Notice that the article indicates patch 3.0.8 while the current version is 3.3. The amount of haste needed for resto druids to reach 1 second GCD has been shuffled considerably. I've been poking around on this site and I find it likely that much of the information here might be outdated. @Terrorpaw: This information is vastly outdated.

Everyone on the druid forums just touts that with CF and GOTEM you should see 735 haste on your character sheet? Are they just dead wrong?

Is it still current and user friendly? I somehow managed to get up to 740 Haste without trying, and even with scrapping all haste enchants and gems - I am still languishing on 723 :( This is actually really useful – thanks for this!

I actually had a similar idea when the tables came out, and made an excel file calculator, but to slightly different ends. Mine tells you your current GCD based on talents, buffs and haste from gear, as opposed to telling you how much haste you need to get to the 1s GCD. Not sure if this would be useful or helpful, but I've hosted it on google.doc (since I don't know how to write Java apps), and if it IS useful, I don't mind if someone wants to adapt it to be more user friendly. http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=p31vFPVQYwBkkkc--uNe2JA You have to hit edit at the bottom of the page to be able to enter numbers. edit to say that I've used the new numbers in my formulas, since they changed recently-ish Hey, this is really handy.

I just redid the direct healing numbers using 505 as the haste target. Phooey. @Splintered: Hehe, why thank you. :-) Bel: I actually only became aware of the change because a couple of readers and commenters pointed it out. I wish I had more time to follow the EJ forums! @Rawfle: Poor Hunters. T_T @Kirkie: I'm so glad it's useful! The numbers were already published, but I thought it might be helpful to have a generator for the various levels of talent investment others might have made. @Dysmorphia: Good to have some observational confirmation that this is true. :-) @Raaff: I am sure because … it was posted on Elitist Jerks by people who are sure. :-)
