This item can be confusing to most people.. rogues love it for encounters such as Patchwerk where DPS is king and there is no chance you can pull agro off the warriors. Supposidly it causes high agro.

Does anyone know if this stacks with Sunder Armor??

Comment by Thoruss

even tho its a lvl 60 trinket, with all the armor reduction items out now, this might be really useful

Comment by PieceOfSheet

this procs alot. also, for warriors...if you whirlwind, it has a chance to proc on every target you hit with your whirlwind. so you can get 4 procs in 1 whirlwind. ive tried it with only a 2h. will try it duel wielding and see if it can proc all 6 with 1 whirlwind (since ww with dw hits 4 people twice).

Interesting thing about this trinket is that you can use it at the same time with another trinket. As an orc hunter I had some fun in PvP with this at lvl70. AP trinket + this + Blood fury + Bestial Wrath = Havoc :D

suprised nobody commented yet but with ArP rating instead of numbers this is pretty good even at 80 just use this and trink switch at the begining of a fight

Comment by giggitymaster

is this any good for enhancement shammies? i know it wont work on Lava Lash because that is fire damage, and i know it will work on regular melee attacks.....but my question is, Will armor penetration affect Windfury Attack and Stormstrike?

Comment by Kefra

Pre-Cataclysm, using this trinket gave your attacks a chance to increase your armor penetration.

Now that Ret Paladins are less "bursty" with their damage (and have never really had much use for armor pen), this trinket might be worth considering if you're a vanilla level 60 ret twink. (28 crit = 2% at 60, so fully stacked you're looking at a 12% crit buff.)

This used to give an Armor Penetration buff prior to Cataclysm's removal of ArP, allowing you to bypass 200 armor per stack, up to 1200.

At level 60, 28 crit is equal to 2% crit chance, giving you a maximum 12% critical strike when used.
