haunt if precasting is possible. If not (or after sb/haunt), use corruption, then UA, then Curse of Agony. SB as filler, refreshing dots as needed. Refresh haunt as soon as the cooldown is up, but do not cancel a previous spell cast. Below 25%, drain soul replaces shadowbolt as filler. 0/13/58 http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?warl...31051335230351 Pet: Imp Glyphs -Conflag -Immolate -Incinerate Rotation: Curse of Doom, Immolate, Conflag, Chaos bolt, then Incinerate. Conflag every time the cooldown is up, and follow it with your fillers, prioritizing Immolate > Chaos Bolt > Incinerate. Note that this spec provides replenishment to the raid. Another variation of this spec is 3/13/55. The rotation is the same. http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?warl...31051035030351 More to come. |

Re: Preliminary 3.1.2 Raiding Specs
You say to conflag on every Cooldown, but with the glyph change, that is only 1 time during your immolate now, and it has to hit the last 5 sec. of it. Or did they decide to leave the glyph alone? Or was testing done with the old glyph? meaning this data is invalid? Just curious because destruction has always been my favorite tree. |

The glyph on the PTR right now is the same as live. |

Would be fun if Fallen starts saying some really stupid things, and see how many people follow... its not Fallen's fault if people don't think for themselves before following an advice. There was a lot of confusion over at EJ since people forgot how the use of the Life Tap glyph came about, and then were wondering why it wasn't used in the replenishment destro spec (you guess why, because you barely need to life tap with that spec... ). Was fun to read :D |

Re: Preliminary 3.1.2 Raiding Specs
Thank you Fallen. A few threads ago you posted how unfriendly Uldar was to pets , and I must say you hit the nail on the head. I was only able to keep my FG up in 3 fights or so. I had to change to an imp spec. I do like that Destro is getting some attention. |

If that is the case, then the Specs are not truely valid comparisons of what to expect in the 3.1.2 release, correct? That only is a significant DPS change if executed properly in a destruciton rotation. Do you agree, assuming that the glyph change is coming as stated? |

The glyph not changing is better than the glyph changing. Because the rotation is torturous without Immolate staying up through conflag. |
