Default What is better for us - UT or TC?

Time Compression or Upbeat Tempo? I always thought UT is better for the lock because of his dots...and TC for me since single nukes do most of the damage...?

I seem to do more damage in a group (like a heroic) with no illy and just a troub giving me UT than with no troub and just an illy giving me TC.

As far as math on it goes - I have no idea and I won't bitch about getting either.

TC is better for wizards, Tempo for warlock/illu/summoner but if u ask me screw the summoners since they are worthless anyway.

UT is better. Does that mean you should get it over a Warlock? No, Warlock gains more DPS than Wizards do from UT.

We always make sure the TC is on me and that UT is on the Illusionist.

As long as I get either of them I'm good tbh. Both are pretty good for us. All depends on who is in your group, I suppose.

With most common gear setups UT is going to be better. The value of TC obviously is impacted by where you are at with cast speed and reuse. Ut will probably put you where you need to be in those areas and add a boost to your dot spells. If no lock is around try ut and it will most likely do better for you than TC. Also they are not magic dps fix-alls, so follow the dps on who gets it.

I pull almost 13% of the raidwide with UT, but I haven't tested the same encounters with TC. Our troub just got UT =s. Slacker
