Goblin resto Hastecap for Earthliving

[Brawley]

Hello! Havent seen a thread abaut this so gonna make one.

Just tested earthliving HoT with 788 haste and it healed me 5 times, with WoA totem up. Can someone else confirm that 787 is the actual cap for this HoT to get a extra tick for Goblins, instead of the 916 that it is for others. (araund 916 at least)

Thanks in advance to anyone who can confirm this haste "cap" for us Goblins, I think theres alot of shamans out there with excessive haste which needs to become Crit/Mastery

According to Life in group 5, a goblin shaman needs ~6.08% haste.

Which If I'm right equates to ~779 haste rating

Thats odd, I calculated that 1%haste aka= 129* haste rating minus 916 would be 787.

Any chanse you could link me to the page where it says this?

Thanks for the reply

Isn't the Goblin racial "1% cast speed" and not "1% haste"? If it is, then it shouldn't matter cause the ticks are based off haste and not cast speed...

Correct me if I'm wrong. :P

as I said I tested this, and im getting 5 ticks instead of 4 ticks even though im using 788 haste instead of 916.
I thought it was 1% casting speed also, but on my statscreen it says 1% even when I remove all my gear, which would imply that indeed we get 1% haste and not only casting speed.

Correct me if im wrong!

I think the racial's tooltip is just worded in a bad way and it's actually just 1% haste.

Haste needed for 5 ticks of Earthliving = 7.1455% (916 rating)

Goblins has 1% passive haste


This leads to that new haste needed is: Gear x 1.01 = 1.071455
=6,08465 % needed

=780,00691 rating



PS. I am running with 781 minimum. Haven't tried if 780 or 779 works.

I just tested 780 and got 5 ticks, so yeah, you should be fine with that. but yeah 781 is probably safer

I thought the 916 was for Riptide and not Earthliving?

nope. haste points are riptide, then healing rain, then ElW. the riptide haste point is really low, something like 250ish.

The haste tooltip in character screen is worded exactly like the Goblin racial. So yeah, it's just the tooltip being misinforming.

I'm not sure if its the way you're rounding or the way Blizzard is but I have tested this personally and for Goblins the haste cap is in fact 779 rating. I was once unfortunately stuck at 778 haste and did NOT gain the extra tick. I swapped some gear around and some gems and managed to hit 779 and DID get the extra tick.

But think of that as the minimum. It never hurts to be a bit above it which is why i'm currently at 782 haste in my current setup.

Nm, read wrong.

[Brawley]

ahh thanks for the hints/help and hope this helped a few other resto goblin healers optimise some gear.

Oh and WOOT! 15% more healing, gotta love that
