Generally a good trinket, but where it really shines is in bossfights. I have a deep fire build, with decent crit gear I achieve 34% critrate with my fire spells, throw in a Moonkin, and you'll land a hefty 39%. While I don't think it procs when it's already up (doesn't renew or stack it seems), this huge amount of crit ensures that you'll be pumping out insane damage on that boss. Which is why you're there :)

im in love with this trinket. it procs ALOT and currently it lasts for 15sec and not 10sec as stated in the description

i use it with http://www.wowhead.com/?item=28785 and both are a huge DPS boost!

I actually have a question.

As this looks like a VERY good trinket, is it an Heroic-mode drop?

Комментарий от nymbia

Appears to be, as posted above, a 35% proc rate. It cannot refresh or stack, and it appears to have an approximately 30 second cooldown between procs.

In other words, if you proc it, no matter how much you crit in the next 30 seconds, you won't proc it again.

Effect lasts 15 seconds despite what the description says.

Комментарий от Phaleux

Since someone modded down my comment for no reason I will say it again -- this trinket does not proc off of VE heals. For a shadow priest this will only proc on mind blast and SW:D.

Комментарий от perunaion

Moonkins' with their crit-based design will certainly love this. Unfortunate it doesn't have a very high drop rate.

Комментарий от Fresh

It does proc on icelance, any aoe, even frostnova.

Комментарий от 31095

Anyone notice lower proc% or maybe higher time between procs since patch?

Комментарий от 31095

Proc down to 20% from 35%.

Комментарий от Anandrien

yeah the nerf was pretty huge on this.. still good ... but the duration is now 15 seconds instead of 10 to compensatve for the 15% lower proc rate..

Комментарий от zagi

Just some information :

30% spell crit rate = 6% chance to procc on a normal specc-cast. (17casts per procc)
20% spell crit rate = 4% chance to procc on a normal specc-cast. (25casts per procc)
10% spell crit rate = 2% chance to procc on a normal specc-cast. (50casts per procc)

Mages :
Frostbolt : 2.5sec cast = 24 casts per minute
Scorch : 1.5sec cast = 40casts per minute
Fireball : 3sec cast = 20casts per minute

Warlocks :
Searing Pain : 1.5sec cast = 40casts per minute.
Shadowbolt : 2.5sec cast = 24casts per minute.
Incinerate : 2.5sec cast = 24casts per minute.

Shamans :
Lightning Bolt : 2sec cast = 30casts per minute

Druids :
Wrath : 1.5sec cast = 40casts per minute

This proc'd when I crit heal from my Healthstone.

Unfortunately it doesn't proc from my Shadowmend (Shadow's Embrace set bonus) crit heals.

Комментарий от 14097

I would like this even on my pally. Both healing and DPS would be nice for a Holy Pally doing automatic HS crits.

Of course I would defer to the clothies before taking it.

I love how they nerf items like this simply to make other epics look that much better:

Fantastic Holy Paladin trinket.

Combined with Xi'ri's Gift, that's 64 spell crit rating on trinket slots alone which adds up to slightly under 3% spell crit.

Комментарий от 41197

Got it for some few days on my shadow priest, must say that i think its really sucks for a shadow priest much more better for a mage, or a warlock..

Комментарий от 44554

Just one question: does this trinket has an internal cooldown, as the Sextant of Unstable currents (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=30626) does?

p.e. It is mentioned there, just thought that 1 i wanna b sure and 2 it should be mentioned here

Комментарий от 38320

I got this item over the weekend, and it's amazingly good.

One observation: No one here (unless I missed it) has mentioned how it actually lasts for 15secs, rather than the listed 10secs. That discrepancy makes a huge difference in the overall viability of the item.

EDIT: I looked closer and 'btl2' above does in fact mention this. My bad.

Комментарий от 31363

Wowhead.com says this item was changed in the patch, but I'm not seeing it... Mine still has +30 crit.

Комментарий от 3465

Theoretically, if you could get this thing to proc, EVERY TIME perfectly on its 45 sec internal cooldown with it lasting 15 seconds - it would be equal to adding approx 80+dmg. However getting it to proc is the tricky part on a 20% proc (on crit).

If you conservatively estimate approx 90 seconds, (say you were unlucky and didn't get a crit until the very end of where statistics say you would be guaranteed one), its still = to approx 40+dmg. So based on your luck this thing is netting you anywhere between 40+dmg and 80+dmg over the course of a sustained fight.

Estimations given on an approx 30% crit rate - either way, if you do the math with a 15 sec duration and a 45 sec internal cooldown, this trinket is miles ahead of others. (For comparison most 2 min/90 sec CD trinks giving you 150+ dmg for 15 seconds come out to roughly 31.25+dmg sustained.)

And these estimations are basically just converting procs, to roughly what spell dmg it would be equivilent to if it were just plain ol' spell damage. Of course for things like PvP, where you need short bursts of a lot of damage, activated trinkets are better, but this was put here for those interested in using it for PvE purposes. (Karazhan, extended boss fights that last 5 mins or more, etc)

I just had the trinket double proc on me. I have no idea how it happened with the internal cooldown, but they clearly stacked, because my next fireball hit for 3.2k.

Will do further testing to attempt to replicate the double proc.

Комментарий от 1015

Rumor is the effect has been corrected to a 10 second proc. Previously it was bugged to last 15 seconds, contrary to the tooltip, which stated 10 seconds.

Комментарий от RobMelendez

I was going to be on Seed duty for Illihoof tonight and I decided to see if this trinket procced off Seed of Corruption crits and have determined it does not. Not a single proc the whole fight.

Комментарий от Irulan

I just got outrolled by a guildie paladin on heroic on this, first time I've felt shit after a loot drop in TBC (I'm a fire mage).

Комментарий от Hockfather

I know that probability is a bitch, but I ran Arcatraz 25 times and I finally got my damned trinket for my elemental shaman. So now I have the Lightning Capacitor and Shiffar's Nexus Horn! :D

Комментарий от elunora

It doesnt proc of healing spells (druid ones at least)

Комментарий от Flyv

The 2.3 patch notes suggest this item was bugged before, and is now fixed:
- Shiffar's Nexus Horn: Many spells and abilities can now trigger this item that were unable to before.

Комментарий от 102945

Here is how the cast sequence looks for my moonkin druid.
Moonfire (Instant) 35ish% critchance
1.5 second wait
Insect Swarm (Instant) No Crits
1.5 second wait
Starfire (3.5sec with no talents, 3sec for me, 2.5sec if last spell crit.) 29ish% critchance
Starfire
Wrath (2.0sec, 1.5 for me) 29ish% critchance
Check mana (Drink pot, Use Demonic Rune, or Innerv if neccesary)
Loop

That's 12 seconds, 5 crittable spells at 30ish% chance each. Should be that I get about 3 crits every two rounds of this, and with the estimated 30% chance on each crit to proc my nexus horn (Thottbot said so.) That comes out to what?... one proc every 10 rounds or so? 10x12=120seconds or two minutes. Yeah. That feels about like how it's been happening. So then during that two minutes I get 10 seconds of 225 spell damage. Or I could get a glowing crystal insignia and pop it twice in that time for 40 seconds total of 104 spell damage. That's the same as having 10 seconds of 436 spell damage. So yeah...This is not all that good a proc.

Комментарий от 48892

I guess for a paladin, if you're spamming FoL every 1,5 seconds with 20% crit chance on FoL, you're going to see 1 crit every 7,5 seconds. With a proc chance of 20%, it'll proc 1x every 5 crits, or 1x every 37,5 seconds.

10,0 seconds : 6x FoL * 1225 healing
27,5 seconds : 19x FoL * 1000 healing
== ~1054 healing

Assuming you continue spamming FoL, it's going to come down to ~54 bonus healing. Not bad, but nothing to write home about. And with all "proc" trinkets, you could get 3 procs in a row which overwrite each other, followed by 0 procs for 60 seconds...

I use this on my holy preist. it procs very often for me with only 15% crit. i love it. however a warlock accused me of ninja ing it when we both clicked need..

I had a ret paladin in my group take this away from the mage. When I told him there's much better Attack Power trinkets for a paladin he goes "shockadin youtube & learn".

Holy shock is a Holy Talent.

I don't care how much spell power a ret paladin needs. You should never roll on an item that's clearly for a caster. There are so many better Attack Power, Agility, Hit, Crit whatever for a melee caster.

Hourglass of the Unraveller dropped in Black Morass 30 minutes later.

In WOD,FMage have 25% crit base,with a twink 70 i have 40%.40% + 25% = 65%,that trinket its too good for FMage.Each 45 seconds(that is, 35s after the 10s duration is up) 1 proc. Астральный рог Шиффара and Секстан Ненадежных Течений the best by far comb of trinkets for FMage.
