STR = Harder dots, harder DC, harder ghoul.

I think 50% arpen is all you really want.

Armor pen is worth more per point then str for blood after 6.2k~ap

So if you have 6.2k AP in a raid with abom's might swap out STR gems with ArP but don't let your AP go lower then 6.2k

The cap is 100% though, So with trinket procs like Grim Toll or Mjolnir Runestone you might cap, I don;t really know if gemming ArP after the trinket cap point is good or bad, I'm kind of a blood n00b.

Ive been a frost lover for months, liked the pace and rythm of the combat when you are frost, but latelly my dps has been going down and down, finally i went blood and now my dps is skyrocketing again, just looking forward to get 1 more tier8.5 piece to get rid of the tier7.5 2 pieces set.

currently my fully unbuffed stats are:
4000 AP
25% crit
9% hit
30% arp

im a bit over on the hit section but im happy on the rest of stats ...

can u advice me to change gems for more arp?
