TTL 6 Report post Posted May 3, 2017 I would like to see Elysium breathe some life back into the Ironfoe for PvE, for such a low drop rate weapon it's quite a shame that is has to compete against the Dal'Rend set. Rogue Sword Spec gives you a 5% chance per weapon for a double swing, the Dal'Rends has higher top end to buff sinister strike + 50 AP bonus/1% crit. Ironfoe gives you I'm guessing between 6-8% chance per swing to proc a tripple swing, even with this and the lack of top end/ap bonus/1% crit it struggles to compete with Dal'rends. Now I know Ironfoe use to have a 18% proc and was wonky with windfury back in retail that made it incredibly overpowered, I also know Blizzard nerfed it but I really think it's nerfed into being nearly useless for it's rarity. I don't have all the data here but I'm sure people can post it or confirm that it's no amazing weapon over Dal'Rends + sword spec in it's current state. Consider buffing it some to actually make it worth using over sword spec. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pwnana 1 Report post Posted May 3, 2017 Not a good idea. The higher proc chance on Ironfoe would make it too OP. Just leave it to warriors. Rogues have other better and relatively easy to obtain options as you point out. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storfan 24 Report post Posted May 3, 2017 Ironfoe isnt a rogue weapon. For warriors it'll be equal to most MC/BWL epics even with the 5% (Actual, blizzlike proc rate). It's a warrior weapon. Period. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree , the current proc rate for Ironfoe is Blizzlike it should not be changed at all. /Kind regards Killerduki 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it due to flurry and execute? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a beast when it comes to threat/rage generation. 11 minutes ago, TTL said: Mind explaining in detail how this is beneficial for a warrior compared to a combat rogue that do similar DPS in raids? Is it due to flurry and execute? - Mace spec sucks in PvE for rogues. - Warrior damage scales up from rage which in turn scales up damage again. The extra hit procs generate more rage which in turn generate more damage which generate more rage. It's a circular scaling. Add worldbuffs and consumables to this and it becomes a very very VERY powerful warrior weapon. And yes, the procs can indeed proc flurry aswell. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pottu 290 Report post Posted May 11, 2017 We're one of the few places where Ironfoe has its correct proc rate. It's not going to be increased. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
