Topless is the only way to go. /wink

Sorry I wasn't trying to slut-shame you or anything. I was trying to warn people that really gimmicky builds, such as the full crit build popular in the most recent patches, are most likely not going to be best for the long run, which is something sevenslacks7 said a while ago.

pants are the way to go. Loom shield is better for an FC set and Redbeard for an arms defensive set.

I hear ya, and I'm not talking about specifics anymore. I'm just thinking crit builds are going to be straight garbage in WoD.

Who knows? Maybe it will be even better. Or maybe it will be terrible but you have to focus on the present and not the distant future.

Thanks for pointing this out

did some testing on theramore dummies (pretty sure they have no mitigation) and it does seem that slam damage is normalised and uses this formula instead of the damage listed in the character page

(wepdmg+(3.3*(AP/14))*1.25

(wepdmg being taken straight from the weapon)

I also ticketed a gm to see if I could get any clarification on how it works - we will see how that turns out

ran the slam numbers again using this:

full stre: 874
balanced: 894
full crit: 892

maximum I was able to achieve within the limitations of spell cap was with 18.7 crit and 260 ap which gave 896 (this build Level 20 Human Warrior | WoW World of Warcraft Armory Profiles | Masked Armory)

again due to the assumptions made in calculating the benefits of enrage these numbers are slightly bias towards crit, but with these numbers you should gear more towards crit than a balance of crit and stre

stre still isn't completely useless however and you shouldn't gimp yourself trying to max crit

Out of curiosity, do those numbers include the damage bonus from ms crits?

Awesome, thanks for doing the math.
