    I have a problem with ARP

    I'm not that huge into PVP but I do arena every so often. I use my PVE weapon because its better than the PVP weapons available. My problem is if i get the new ARP trinket from ruby sanc and have to gem all STR would it be better to go 100% STR and use heroic DC, heroic WFS, or pick up the AP battlemasters trinket?

    PLEASE HALP! The 5 STR gems from my weapon, rep ring, and ranged weapon will make me do less damage in arenas to people with armor. On the upside I will do more damage to people with out armor.

    My PVP set is full wrathful (set and off set) I Also have the relentless ring if needed for hit.

    I'd worry about your grammar before asking what to gem. You just wrote 3 paragraphs with a grand total of 2 punctuation marks and I really don't even understand what your asking.

    Really shakkenbake? Was that hard? Maybe you should worry about your reading comprehension when posting on international forums instead of commenting on their grammar.

    On topic: I'd pick up the best trinkets available, including the new ones from Ruby Sanctum and work my gear around that.

    I have all of them thats my problem... and PVP is completly differnt in terms of DPS than PVE so I'm not sure if replacing a ton of gems in the PVE gear I use for PVP will effect it that much. Using landsoul and Rawr really wouldnt help due to every one having differnt armor and avoidance. If half my gear is gemmed ARP and half is gemmed STR I dont know if it will work out that well.

    What I do is use Landsoul's Spreadsheet, but in the bottom left there's a "Target" box. Change it to:
    Level 80
    Player
    1000 Resilience

    Now change Armor between 6000 (clothie with armor buffs) to 15000 (Plate) and see what set up works the best for you. Make sure you turn all of the raid buffs (large grid bottom right) off with the exception of the ones you know you'll have, such as Rampage as a Fury warrior.

    Well honestly from fight to fight you can be hitting a cloth target and 2 seconds later a plate target and they all can have between 800 and 1415 resil and between 6000 and 20000+ armor so i guess there isnt really a good answer here I guess im going to have to give up some of my PVP DPS because regemming every night or other night (even weekly) will get expensive.

    I understand how it works I guess im the only one that has this problem (or will have this problem) due to having so much ARP without gems.
