Are you sure? By my count, 13 levels only gives you 1/3 in Furious Swipes. 

You need 3/3 Furious Swipes, and you're all set. It's not about the number of points, it's about getting your AoE strong. It's your first power spike, and it's very cheap to get.

The next power spike is a gold trait that procs lighting when you do Multi Shot, it's also about a +10% boost to sustained AoE damage, but it costs much more AP to get.

When is Stampede better than Kill Cobra for this raiding tier? I was finally happy to give it a try during Xavius, but then the group decided to just burn the boss to under 65% to only get one add. In the end my DPS was much lower than with Kill Cobra.

Is it worth picking for Dragons? Maybe use it on the shades?

From popular talents on logs, I can't see one fight on Mythic where people have chosen to go for Stampede.

Hi, I just got the Qa'Pla boots, how does this change my rotation when I use Killer Cobra? If I use Kill Command and Dire Beast, the CD on KC becomes a mere 2 seconds. Is it still worth filling that time with Cobra Shot or should I just wait? 

Or maybe they overlap too much, and I should switch to Stampede?

Curious about the trinket sims, Want to confirm why Chrono Shard better without set (Assuming its just because the ring is bad?)

It's a neck, not a ring, and yes, it's kinda bad. Although the simulation is using a pretty god-tier ring as baseline, which might not be the best thing.

Hi Azor, thanks for the guide, just wanted to ask at the beginning of the guide u say that we should use BM for Mythic+ and switch to MM for raiding,  I tried both specs in the beginning and i could not get my head round MM so I have decided to stick with BM.  

Is this BM guide only good for people who are looking to do Mythic+ content or are you doing this for raiding as well?

Is there any chance you guys will add a pet guide / tier list? There isn't much info about commonly used pets or when to use the great cooldowns some of them provide (Lust and battle Rez)

Easy - when your raid leader tells you to.

Which pets: http://www.wow-petopia.com/

Bloodlust if your raid doesn't have it.

Battle rez if your raid group is low on them. 2-3 per 10 people is plenty enough.

Otherwise use a spirit beast as they get spirit mend for small healing. 

Keep in mind you can carry all three pets with you and swap between them depending on situation.

Since all pets do same DPS, and don't offer any other useful abilities, there's not much difference in which one to use.

The guide is intended for PvE, with notes and alternatives put in when required for different content types.

Guest Titans Thunder Macro

That is a bad macro, since Titan's Thunder is not on the GCD, meaning that if you press that macro and both abilities are off cooldown, you will activate Titan's Thunder in the GCD leading up to the Dire Beast cast, meaning you lose its benefit.

So no, don't use that macro.

Oh so you're saying that if DB is on CD and TT is not, it will cast TT without a Dire Beast? If so, that is bad, I agree.

Can you delete my post then? :(

Is there anyway to fix the macro?

Isn't titans thunder out of the game now? should it be removed from the BM rotation?

I've been really looking at stats from our guild raids, and some testing on dummies, and it seems that there is a significant problem with Stomp.

Depending on the pet summoned with dire beast, the "stomp" attack occurs significantly before reaching the  targets... sometimes as much as 50% failure rate. The only way to remedy this is to basically stand right near tanks / targets. And given I am often managing ranged mechanics for the raid, this is obviously problematic.

I have recently started using Dire Frenzy to compensate, which has helped. However, DPS loss is significant, compared to a properly working Stomp.

Anyone else experiencing this issue?

I have only ever experienced the Stomp issue on dummies where it happens basically all the time. I have seen it happen in dungeons and raids but only in one-off situations where the pathing is weird and/or the mobs moved on cast.

Do you think the Potion of Prolonged Power is going to be better than Potion of Deadly Grace?

You should know that the cooldown reset on Kill Command doesn't happen until Cobra Shot lands on the target.

This is no longer the case in 7.1

Guest Trollioli - Hyjal

Had that same question about relics. I'm assuming it's the +ilvl given to the weapon and not the ilvl of the relic, since +4/+6 etc are not overall relic ilvl iterations.

 

For trinket sims: The new Ethereal Urn from Kara is not on the 3-target Sim list but it should be better than the 850 Agi/Haste (Agi/mastery) WQ trinket. Overlooked?

I was looking at the trinkets sims and noticed the wq hatse is ranked higher than the wq mastery. I was a little curious as to why this would be when mastery is usually the more valued stat

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

    • By Starym
      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
