I came into p5 with hope and expectations that since hand of ragnaros was slightly modified for druids that they would mod Thunderfury in response to all of the class changes. I am incredibly disappointed. After spending 7000g, alot of sims and uses of the sword on weak one on my BIS fury war… are incredibly… bad, trash even. The sword is clearly BIS for Rogue or hunter.
Let me know your thoughts on if they should give an option for a slower version of Thunderfury like they later changed the weapons in ST, Or if it should only be a tank sword. I’m curious on what the community thinks, for I think its waste of my gold and time.
tbf they said they werent going to change it at the beginning of last phase. not like it was a surprise
Legendary weapons are not so legendary now it seems.

im going to report some kind of rant every couple days until they adjust this… INSANE
How do you think those Paladins that crafted HoR and blzzards releases another legendary weapon for them in this phase that is better. lol
Or you could just stick to one thread and express your frustration there.
Making multiples of the same thread is called spamming. Sharing because surely you’re completely new to the forums and have never posted before.
You mean the conjured weapon that only exists inside a class quest instance and disappears when exiting? That’s not a “new legendary”.
No, the lightbringer one? I havent researched it. Is that the one ur talking about?
Just looked it up. Its called Hammer of the Lightbringer.
it’s not in the game bud, it looked like it was going to be for some dungeon or event called “The Burning of Andorhal” as a weapon only existing in instanced content

Thunderfury is a tanking weapon due to its proc and the threat generation behind it. I would never expect it to be a top tier DPS weapon. It just happens to be for rogues now due to their changes within SoD. It wasn’t even a great DPS weapon for them in Vanilla classic. You were pretty much a liability if you were trying to DPS with it.

you’ve been huffing the tank copium psyop for so long you have no idea what you’re talking about.
The original version of thunderfury procced so many times it was leagues above any other weapon
Classicroguecraft states these are the highest dps combos in the game for rogue in naxx
- Gressil + Iblis = 1680.74 dps
- Gressil + The Hungering Cold = 1679.80 dps
- Gressil + TF = 1670.47 dps
Thunderfury in OH, a weapon from MC, being 10 dps behind the best OH in game is incredible.
I guess I’ll have to get HoR on my pally now. =)

dewit man
better yet come dip your toes in retail, the water’s fine 
It’s a tank item. Not a DPS item. It is still excellent for tanks.
If I had one, I’d use it forever - the fact that it saves you from using global cooldowns on Thunderclap is invaluable.
No gracias. Retail is not for me. Im in an MC now on my pally… wish me LUCK!
I hope you get all ret drops (I know you’re holy) 
feel the power
I got pants/boots. Lost the roll on SR. =(
Debating if I should pick up SH. Only 999g on the AH.
the white dmg is awful, and please gtfo out of here that saving a GCD is “legendary” worthy. No. Just no.
61 DPS weapon… higher than everything except Crul
And yes, saving a GCD gives you more threat when it matters (early in the pull). You no longer have to choose between threat and mitigation. You get both.
Hand of Rag is very legendary in the paws of a bear druid. The weapon damage has insane scaling because of Lacerate.
