No I'm pretty sure you need to be a certain level to advance professions past a certain point.

Which is why I specified gathering professions. I think the other professions are 65, think gathering may be 60.

how good is heroic trauma for shamans vs all 264 weapons? i know it's pretty shit unless you play druid that blankets the raid with rejuv, but does healing stream totem activate it? etc etc

Can anyone confirm this? +60 Stamina from mining or +40 Crit would probably be better than being able to use Bombs (I'm a terrible bomb tosser to begin with).

Also looking at the gear I need about 75% of it is BWL, 24% is AQ40, and 1% is MC, plus I need Exalted with Zandalar. I've seen a couple Duo/Trio BWL movies but all of them seem to cheat with Cloak of Shadows or Battle Rez, does anyone have any experience they can share with me for low manning BWL (assuming you are also carrying along a shitty lvl 60 mage).
Also any experiences for low manning AQ40? I need to kill: Emperor Vek'nilash, C'thun, Lord Kri, and Prophet Skeram.

Looking at the Dalaran trainer Grand master Herbalism requires level 55 and 350 herbalism. Same requirements for skinning.

Nice! thanks.

I recently lvled rogue to 80, and I was wondering if anyone has any tips for basic gearing. I'm mut spec, and it looks like t9 is garbage, should I just go for craftables and whichever pieces of t9 get me hit/exp capped?

Do you use armor potions? You can have an extra 3500 armor for 4 minutes of the fight by using them. Its been a long time since I tanked so I'm not sure how much damage % down they add but its definitly a nice perk.

No point really, I dont think his tank was the issue, since this fight is pretty straigthforward.

If the healer isnt busy getting bounced around the room, he should have no trouble healing that. His hp was probably not topped because one healer was busy getting bounced around the room or something. It's almost always what happen against prince.

After reset we were gonna try it again to see if shit hits the fan again, but for now is sindragosa a really hard hitter? Our group made it to her and put her in phase 3 like.. 6-8 times? each time I hadn't the chance to tank her directly to find out for sure since it only lasted less than a minute if not that.

Also for the pots, they are pretty nice bringing my dmg reduction higher and can hit 72% when I pop one and trinket goes off.

One other question is, should I even focus on raising my dodge in ICC with the 20% debuff? I hadn't found the need yet personally.

[Kaylia]

If you naturally have more than 20%, having more dodges can't hurt. I wouldn't make an all dodge setup just for icc thought, the fight where it would help a lot are a jokes.


Isn't sindra damage mostly magical (frost?). She hit pretty damn hard in the 3rd phase if you let the debuff stack, but the tank rotation should take care of this.

[Norellicus]

I don't get the thought process that says "ICC has a dodge debuff, therefore dodge is useless."

The debuff is there because total avoidance on T9+ gear was getting too high. They could only account for that much dodge by making bosses hit INSANELY hard, so they dropped it 20% across the board to put it more in line with a more steady damage output. Even if you do somehow have less than 20% dodge (you're doinitwrong if you do), plunging your total even further into the negative by avoiding the stat is the dumbest thing you could possibly do for your gearset.

The real battle with sindra starts at P2 (dont know where people gets 3 phases tbh >.>)

[Jodwahh]

More a 1, 1.5 and 2 really.

Air phase is a different phase, hence the three phases.

I've 2boxed a fury war and holy pala through most of it.. did about 7 bosses and stopped because I fucked up and killed both chars. The corpse run back is too fucking long and I was tired. 1 boss that really worried me is the one that puts a curse on you to reduce healing by 75%, so may be better off using a druid healer.

I guess your biggest problem could be finding the people to help you do this. At least that's how it is on my server. No boosting, 80's onry. Lets go get my ledgendary hammer.

I've duo'd MC as disc/ret. He'd just have to bubble out of certain debuffs, or DI me and I'd rez him to clear debuffs off both of us. There's a boss fight with a bunch of adds that heal each other, I had to mana burn all of them to zero. Easy easy

[Tricen]

Pretty sure prot pally and DKs can solo MC

Correct, t9 bonuses suck crap, so don't worry about getting full set and just get what you can to get capped exp, hit capped for poisons, then AP and haste are your next best stats. Try to avoid pieces with a lot of armor pen on them because its as good of a stat for mut as basically every other stat is...but its not totally avoidable of course.
