Raid finder tier set or Timeless/Ordos off set

Recommended Posts

All,

I am a 540 survival hunter trying to determine the best course of action for my gear.  I am not in a raiding guild or group so my only gear options are Raid finder, Timeless isle using Burden of Eternity, or Ordos.  It is clear that Ordos has the highest ilvl gear for my list of options and individually they are probably best in slot.  My question comes when we start to look at the tier 16 set bonuses I would get from 2 and 4 piece sets out of raid finder.  Do I stick with the upgraded 528 loot and the set bonus or swap it for 559 upgraded.  Any insight would be helpful

 

Thanks,

Dont forget that Celestials drop 553 gloves and pants, thats 4 trys a week for tier gear. I am also in the same boat and feel your frustation, also depending on your professions, the LW belt are pretty good. Seems like everything i read says to upgrade to higher ilevel, good luck! Curious, what trinkets you're using, i've been looking at the timeless isle trinket and need more info.

      I heard that with the new 4 set Shattering Strikes would be better than Runic Attunement but after simming my self its around 15-20K lower. I was wondering does simming take into account that the 4 set applies Razorice? If not then that'll make sense as to why SS is doing worse than RA. I dont have the 4 set yet I was just simming myself with it to see if SS was actually better with the 4 set.

      After today's nerf to Tier-20 (ToS) the balance druid still goes 4 - T20  and 2 - T21 or we will now take the 4 pieces from T21?
      Thank you!

      Hey guys, I have all 6 tier items (heroic, some WF). My hands are 895, but got a 905 item from mythic chrono.
      Using
      ( Pawn: v1: "Blood": Class=DeathKnight, Spec=Blood, CritRating=4.57, HasteRating=7.57, MasteryRating=3.07, Versatility=6.07, Strength=9.07, Stamina=12.07 )
      (Bad I know, got the numbers from Noxxic, but just swapped mastery and crit around. Matches the balanced priority, been working for me so far lol). Not a bleeding edge raider.
      Current setup

      Proposed setup

       
      Did multiple AMR sims with both setups, and averaged it, and each time 4pc comes out a little ahead. Using Krosus as setup. 

      I'm thinking it;s the versatility on the tier hands that is making the difference, not so much the 25% chance at a rune?
      Thoughts, opinions, Thanks!

      Hey all I'm a returning player and finally hit 110 on my death knight yesterday. I am currently playing a frost dk, but I'm not enjoying it as much as I thought I would. Unholy on the other hand looks pretty sweet... but from what I hear they are in a bad state atm. This might be to early to speculate, but anyone know if buffs are coming this next patch? Should I reroll now before I invest thousands of AP into frost relic? As cool as unholy looks, don't want to play a doomed spec...

      Dear Forums, 
      Long time lurker, first time poster here asking for some advice on raising my dps to a more acceptable bracket because the guild I'm in is starting Heroic HFC and everyone has to do their part. But mostly because the mages in my raid group are crushing the dps charts and my self esteem. 
       
      I'll start by putting the necessary info on the post, here's my character page with the equipment I'm currently using (I don't have mane good trinkets so I don't swap out unending hunger with Rolling Pebble): 
      http://www.askmrrobot.com/wow/player/eu/los_errantes/shantae
       
      And here's my past performances: 
      https://www.warcraftlogs.com/guilds/87795
       
      Despite there being some halfway decent results (Tyrant Velhani on the 28th), I'm averaging a %lvl bracket of 30 and 42k dps (on the good days). 
       
      This wouldn't bother me so much if it was not for the fact that currently: 
      -I have the 4 piece T18 set bonuses
      -The rest of the slots are filled with Mything Dungeon goodness, ranging from 710 to 725. 
      -I have a warforged Empty Drinking Horn. 
       
      So I can't blame my low numbers on gear alone anymore, which means that the problem is me. 
      The boss guide I have been using has been this one: 
      http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/3657441833
       
      The rotations, talents and glyphs have been copied down to a T, although, to avoid desynching my cd's I always use Final Veredict with Execution Sentence and Avenging Wrath every minute if I feel like the battle is too hectic to keep track of everything.
       
      Another thing about me is that I have no keybindings whatsoever. It's something that I admit but until I know how much time I can save on memorizing my bindings I'm not in any rush to start training. Consider it one of my many flaws.
       
      And now we come to the reason why I'm asking the forums for help: I'm missing something and I have no idea what it is (please don't say "a brain") so I'd like to ask the more seasoned vets to rip me a new one and tell me what should I be working on ASAP. 
       
      Cheerio.
