Thread: Destro 85 Spec

    Destro 85 Spec

    Hey, i've been fooling around with some spec's and from i've seen. I've narrowed it down to 3 that i see being possible cookie cutter specs. I was curious which one people thought would be the best for overall DPS.

    http://www.wowhead.com/talent#IbhZcbZIrbfMbskdo = extra with pet heals

    http://www.wowhead.com/talent#IbhZfZIrbfMbskdo = extra stam survivability

    http://www.wowhead.com/talent#IrhZcZIrbfMbskdo = my personal thoughts on what i think would be best since at 85, esp in heroics you need to lifetap often and this will reduce the amount of times.

    My experience on beta learned me that you won't be lifetapping all that much, especially as destro with the right talents. Stay out of the afflic tree, get mana feed and fel synergy in demo.

    Or you could take the Jinx talent as Starcrossedd suggested. You will prob get enough mana regen from soul leech.

    why not spec into doom and gloom? it would make more sense just to spec into life tap if you're that worried about mana, I doubt the gcd save on not having to life tap will result in more dps than having those 2 pts in doom and gloom.

    This looks nice, but when raiding 25's (What i currently run) it is rare that i'm needed for CoE making Jynx essentially useless for me.

    From what i've seen, not taking Gloom and Doom will be a larger DPS loss than having to life tap the extra time.

    When were you playing, Since from what i can remember when i was going in with the blue premades (not the epic'd) Lifetap would definantly be used more than a few times a fight. Clearly this will be stopped by the time your gear increases so maybe it might not be worth spec'ing into.

    Overall, this is what i've think i've seen/come to.
    http://www.wowhead.com/talent#IbGZcZIrbcRbsRdozV = For 10m Raiding where you will need to CoE etc.
    http://www.wowhead.com/talent#IrhZcZIrbfMbskdo = Not cursing/mana issues from lower end gear.
    http://www.wowhead.com/talent#IbhZfZIrbfMbskdo = Like the one above, however if you don't need the extra mana from lifetap, i think the surviability will help due to the fact that with Cata. Healing is alot harder and helping the healers in any way would be grealy appreciated im sure.

    With the absence of a soul shard soulburn might be useful after 20%

    It was never Hardcore Vs Casual. It was Socialites Vs. Solo players

    Yea my guild will be running 10m raids not 25 and we don't run with a class that will offset elements, but I can see where that would become completely useless in much larger raid groups.

    Not really since you will only get back soul shards on a killed target and the damage from shadowburn isnt too great.
