    SoO weapon procs

    Do you guys think they'll bother with them this time around? We're decently late into the PTR cycle to have absolutely none of them show up...

    I'm really hoping they add them. Weapon procs are always more interesting (especially gurthalak style ones).

    Edit: I remember GC tweeting about them a long while ago, but hasn't said a word about them since. I've tweeted him about it but I've yet to get a response.

    I dont think they will

    ICC didnt have weapon proc weapons (unless you count Shadowmourne)

    The SoO loot has already been datamined so unless they have more to add there are no procs on weapons, just regular stats like every other weapon so far.

    Nibelung was one of the most fun weapons ever...

    I know they've been datamined, but they still could be adding/changing stats on them. They've done it before. (Although it's definitely unlikely, with us being this far into the PTR with no procs at all datamined. They'd want us to test them if they had them.)

    The dagger off lady deathwhisper gaves rogues additional energy and the staff let casters some little valks to assist them in combat.

    That's not correct, there were quite a few proc weapons in ICC:

    Zod's Bow for example (triggering an extra attack)
    a healer mace with a proc
    a tank weapon with a proc
    a staff that summoned undead minions

    don't know the names right now, but they can be found on wowhead.

    I am also a big fan of proc weapons - i love weapons that summon minions (Dagger from Illidan, Gurthalak, etc)

    edit: meh, too late

    I read somewhere that Garrosh will drop weapons similar to Madness of Deathwing and that they will have proccs.

    That information however might be outdated.

    Clearly we need to continue the trend of balancing PvE around PvP.

    Just make the proc work in PVE only. Problem solved.

    I'm not sure but from what i remember the datamined SoO weapons had the same weapon types and stats as the ToT weapons. At least the Agi fist has Haste/Crit on both raids and there's an agi axe with Crit/mastery on both raids as well. Not to mention the icons are the same so because of that, I'm quite sure the stats /effects are bound to change.

    They can do what they did with the legendary meta, make them unable to proc on players. Plus, we shouldn't lose all of our fun items because pvpers don't like them.
