Season 3 Trinket Preview

Season 3 Trinket Preview

Season 2 was big for trinkets. We had an all time great in Rashok’s Molten Heart and some very solid stat sticks in Ominous Chromatic Essence and the special class trinkets. Season 3 is going to feel like a pretty big downgrade as things currently sit to the point where you might even just keep your Rashok’s on. We’ll discuss that closer to release if […]

Season 2 Trinket Preview

Season 2 Trinket Preview

Season 2 offers a very interesting selection of trinkets – particularly in raid. We get three very high item level class trinkets, an update on an old favorite and one of the strongest healing trinkets we’ve seen in years. In Mythic+ the options are a little more strained with the “new” Dragonflight dungeons offering little and the Battle for Azeroth / Legion returning dungeons having […]

Resto Druid Conduits

Resto Druid Conduits

Last updated April 21st for Patch 9.2. Conduits are similar to BFA’s Essences, but much easier to obtain. You can get them at multiple levels and they drop from a variety of content types. Each soulbind tree has a multitude of slots to put them in and they come in three types. Potency, Endurance and Finesse. Niya, for example, has slots for all three early […]

Resto Druid Legendaries 9.1 – Shadowlands

Last Changed: 21 April One of Shadowlands major features is the addition of craftable legendaries using mats pulled from the depths of Torghast. This time around you only get to wear one at a time (plus your covenant legendary through Unity). We discuss each in some detail below. In addition to the Druid legendaries listed we can pick one of several “neutral” legendaries that are […]

Corruption Deep Dive

Corruption Deep Dive

Those looking for corruption vendor recommendations might find the following more up to date as this was written as a PTR preview.   Titanforging is dead. In its place, Corruption. Every season 4 piece of gear you get in 8.3 will have a chance to roll one of eighteen different “corruption affixes”. They range from stat increases to fun cooldown-reduction to huge damage procs. We won’t […]

8.3 Preview: Healer Essence Breakdown

8.3 Preview: Healer Essence Breakdown

Patch 8.3 adds The Formless Void, Unwavering Ward and Spirit of Preservation to our Essences collection along with a minor Essence slot. The rank threes appear to be time-gated in various ways so these might not feature heavily in the opening weeks of the raid but you’ll want to get started on them early. Recommended sets for each of the healing specs covered will be […]

Ny’alotha: Healing Trinkets

Ny’alotha: Healing Trinkets

Healing trinkets in Eternal Palace were a blessing. Jellyweed and Deferred Sentence add incredible healing; Leviathan’s Lure and Aquipotent Nautilus put out excellent DPS and Font of Power was a fantastic stat stick (if a pain to use). We… won’t mention Za’qul’s Portal Key. Ny’alotha adds a lot of new trinkets including a two set with a seemingly massive set bonus. A lot of them are […]

The Juggernaut Lives – Glimmer Paladin in 8.3 (Updated Nov 19)

The Juggernaut Lives – Glimmer Paladin in 8.3 (Updated Nov 19)

Update: On the 19th November Glimmer was nerfed by an additional 12% on top of the target cap. It is discussed below.   Glimmer of Light paladin in the Eternal Palace has been ultra powerful to the point where it quickly overshadowed other specs. We always knew nerfs were coming, but we weren’t sure what form they would take or if they would be significant […]
