No way iis that going to make it into the game outa beta chance on hit to do 1k-1.5k O.o thats nuts for a trinket! and holy crap it will work on hunters -.-thats gona get the nerf stick hard core >.<

Comment by FallMonkey

Actually the 100% chance of proc from the link of http://wotlk.wowhead.com/?spell=55747 is roughly right.....for judgement and shield of righteous. It's like paladin-class trinket imo. Definitely a bug and the correct proc rate on melee/ranged attacks is around 2% to 3% according to some simple tests.

Currently paladins could use this to unleash their rage :D, it will proc 2 times in a row from a single judgement .

Will edit if this get fixed in next beta build.

Comment by Barista

I fought 10 lvl 75-76 mobs and it procced only once.

Comment by Mumpley

Pretty nice trinket. One of those items where you can link it in Guild Chat and bloat that you have it.

Comment by Shoat

"Proc Trigger Spell
Proc chance: 25%"

Now that's some <3.

Depending on the internal CD this _green_ Trinket could really be doing good DPS until epic Trinkets from naxx arrive in our inventory.

But, even if it's not, it'll definitely be fun for bursting stuff down, with 25% proc rate it'll proc instantly after engaging combat, and thus will be useful for pvp, for example taking down that nasty Mage Shield.

It can crit too. Very cool.

Comment by imidril

Did some testing with it, and at hit/expertise cap on a servant of Grol in Blasted Lands, it seems to have a 45 second internal cooldown, and its crit chance/damage are based off of spell modifiers, not melee. (150% crit damage)

Its average damage was 1350 and had a 1.3333 PPM rate for about a 30 DPS increase from the trinket.

Comment by Athene

Does it procc off all spells, or just melee and ranged weapons?

Comment by 203974

it seems it got nerfed down to 15% but that isnt much of a problem considering it has an internal CD

Comment by Tro44

Effect is called Argent Fury

Comment by 115953

The spell from this trinket accounts for 5% of my warrior's damage at the moment, according to Recount.

Very good item, worth picking up.

Comment by 205614

For Protection Paladins, this has the potential to be a very nice threat trinket. Because we get a 1.9x multiplier to holy threat and this does holy damage, 30 dps would add up to 57 tps, even better than what you would expect from an Ashtongue trinket over time (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=32489). Plus, since it is likely to go off early in the fight, much like the Tome of Fiery Redemption (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=30447), it will generate some very nice snap aggro if it goes off early in the fight, which it sounds like it's likely to do.

Overall, then, this is a very nice trinket that has some real threat potential. Don't vendor it :).

Comment by Slainer

This is a really nice trinket for mutilate rogues. I got it today and it gives you a good extra burst dmg when killing mobs or players. And since the mutilate spec revolvs a lot around bursting down ppl it really comes in handy.. Loving it :)

Comment by haghala

A warning for Rogues, Pick pocket (and maybe sap) triggers the trinket in current version (3.0.3)

Comment by Dexterious

Now I understand why my pickpocketing gives dmg sometimes :P
They should say the infernal cooldown in details...

Comment by KajiBoulderfist

I replaced the Direbrew AP trinket with this trinket a level 75. While questing, I found this trinket made up between 6.5 and 8% of my total damage done according to Recount. The Horn really shines while leveling. It's built to do big damage in quick fights. The longer the fight, the less valuable it becomes.

Comment by 143990

does not proc of Volley =/

Comment by 57826

As a BM hunter with 2540 AP (lvl 77) and 20% crit chance I kill mobs with 10k hp too fast to find this trinket useful due to it's procc rate.

Comment by lordreign

This is very useful for Deathknights as I've found that its damage is increased alot using an unholy spec as there are quite a few talents that simply increase the overall damage you deal by a certain %. Thanks to Blood Presence, Ebon Plague, Desecration, and possibly Bone Shield the amount of damage dealt increases rather significantly. As a result it occasionally hits for 2k (largest so far being 2338) and can rarely crit for 3k. (It doesn't seem to get our double damage magical crit bonus)

Comment by 12293

Not a bad little trink when it procs!

Comment by 177449

So I was running away from some mobs in Zul'drak and this trinket procced off my http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=12323, the trinket proc crit which procced my http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=12867 lols.

Comment by 257609

I know it says melee attacks, but has anyone noticed this proccing off a warrior's damage shield and/or shield spikes?

Comment by Nathiest

Here it is criting over 2k http://img178.imageshack.us/img178/4383/wowscrnshothoafcrit2kux2.jpg

I have in the past seen it crit over 3k.

Comment by 177780

Highly recommended trinket.
Argent Fury is ~10% of my total DPS as a level 75 BM hunter.

15% crit (1751 AVG)
AVG hit - 1297

And it's "equip and forget" type. No need to activate, watching for cooldowns, thinking abount trinket rotation, etc.

My favourite trinket so far.

Comment by 52647

can proc off feral faerie fire too btw... nice bonus for cat droods

Comment by 120303

A very good trinket, it accounts for about 7% of my UH DK's damage - that's number 4 ahead of Icy Touch and Death Coil!

Comment by jeian7

Bahaha. I threw a snowball at a worgen in Silverpine Forest, and the trinket procced and one-shotted him.

Comment by 269303

80 Marks Hunter

When I was leveling up to 80 it seemed to account for ~7% of my damage.

I just finished Heroic Violet Hold and Recount only showed it accounting for ~3.5% of my damage. I will watch it closely for the next couple of instances, but if it can't maintain at least 5% of my overall damage I am going to have to replace this puppy sadly.

Comment by 174970

:( I sold this on my retri pally thinking the proc would be like 1%,but now i'm really annoyed. i currently have Darkmoon card:Madness and Cannoneer's Fuselighter........(Well,this is gonna be downrated.....) BTW,are my currentt trinkets close to the horn in power?

Comment by 280794

Hehe, this thing does proc off with Snowballs..... time to throw some snowballs at your friends.... >_>

Comment by 293293

I just got this trinket and decided to take it for a spin.
Recount tells me that it has procced 54 times in sample of 435 melee swings, 198 Judgements of Command, 195 Crusader Strikes, 261Seal of Command Procs, 183 Divine Storms and 55 Hammers of Wraths.
The interesting part was that it Critted 33% of the time, which seems very high to me, atleast alot higher than the above mentioned 5%.
It made up 4.8% of my damage done, which means it roughly comes down to a 50 dps increase.
So all in all a nice trinket that I will stick with till a more tasty competitor arrives.

Comment by 72402

Don't have this equipped while farming junkboxes for lockpicking. It will proc of pickpocket and you will exit stealth mode.

Comment by Lashima

In 1,424,407 damage, Argent Fury did 34,390 damage, proccing 24 times on 677 Melee hits, 98 Windfury hits and 176 Stormstrikes.

Putting out 1597 DPS it did 2.7% of that damage. Not very impressive, not surprising either, since it's the green in atm all blue gear.

Edit: Disses on skill 350, so that's positive :)

Comment by Hiromi

I tried using this on my warrior in scholomance and it did not proc on the dark shades, very annoying.

Comment by Kalx

Had this proc with Elune's Candle from the Lunar Festival.

Comment by 318315

I crit 2.7k with it (77 DK ). It totals to 6.0% of my total damage according to Recount. Amazing. 3 Mill Damage too.

Comment by Toothun

Holy Poke can proc this trinket.

Comment by 338514

Does this proc in druid feral forms?

Comment by Toldry

Can proc off Hand of Reckoning.

Comment by 327475

I went through Shadow Labs running someone through and this accounted for about 6% of my damage. I'm an affliction warlock and did not once use my wand. I have since purged my data, but it seems to me like it procs off of spells. 75% ish of my damage in there was from SoC and Shadowflame.

Comment by 200349

This trinket can proc off of a paladin's Hand of Reckoning taunt/ranged pull. What a surprise when, while questing, I went to pull a mob and got an extra 2451 damage from this trinket proc critting!

Comment by 18428

Just ran this on a level 60 testing dummy, just so I didn't miss at all. Over the course of 6525 attacks this proc'ed exactly 200 times (~3.07% chance). These were auto attacks only and over 3 million damage done, this accounted for roughly 8.1% of total damage. Hits ranged from 976 to 1459 with an average of 1229 (Recount). It critted only 3 times for 1465 min, 1897 max. I am a prot warrior so my spell crit on my character sheet says 0% but I guess there is a small chance still. Gonna just let it go over night until I get auto-logged from AFK and will probably update the numbers in the morning.

Comment by gamerunknown

Assuming this hits for 1400 average (if you combine hit and crit) and procs roughly once a minute, this is a dps increase of about 23 while in combat. That's the equivalent of 322 attack power.

I hope to god it was fixed.. how emberassing it was, pulling bosses and wiping the raid..

How embarrassing is it that you are using this trinket while raiding and how bad are your tanks/healers that they cant get control? tisk tisk =/

Comment by MIXTAP3

Right now on my 78 Hunter I have Warsong's Fervor and Scarab of Isanoth. I use both frequently and was wondering if this Horn would be a good pickup.

Comment by 443355

this seems to not proc on cat/dire bear form i tried many many attacks and it didnt proced, as soon as i changed to travel form it proced almost instantly...sucks

Comment by Fantic

Just to put this into some sort of context for any DK thats lvling Unholy.

The Argent Fury proc did 20% more damage than Blood-Caked Blade proc over 1000 hits with 3 dots up at all times @ lvl 74, with average greeen/blues for that lvl.

In other words, pretty damn good.

Comment by dwergwerper

this item is a must-have for any melee/ranged at this lvl, the proc rate is pretty nice, procs often during spikes. playing a hunter myself ive seen how often it can proc during a chimaera shot spike, thats another 1.5k on top of 2k dmg, really nice to have.

Comment by Sleepwalkr50187

For a recent comment, I just leveled a hunter after not playing for over a year. Just a background but I am no theorycrafter, but these are my findings. I used recount for my statistical output like most. I finished my leveling in Zul'Drak at 79. I used this trinket for most of this zone with this reasoning: While killing mobs of my level (hit capped), I found that this trinket was covering 5-6% of my damage as a MM hunter. In list form for most of 70-80 this is what my Recount looked like:
Note: for most of my leveling adventure I killed most mobs in 6-8s with my pet, Jeff, of the raptor family(ferocity) covering 20-25% of my damage.
1.) Auto Shot
2.) Aimed Shot (side note - Chimera and Aimed pulled almost the same)
3.) Chimera Shot
4.) Serpent Sting
5.) Chimera Shot - Serpent (damage done while using chimera with the sting)
6.) Arcane Shot
7.) Horn of Argent Fury

Furthermore, and what I found to be very interesting

8.) Wild Quiver Auto Shot (12% to get an extra attack, an MM talent (3/3 points tier 9)
9.) Piercing Shots (3/3 tier 7)

Note: Because I am OCD I tend to review the data from recount every 500k damage

Based on this alone a equated this trinket to be quite valuable for leveling. As you can see the damage out is more than produce by 6 points in the hunter MM tree.

The big question for theorycrafters is...How many mobs can you kill in two minutes (cooldown of most on use leveling trinkets) to make the other various leveling trinkets (AP/increased AP for 20s) sub par to this. Also ascertained from this data I also believe the proc rate to be around 15% with an internal cooldown of 45s. I did not proc on every mob but usually every other.

Another side note: DO NOT use this for instances or at 80.

If you are a hunter and you are not sure if you should use this or not. It is in my opinion that you should. Enjoy leveling. I'll post again when I level my warrior and I will let you know if it is viable for that class

Also, I will say this again... do not use in instances! This is purely for leveling and I am sure that is what Blizzard intended.

Sickofitall - Executus

Edit: Use for PvP if you are like me and like to sit at 79 for a couple days

Comment by sidelsky18

As an enhance shaman, this trinket made up about 5% of my damage while questing (at about level 75). It's not bad at all, certainly an upgrade from most trinkets.

Comment by Karjavel

Very nice trinket for leveling. I crited 2100 ^^ And hits around like 1200-1300

Comment by StaticLgtBrngr

This item is worth keeping, at 80 I use this alongside Darkmoon Card: Death for dailies and grinding as they do not seem to share a cooldown with each other and frequently proc at the same time.

Can be fun getting 2 crits from these on an opener, instantly killing the average daily mob.

Comment by 649734

Based on what people said about this trinket I decided to start using it, and to be fair it does its job slightly.
According to my Recount Data out 1663258 damage this trinket hit 29 times totalling 47511 damage, The crit chance is roughly 14%, critting just 4 times out of the 29 hits.
It counts towards 3% of my Damage :P

Note: This was tested on a level 75 Retribution Paladin, I'm sure the results would be much more interesting if tested on a rogue or someone with higher haste rating

Comment by 806591

Does this item proc on players? Would be good to know :)

Comment by steppman2

Hold on to this if you ever plan to solo sunwell plateau! It will kill Apocalypse Guards when their shields are up!

Comment by Yarou

This does about 1.4% of my damage as an enhancement shaman at level 74 with full enchanted heirloom gear.
