staves are better than MH/OH because you get 1 extra socket

I stopped reading after” StAvEs ArE BeTtER ThAn Oh, BeCaUsE StAVEs hAvE an ExtRa SockEt” how are sockets the determiner now for bis, with gems being nerfed sockets for most cases still are bis, but for mh off hand that is a negative. Off hands were granted a huge main stat boost making items like talon and a high intellect off hand bis over a 3 socket staff.

ah ye sry my mistaked, new to the bracket. was more trying to collate a list of items. Thanks for the info, my twink will be that bit stronker now :> ps what item do you mean by talon?

I assume http://www.wowhead.com/item=30723/talon-of-the-tempest
And don't worry. Welcome to the bracket :) We are mostly level 70s here, but good luck on finding things at the 79 part of twinking though! :D
[doublepost=1532734708,1532734545][/doublepost]Oh also, some loot from TotC doesn't show up in the list of drops from the dungeon journal for the first two bosses. There are some rings in there that drop which do have a socket, one of which I use on my warrior. Might want to run it a few times to see if there's anything worth getting :)

What shinela said. And I do appreciate the effort you put into the thread. Interested in seeing how this will continue.
 
I know it isn't a dungeon item that scales up for level 79's, but what about that cloak from Sunwell that has a Socket? The one from Kil'Jaeden, would that be something possible to use?
 
As far as I know, all legacy set bonuses are inactive? Can anyone ratify this?
Mana-Etched Regalia and the other non-class specific sets, such as Doomplate et al, retain their bonuses.

to be fair 2h is better than 1h+OH. Nearly same amount of primary stat and more 2nd stats.
i know just one case for 1h+OH, stacking pvp-power.

personally i pref 1h just for style.

that's interesting. There are some set bonus which are "active" but dont work anywhere.
Do you checked that?

I will repost here the content of a thread you can find on the 60-69s section.

Mana-Etched Regalia set bonus is working as intended. Here is proof
https://imgur.com/a/IiowlbV
As you can see, the set bonus provides 29 (and +7 that comes with that specific hand slot, so it is a total of +36) critical rating. This results in me having a total of 91 critical rating across all my gear.

This is without the +29+7 critical rating
https://imgur.com/a/1KOl8sj

The set bonus is working, its even providing an extra +1 critical rating, probably just a rounding error.

NOTE: Do take in consideration that there seems to be a glitch affecting the bonus on specs that have critical multiplier passives such as Fire Mage's Critical Mass.

98+33+15= 146 sp

62+33+5+1=101
https://gyazo.com/bfd5332c1416ab43a5b9ed7545118fd6 46+101= 147, these arnt even bis pieces and they have more sp then staves, the loss of secondarys is a big one, but my main point was that he said "because of sockets" it was better. I'll keep looking around since i don't know 79 well before assuming there gears stats but maybe there are higher secondary one h/off h combo. https://gyazo.com/530c292e06246208362bdd57b68a2464

I take staff for swag even if it’s not BIS, so I can see where he is coming from. Lmao

79 Fire Mage if anyone is interested

I'm working on getting spellfire set too, really interested to see what it will do.

Also there is some bracers in Icecrown I don't have yet.

Wouldn't mind feedback :)

Why not 2 socket belt, 2 socket boots, and 2 of the 2 socket trinkets?
There is also a 2 socket ring

Thank you for the feedback. I'm still working on a few things with this one. What items, specifically, are you referencing? I'd love to look at them.

Also I'm working on building the Spellfire set, which is chest, belt, and gloves. More to play around with.
