FFF (For Foofy's fun) - My gear

So... I remember reading that you like watching other people's gear and giving your opinion, feel free to (and any other who wants)

http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/drakkari/Laurind/advanced

notes:
-Why do I reforge Spirit->Haste and then Haste->Spirit, and stuff like that?... went to wowreforge.com, looking for 2005haste and 2000 Spirit, and I got that. If there is something better to do.... let me know
-I bought Bottle of Wishes yesterday just as I logged out, so I can return it and buy other things.
-I have left something like 2kVP to buy other stuff (I don't need any more VP for my Main Spec)
-Trinkets: Can buy Revered FL Trinkets, have Alchemy one in my bags(wich I replaced with bottle of wishes. I'm running FL, so maybe I can get someone from there, if the healers don't want them)
-Power torrent on my weapon, have to do it... won It last night (I also have both caster weapons from Ragnaros, Mace and Staff if you think they are better)
-Moonkin t13 = GG BH, I have other the 2t12resto (normal) to use instead


Am I ok? what would you change/buy?



Thank you

ps: am I the only one that thinks that is someone showing the ass?

As long as you hit the caps you need and hold good stats, there really isn't a problem.....

Enchant your mace D:!

Is that all your resto gear? I just want to make sure before I suggest anything. Mainly because I'm seeing moonkin gear on you.

Yes, that's my resto gear. I have the 378 t12 instead of moonkin 397s(got both 397s from BH) , I thought they would be better, is the 4pt12 that good to stay with them?

The mace, I won it yesterday (today) at 3am, and I have to work, so I couldn't get it enchanted.
Check the "Notes", some explaining of what I can do, and what I have


oh, and thank you for your time

From what I read (which may not be up to date) 4pc t12 heroic is better than 2pc t13 normal/lfr. Supposedly 4pc t13 heroic is the way to go before dropping 4pc t12 heroic. This could be different though, I would love Tangeyn to pop up and confirm or not. :<

I don't have t12Heroic
and as 2t13 is pretty mehh (I think), I prefered "non tier"(off-set) gear

Never liked too much 4t12, does it proc often? (how does it show in recount? as "swiftmend"? think I never saw it if it's not)

4 T12 is listed as "Firebloom" in logs

Beth, confirm or deny..

If you have 4pc heroic t12, you should only switch when you gain 4pc heroic t13?

I think it's probably dependant on the player. I've been running a good bit of progression content using 2 T12/ 2 T13 for the extra mana and have had a lot of success with that set up. I've also played around with 4 T13 (1 Heroic, 2 normal, 1 RF), and honestly, because there is no way to track timeslip it's really hard to evaluate the value of the set, however I've not done poorly with it either.

The extra slots in T13, as well as the stat increase aren't insignificant, and I've really been mana pinched while we were learning new encounters and found the extra mana from running 2/2 extremely helpful for a rejuv heavy healing style. I think if you are finding that you don't have the mana to deal with the incoming damage, it's worthwhile to see how you like a mixed set up. I'd reommend everyone play around with 4 T13, but I don't know that I can difinitively offer the value of timeslip because there is no way to track it.

In the end, I think it really depends on what you are comfortable with. Once you have a good comfort level experiment a bit to see what works well for you - I have done very well with both 2/2 and 4 T13. I don't think I've worn my 4 T12 in some time.

oh, and since we are here... looking at (for example) wowreforge, I had 2000spirit, but ingame, I had like 200 more, do you know why is that?


oh, yes... more info...

there is nearly no way of getting normal tier tokens, we are 6 people with the same token, and some are still wearing LFR ones (like myself on my MS) or missing a part for the 4p... so if I need to go for t13 pieces, it would be LFR ones (btw, I have LFR shoulder token on my bank)

Yeah, I have 1 piece of normal t13 and the other pieces are all lfr.. So I know the feeling. Also, is wowreforge picking up an updated armory?

if you "update" it, yes

Well, then..I dunno.

I just use the wowlite reforge ingame, not the website :<

last time I saw it was updated
omg, got the gloves+pants t12 and missing a TON of haste
but as I'm healing HMorchok, I'll put them back on... and reforge all other stuff

reforge lite is an awesome addon IMO. I've been running 4p T13 and I like it. I'm a lazy healer though so spamming rejuv is just easier than worrying to keep lifebloom up for mana regen with T12. Those 24 second rejuvs really add up.

oh well... now I can't return the trinket.... it's staying forever with me.
I still have something like a bit more than 2k VP to waste.
I was thinking about the Cloak? a Ring?

cloak yes, since there is no upgrade.

Yeah, the cloak is something to pick up.

and... final consensus? 4t12 normal? or "offset" pieces?

anything to add to my reforges/enchants/something?

I would have enchanted 65mastery to gloves and optimized reforging then, but meh (just a detail)

If you have the valor to spend, yeah, go for it.

also, those are his balance gloves, Fichte.

I don't have moonkin offspec :$ I really suck at it, I should try to get better, to have one more range in the group, and waste my 4p feral set :S

The 4p t12 healing bonus is better than offset even with the lack of haste and intellect?

also, swiftmend was hitting for 18k yesterday? isn't that a bit low?

I'm not sure what you are talking about. You can still gain the haste needed for the 4pc to be fine. Just requires a reforge. The int is picked up by firebloom.

As for the swiftmends, was that crit or normal? (Also, ignore my reforging, I am being made to go moonkin for ultra and I'm reforged for it)

Noncrit: my swiftmends hit for around 18.2-18.9k. Critting ranges from 34k-38k.

You also shouldn't be losing a huge amount of int compared to the gaining for the 4pc t12 bonus.

now that I think about it.... it was a noncrit, i was hoping to save someone from cristal explotion and healed him for 18k and felt like a crappy heal... 18k is just fine

I'll get my set back to 4t12 and reforge for it, and get 65 mastery to the gloves.

sorry all the trouble and thank you all for the help.
