I will circle around Tanaris and continue doing this. Those mobs have about half the armor and you'll still see 110 SS hits.

Please link all of your gear and stats.

Are you using a level 20 mainhand?

It's really weird to lie about the weapons you are using in this thread



I think we're done here, can a mod please lock the thread.

Yup my level 40 warr grind has been a pain as DW or 2h fury. Max 2h crit around 400 at 40, auto about 175 avg. BAF pulls = near death experience everytime unless mobs are 5 lvls lower than me. Rage is an uncommonly found resource.

Exactly like how it was back in Vanilla retail. Nost. replicates this aspect near perfectly unlike that other beta server where mobs get destroyed at wotlk/cata levels.

P.S. this server has even nailed it on specific mobs that have much lower def/abs/hp like giant skeles in desolace or, more like the Crushridge Brutes in Alterac.

Just for a quick recap



This fucken guy puts on a level 20 mace, forgets it has posion on in his video, and tries to say this server is fucked.

KronoShill Detected.

I've noticed this too and the simple answer is that mobs have different armor.

working as intended.

Exact same thing happens with mobs with high resistances for casters i.e. Elementals, afaik its working fine.

Yep, but we are talking about different things. Against a mob with 0 armor, sinister strike hits for 200. Against a mob with 2200 it hits for 115ish. Against a mob with 4400 armor it hits for 105ish.

I initially chose poor targets to fraps, not realizing there'd be that much of an armor difference, but only out of sheer excitement that i finally hit a mob for more than 105 for the first time in 3 levels. i am now frapsing more mobs as i get a free minute here and there and i will upload that video when i am done.

bottom line: mobs with 2200-2600 armor are taking 43% less damage. mobs with 4400 armor are taking 50% less damage. i have searched for a calculation on how armor mitigation works in vanilla wow but could not find one and i am hardly a theorycrafter anyway. if anyone knows how it works we can put this to rest one way or another.
