What other than the extra Blade Flurry does it give you in terms of Burst?

Forgive my ignorance, it was nerfed before I was able to try it.

EDIT: The only thing I can see it benefiting from is the Combat shinies you wouldn't get normally as ShS.

I used quotes for "burst" because having AR isn't a burst in the comman usage but it is 15 seconds of incredibly more dps than you were putting out before.

AR wasn't nerfed. The meaning behind "the AR/Prep nerf" only meant they took AR off prep so you can't have two AR's as AR/Prep. You still get the one on the 5min timer though.

Oh I was aware of that. I should have been clearer. I meant to say what other than the extra blade flurry does having Prep do for you. As opposed to going combat or something.

Thank you for clearing it up for me though.

Two vanishes, two evasions, blind's...

All that is very useful. It doesn't help out the combat TREE, just the playstyle.


Not fighting for the spec, was just commenting on where it has its uses and where it does excel.

Me raiding again, yay!

Went to BT, killed Teron and Shade (Loot) of Akama. Tomorrow maybe RoS on Bloodboil will die. :) No items though, but first on dmg meter at Teron. Whole raid did a good job, we could better use ghosts on Teron, but it was ok. :)

Finally got enough badges to get my hawt new pants, breaking my 2 piece T4 set bonus, but putting me at 1800+ AP, 24% crit and 333 +hit. I'm fairly pleased with myself, and now I can horde all the badges I'm getting for the expansion since none of the other pieces are very big upgrades.

BoJ most likely won't be available for use in the expansion as level 80's could just go back and farm kara in ~2hours :)
#939 Aug 20 2008 at 1:55 AM Rating: Decent
kara can be cleared in just over an hour now :P

More like 30 - 40 mins or so at 80 IMO.

Aren't the new heroics going to have new badges and new gear associated with them?
#941 Aug 20 2008 at 6:12 AM Rating: Decent
They'll probably make an equivalent turn-in item to a BoJ, but will be called something else. Just do what i do demea, buy all the gems you can, get a guildie to cut them for free, and charge a ******** for them. :)

So, I finally ventured into the battlegrounds, I've been very circumspect about doing so, seeing as though I'd totally OD'd on them with my warrior (even the thought at some stages made me feel ill).

Anyway, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, I actually had a fair deal of fun. Encountered a 'lock trying to take the snowfall gy (same thing I set out to do), and we immediately engaged (although not before I stealthed). So it was shadowstep, cheap shot, and let rip ... he's about 60% hp when CS wears off, then the inevitable fear comes, together with the DoTs. Fear breaks, Cloak of shadows gets rid of the dots, I lay into him again. I get a 5pt rupture off with him low on hp, which ultimately kills him.

My first 1v1, and against a 'lock .. She didn't have a pet out (obviously not expecting resistance), and probably sucked bad (at least a little worse than me) ... but a first kill 1v1 is always satisfying ;-)

ofc, I got WTFPWND by a S3/4 hunter when I tried to stop him recapturing IW bunker .. it was very sobering ;-)

Got the Tabi Boots. Now to Gem them with epics and get the Cats Swiftness on them.

Only thing left for ew helm is to get the Earthstorm Transmute, Get it cut, and put an AGI or AGI/Hit gem in instead of the blue one since my boots will have my second blue now.

Got a gladiator title lock (his mage is merciless gladiator title) to carry me in 2s because my mage is back in school. Went 10-3 with two geared warrior/pally team losses and will hopefully run right on past 2050 ^.^

About HARP or ar/prep or HP or whatever, it's not a very good build any more except if you have a 3v3 team with a shammy and warrior i think (you can blow sh*t up with AR, heroism and windfury totem and blade flurry, warrior has sweeping strikes/ death wish and shammy is providing that 10% bonus ap), but in 2v2 when you have so much control as rogue/rogue you can pretty much keep your enemy slowed/stunned/silenced until they die, so shs isn't necessary for one of the rogues. I use it for tricky saps and to catch up to a druid and lay a 5 point KS if they're not in bear, meanwhile my partner outDPSes my by loads with AR up, which is usually enough to finish an enemy off.

Finally got my Brutal Helm last night and I'm pretty happy about that! :)

Gogo power rangers helmet!

Grats on the helm man!

Almost 6 months after getting my first piece of t6(many, many, many guild problems/changes), I finally have my 2pc after getting the shoulders off of mother, AND the Blade of Savagery. Had a bunch of new peeps on Illy, wiping at 15% ftl. :/

Got my badge fists off the Isle and respeced combat fists!!! Three weeks of failed Kara runs prevented me from getting them sooner, but I finally got into a MT PUG for the heroic daily and got the last 4 BoJ that I needed. Then it was off the the mobs outside of the portal in order to raise my unarmed (fists = unarmed?) skill. Took about an hour to go from 205 to 349/350.

got the S4 pants after getting to 1550 three times and forgetting to buy them. Got to 1580 and forgot to buy bracers. Now back at below 1550 because my partner disconnected twice and we got some lousy teams.

Yes i know i suck :P

WTB : working head.

I only just noticed that my DPS on the Spreadsheet and my DPS on Teron Gorefiend the other night were damn near identical.

I think I was a 20-30 DPS shy of the Spreadsheet number.
