You know, I just rolled a mage on WM just to check out Pal. Maybe I'll be useful!

It's like a hot rod you keep in the garage and tune up every now and then. You pop in on the weekends, peek under the hood, maybe have an idea of how to get a couple more horsepower out of that engine. Then you start working on another car and boy howdy, this one's a beaut. Your friends come by...

Thoughts on 1% dodge to cloak vs +5 resistances?

I'm having a hard time finding a Miner's hat, but maybe I'll fiddle with that kind of build for a utility spec. BG's usually have enough big dick damage anyway, tides tend to turn when there's someone clicking a purge button. I'm planning on building a full resto set for him anyway, really love...

Question for all you shaman experts out there: could there be an enhancement build that works +Nature Damage into its stats? As I've been leveling one for 39s it seems shocks are still a large part of my damage output. I'm planning on using Staff of Jordan as a melee weapon, and I was thinking...

It's a bit different than mine, more on the defensive side. I've never noticed an issue with resists so I opted, like @Indexfinger mentioned, for Improved Arcane Missiles and for Clearcasting (which procs a lot when you AoE). Here's my spec...

First off, I've really enjoyed this thread and keep coming back to it nine months in. So thanks so much for doing all the work to start it! When I started playing my fire mage I wasn't super satisfied with scorch spamming, and I used to run an Arcane Explosion spec as a cheese build back in BC...

for 29 bracket I'd probably go with death speaker if I wanted +healing, but I was planning on going 14/2/4 dipping into shadow for blackout. I guess my question is, how much is spirit really helping a priest in a bg? I'm gonna get a little bit of regen during battle, but for the most part I'm...

Looking into a 29 priest, and I'm scratching my head a little on the many options for weapons. I don't want to grind for the medicine pouch, and I think I want to do a stat build rather than +healing. Below stats are (stam/int/spirit). So why is the Wind Spirit Staff (5/3/15) often rated higher...

never did find it. I know this is a gear thread, but is anyone else having trouble with their classic cast bar addon? it keeps making me disable it before i get into the bg

anybody have a good strategy for farming the rare spawn in RFK? i think i got lucky with my old toon, having trouble finding that bat that drops Nightstalker Bow

As someone who twinked in BC and reupped to try it again in vanilla, this is been super helpful for figuring out the differences between the two. Thanks for the thoughtful post :) Gonna miss that double mongoose rogue, but it sounds like combat still hits like a truck. Can't wait to try it out!

Thanks for the breakdown, I reupped not realizing how out of the loop I'd be after 10 years off. Our server is pretty high pop, and Con librams are running 130g minimum right now, lowest I've seen them is 75g a couple weeks back. Maybe it'll level out eventually.

on my server the con librams are running 150g right now, so it's about 200g for the arcanum which is why i was considering dodge. I wasn't sure if dodge had a spell component attached, been ten years since I played so thanks for clarifying. Hopefully by the time bgs come out the con librams will...

Still trying to figure out how these arcanums work and which one to use. Why is the +100 hp one so much more expensive than +1% dodge? Is dodge just a trash stat in vanilla? Seems like it would be useful for PvP.

huh, I saw those on the AH the other day and didn't register that they were so hard to find. It's definitely screwy right now in the AH, never know what's going to sell for what. Currently 7 Zealot blades on, selling as low as 9g each. Wonder when it will calm down

Sounds like Zealot blade is hands down BiS then for MH? Or does The Butcher compete at all?

Yeah I'd eventually like to test a dodge set, especially once I have two Grand Masters to stack. This is my first time twinking for Vanilla, I started in BC and ran the Mongoose rogue (with the quest items enchanted), so I'm sure it'll play a lot differently. Stamina will definitely be a lot...

for 29 bracket rogues, are "of eluding" items a thing? Or are the tundra rings and necklaces of the monkey decidedly better? wondering if the +1% dodge would make up for the missing +4 stamina
