I just leveled my dh via tanking and I started trying the dps builds. I tried using some icy vien builds. I did not enjoy it. The momentum and the lack of a filler spell.
Anyone have a good build without it? Momentum feels so short its a pita to maintain and can get you killed or accidentaly pulls an extra pack of adds in mythic plus from what I’ve experienced. I dont see myself enjoying it.
This is my current build I use for single target or mythic plus and it’s a non momentum build. I have a momentum build also for aoe fights or that I use for a plus sometimes but yeah in certain fights…dungeon or raid it can get you killed because of all the movement.
Single target/mythic plus non momentum build:

As for stats I am currently running at 27% crit 27% haste with 40% mastery and vers phial which brings me to 13% vers and 15% leach… this is usually what I have stat wise with just a vers phial.
Hope it helps.
Thanks I will check it out when I am on my dh! I tried a no momentum build from icy veins. So far its better for me, feels more fluid, since I like to reserve my movement abilities when I need them and not have them part of my rotation. It’s very werid for dh, and I often worry I will kill myself with momentum builds. Also I think I’d need a weak aura to track that momentum buff to maintain it’s uptime. It’s also my first time taking essence break, feels nice. I do miss elysian decree was a good option since fodder is very annoying, it always seems to spawn when everything dies.
Yeah I have had the same issue with fodder…either not having it when needed or spawning when all trash for the aoe pull is dead…as for the weakauras if you go under the premade weakauras in the add on in game you can select spells and make weakauras for them.
Since I never am usually looking at my bars I have weakauras set up for the following spells:
-Immolation aura
-Eye beam cooldowns and the reduction when using Cho’s strike.
-Essence break the spell and then a separate one for the debuff that will show up in the center toward bottom of the screen showing me how much longer debuff is up for
-Interrupt
-The hunt
-And a small for my fury resource
-My meta form buff from either eye beam or meta it self showing me the time remaining in form and the extension I get on it through spending fury as it increases.
I have them set up to only show in combat and with timers on them for their cooldowns and to glow and highlight when rdy to be used again which makes it a lot easier for me to track what is available. These are all small icons the size of the spell bar buttons and can be moved where you need them to help you better manage cooldowns and less looking at bars to see what is rdy and can be used.
I been using icehud for stuff, usually I can check my totems on it for the timers. Guess I’ll learn how to set up weak auras for stuff like this. Momentum feels like such a short buff. Idk why it irks me that I want to play like an ideal build but I just hate doing it. It’s mostly with demonhunter I feel this way : /
you really should dump that haste for more crit and mastery.
anyways
use this, its from the wowhead no movers builds

stack as much crit and mastery as you can. but dont be afraid to continue to practice playing momentum and such. its a good build that pushes havoc beyond what no mover build can offer. you just gotta have situational awareness.
also keep in mind that you dont have to keep momentum up all the time, just for the times your gonna do big damages with your essb windows
