Zitat:Haters Gonna Haste
Posted on January 13, 2015 by Theck

*Tap Tap* Is this thing still on?

I’ve been very busy lately between holidays, preparing for classes, and recovering from the plague. I’ve barely had time to play, let alone write blog posts. In fact, I really don’t have time to write this blog post, but it felt important enough that I made some time. But only enough for a quickie.

By now you’ve probably heard about today’s hotfixes, specifically the three affecting us the most:

Secondary Stats

The Haste stat is now 11.1% more effective. For example, characters at level 100 now receive a 1% increase per 90 Haste (up from 1% per 100 Haste).

Paladin

Protection
Sacred Duty now causes the Paladin to gain 30% (up from 5%) more of the Haste stat from all sources.

Glyphs
Glyph of the Alabaster Shield now increases Shield of the Righteous‘ damage by 3% (down from 10%) per stack.

The third change there is just a DPS nerf, which is probably warranted simply because Alabaster Shield was far and away the best DPS glyph we could use while tanking (Harsh Words is an even larger gain, but not really advisable while tanking anything relevant). Not much point discussing that change further.

The first two are big though. If you’ve been following this blog, you’ll recall what I said in November about why haste was underperforming:

I think the biggest reason haste is weak this expansion is entirely unrelated to class mechanics. It’s actually fairly simple: the rating conversion got nerfed, hard.

….

A simpler fix would be to modify that rating conversion for prot paladins, either directly in the game data or (more likely) indirectly by increasing the rating boost granted by Sacred Duty. If Sacred Duty suddenly increased haste from gear by 30% rather than 5%, haste would be back in business.

In later tests on Maintankadin (with a significant amount of assistance from Ashaton), we determined that even 30% wouldn’t quite be enough on its own. Sacred Duty would need to be around 40% to push haste ahead of mastery under all circumstances.

It seems like Blizzard agreed. Haste must have been underperforming for a lot of classes to warrant an 11.1% buff to the rating conversion. Combining that with a 30% Sacred Duty is effectively the same as a 44.44% Sacred Duty, more than enough to push haste up to be our most preferred stat. So our attunement finally matches the stat we want.
Habe diese skillung gestern im Raid getestet und muss sagen, das Rockt!
Die dps wird durch 'Seraphim' wirklich sehr gut gepushed.
Mann muss allerdings in den 'cooldown' Phasen des Zaubers etwas mehr mit seinen damage reduzierenden casts arbeiten, vorallem wenn dicke Kellen kommen, da durch den wegfall von 'Holy Shield' 15% Blockchance und die Fähigkeit Zauber zu blocken wegfallen.

Unter dem Strich allerdings sehr zu empfehlen!
