Thread: BLM itemization in 5.4 is a problem.

If the lack of spell speed was an issue on the weap, wouldn't it be better to still take the 535 but swap other pieces of gear to have your SS requirement ?

I mean isn't SS a stat that is rather "comfortable with my rotation" so that you may want it pretty high sometimes but not actually maxing the shit out of it like other DPS will do with crit ? So maybe there are pices of body that you didn't choose even with SS but that you would now to compensate ? For instance by taking this accessory or this piece in tomes instead of savage or vice / versa you could reach your desired cap with the 535 weapon ?

I am by no mean an expert BLM, and I know it sucks that the best weap is not actually the sweetest weap, but I know if that happens, I still try and take the max ilvl weap and try to adjust with the other pieces (even if it means leaving a ring in 520 to take both tomes for instance).
