ok I'm sorry, but truthfully, Rend is useless in Vanilla - especially against raid bosses with only 8 debuff slots

the damage is pitiful and would take up a needed debuff slot - never mind the fact that it's not even worth the rage needed to do it

Can someone explain debuff slot? Is there a max?

Even if the debuff limit didn't exist, rend would still be worthless in PvE. It's only good to put on a rogue to disable his/her ability to restealth. I guess it's ok for leveling too.

Currently on Nostalrius there are a maximum of 8 debuff slots but once patch 1.7 content becomes available here, the debuff limit will be raised to 16.

For further information on debuffs and their limit, read the following:

Thank you for your reply. What happens when I apply a debuff after 8? which one is rotated to get knocked off?
