Find a tank/healer that wants to get boosted and tag along. Then add him/her to your friends list and keep in touch often. Support classes are your best friends

Use the Addon 'premade-filter' and you will finally understand that's not your Class it's the fact there are alot of melee and 99% of the grps already got one. premade-filter shows who's in the grp and you won't waste your time on grps who already got 1 or 2 melee-dps.

an interesting thought, if you have crusade relics it's actually better to seperate on use trinkets such as FCM from AW and use them x number of seconds into wings so you use them at higher stacks, with three crusade relics you could miss out on 5 seconds of 50+% damage and haste on your on use
@TheteGaming67 жыл бұрын
You'd need multiple relics with that trait plus the points. But, in that case, yes.

Hey dude. i'm currently 846 and at 24% crit 26% haste 25% mastery. Icy veins says you should have 20-22% haste. do i have to much and should i have more crit chance?
@goran77ish7 жыл бұрын
Speaking of divine hammer, duration is sorter by haste but does it tick faster? In any case haste not reducing CD is huge loss, we need that holy power so I'm skipping it. I used it for normal mythic runs, just to test it and it is crap, even on trash. More HP = more DS. ANd Blade of wrath proc is not rare at all, plus haste reduces CD anyway.
@TheteGaming67 жыл бұрын
It is still ticking faster which really makes me think it's a bug.
@goran77ish7 жыл бұрын
Thete Gaming Yep. If haste influenced CD same as duration that would make more sense and make it worth using for AOE.

Nice vid! Turns ot Zeal sims better for me even on single target so I am switching to that. I dont know if this is the right vid to ask but I am trying to apply for a mythic guild and they are asking for "parses". Is that another word for logs or what are those, I cant really find concrete information.

When you say VB isn't worth taking unless you have "high crit," what kind of number do you think would be acceptable? SimC has VB and BoW virtually the same (within the margin of error) for me at 28% crit. Of course, as you've stated countless times, this is fr Patchwerk sims, which 1) isn't hectic cleave and 2) isn't represented in modern fight design.
@TheteGaming67 жыл бұрын
It's not a specific crit number that determines it as haste, for example, benefits BoW more. So the only way is to sim it and it sounds like you're doing that. If it comes out as roughly the same, go with whichever you prefer for pure single target and take BoW for cleave fights where it will pull ahead.

Hey there, 870 ret pala here (got 2 golden traits, ashes to ashes and echo of the highlord). Im not sure if I'm doing as much dps as I really should. When I open Im bursting over 490k-700k, but after the bursting, Im falling down to around... 240-250k.. Is it bad for a 870 ret paladin or is it decent enough? Im currently having 29% crit and 20% haste. Still have 30% mastery but Im working on to lower it! Thanks!
@TheteGaming67 жыл бұрын
It's hard to say just based on a few measures because so many things affect your dps. The burst seems more than fine but you might be able to sneak your sustained up a bit higher even with your Ashbringer being behind.
@Manjgo7 жыл бұрын
Thete Gaming Thanks for the answer! At the moment I have not been doing any raids, so I havent been using prepots.. I've only been using flask and food in Mythic+. Im also going for 5 holy power most of the time, is that ok to do? Or do I loose dps cause of that? Shall I just go for 3 Holy power and then use it or? From my point of view, Im not wasting any Holy Power, so I kinda have no idea what Im doing wrong... (Im using TV/DS when I have my judgement buff on aswell)
@TheteGaming67 жыл бұрын
Spend when you can during crusade, but you can build beyond 3 outside of it if you have builders available and won't overcap. I explained the rationale behind this somewhere but will make sure it's in the updated Essentials guide for patch 7.1.5 as well.

hi, just started a retri paladin and i was wondering, how much versatility do I need? is it as important as crit of haste?
@TheteGaming67 жыл бұрын
All of the secondary stats are good, but their priority changes around a lot. After you've gained some decent gear, you may well find that versatility actually becomes the highest simming stat because it's not easy to get much of it.
@luchianpirvu8877 жыл бұрын
icy-veins says that versatility and crit should be on the same percentage, so if i have 15% vers i should also have 15% crit? it bugs me a lot since you can find crit gear almost everywhere, but it comes with mastery 80% of the time...

Actually I got 4 trinkets that I'm having a hard time to choose for single target raiding and Myth+ runs. My stats are: *27% crit *20% haste *28% mastery *2% versatility Trinkets: 1. 865 Eye of Command (Kara last boss trink) 2. 865 Memento of Angerboda 3. 870 Horn of Valor 4. 855 Chrono Shard I am currently using Memento with Eye of Command on single target. Haven't done much simming yet (not quite into but I think I have to) can you do a quick review of which pair should be better to use in single target and aoe.
@TheteGaming67 жыл бұрын
+Tuf Horn of Valor and Memento.
@dariominiello99347 жыл бұрын
do you not aoe on helya tentacles on purpose? the range for the aoe is enough to reach all the tentacles most times and can even hit all 3 with wake of ashes if u position well, try that if u didn't know!
@TheteGaming67 жыл бұрын
You have to take into account that it isn't always a DPS increase and you don't kill all tentacles so might be completely wasted DPS. I cleave onto tentacles when it's going to be useful.
@dariominiello99347 жыл бұрын
how is it not a dps increase cleaving 3 tentacles vs single target hitting one? you do kill all the starting tentacles usually as each tentacle is worth 3 % i think so 6 tentacles? some times there's not 3 but 2 that are close enough and of course if you focus too much on positioning you might lose dps, but assuming that a good player is doing it isn't it better to cleave them together rather than focusing one? dunno about +10 or more tough... Now tough i've rewatched carefully the video and i think you guys each picked one tentacle and single targetted it down? Your cleaves are pretty good so why did u do that? Sorry for asking some really niche stuff, it's fine if you don't remember, thanks for the video!

It depends on the state of your Ashbringer. Look at your values: if DS does more than half your TV damage then use it on 2+ targets, otherwise wait for three.

So my guild cleared 6/7H yesterday. I'm 863, but I cant clear 200k dps on any bosses, so I find myself near the bottom of the meter (with another Ret lol). I know my stats are way off, I use pawn, but I'm at the mercy of RNG for what drops I get. I have the legendary hammer of useless helm, which replaced my 875 BIS helm (which was already my best piece of gear so I'll be holding on to it). Stats are about 16% Crit, 17% Haste, 41% Mastery, and 4% Vers. Should I start trying to sacrifice item level for lower gear that has better stat rolls? If so, can I use pawn to help me with that?

Yes, you can use Pawn and get your stat weights from simcraft.

As a relatively new Ret paladin, I made the mistake of using potions of prolonged power instead of potions of the old war. Once I made the switch my dps went up around 7%, which is nothing to laugh at.
