    Bonus DoT Ticks

    As Fire spec'd what haste rating percent or number should I be around to benefit from the "Bonus DoT Ticks" (LB, Pyro DoT)? Im wondering if I should cut back on stacking critical strike rating to first reach the haste rating bonus DoT's ticks. Here are my stat's at the moment self-buffed (int, molten armor).

    6580 SP
    17.03% Hit
    27.18% Crit
    6.12% Haste (+3.12 on character sheet but with netherwind presence adds 3% which equals 6.12%)

    3% haste from gear + 3% from 3/3 NP does NOT equal 6,12% haste... it's multiplicative: 1,0312*1,03=1,062136 ... take the 5% raidbuff into account: 1,062136 * 1,05 = 1,1152428 which is 11,52428% ... so you are beneath the softcap of 12,5% haste

    516 haste should be the exact value of haste to bring you just above the cap (with 3/3 NP + 5% raidbuff) -> try to reforge extra haste/unreforge stuff back to haste or simply enchant wrists/hands with haste (if you haven't already)
