Seems really good? 1346 heal (when you need it) every 90 seconds.

Also does anyone know if these legion boss dungeon drops can proc a socket? My lvl 60 loots sockets but I've yet to see one on my 20.

I have never had a socketed trinket from a Legion dungeon on anything except a level 45/50 ( 110 / 120 ). That includes when i was boosting on a 101 in Legion ( over 1K runs ). They are either extremely rare or don't happen.

Parjesh is good for the effect as an FC. Not sure about rules for Legion dungeon drops. I think its 45+ only or something.
 
new dalaran, wait at where people port to, message every single player as soon as they land with this "Could you please help me 2-man the dungeon Violet Hold for a quest, right here in dalaran, while you are here please? I can share the quest so that you can be on it too, it will only take about 10 minutes" Invite them when they say "sure", party sync, take the quest that becomes available (given by the NPC before the dungeon entrance), share it with them to make them feel good.

120 runs later, i got my https://www.wowhead.com/item=137440/shivermaws-jawbone (after getting every other possible drop from this entire dungeon)

I feel you man - My DH is 5K Rep off Revered with the Keepers of Time, just from running Old Hillsbrad over and over for the shoulders. Each mob is 8 Rep plus boss rep, 2 bosses drop Leather shoulders, which made it worse. Can't get the Mastery ring from the first boss of Darkheart Thicket either, or the Trinket from Black Rook Hold ....

Lol. I feel sick in the guts just thinking about Old Hillsbrad. Just thinking about Thrall and his non-upgraded Mount speed makes me crook.....:eek:
 
can roll socket right?

Yepper, just did the first boss on my 15 pally and got a socket cloak! Thanks for asking i wouldnt have otherwise. :)

(it's actually not much upgrade unless I just talasite it, but its awesome anyway! ilvl 22 BoE is 3/4/3/3 just FYI compare)

looks like i will be forced to run this place 2,000 times now.
 
Well... the ilvl 28 BoE will be better, so all you could really feel inclined to farm that bad would be the trinket...

And it's likely there's better options on that one. Not sure how good it is but there's SO many good trinkets.
 
Big shoutout to The Bladefist and Blackout Truncheon!

Absolutely love these items. Dunno why they haven't been mentioned yet. Or if i just haven't noticed them. I love rolling them on my Warr and Enh Sham. Probs will get the Fist on my DH aswell. Although it might not be the best setup i love the haste. That's my jam! Absolutely crazy uptime on them aswell. usually close to about 40% fighting dummies anyway.

We were talking about them in a fury warr thread a while back and the consensus was that the only reason they could be viable over the artifact (for fury tho) was the SMF ability that increases damage 12%. Mostly https://www.wowhead.com/item=27901/blackout-truncheon?bonus=6710

But that was fury... I think we talked a little about enhance but that was more about https://www.wowhead.com/item=156998/cudgel-of-naralex?bonus=3631 for the speed.

His mount is actually slower then the 60|% mount speed, pretty sure he move at lik 35-40% MS
I think things like bladefist/blackout are good with moks or cudgel mh?
 
at 115% ms he is slightly faster so I think he is somewhere around 120-140% I think he is a bit faster then ghostwolf form but I can't remember atm.

For the Ironfoe Part it is defo not worth. it'd take any other ilevel 25 over ironfoe. not worth whatsoever. The chances of it proccing is simply way to small. and not worth the hassle of farming it i did about 30 runs for it. Which is actually not that bad. But yeah your right about that i remember beeing semi-apart of that convo aswell, atleast reading it.

The Cudgel however is probs a decent pick. I've got ti haven't been able to do proper extensive testing but it felt like the bladefist/Tuncheon combo was better. but i might be wrong. and probably not for a hardhitting vers/crit enhance. then i would imagine the cudgel truncheon combo would be better or even the ones from Auchenai fists with double socket.

Interesting comments on Ironfoe - I use it about 50% of the time on my 25 WW Farmer, I don't find the proc rate is that bad tbh, but that's without any numbers to back up the feels ! I assume the slow weapon rate has the same effect @ 20 as at 25 - the top end damage is way better with 1 slow weapon equipped.

I have a pair of the Auchenai Fists for my DH, they have no stam which in bursty meta probably isn't a good thing imo. If you put a Talasite in each you to balance the lack of Stam then ( certainly on the DH ) I'd rather go with the Artifact weapon. ( +10 Agility / -130 HP with 4 x +3 Agility Gems)
 
Well if i look at the numbers it's about 2% proc when i last tested it. which really doesen't cut it compared to a 40+ haste with about 40% uptime for me anyway.
One of the only reasons to consider Ironfoe is that it being ilvl 28 gives it a bit more weapon dmg than other 1handed weapons from dungeons. The extra swing is a nice perk, but its not providing a whole lot of damage.

One of the things I think people might be overlooking and that I think is worth mentioning in an "interesting items" thread is the BG crate 1hander rewards. Same weapon damage as ironfoe and an adaptable/impatient variety might actually net you the consistent output and balance of stats absent some of the proc/gem based options.
