Today I was completing the gear process of my Troll Elemental Shaman, level 61.
According to Icy-Veins, Mastery and Haste are her secondary best stats.
However after placing a mastery enchant on her ring I noticed she went from 99% Mastery to 100%.
I read that in this expansion, going past 30% secondary stats is not a good thing since you get less benefits from it.
Should I change her build and focus more in other secondary stats like Haste ?
I was thinking on posting this on the Shaman section, but I have this problem (not as bad) across several characters like my Orc Affliction Warlock (Too much mastery).
Mastery is different between classes. Mistweaver goes well above 100%, while another class might struggle getting to 20%, don’t mind mastery that much
Also there was an addon called true stat values in shadowlands, not sure if it was updated for 10.0 and later as i nuked my addon folder. Anyway, it basically showed you your stats and how much do you lose above 30%. That being said, that’s how it worked:
From 0 to 30%, there’s no penalty.
From 30% to 39%, there’s a 10% penalty. (Penalty is on points past 30%, everything under is safe. If 1000 is 30%, you have 1027 out of 1030 for example)
From 39% to 47%, there’s a 20% penalty.
From 47% to 54%, there’s a 30% penalty.
From 54% to 66%, there’s a 40% penalty.
From 66% to 126%, there’s a 50% penalty.
Honestly even then there are benefits to getting a stat like, say, versatility(depends on the class!) to 30+%, so don’t be afraid
