hey, noob question, tauren warrior just got my edgies but a little confused when to use them. i am under the impression they are only useful against skull level bosses but i dont know. i see people use them in dungeons. basically asking should i always have them on? should i use them in dungeons like scholo/strat/brs? or only in raids against level 63 mobs?
Using them in raids is a no-brainer, as you’re aware. Classic 5man content isn’t hard enough for it to matter. The major benefit of weapon skill in classic is lowering the impact of glancing blows, which isn’t really a factor against equal enemies.
The huge benefit to weapon skill happens when you gain enough weapon skill to treat a mob +3 levels over you (or ?? boss) as a +2 levels over you by way of +5 weapon skill. Any other benefit pales in comparison.
Because 5 man dungeons don’t have any mobs that are 3 levels above you or boss mobs, the impact of weapon skill is severely lessened. A couple bosses in UBRS are ?? though, so you can equip them for sizable gain there.
