Value of Crit (resto)

I’ve read icey veins, and many other guides. Pawn/Mr. Robot suggests Critical strike is heavily favored for Resto. I have started shifting my gear to crit when at all possible. Is there a cap to when this is beneficial over other stats?

Right now I am around 2k crit / 700 everything else. Yet Pawn suggests the 460 I got yesterday with more crit is an upgrade still, swapping yet more other secondary stats for crit.

Is there a point where that doesn’t make sense?

You can sim using stat weights

You can throw one of your logs into https://wowanalyzer.com/ to see how each of the stats has impacted that specific fight and it’ll generate weights for you for the future but there isn’t really a point where you’ll say “ok, too much of this”. Haste is probably the only one that’ll fluctuate because it does have great value that isn’t always seen.

Everything is good though. Vers, Crit, and Mastery all increase throughput. Vers comes with additional DR, Crit comes with additional mana generated through resurgence, and milage with mastery will vary but it can be incredibly strong as well (you won’t see it much in heroic where health pools just don’t drop low). Leech on any peice of gear is also great.

With procs I’m sitting at 76% crit and I’m still waiting for severe 3 to roll out. I think your fine to go with the 460.

Thanks a bunch Talbyy!

I am nowhere near 76%! Even with my R3 Deadly Momentum rolling at 5 stacks I top out around 50%.

I’ll have to try out the analyzer - that’s what I was looking for honestly as the simple sims just do DPS even for healers.

Thanks again for the reply - cheers.
