sorry Eleazer i think this link will work now
Armoury
Don't know why it wasn't working before =S
So yea thanks for last reply btw, but if it's only 1% so in say a 4k dps fight there would only be an increase of 40dps? I don't have much knowledge of the games actual mechanics so please feel free to openly slate me =P
As for my gear i have gemmed for straight HIT just to reach the 11% cap, some gems and enchants arn't the best i can have atm due to not having much g as job restrictions limit playing time atm so im only on for raids
From reading the above posts im now wondering if it was a waste of time gemming hit / str, as during last nights uld raid i was still missing around 15 - 16% of the time even with the higher hit.
your doing a fantastic job on the thread keep it up im inexperienced in frost but ask me anyting about unholy and il answer lol

@zzeuss - Never gem for critical strike. It's pointless the amount of dps loss from gemming critical strike over strength is pretty ridiculous. Get the better meta gem, the one you have is a large loss of dps. The difference between Subversion and BcB's dps depends on the amount of haste/hit/time on the boss. The longer the fight = the larger the difference. The dps difference would be around 40-100 dps lost in a fight. So the longer the fight the larger the loss of damage done.
@biohazzard - More hit =more necrosis and BcB hits. Generally it's not advised to go past the spell hit rating as it only effects Melee/Necro/BcB. I raid with 196 hit rating and miss around 17-18 percent of the time on melee in ToC 10.

Yeah i will change the crit gem, however the meta gem which i had before u need to have 2 blue gems in your gear to become active do you not?
So if i gem 2 blue gems i would be losing dps also? or am i talking rubbish lol

Zzeuss - look at the first page of the gem. Read what I wrote on it. Use purple gems to fulfill the blue gem requirment.

Yeah, and we all know ret pallies know how to gear. harlon - 21 agility is not in any manner a good way to gem. 21 agility is less crit than 21 crit, and since we don't gain AP from agility it's just an awful way to go.We are not rogues/enhance shamans/or druids so gemming agility is just bad.

10str + 21 agi> 21 crit imo.
with BoK= ~11 str+23 agi> 21 crit
that also does not include alot of the talents increasing str.
