3.1 Initial Reactions

Apr 15, 2009 02:56

The big 3.1 patch has arrived folks. Yeah, Ulduar, a dungeon showcasing more items than all BC dungeon epics combined, the long-awaited dual-specs, and a plethora of class mechanic changes. I can't personally say much about Ulduar yet (starting tomorrow), but the new VoA boss probably won't be pug'd for a bit. Dual-spec is just beautiful... I love being able to switch between DPS and tank effortlessly.]

But yeah, DK and Pally changes were interesting. My DK's 32/39 DW spec got shat all over, but understandably so (HB, Gargoyle, and no Necrosis/BCB limitations had it comin'). I'm currently sampling 0/10/61. I'm still trying to get comfortable with it, so only pulling about 4-4.3k dps on bosses atm, I think I can manage more though. Folks in my guild are raving about 10/10/51, but I'm a bit hesitant; we'll see.

I haven't had much time to mess around with my Ret Pally, but my lack of hit/expertise is catching up with me now that CS and DS are going to be scaling high on meters as opposed to judgements.

Finally picked up Fool's Trial, Ring of Invincibility, and Sigil of Awareness (now purchasable with 25 Emblems of Valor). Ulduar will be tomorrow night, let's hope it goes good! Good luck to everyone else progressing!
