Hi,
I’m an avid hunter and have been since a started playing wow back just before tbc launched.
I just have one question, the Seal of Primordial Shadow has expertise on it, and while I know we can reforge it into something that would better benefit us, are there no other rings out there that are better itemised?
In a word: no.
There are no better itemized rings that come in heroic versions, and the item level outweighs the particular way that Blizzard spent the item budget.
There are only 2 ilvl 410 rings: Signet of Grasping Mouths and Seal of Primordial Shadow. They both have 286 base agility +50 or +60 gemmed.
The next closest is the 397 Emergency Decent Loop with 251 base agility +40 or +50 gemmed since it has a yellow socket. So let’s assume that secondaries are relatively equal (haste, crit, mastery), then the question is:
45 agility vs 59 secondary stats.
45 agility definitely beats out 59 secondary stats.
So as odd as it seems, an expertise ring ends up BiS…
It… just… feels… so… wrong… Hnnnnngn.
