Blight

These are actualy quiet good. The proc rate is ok and it helps out alot. put this with a fiery, icy or some other easy to come by enchant now that the bc is out and you would do good till you get the Ice Barbed Spear.

This can be learned at the trainer.

Meh, I'd say these are quite awful. Blight is ridiculously fast for a 2h weapon, making it a poor choice for warrior attacks such as Whirlwind or Slam. No stats means that the weapon is worthless for hunters too. As for the proc, I could see a use for it in PvP to prevent rogues and druids (the only healer that can't remove diseases) from restealthing, but I dislike DoT weapon procs in PvE due to the crowd control complications they bring. Unless I'm missing something, or unless this happens to be a decent paladin weapon (I wouldn't really know), I don't see a reason for crafting this thing, much less buying one.

It's too fast for a paladin weapon, unfortunately. A paladin weapon needs to be slow because of SoC, which is set to 7 procs per minute.

Whirlwind is normalized tho (acc to wowwiki). So is Mortal strike.. so the only ability that would suffer a bit from the high attackspeed is Slam.

Before normalization, the weapon damage formula was Weapon speed*weapon damage*misc modifiers. After normalization, it's Constant(based on weapon type; 3.3 for 2h)*Weapon damage*misc modifiers. Since weapon damage is based on weapon speed - since weapon dps is pretty much the same from equivalent weapon to weapon - slow weapons still hit harder on instants. So weapon speed still matters; just not as "much" as it were; there are plenty of better weapons out there

I disagree this is a great polearm for hunters my lvl 48 has it and he wips in bgs and instances

I'd totally have to agree with you. It dominates in comparison to s3 arena gear. You'de have to be stupid NOT to get it.

Saw this on a hunter, made me puke.

Yeah its not slow enough for paladins. Ideally you want some thing with a weapons speed of 3 or more. plus no Int, Stam, Agil....nothing. the proc is not that good either. I think its one of of those items that blizz puts here to distract us.

Item does not give bonus feral attack power to druids (see patch 3.0.8 changes). Checked on level 45 druid.

Neither does the ability proc while in feral forms. Picked it up for my level 48 kitty after the 3.0.8 changes simply because I found it relatively cheaply. Slapped on fiery, which seems to proc right about once every five or six attacks once you throw in instants . . . Blight never procs.

From the improvements in 3.1, the proc has significantly increased. So far, for me, it has proc'd in every fight more than once. Include that plus the higher dps, and slower attack speed, you've got yourself amazing weapon for the 40s' bracket.

Unless my eyes are fooling me, stats have changed. Speed is now 3.70, Damage range is 128-193 (43.4 DPS)

No kidding! Checked in game and it's not a lie. Finally an improvement.

Blight Family :(

This is amazing for arms warriors. I just had it proc 3 times in one fight and the crits trigger deep wounds. Here's the screenshot (I was training my weapon skill my warrior doesn't actually suck that badly): [url]http://i47.tinypic.com/30wtpph.png[/url]

I wouldn't call that a "comeback". It was removed from blacksmiths of the appropriate level and given to legion blacksmiths who have no use for the pattern. My 42 blacksmith has the pattern, which requires legion 1 blacksmithing. In her pattern book, under "not learned", the pattern says it is accessible for 300 level blacksmiths.
