it's a great weapon for DK tanks.

Commento di Amethyst

With a general lack of expertise as a stat on high level dps plate, it's a great weapon for any melee class able to use it: Deathknights, Paladins, Warriors.

Good replacement for any Tank or DPS (especially DK Tanks) if you're still using Inevitable Defeat 'cause you couldn't get to any of the Ulduar weapons. Inevitable Defeat was best suited for Tanks and seeing as DKs are the only class that ever tanks with a 2Hander, its best suited for DK Tanks.

It's a great weapon for anyone who uses two-handed weapons and needs strength, crit, and expertise in large amounts. If you're a DK, Paladin, or Warrior using Worldcarver to hit your expertise cap here's what you gain upgrading to OEB:

+43 stamina
+9 strength
+69 crit rating
+16 expertise rating
+23.1 DPS (125 max damage)

You lose 70 haste rating.

Oldboot should not have gotten downrated. He's being entirely sarcastic. on the other hand yes this is amazing for dk tanks and any other plate wearing dps class. true, the original OEB was good for hunters but this is different. im a hunter and if i saw another hunter rolling on this over a melee dps/dk i would be horrified to think about what would be done if they were Master looter. case in point : hunters stay away! melee: knock yourselves out!

The big problem is that although most guilds use some form of DKP and it helps keep some people from rolling on less than optimal loot, it doesn't always.

It's also worth noting that wiser DPS in a good guild would let their DK tank get this first because there is a sad lack of DK tanking weapons until ToGC (weapons with Hit or Expertise) and other options for melee DPS and getting a better weapon doesn't help you much if your tank is threat capping you.

This weapon looks way too good to drop off this loot pinata of a boss.

Picked this pretty little number up today on my ret pally, and after i was finished running around making Dr Zoidberg noises, decided to equip it.

I noticed, however, that my crit went down by over 1.5% when I changed from Inevitable Defeat (it was a big upgrade :P). I thought I might have read it wrong so I tried swapping it with Edge of Ruin and got much the same result. So I'm thinking that the crit rating on the weapon is not working correctly.

Am I crazy/noob, or can anyone else confirm that this is a bug?

You're right, you should totally pick the weapon that makes you take more damage but gives more DPS for tanking. I totally see where you DKs are coming from.

Using this sword will "NOT" make you take more damage. The high strength will give parry rating, and the high expertiese will greatly reduce your chance to be parried and thus reduce the boss' haste (even more so if you are a human DK since the racial will bring you up to 15 expertiese from this sword alone). Just as Pyrius stated above this sword is more desirable then Reinforced Thunderstrike for DK tanks. Also note that DK's need high dps weapons as their only move which generates extra single target threat is based on weapon damage.

Commento di 368237

I see how 37 parry rating will give you more avoidance than 89 agility. That doesn't defy the math that's been put into the game or anything. If you're relying on one single piece of gear for expertise you're doing it wrong, and unless you're stacking str/AP (Which it sounds like you guys are >.> ) you won't notice any damage lost on runestrike.

You aren't relying on a single piece of gear for expertiese. If you're getting gear from Trial of the Crusader you'll notice there are a healthy amount of expertiese pieces that, when combined with this sword, will bring you very close to the hard expertiese cap. Death Knights rely on strength and attack power for threat. Without a good amount of attack power you won't be able to keep threat over your raid thats doing 8-9k dps. This is because we only have two moves that generates "a high amount of threat" (aoe and single target and these scale with attack power), while the rest of our moves contribute normalized threat vaules. The moves in the Death Knight tanking rotation are based on weapon damage (the exceptions being icy touch and death coil, also scaling with attack power) meaning we need a high dps weapon that gives a healthy amount of attack power to keep threat. Also note that you will notice a "HUGE" difference in rune strike damage/threat by using a slower higher dps weapon to a faster low dps weapon, the 150% weapon damage and high attack power make a notable difference when using a high dps 2h.

Please keep in mind that Death Knights, in particular, rely on higher dps to maintain threat.

as DK you get:

1880.6 health
309.5 AP
1.50% Crit Chance
12.6 expertise
0.71% parry

+ an hypothetic Stoneskin Gargoyle Runeforge = pwnage for DK tank

No one has mentioned the most obvious thing about it:

It's a giant pirate cutlass!

Now I just gotta work on the Bloodsail Admiral title....

Oh, and it is a flat out superior weapon for any melee 2h DPS class, especially if you are starved for expertise. And as a retribution paladin, I love the fact that it is unsullied with haste or armor penetration....

Ninjas are better.

Dual-wielding these on a human fury warrior would make your expertise orgasmic
I think this is also the current BiS for human fury wars (patch 3.2.2, correct me if I'm wrong)
Edit- I'm probably wrong. DBB is definitely better for orcs and catastrophe is good for humans and dwarves. Is still pretty good.

aWESOME weapon ... I am prot main spec and holy off spec. But I won a roll on it yesterday (out of 10 ppl rolling on it) thinking of dropping holy and going ret just to use this weapon.
Its Bad-ass! One of the best 2 handers out there. Thankfully huntards wont need roll on it.

Commento di 243044

Having gotten this Weapon today on my Ret paladin (enchant Massacre) and comparing it to my previous which had the same enchant and a Bold Cardinal Ruby socketed i see that there is only a 6 attack power difference - However this isn't whats important, what is important is that the massive 103 expertise rating you get from this give you 3.00% less chance to be dodged/blocked/parried etc.
Now go ahead and downrate me -.-

Commento di Nathiest

This drop today and I won the roll for it yeah!, but sadly the master looter decided to ninja the sword. >.<

Death Knight tank priority weapon..if you are dps and take this from a Death knight tank shame on you!

Commento di 138588

Of all four tanking classes, paladins need expertise the least to begin with, because for them only auto-attack, hammer of the righteous and shield of the righteous is affected by it.

For accuracy, paladins should rather invest in hit rating gear because it affects spells as well as melee attacks untill the 16% spell hit is achieved, thus increasing threat and reducing taunt and spell misses. Once the paladin is hit capped they should look into expertise to reduce parry-hasting and deflects which in turn will increase threat and add to mitigation.

It should be said that this is also a great weapon for any melee DPS class and not just tanks.
