Ret Optimizing Thread

[Eurytos]

LOL whatever I'm done here, I'm not wasting anymore of my time trying to convince you that anything other then what you think may be right...blah blah blah

clearly lies. nice try though.

Also, "in my opinion" and "personally I use" is not very good evidence or advice for people. Bring them facts to back it up. Also, where is your armory link?


















We are getting trolled hard here guys. He might be better than first anticipated.

Marrowgar -Frost
LDW - Frost What are you talking about ? the frostbolts in phase 2? dps should be interrupting them
Gunship -Fire (if your raid is dumb enough to stand in it) The fire damage is minimal and easily avoidable.
Saurfang - No resistance but you could pop AM w/ Devo at 30% if you wanted to
Festergut - Shadow heh http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=72103 > aura mastery
Rotface - nothing here
Putricide - Shadow ( all of the p3 aoe raid damage is shadow damage) Tanks are getting 100x harder then the raid , them staying alive is more important then dps. You can down this boss if a few dps die but its a wipe if the tank dies.
Blood Prince Council - Fire for the orbs or Shadow for the Shadow Lance tank If your ranged tank has the correct ammount of orbs then he only gets hit for 3000 a hit and is easily healed threw the empowered shadowbolts.
BQ Lana'thel - Shadow x 100 million
Valithria Dreamwalker - Fire ( the real raid wiper is the Blazing Skeletons. uninteruptable fire damage) <- if your dps dosent kill the blazeing skeletons before they start that aoe then its your dps's fault.
Sindragosa - Frost damage x 100 million
Lich King - Shadow Shadow Frost Frost

Look, alot of your statements are a matter of your opinion. But it's been proven that AM will generally mitigate more damage than DS. No raid is perfect, things happen, and for alot of fights AM will be the better CD than DS. And as far as putricide goes, You are WAYYYY off base. Like so far its laughable. The amount of damage going out AM is far superior. Less healing the healers have to do on the raid, the more they can do on the tanks. Also with Ret being one of the higher single target Specs out there atm, Your DPS on Putricide is VERY important.

there is one thingh that i dont get, why ppl use jdugement> CS> DS?

On undead mobs exorcims has a 100% crit and crits for more them CS+seal proc crits combine
and why CS>DS? crusader strike its for 93% wepon damage(think is this with all the talents) and DS 110% wepon dmage DS does more damge.

Yes i know that with the 2t10 set bonus melle attacks will reset DS and exorcims is a spell but i dont have 2t10set.
Anyways why cs>DS? dont you want to use DS so it will be on cd so when you use CS+seal proc 40% of reseting ds? dont you want to have ds on cd has mucth has possible?.

Etna, I would suggest that you head over and take a look at this thread. While its 4 pages long, it will clearly and concisely break down every question about your rotation and why one attack is of higher priority than another.

EU Armory and a name like Etna.... You wouldn't happen to be Sicilian, now would you?

The volcano that formed the island of Sicily is named Mount Etna. Lived at the base of that volcano for 3 years and watched numerous pillars of smoke and lava spew from it. My car was regularly covered with volcanic ash. Good times.
