    Perhaps they recently....acquired the character? *wink wink nudge nudge*

    That or they are just really really......slow.
    If you must insist on using a non-sanctioned sitting apparatus, please consider the tensile strength
    of the materials present in the object in question in comparison to your own mass volumetric density.

    In other words, stop breaking shit with your fat ass.

    502 dagger main hand. Change that stupid combat spec for sub. Lawdy Lawdy if I had a 502 main hand...

    From what I understood sub took over assassination with some raid gear, until then assassination was superior. Am I mistaken in that thought process?

    Did you just refute an argument that sub hasn't done as much as it simmed to do by linking an image of the sim that it's supposed to do relative to other specs?

    Not saying subtlety is in a bad place, since I've got a 2.6 MH and have to play combat to use it reasonably... but please make better arguments.

    Pretty sure he did... he should go look at some actual recorded data instead of living in a cave with his simulation numbers.

    Higher weapon damage isn't enough. You would have to know exactly how much higher. Yeah you lose the weapon damage difference usually there from using a dagger, but you also lose a lot of damage from normalization.

    That should be correct, sub seems to scale the best with gear and so will grow over the other two specs as ilvl goes up. However, it also must be considered whether or not you can consistently put out near optimal numbers with the spec. Assassination is, I'm sure many would agree, by far the easiest spec, as well as the least affected by bad fight mechanics.

    That said, I would just respec sub if I was the OP.

    This should have been /thread.

    Combat is always going to win on Stone Guards whether you have a 502 dagger or not. I don't know why you guys are telling him to respec.

    How someone can get a 502 weapon without knowing the basic mechanics of the spec is completely unknown to me.

    For people missing that, OP asked:
    should i wear my 502 dagger in my main hand as combat or use the heroic dungeon axe?
    These words cannot stay together in the same sentence apart "i got stuck in a dagger fight and mid combat i stabbed the main hand of my opponent" which still doen't make much sense.

    That's why i call troll.

    Anyway, giving an answer:
    - you don't want to use a dagger as combat main hand in any case but if the ilvl of the dagger is vastly (read: talking about tiers of difference) superior than your current main hand; it's just a dps loss.

    Closing the thread. Answer has been provided.
