TBC: Melee first priority attribute? Detailed explanation of the "precision" level mechanism in the P2 stage

In the "Burning Crusade" expansion pack of " World of Warcraft ", the overall combat mechanism of the game has been greatly updated. The designer replaced the weapon skills previously known by the players with the new attribute "precision level". In order to better match the advent of the gem setting system, the designer subsequently made standardized changes to the secondary attributes. For example, the percentage of equipment affixes hits became hit levels, and critical strikes became critical strike levels.


TBC precision attribute formula and melee "precision" reaching value

In the TBC expansion, the new attribute "precision level" is the same as the previous weapon skill 308 points, and it also has one A set of accurate values ​​is used to measure the accuracy level (approximately 1 point of "accuracy value" for every 3.94 "accuracy level"), and 1 point of "accuracy value" can reduce the chance of a target being dodged by a player's attack by 0.25%. The simple conversion formula is: 6.5 (BOSS dodge value) ÷ 0.25 (1 point precision value) x 3.94 (precision level conversion) = 102.44, this 102.44 is equivalent to the current version, the melee class does not count anything Equipment, talents, and various precision buffs recommended to reach the precision level value.

The accuracy level of the melee players mentioned above needs to reach 102.44 in order to be immune to the dodge value behind the BOSS. It should be noted that because the early stage of the TBC expansion (such as the current P2 stage) contains " "Accuracy level" equipment is very rare, so it is difficult for many melee players to stack 102.44 as a qualified data line. Then there will be a lot of curiosity of melee friends at this time. Since this attribute is so difficult to pile in the P2 stage, are there other ways to improve besides choosing equipment with "precision level"?

on this point, Blizzard designers considered it a long time ago,In terms of race, "human" and "orc" are passive racially. They will provide accurate value blessings to weapons such as swords, hammers, and axes. For dual-wielding professions, the accuracy of the main and off-hand weapons is calculated independently, such as the orc shaman master With the hand axe and off-hand glove, the main hand is 5 points higher than the off-hand.

In addition to the extra precision level attribute for melee players in races, the talent skills of some professions also include skills that increase the “precision value”, such as the “weapon expert” talent of the thieves profession (which makes you The accuracy value of increased by 10 points). To put it simply, these 10 precision points increase the precision level of 10x3.94=39.4 for thieves players. If the player's rogue race is a human or an orc, and coupled with the talent of the "weapon expert", then the rogue player only needs to stack 43.9 points of precision through other means to reach the target. (Formula: 103 (full accuracy value) -39.4 ("weapon expert" talent) -19.7 (race talent) = 43.9)

In summary, the "accuracy level" is particularly critical for the output quality of melee classes , Although there are only a handful of "precision level" equipment included in the P1 stage, now after the T5 T5 dual books are released in the second stage of TBC, the "Belt of Hundred Deaths" dropped by the BOSS can provide melee players with 25 points of accuracy level. If the melee player’s "precision" attribute is not up to the standard at this time, you may wish to join the team of the group to collect more BIS equipment containing "precision" and become a qualified melee output!
