Why? · VerdictBuilt from the item level you set (292) against this drop on Heroic (305), whether it has an effect, and whether your spec can use it. GamGem’s rule of thumb, not a sim: +6 or more is an upgrade, within ±5 a sidegrade, −6 or less a downgrade; any effect asks for a sim.

Why? · EffectThe effect line from Blizzard’s item record. Its numbers are Blizzard’s base-item values at item level 219, a preview level, not a level this item drops at, where the same effect reads differently. Blizzard’s reply holds no scaling data, so none is computed here.

Equip: Your damage has a chance to ignite Lu'selama for 10 sec, granting you 402 Haste. While ablaze, further attacks have a chance to smite your target for an additional 2,525 Radiant damage.

What actually changes?

why?

Why? · StatsBlizzard’s item record prints stats at a preview level that differs between items, so the rows compare how each item SPLITS its secondary rating — the share of each stat — not the raw numbers.

DroppedLu'selama, Light's Justice305 item level

ComparedMaze-roa, Warlord's Fury315 item level

Compared with

Lu'selama, Light's Justice has no secondary stats on Blizzard’s record — its effect is the stat source, so there is no share of secondary rating to compare.

Facts

Primary: StrengthvsStrength / Agility
Effect: EquipvsEquip
Item level, same track: 305vs315

Shares of each item’s secondary rating, from Blizzard’s item records; the raw numbers sit at different preview levels, so they are not compared. Rows that move 20 points or more are lit.

How far can it grow?

why?

Why? · Upgrade trackItem level per rank is the gear page’s track table; every rank costs 20 Mistcrests of the item’s own track. Any 344 drop from the Mythic Coiled Altar or Ula’tek is past the track and upgrades no further; a fully upgraded Hero or Myth weapon, trinket or necklace can take one Ascendant Venomstone upgrade (Method: Hero 321 → 328, Myth 334 → 341; Blizzard prints no number), a 344 cannot.

This item does not drop on Adventurer.

Upgrade-equivalence ruler — drag to Hero 1/6

At 1/6: 305 item level

Out-levels none of the 11 other same-slot items on our board in Season 2 yet.

No upgrade from where it dropped.

Past 6/6: Ten Ascendant Venomstones (since 20 Oct in the Americas, 21 Oct in Europe) raise a fully upgraded Hero or Myth weapon, trinket or necklace once: Hero 321 → 328, Myth 334 → 341 (Method’s guide; Blizzard’s 12.1.5 notes give no number). A Mythic drop at 344 (The Coiled Altar, Ula’tek) is already past that and cannot take a stone (Method).

What does it compete with?

why?

Why? · CompetitionThe season’s other items for the same slot, the same armour and a shared primary stat, at their item level on the same track as this drop. “Different job” means one has an effect and the other does not — our rule.

305 · dropped on Heroic

Its effect makes it a different job from the other two-handed weapons in the Season 2 item list that have none — a sim decides here, not item level.

Where to get it again?

why?

Why? · SourceBoss and instance from Blizzard’s Adventure Guide journal, which publishes no drop rate — so none is invented.

Where evidence disagrees

• Item level says upgrade; its effect may say otherwise — only a sim of your character settles it.
• The Great Vault pays 318 for Heroic bosses — more than the drop itself (305).
