Re: Prot pally single target threat

The issue lies with our incomplete toolkit causing scaling issues. With Righteous fury holy damage is a large part of our threat modifier, and we dont have HotR to cause holy damage based on weapon damage or SotR to deal holy damage based on block. The only source of weapon damage to holy damage is...

Re: Some Basics on Group (and Game) Etiquette

a: Unless you have given permission, it is never acceptable to "teach" someone how to play their character I usually approach it like this when i see people doing things completely wrong. "Hey my main is a <class> I was looking at your spec, rotation etc and saw a few things you could change up to ...

Re: Heirlooms on PrimalWoW

Oh I thought you meant their stats would stop scaling at 67, but you could still use them. Not that you couldnt even equip them past 67

Re: Heirlooms on PrimalWoW

This could also help ensure people are a little more geared for heroic dungeons. I've run into a lot of really poorly geared heroic groups now that its only honored required for the key.

Re: Prot pally single target threat

I would be wary about increasing reckoning. Parry hasted attacks are not inconsequential. It looks like you came to the same conclusion I did. We don't do enough holy damage to make RF an effective means of threat scaling. This goes back to us missing HotR/SoR which is the major source of scaling ho...

Re: Prot pally single target threat

Going from t4 to t6 and not seeing any real improvement in damage isnt fun, and is one of the reasons I quit my prot pally. Maybe you quit because you wanted to play a DPS class? No. the main reason I quit was because we're missing nearly our entire threat kit, and the solution was a bandaid RF inc...

Re: Prot pally single target threat

Kara is not representative becos its mainly undead. theoretically speaking with double damage on holy wrath and exorcism if paladin threat still not close to tops of the 3 tanks then they are in trouble IPlease also see Anethesia's test results on PTR above, surprisingly that on aoe abilities palad...

Re: How to increase primal wow server population

problem is if you give something only to new players, old ones would like to receive something too for their loyalty, so rewards should be whole community wide-not just focused on one group.Yes,old players can create new accounts too but i think most of players like their characters on one account ...

Re: Nerfed version of shield of righteousness

What abilities did paladins use in 2.4.3 raiding to make single target threat? That isn't really a valid point. This isn't a 2.4.3 client. In 2.4.3 paladins a niche where we were the only tank class that had an unlimited target aoe which shined in many situations. With Wotlk this is not the case. N...

Re: Nerfed version of shield of righteousness

Buffing RF to compensate for our lack of holy damage seems like a really bad band-aid fix. Its either going to be too much, and threat will be a non issue, or it will need to possibly be buffed in t5, but definitely during t6/sunwell.

Re: Prot pally single target threat

Did some preliminary testing on the ptr on t4-t6 scaling. after looking at my first set of data it is bad. really bad. I'll put together my data and post it up.

Re: Nerfed version of shield of righteousness

If you're off tanking on a fight that you will need to maintain secondary threat you will need shield of righteousness if you see some of the Threat per second some DPS classes can be putting out with the woltk talents trees Im very worried about this point. Without something like SoR there will be...

Re: Prot pally single target threat

Coefficients were changed so that we wouldnt need/want static spellpower on gear with wotlk. We have a talent that gives us spell power from strength, and most of our abilities have AP and SP coefficients together. TBC tier gear had no strength on it at all so we would gain static SP, but lose Stren...
