Heroic Lich King - ICC25 - Shadowmourne Retribution

[@athends]

Hell yeah Surv!

[@Deathrisear97]

I see you arent using cancel aura macro,did something change and we should stop using it?

[@surveillant]

yes there is a bug with shadowmourne proc rate being lower than it should be whenever you have TAJ equipped, which causes cancelaura to be a DPS loss unfortunately. it never got fixed. it's complicated but the short answer is that attacks that proc TAJ swing have some of their shadowmourne procs missing.

[@gastonbustamante4301]

is that mandatory to use the improved HoJ spec on heroic LK?

[@surveillant]

Nope, not mandatory. Just helps if you don't have a lot of consistent non-ret stuns. Plenty of people do without it. But me and Kervee were asked to, so we did. HoJ is the best stun, so it is optimal for stun length, but you give up a lot of damage.

Hail Survgod¡¡¡.... BTW on valkyr phase u switch seals every 13 secs right? so u AOE valkyrs and u keep DOT from SOV on boss , am i right?

[@surveillant]

You don't need to worry about keeping the SoV dot up. It stacks so fast. But if you can, it is good.
