Dear Skeleton Jack,

Just toke over your cookie-cutter build

” http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#jfVMVh0Icfkf0stZfMbhxc:LIGVMm ”

I was wondering what the BEST rotation fits to this build?

Could you please leave the rotation for me down here or mail it to brouwer.vinnie@gmail.com ? )

Kind regard,
VInnie

Something of note on even on live with rpm the max duration of DRW is 18 secs with it glyphed using the full 130 rp. It should be 24 secs with glyph and rpm (cost 40 so 130-40=90/10=9) base time 10s +9s from extra rp +5 from glyph) however it never comes up as higher than 18s basically with the new changes from 3.2 it will max at 17s so 1s lost

Now I threw in that random thing in frost..but it was just because i thought it was the only thing available to increase max blood dps..Would putting points in necrosis be worth even doing? also why no blood caked strike…its going to be multiplied by your weapon speed…so get a slow as weapon with little haste and you got a nice talent..

The HS/UB build is not dead, however with the buff to DRW I don’t think the two specs will be as close to each other as they are atm. It will be viable, but it “appears” that the distance is growing some. As always, PTR stuff is up in the air.

So the Blood heart Strike/UB Build is Dead now ? i’ve been using it for a long time now, Im gonna have to redo my blood spec to DRW if it really has that much of a dps bonus, also I will try and work out a rotation on the PTR and comment it on here

I’ve been testing on the PTR for a while now and I have to say that I like the new UB. I’m interested to see if UB will be better than DRW when 3.2 goes live. I’m hoping you’ll make a post concerning DW DPS as well Jack.

Blood is not as far behind Unholy as you imply Pheo. In fact it does extremely well in many of the fights, able to beat out Unholy unless there are a lot of adds.

Blood was strong to begin with. The nerfs and penalties imposed on the other specs seem all to be PvP oriented, with bandaids slapped on to hopefully keep them balanced for PvE. As usual, one side of the coin messes up the other side of the coin. Part of the penalty for playing a PvE/PvP focused game.
