World of Warcraft Rogue Class Discussion, Mathmatical Modeling, and Other Nonsense. Mutilate, Part 2: Crit Profile. In part 1, Mutilate was evaluated from a lv60 perspective with rosy 30% crit rate and 1540 attack power. So in this post, I am going to investigate how Mutilate will scale at lv70. I will use my mediocre gear as an example. 10% item crit chance. The crit profile of Mutilate will therefore be:. 165/34 = 4.85% naked. 246/34 = 7.24% item agi. 194/22.08 = 8.79% crit rating.

World of Warcraft Rogue Class Discussion, Mathmatical Modeling, and Other Nonsense. Miss Dodge Parry Block Crit Hit = 100%. For example, if I have 30% Crit, 0 Hit and my target has 5% Dodge, 5% Block, 5% Parry, then in ONE DICE roll,. So if the magical Blizzard dice rolled 35, it will be a crit, and so forth. Now what happens in a Coldblood Evis? The Crit chance is increased to 100% but anyone who plays rogue for more than 2 hours knows CB Evis misses like fuck. So here is what happens,.

World of Warcraft Rogue Class Discussion, Mathmatical Modeling, and Other Nonsense. Mutilate, Part 1: Dual Wield Spec vs Opportunity. Mutilate adds 101 damage (rank 4) right on top of your MH and OH damage, does 150% when your target is poisoned, and awards 2 combo points (without SF). To maximize Mutilate damage, a slow offhand must be deployed. Since I am not in Beta, I still have 3 questions about the mechanics of Mutilate. 1 Is Mutilate normalized? 3 Does Mutilate adds more than 3 combo points? BS = ...

World of Warcraft Rogue Class Discussion, Mathmatical Modeling, and Other Nonsense. Over the past few weeks/months/years of rogue forum trolling at work, the question of how Fist/Dagger weapon specialization works have never been directed answered, documented, or even tested, despite the well known fact that Mace/Sword spec will work only if you ahve mace/sword equipped even in offhand only.
