Fist waving Gear.

[Deleted]

hello ladies

was woundering if there are any BIS gear list regarding fist weaving outhere ?

I'm sure there is somewhere, but I haven't seen a definitive one myself. Generally the stat weights are about the same with a couple differences. Spirit doesn't factor in at all unless you're using CihEx(which IMO is pointless). T18 4pc becomes completely useless(well, almost completely useless, it doesn't increase DPS anyways). The general idea is Multi>Haste>=Crit>Vers. Mastery is still totally useless.

Here's my personal list. All of this is obtained before Mannoroth except for the MH which is nice:

MH: Gavel of the Eredar
OH: Gibbering Madness
Head: Hood of Unknowable Secrets
Neck: Choker of Forbidden Indulgence
Shoulders: Blood-Tanned Pauldrons
Back: Cloak of Hideous Unity
Chest: Tunic of the Soulbinder
Wrists: Bloodcult Bracers
Hands: Fistwraps of the Hurricane's Eye
Belt: Flayed Demonskin Belt
Legs: Legwraps of the Hurricane's Eye
Feet: Jungle Assassin's Footpads
Ring 1: Etheralus, the Eternal Reward
Ring 2: Seal of the Traitorous Councilor
Trinket 1: Intuition's Gift
Trinket 2: Blackiron Micro Crucible
Trinket 3: Iron Reaver Piston

Not sure if Iron Reaver Piston will beat Micro Crucible once the upgrades happen which is really the only reason I included it. You can also change some of the Multi/Haste pieces out for their Multi/Crit counterparts in a few cases. That is if you prefer Crit.

I should also note that according to the math, a sword should beat out pretty much anything else of equal item level because it attacks faster and procs Tiger Strikes more often. However, with the varying item levels in this tier you're probably better off with the highest item level weapon you can find for the increased spellpower.

I think you are supposed to wave with an open hand, not fists.

Just curious, why would you want a fistweaving set? Questing?

[Nokcihc]

I actually use my fistweaving set quite often. Most of the time I can fistweave all of our easy farm content(I could probably get away with it on all Mythic bosses up to Gorefiend except maybe Council) and then there are often fights where I spend half the fight fistweaving and half the fight actually healing(like Iskar or Kilrogg) where I would use this set.

Plus, I just like competing with Antoine on the MW DPS ranks even though he usually crushes me.

Sorry not to contribute anything, but fist 'waving' made me crack up for some reason. :P

You want to be using 2set 2set grabbing the chest and shoulders from BrF (once valor upgrades are out this may change)
And if you are building a set for highest possible damage you want to go for Mirror of the Blademaster trinket.

Not quite; you're missing 2pc from last tier (Surging Mist gives 2 chi instead of 1 = huge DPS gain). See Antoine's list (Crane Central link above); at this point he's surpassed my expertise on fist "waving", I think. He just pokes me now and then for difficult math :P

True, if you can get the 2pc from BRF then it's better than having 3 off pieces, but as far as HFC goes that's about the best you're going to get. I wouldn't say it's worth it to go back to BRF for Heroic gear and Mythic can still be difficult if you haven't done it yet.
