Weapon choices for ret

[Deleted]

Was just curious on weapon choice for Ret pally, Got Bo-Ris, Horror in the Night normal, but also got the Sha touched axe normal with 500 str gem, Been trying to push the numbers but havent been able to get a solid result that leans to one side of another

Not sure if serious,really.The amount of higher top end dmg and dps of boris isnt enough to make you realise which is better from those two?

[Deleted]

well besides the higher top end dmg, wasnt to sure cause of having the added 500 str with the gem made the sha touched one better since you get like 300 str extra from it

Weapon Damage >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> str, always.

Ok that clears up alot, been slowly going from prot to ret due to fact raid team needs it

Now off topic question: As far as normal ToT trinkets i got spark of zandalar, and hit and exp cap, what would be another worth while trinket to even try for

Fabled Feather off Ji-Kun is BIS

Get ahold of this beast if you can. Will be the best trinket unless the 5.4 changes really screw it over (which it looks like it might make it less desirable)

Bo-Ris is my fav for BiS weapon. Gives such a Mastery increase that you won't find the rest of the tier.
Feather is awesome if you can min-max your ES to use it at 10 stacks. If you can frequently do this you will see your ES be 2-3 times the power it currently is.
Along with Spark the trinket from Primordius is another BiS option. It gives you a little more sustained damage and tends to proc at the pull alot better than Spark does. I've been switching back and forth between Spark and Primo's trinket depending on the fight.
