DPS in WotLK?

Posted 09-30-2008 at 10:06 AM by thugthedum
So I'm very used to taking off my tanking set and my shield slam pvp set to get any decent DPS.

Right now on live, a good shield slam set nets me about 900 dps, but devastate spamming with two good weapons can get me to over 1,000 with no problem - and I've put equal work in to both sets.

I won't theory craft here or list my stats on Murmur, but let me just say that in basically premade gear I am doing about 1,500 dps sword and board and about 900 dual wielding with devastate.

Say what?

They have nerfed devastate compared to the 80% dmg it used to be to 50%, they are buffing shield slam. Also the gear at 80 is built for shield slam badassness.

Right now, we have all sorts of stats which give devastate the edge in many categories, in wotlk, you will be doing sword/board for dps if they have done the design correctly.
