Consider ditching your Bandit cloaks/Belts, as well as Soldier ones.They are now obsolete with this patch

My crit has plummeted down a whooping 5.2%.


Monkey/Bear>>>crit stuff. Glowing Lizardscale for cloak on agil dps.


Naga is STILL better, i checked, both with 2 dmg scopes on. It still gives more attack power, and it is the same speed.(slower speed=higher hitting specials like Arcane shot/Explosive), fast speeds=fast hitting auto shots.


Oh, and 20's cant wear lvl 21-24 gear. I checked with several random lvl 21-24 greens and even a gnomer gigaflux helm.Kein. Net.Niguno. Cant wear.
 
Stat scaling is just really weird right now. One game i had my resil, the next I didn't.

Playing around with hit in a BG, my priest had 15% (0 rating) with just GSoJ equipped, 11% (-8 rating) with no hit on, 19% (10 hit rating) with GSoJ and Rune of Perfection, and 16ish% (2 rating) with just Rune of Perfection. Don't vendor your crit gear yet, something seems off :p

again this is weird. This was a warrior with 13.4 % crit. I did go against a 24 (Which made my crit go all the way down to 5.2) Then I just checked my stats again and its 16% crit outta nowere ..its either the stats are not finalized or something

And you do get that new trinket...I tried doing the ''use''and unequipping it and the stam boost buff f will dissapear sadly.They are taking my realm down for maintenace again..so maybe that will fix it

That's what I was afraid of. At least we don't need to farm for lvl 24 gear.

Something that is worth testing:

Do our healers oom faster now?
Do boas scale to 24?
Do we get new abilities?
What's the hit cap # for spell and hit.?
What new boas did we get?
Do we scale to 24 in wargame arenas?

Please post Q/A asap.
 
You guys can all do whatever you want, but I'm not changing a thing or getting rid of anything for at least a week so all the apparent bugs are worked out.

There are good reasons here to chill out and take a longer view of things, and not cry "The sky is falling" so quickly.

- Nope, at least my hpal can last even longer now. I'll ask about other classes now.
Mana costs: flash 45>60, shock 19>26
(same mana cost to mana pool ratio but higher combat regeneration)

- Yes they scale

To all those warriors out there, overpower still requires level 30, although you gain TfB, its useless. Also note that TfB says level 30 in your spell book.

La'haryl's warrior. Pretty much speaks for its self. He has the BIS Crit set for Warrior. He posted this on MMOChamp just in case anyone thinks I'm him.
 
Stop acting like crit is worthless now and assess each piece individually.
 
This is really hard to judge right now because many players are reporting that their crit is changing from bg to bg. Some games they have crit, and some games close enough to zero to be effectively zero. It's happened to me. One game it's "fine" (relative to 5.2 changes) and another game, logs show I only crit on 2 hits the entire bg, basically zero percent. And it SEEMS to be independent to there actually being 24s in the BG (though I think it must be, and we're just missreporting right now).

Unless more ppl start recording and combing through their stats, it's not even clear if the % being displayed, (regardless of what that number is or "should" be) is the crit % they're getting in the BG. So, until we get more data it's hard to say whether crit is "broken/worthless" by design in 5.2, or whether something in the game is causing it to not be experienced as blizz intends (whether we like that intent or not :p)
