EU+US Scaling and stat squish discussion for 50-59 in BfA

[Lightfall]

I have just finished gearing my Ret, took me around 70 ids to get everything i wanted.
Atm i am running with 12 +6str gems because there are not enough versatility / pvp power ones on the auction house.
My 3 dmg proc items already doing ~13% of my dmg but they only scale with versatility imho.
Will run some bgs with full pvp power and versatility over the next days to make comparisons.

(Can't enchant shoulders / legs properly because this is my only char on this account)

pvp power affects damage procs also, after switching to it I started getting 1100+ sul'thraze procs

(to clarify, versatility scaling shows on the tooltip itself, but in practice, pvp power affects them in situations where pvp power would also)

something i noticed yesterday when Qing for random bgs on my 59 might also affect other brackets is the avg wait time will sometimes show incorrect number

i dropped the Q, reQ about 3-4 times then it will show the correct avg wait time (went from showing avg wait 11 min to avg wait 4 min)

how often does it proc? is pvp power giving you a higher dmg boost than strength? is 1 pvp power > 1 strength?

procs enough to be best 2h for the bracket. 1 pvp power is > 1 strength after you have a reasonable amount of strength.

lol i went into BG to test and of course got a huge outlier game ( i think normally it is like 6% of my damage) but pretty funny so i'll share:

pvp power affects damage procs also

Good to know.

Finally found a Jewelcrafter for the pvp power gems. Will report back later.

pvp power seems to be bad against strength on a warrior

Depends on the strentgh amount on your toon.

Use this Macro for comparison reasons:

/run print("Hidden PvP Stats:\n","PvP Power Damage:", floor(GetPvpPowerDamage()*100)/100,"%\n", "PvP Power Healing:", floor(GetPvpPowerHealing()*100)/100,"%\n", "Resilience:", floor(GetCombatRatingBonus(16)*100)/100,"%")
