Commentaire de Tolki

The Cataclysm-quality Hyperspeed Accelerators for DPS/Healing Engineers. The tinker finds your highest value of intellect, agility, or strength and raises that stat by 480. Tanks get Quickflip Deflection Plates. This tinker is discovered randomly while making Cataclysm Engineering items. If you get the discovery, the game will tell you in your chat log and the recipe will simply show up in your Engineering page.

On average, the gloves will grant 480 int/agi/str * 10 seconds uptime / 60 seconds cooldown = 80 int/agi/str passive, but the values will be even better than that in practice (more on that below).

As of this writing, this tinker is a no-brainer. There are simply no comparable glove tinkers that are useful in all areas of the game, PvE and PvP alike, or as powerful as this one. There might as well not be other glove tinkers. Also, please note that tinkers stack with enchants now so you can get normal enchants on your gloves even with these on them.

It gets better in practice once you consider that, often, you get to use it right when you stop moving and start ripping into a target (or continuing to heal), getting a maximum benefit from the proc at the best time to get it. Sometimes, when the buff is up and you are waiting for the cooldown to expire, you'll be moving anyway, so you got to enjoy the buff when it mattered and not miss it when it didn't (while you move). In laymen's terms, the cooldown system is a win-win. Compare that to static enchants, where any moment you aren't DPSing at your maximum, you are wasting the damage potential of that enchant, which is what makes "burst" enhancements like this so good.

"But Tolki," You whine in a nasally voice as you keyboard turn and gear for arcane resistance, "Clicking on my gloves is hard." Not true, Scrubby McTerrible! There is a very simple macro, which you only need to make once and never edit again as you get new gear, that will let you use and abuse these to their maximum benefit until the next expansion hits! And I'm giving it to you here, because I make it rain!

#showtooltip whatever your primary nuke is
/targetenemy
/use 10
/use whatever your primary nuke is
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

You stick the appropriate spell name where the underlined text is; copy and paste the rest. This macro will also auto-target enemies that are attackable (and not corpses) if you don't already have a target selected, and clear those annoying error messages from the center of your screen. I would recommend you repeat this process with every spell you cast while sitting still and doing optimal damage. For example, making this macro for Incinerate would be smart, but making it for Fel Flame would make you legally obligated to wear a helmet in public.

Note that this "/use 10" trick also works for trinkets you have to activate, /use 13 being the top trinket slot and /use 14 being the bottom, and for your belt tinkers would be /use 6.

And yes, I did make this to make all other posts on this page obsolete and prevent the spread of misinformation. You're welcome.

Does it share cooldowns with trinkets like this PVP Test Spell Power Click Trinket?

Here's a list of the other available glove-tinks(?) coming in Cataclysm:

Commentaire de 707468

Apparently you can't learn this from a trainer, seems to be discovery based much like Alchemy. I just learned this while I was making some Electrified Ether, which was grey to me.

Commentaire de Cryptorchild

Something I noticed, Synapse Springs unlike the other tinkers denote no engineering skill, and don't say you can only put them on your own gloves. Anyone know if these can be enchanted on guild members and still work?

Commentaire de 552057

Where do get it? Trainers do not have it on them :(

Commentaire de thxyoutoo

This can be discovered randomly while crafting other engineering items. You can not learn this ability at a trainer.

Commentaire de kaze950

Disappointing that blizzard would make the best engineering enchant only for casters; the Tazik Shocker is a whopping 42 dps

Why not go with what wrath did and make it haste, so that everyone can benefit? Even crit or mastery would do.

If it ain't broken, don't try and fix it.

Commentaire de 12367

been at 525 for a week now, got there without discovering this and since then I have crafted ~200 goblin feasts and over 1000 obsidium bolts (go go bolt gun spam) and still haven't discovered this. It's the only thing I'm missing and I'm a warlock :(

I spoke with a gm that confirmed that others have discovered it AFTER they got to 525 level. If you're reading this and you're one of them, please post here.

Commentaire de Maerlim

Already spent over 15k and no discovery so far

Commentaire de Bigfig

I too am at 525 and have not learned this tinker. Have created 50+ Electrified Ether and Obsidium bolts.

Commentaire de Basik

To put some questions to rest....

I am max engineering....I maxed out in 1 day, I dont know at exactly what skill level I learned it, but it was in my book for sure before 500 skill. I want to say between 475-500. I was crafting High powered bolt gun and tackle boxes/toolboxes (all orange, when crafted). Hope this helps.

Commentaire de 375993

I posted a screenshot, I learned it at 517-518 making those Spinning Lures. (yellow).

Commentaire de nodoze

Curious if anyone at level 74 and below has been able to "discover" this? On my 70 character I enabled the Cata trial and only did cata recipies from 425 to 450 but didn't find any... I am stuck at max engineering a 450 and while I can keep making cata stuff at 450 and below I can't get any more skill ups in engineering so not sure if I will ever be able to get any of these...

Commentaire de 748501

I recently discovered a bug with this ehancement. I have had my trinket, gloves, and Lifeblood cooldowns all incorporated into one castsequence macro since WotLK. When I replaced Synapse Springs with Hyperspeed Accelerators on the same set of gloves, Mnemiopsis Gloves, and then hit the castsequence macro, it no longer moved to the next cooldown in the sequence, it just continued to show my gloves' cooldown as it refreshed. I am not sure what exactly caused this, but the problem was fixed when I found a new pair of gloves and put Synapse Springs on them; the macro worked as it had previously.

Commentaire de 12367

Fixed today. No blue post, but I discovered it with the first engie item I crafted.

Engineering Tinkers -- bug and subsequent fix

There were 8 engineering tinkers introduced in Cata. Unlike most recipies they are not trained but a random chance to discover while you make any cata engineering item. However there was an issue where if you only knew 7 of the 8 when you hit max skill, you could not learn the 8th tinker.

Last night Blizz hotfixed in a solution:
Engineering
* All eight of the Engineering discoveries are now able to be learned through crafting the Overpowered Chicken Splitter at max-level Engineering.

If you are max engineering and only know 7 of the tinkers, craft this and you should learn the final one. Be wary as it won't teach you anything else if you already know all 8.
If you happen to hit max engineering and don't even know 7 of the 8 (and thereby need more than 1 to learn), crafting this item at max skill teaches you only one of the tinkers, not all of them remaining.

The 8 tinkers are:
Cardboard Assassin
Grounded Plasma Shield
Invisibility Field
Quickflip Deflection Plates
Spinal Healing Injectorp
Synapse Springs
Tazik Shocker
Z50 Mana Gulper

This is confirmed to be working and seems to have a 100% chance to teach you a tinker.

Commentaire de Rorixis

did anyone math out how this compares to synapse springs for regen purposes? ie, stacking this with a divine plea or a shadowfiend + hymn of hope or mana tide or innervate versus increasing the output of a mana pot...

Commentaire de 410777

I created 2x Electrified Ethers and learned it, even tho that it's grey. The bug has been fixed. EU

Synapse Springs now increase Agility, Strength, or Intellect (whichever is highest for the character).

Via Patch 4.0.6 Notes

:D

Commentaire de 248161

can this be used in arena? since it does increase agility/strength in future patch

Commentaire de 602088

Good news for melee dps!

4.0.6 patch notes:
"Synapse Springs now increase Agility, Strength, or Intellect (whichever is highest for the character)".

I also got this off my first handfull of Obsidium Bolts craft since I hit 525 some weeks ago.

Commentaire de 763020

Synapse Springs now increase Agility, Strength, or Intellect (whichever is highest for the character) by 480 for 12 seconds (1 minute cd).

Commentaire de Daegranos

In 4.0.6 this will increase agility, strength or intellect depending on which one is the highest and not just intellect, making it useful for every class.

Commentaire de 762939

Does anyone know if they can activate Synapse Springs and use an On Use trinket? In the same globalCD preferably

Commentaire de 59603

This should be exclusively used during the final exams.

Commentaire de 737683

Happy happy, joy joy! I can finally upgrade my gloves from the (these days) extremely lackluster Wrath haste boost to a VERY nice agility boost on my hunter!

Combined with the sexy new JC-only agility meta gem - Agile Shadowspirit Diamond - I am looking very forward to the next patch.

Commentaire de 125795

This is very similar to the weapon enchant; Enchant Weapon - Power Torrent
480int for 12sec on use with 60sec CD
vs
500int for 12sec proc with 45sec internal CD

I am amazed our engi enchant is almost as powerful as a weapon enchant, I am happy, but still surprised. :-)

Commentaire de Chrome166

For resto druids, using Synapse Springs with Innervate and Replenishment (should be active at all times) will provide 1512 extra mana per Innervate. That's not even counting the extra mana gained through Replenishment if you use Synapse Springs on cooldown.

Compare that to roughly 1750 extra mana per fight from Z50 Mana Gulper.

Commentaire de sawier

4.0.6

Synapse Springs now increase Agility, Strength, or Intellect (whichever is highest for the character). In addition, the effect now lasts 10 seconds, down from 12.

YES!

Commentaire de Dorgen

Dispite what the current tooltip says, it does work as intended. I tested it earlier and got the Agi buff and increase (Hunter).

Commentaire de Rydiak

Still locks out on-use trinkets for 12 seconds, despite only lasting 10 seconds now.

Edit- Spoke with a GM about this. Was advised it was a server-side issue requiring a reset to fix. If your realm has been restarted since the patch went live, this is probably correct at 10 second lock-out now. I will test this and report back.

Edit- As of 12/15/11, this still locks out trinkets for 12 seconds.

Commentaire de 351263

Just got this after making 1 Ether. Was a 451 engineer. Looking at other comments on here it seems as though making Ethers have a pretty good chance to proc the find.

Commentaire de heliconius

The players who think of swapping to engineering, just because they think they can improve their dps just with this item and gain advantage over any other profession;

-The tinker's average dps value is no greater than ~80 agi/str/int, if used each and every time, as soon as it comes off cooldown.

-Keep in mind that you won't practically ever be able to keep the uptime 100% due to facts that it might come off CD in an undesired moment (frequently it will), or you may not notice that it is ready, or you may forget to use it, etc.

-Several other proffessions maintain similar bonus as a passive and static number, like enchanters' ring enchants, or jewelcrafter's gems, etc.

Side note: Engineering dps bonus does not only consist of synapse springs, ofc, you also get an epic helm which is extremely customizable via cogwheels, almost on par with 372 ilvl heroic raid helms(statswise), which I hope they upgrade it as new tiers show up..

Commentaire de 759470

For I don't want you to have to google the proc-id's:

- Strength
- Agility
- Intellect

Commentaire de lopkorv

Id say with this buff, Engineering is the best PVE proffesion, for example 480 agility for 10seconds and 1min CD really do a difference.

Commentaire de 406332

Weird that still, no one, and I repeat NO ONE has made a reference to that Blizzard was called "Silicon and Synapse" when the company was just made by Mike and others. And no, no THAT silicone. The one that makes your computer do stuff.

P.S. Synapse is the alike. It does the same thing, only in your brain.

Commentaire de Bunter

Holy Paladins:

/use
/cast Divine Plea

Now you get 925 (1388 glyphed) more mana from your DP. And in case you're wondering, it'll outdo the Z50 Mana Gulper tinker by a mile and a half.

Commentaire de Farmbuyer

/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/use 10
...stuff...
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

Save yourself some macro space. Run this once each time you login to a character:

/run SLASH_UI_ERRORS_OFF1="/erroff" SLASH_UI_ERRORS_ON1="/erron"

Do not forget the digit "1" before the equals signs. Then the quoted snippet, and all macros like it, become

/erroff
/use 10
...stuff...
/erron

Blizzard made builtin functions to do those same things, but didn't make actual slash command words for them. Once you tell the UI what slash commands to use ("erroff" or replace them with names you prefer) then they work like any other slashy.

Commentaire de 818656

So, I have a 70 twink, and since the maximum engineering for level 70s is 450, is it possible to discover this tinker? I know once you hit 450 you discover 1 tinker, but can you discover more tinkers just from making Electrified Ether and Obsidium Bolts at 450 Engineering?

Commentaire de 72659

Can't test it myself, maybe someone can answer the question:

While synapse springs locks out on-use-trinkets, what happens if you use your trinket before the tinker? No lockout, same lockout, different duration lockout?

Thanks in advance

Commentaire de 209000

After doing some research and looking after the different things, it seems to me that there is a much higher probability (possibly the only way) that you learn this tinker from making electrified ether. I noticed this after I was making a bunch of them and all the tinkers that I learned from making EE were using EE in the recipe. So ya..if you are having trouble, try that out.

Commentaire de 771190

Suggested refinements:

/use 10
/use Divine Plea

Reasoning:

Triggering the device via gear slot number (gloves are 10) will always attempt to use your actual equipped gloves instead of the gloves you were using at the time you wrote the macro. Also, this call will take far less space.
Always call up /use instead of /cast. They're totally equivalent and /use has one fewer character. If these two lines are the whole of the macro, of course, you wouldn't care. But if you wanna get fancy later and start wrapping that core in error notification toggling calls, add a bunch of other off-GCD abilities...255 characters can get real small real quick. Better to develop good habits early.

Commentaire de 771190

One way to drastically increase practical uptime is to replace a few of your bread-and-butter spells with the following macro:

#showtooltip
/use 10
/use YOURSPELLHERE

Gear slot 10 is gloves. This macro will behave just like the replaced spell, except the springs will be triggered nigh-instantly before the spell is called if they're not on CD. Still not a 100% of course, but better. And one less button to worry about in wartime.

The one downside happens when the springs are on CD and you attempt to trigger them. The result is error notification ("It's not ready yet!"). The error text and speech can be avoided (without needing to just shut error notifications down for everything). Wrap any potentially error-causing macros in the following two blocks:

NoiseKilla

/script UIErrorsFrame:UnregisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE")
/run SetCVar("Sound_EnableAllSound",0)

NoiseRefilla

/script UIErrorsFrame:RegisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE")
/run SetCVar("Sound_EnableAllSound",1)

Since character space gets tight, you might want to place them as two separate macros elsewhere and call them via /click. This is a little bit of work, and you might have noticed that although we have saved one actionbar slot, we seem to have consumed two others. But we don't have to remember to click anything now, and we don't need to place those two macros in prime actionbar real estate. And moreover they can be used to wrap numerous other efficiency macros without any additional costs. It's a framework that we've established.

Commentaire de 298330

Just wanna throw in that for "on use" items, I like to add the rule to my macro so that I don't accidentally pop it off outside of combat. As I am playing an assn rogue, I put the use abilities on mutilate - it however, is not my opener so I do not want to pop things pre-combat.

Example:

#showtooltip whatever your primary nuke is
/targetenemy
/use 10
/use whatever your primary nuke is
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

hope I got it right, as I'm going off of memory. I think you get the idea though :)

Thank you for this tip!

I've always been annoyed when I hit my mutilate / synapse springs macro not realising the boss/mob wasn't yet active, only to watch all my agility buff get wasted.

Commentaire de therealchumm

Underrated tank enchant. The extra strength gives you a huge boost in threat.

Commentaire de Interest

Surprised no one mentioned this yet, but Synapse Springs are usable in Arenas.

Enjoy.

Commentaire de Humpmeimapilot

Call me a noob, well cause i am, but are these springs BOP or can i find them in the AH? THNX

Commentaire de inyu

It's a tinker, so you can only apply it to your own items (as engineer).

Commentaire de 125795

The only thing I know is that at 477 engineering I was able to obtain the Grounded Plasma / Invisi field / Quickflip / Tazik tinkers. And after I obtained those(discovered one 75-90% of the time), I didn't get any for 30 crafts of electrified ether / handful of obsidium.
Edit1: At 502 skill I learned Z50 tinker from crafting Obsidium Bolts once.
Edit2: At 520 skill, Spinal healing Injector learned from crafting Obsidium Bolts once.

Commentaire de AnarchyAo

But you can use a item, such as Golemblood Potion and not have it trigger any sort of a cooldown. You may use the Synapse Springs immediately afterwards.

Can tanks use this to increase Stamina?

Can this backfire?

Commentaire de villainae

When I took up engineering on my 70 twink solely for this tinker, I had no idea the ordeal I would have to go through to get this. A level 70 twink can only learn one cataclysm level tinker. ONE. Out of eight. And it's random. If you don't get the one you want... tough luck. GMs can't help you because Blizzard doesn't officially support twinking. You have to unlearn engineering and re-level all the way back. One option is to race/faction change to a gnome so you can learn two extra tinkers and hope one of them is the one you want and then change back, but that'll put you out a good $50+.

If you have a ton of gold to throw around, this will be much easier, but for cash-strapped players like me, it's best to farm the mats yourself (it comes in handy that my main is mining/BS), especially when you get to using cobalt and fel iron. People like to gouge prices on bars, and in my experience cobalt and fel iron are the ones that will cost you the most. Farming these and other mats will save you a couple thousand gold depending on your server. It also helps to look up power leveling guides for engineering to find the quickest and cheapest path to 441, the level at which you first get the chance to learn a tinker.

Although it's an ordeal, the burst damage this provides is beyond comparison. With BiS level 70 gear, this should still be about a 40-50% boost to your main stat (which, if it's agility, will give you a massive crit bonus as well - think 20-30%). That is huge for PvP, and for a rogue... there's no question. This is the best you can get (not to mention engineering provides the only cata-level profession boosts you can get). But be prepared to work your butt off to get it.

So for all you twinks out there looking to grab this tinker, good luck!

Commentaire de 383605

I got it from the first cataclysm recipe I ever made. Made an ether to get from 450 to 451 Engineering, then was immediately able to make this.

Commentaire de 843817

For all you people powerleveling this profession for this glove enchant (or any other tinker), this is NOT a random discovery in it's current state after the bugfix. This is not like alchemy where you create a couple hundreds of potions that are grey and suddenly make a discovery.

Do not make the same mistake as I did...powerleveling Engineering and as soon as you hit 450 starting to crank out either Electrified Ether or Obsidian Bolts. While making the Ethers I discovered 3 tinkers, but got no more skillups after 365. Coincidentally I also did not discover any more tinkers after making about 30 Ethers while it was grey. After that I started with Obsidian Bolts, did about 100 grey crafts but did not discover any tinkers. Cursing Blizzard for bringing this RNG, I continued leveling Engineering. My next craft was one with 5 skillups and immediately discovered a tinker. I did 2 more 5 skillup crafts and there it was..the Synapse Springs tinker.

TL;DR - if you do not get this enchant at 450, continue to skillup Engineering. Do not make low material grey crafts hoping you discover this tinker.

Commentaire de 23477

I can't figure out how to add a reply with the new layout so I'll just post this as a new comment.

To everyone saying to macro this into your main attack: I hope you don't have an on use trinket. Every time you cast you'll be putting your on use trinket on cooldown. For a demo warlock, this is really bad because you need to use your moonwell chalice right before you cast meta.

As a reuslt.. engineering tinkers kind of suck for dps unless your current BiS trinkets are both just equip bonus trinkets.

Commentaire de 673059

Pity that it (like most trinkets) breaks stealth. So you can't macro it into Ambush.

Commentaire de 940869

Note that this does break stealth, so don't try to use it specifically when you're gonna gank 'n' shank.

Commentaire de Weight

you can use synapse and tazik in arena and you are able to get them at lvl 70

As of 4.3.4 this smart macro works well for synapse springs, as the old one listed was not working for me.

Commentaire de jmul545

@anyone with the macros in there comments.

For the best possible use of springs you want it to be bound with
/use 10

yes its easier to bind everything together. is it the best for every situation? no, HELL NO.

Commentaire de 797915

My question is, if I already have 3-4 DoTs going and then hit the Synapse Springs, will it bump up the DoTs DPS or does it only effect spells cast after it has been used?
