For max weaving hunters, the faster attack speed on KT xbow actually shifts the relative strength of a couple weapons, favoring weapons which delay your max weave rotation less. This table changes very little from phase 5 to phase 6 for normal weavers. Slow 2 handers are far and away better for weaving. We were unable to build a set for which this beat 2 handers at melee weaving with many different combinations of slow mainhands, Windfury on MH, Orc racial, etc. Some hunters floated the idea of weaving with dual-wielded weapons in phase 6 due to the introduction of Consecrated Sharpening Stones. If you happen to have a plethora of weaving weapons and need to know which will pair best with a given ranged weapon for max weaving, consult the sim. Max weaving numbers vary dramatically depending on the speed of the melee weapon used (see the next table). Additionally, these numbers are for normal weaving, not max weaving. Non-BiS sets may be able to make use of these passives.ġ: Melee weaving numbers are relative to weaving with Rhok’delar although the relative DPS increases appear smaller, the absolute DPS of normal melee weaving with any of these weapons is higher than not weaving at all. Head, Shoulders, Chest, Belt, Gloves, Bracers, Boots, LegsĪttempting to itemize BiS sets around using the dwarf or troll weapon skill racials with P6 armor is always a DPS loss due to the abundant hit on T3, ZG enchants, and ranged stat stick weapons. Less Succinctly Current SetĬhest, Belt, Gloves, Bracers, Boots, Legs, rest If you have 3-5 hunters in the raid, switching to 2/8 T3 will boost your personal DPS at the sacrifice of ~10-20 raid DPS from not giving T2 to your other hunters breaking T2 for any 4 pieces of T3 is both a personal and raid DPS increase. Breaking T2 for any 2 pieces of T3 is a personal DPS boost. Some of y’all may be coming into phase 6 wearing 8/8 T2. T3 armor has a DPS boost at 2 and 4 piece set bonus. Head, Shoulders, Chest, Belt, Gloves, Bracers, Boots, Legs.Ideally equip T3 in this order (biggest upgrade -> smallest):.Break 3/8 T2 when you can equip 2 new pieces of T3.If you need to break 8/8 T2, read below.If you have r10 head and shoulders, ideally swap them together for T3 last.If you have r12 gloves, do not get T3 gloves.As such, we’ve simmed all sets with them applied (except WF sims). Our current best knowledge indicates these work for ranged AP as well as melee. Phase 6 introduces Consecrated Sharpening Stones. We’ve put the simmed DPS of top end weave sets with Windfury (WF) in the notes column because melee hits go brrrrt. As such, all sets are simmed with Blessing of Kings. Likewise, Blessing of Kings (and Windfury when weaving) raises the top end DPS of all sets but do not meaningfully change how the sets compare to eachother. Gear upgrades should be compared relative to the pieces and sets they are replacing. DPS numbers are from stable rotations without use of haste effects or active trinkets.Īs these sets are being simmed under pretty contrived settings (100% debuff, pet uptime, etc) the absolute DPS values of each set is fairly meaningless. Weapon calculations assume absolute BiS armor and likewise, armor calculations assume absolutely BiS weapons. Stat weights and dps values are based on Sixx’s DPS sheet and assume full buffs, consumables, and uptime on boss debuffs with 20/31/0 spec. Phase 6 BiS is much simpler than previous phases as T3 is far and away better than most other gear in the game. Please see his list for pre-phase 6 gear lists. The base of this document is ripped directly from Skinnay’s Classic Gear List, modified slightly, and updated to fit our current understanding of hunters in classic.
