Commentaire de Leronroll

We have plasma shields, now all we need is a plasma-beam cannon for our shoulders and a personal cloaking device, so we can make growling sounds while hunting members of the opposite faction.

Commentaire de StreamlineProxy

I will likely use this every time it is up, regardless of whether or not I am in combat.

Perpetual magnetic powerbubble? Heck yes!

Commentaire de Furydeath

Can't wait for the PvPer to QQ about this i mean look at nirto boost.

Commentaire de Zachs

The bit about avoidance dropping seems to have been removed, however, this is not without side effect. Looking at the uncategorized spells, we can find this:

Bouclier plasma de masse

which hints to a potential side effect. A little deeper, and we uncover this:

Fiasco-plasma

The text of which is as follows:

Plasma Misfire!
Watch out! Your grounded plasma shield just delivered a painful shock to nearby enemies.
10 seconds remaining

This seems beneficial almost, until we scroll down to the bottom and see what effect it procs:

Choc douloureux

So if you're squishy, this is a very bad eventuality in most PvE situations. If you are a tank..this could actually help, in the right circumstances, or at least not hurt. And I doubt it would do anything negative in PvP for anyone.

Commentaire de Tolki

This belt enchant is the only useful belt tinker (new to Cataclysm, that is) for everything aside from solo PvE play. In that area, the usefulness of this shield or the Cardboard Assassin is debatable.

I think the Nitro Boots or this shield will be the belt tinkers to have for just about anyone.

To use this tinker as frequently as you are able to without monitoring it's cooldown or devoting a keybind to it, you can simply stick the line "/use 6" in a macro relating to one of your abilities. It could be your primary attack or heal, so it is always used when the cooldown is up, or it could be macroed into a defensive ability so you know it will be used when you are taking damage. I would recommend the latter. Your macro could be as simple as this:

#showtooltip ability
/use 6
/use ability

Commentaire de Jaxor

Now where's my Shield Battery? And we need level 3 shields before the zerglings come

Commentaire de Yakobo15

Between this, glove on-use enchant and the new helms, engy is looking very good for tanks atm in cata.

Commentaire de 285102

Now that nitro-boost is a belt tinker, I'll probably stick to that or frag belt.

For dpsing that is.

Commentaire de 598725

For some reason, I learned this by crafting Obsidian Bolts. The bolts were gray for me, and during my mass creation of them, this recipe appeared as learned in my chat log. Interesting to hear how other come across this one...

Commentaire de thxyoutoo

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

Commentaire de Yoda0017

Applied this to my belt today and tried it out and got a rather nasty debuff: increases your chance to be critically hit by 100%. Lasted a few seconds (might have been 10, wasn't looking closely)

That definitely removes this from my list of possible tanking self-enchants. At best I could use it on a pull, and delay the pull if it backfires. The only way I can see it being useful in PvE on longer fights is if the increased crit chance only applies to PvP attackers.

Edit: also, CD is 5 minutes.

Commentaire de 364025

Possible debuffs include (but possibly not limited to):

Plasma Misfire / Painful Shock (taunts everything)
Magnetized! (basically a stun)
Reverse Shield (100% chance for things to critically strike you)

Commentaire de CptQwark

I think some of the debuffs are a little too dangerous. Blizzard really wen't overboard with this one.

I'm fine with being thrown in the air by rockets but not really fond of dying.

Commentaire de Oltanya

This can misfire in raid combat. I totally taunted Maloriak and a pile of Aberrations tonight.

Belt tinkers are clearly no longer meant to be used in raids.

Commentaire de borsko

Really unfortunate its one of those proc to learn things. I've already gotten all the way to lvl 525 engineering and I havn't discovered it yet. I really want it to, seems great for pvp.

Commentaire de 735429

Does anyone know the % chances for the side effects to proc? and does the side-effect proc in addition to or instead of the main proc?

Commentaire de 318192

Can not be used in arena.

Commentaire de 226137

If it's unusable in PvE and it's unusable in Arena and it's barely usable in BG's (I just pwned myself cuz I'm a #@$% engineer), what is it useful for? I don't get it.
These seem designed to be ignored in almost every serious aspect of the game and wow is srs bzns.

Commentaire de Marufrozen

Comparing this to the Cardboard assassin for tanking purposes...

Cardboard assassin can suck up a bad debuff or cause the boss to toss a bad spell it's way. (In baradin hold managed to get him to meteor slash just the assassin.) whereareas the belt is only going to absorb 1-2 hits from a real raid boss.

The belt can get you killed by causing you to be 100% crittable so the belt is pretty worthless if you think about it.

The only advantage the belt has is if the boss is immune to taunts.

Cardboard assassin - 70k hp

Shield - 20k absorption.

So yeah, this belt is almost 100% worthless In my opinion and in some scenarios is actually more harmful than helpful.

Commentaire de 156453

I've used this quite a bit as a hunter in heroics and it's saved my ass multiple times. The debuffs don't seem to have a high chance of happening, I believe it's only happened twice to me so far out of the many times I've used it. I got the magnetized debuff once, I believe I was able to remove it with Master's Call, and then the AoE taunt happened during Setesh and I simply feigned.

Although I can definitely see it cause problems in raids, in 5-mans and where useable in PvP I think it's pretty handy to have.

Commentaire de 172135

Why aren't these things listed under engineering when you chose to see possible enginering recipes?

Commentaire de Sam474

5 minute cooldown (that is what I came here looking for, couldn't find it)

Commentaire de Killgore9998

People seem to be going overboard on the potential backfire issue with this tinker. I've been using it as a main tank since about a week after Cata came out, and only had it backfire once. If you're taking the game so seriously that you consider one wipe every few weeks to completely undermine a tanking cooldown that can absorb up to almost 20k damage, then your priorities are not in order. In short - if you're a tank and you're thinking about getting this, don't let the cries of "omg worthless" and "wtf blizzard!" dissuade you. It's a great addition to any tanking repertoire, and you will garner only increased awe and respect when people /inspect you. When it does fail, it will be at worst a hilarious "lol engineering" moment for your raid.

Commentaire de 367590

WTF is wrong with Blizz. Every tinker they give us is useless for pvp and pve, because of all the horrible OP backfire effects.

Commentaire de Rawne

Well, this is certainly a tinker you do want as a tank, even in raids. What I mean is - In a worst case situation, it's surely worth a shot even though you should never use it generally.

Commentaire de Psychotic

Sounds like it could be useful in PVP if it weren't for the damn debuffs. I was thinking of using it, too. :(

I'll probably still use it for PVP but definitely not in PVE as I don't believe in possibly jeopardising the rest of my group with a wipe-worthy tinker, personally.

Commentaire de wuphonsreach

Just as with the cape (which is slot #15 or the hands which are slot #10), this can be combined with a "/use ##" macro. If you have multiple belts, with different effects it will activate whichever one you are wearing. Which is especially important for times when you have multiple cloaks and need to activate your parachute without swapping cloaks and waiting 30 seconds.

#showtooltip
/use 6

Full list of slot codes for /use macros:

0 Ammo
1 Head
2 Neck
3 Shoulder
4 Shirt
5 Chest
6 Belt/Waist
7 Legs
8 Feet/Boots
9 Wrist/Bracers
10 Gloves
11 Finger 1 (top slot)
12 Finger 2 (bottom slot)
13 Trinket 1 (top slot)
14 Trinket 2 (bottom slot)
15 Back/Cloak
16 Main Hand
17 Off Hand
18 Ranged/Relic
19 Tabard

Commentaire de rosescape

I learned a wonderful lesson about its backfiring today. We're in heroic Blackrock Caverns, on the Ascendant Lord, final boss. He's down to about 10% health, the kiter is doing a great job, we're all in a good position. I feel fancy and pop the belt tinker, looking to absorb the 20k damage. Imagine my disbelief when instead, six mobs from across the room barrel at me! The boss goes down, but so do we. So, whoops: the taunt backfire not only taunts, but outright aggros anything nearby.

Kids, don't be me. Use this belt tinker with caution if there's any chance of pulling extras!

Commentaire de Morzella

As a raiding ranged dps I consider this tinker very useful with careful use. I feel the important rule (with this and anything eles that can backfire) is use it only in situations where without you/your raid will die/are completley screwed without it's use. This way if it dose backfire and wipe the raid/let other people kill you in PvP there really is no difference then if you didn't use it. As an elemental shaman with no real panic buttons, I nice 20k absorb sheild is rather appreciated.

/use 6

is that macro to activate

5 MIN COOLDOWN and 18000 absorbs \\ 23-02-2011

Commentaire de salmar

Sure, there are risks when using this one. But if used at the right place and at the right time, it could be a life saver. Let's say, you are tanking and have only few percents of health left. Would you use it (might save the group or wipe it if debuff proc) or not because of posibility of debuff (and group most likely will wipe)? I'd definately go with the first option. Not sure about the debuff probability since every time I used it, it was without any debuffs.

Commentaire de 486547

This tinker shares a cool down with other tinkers, including Nitro Boots. So if you want to swapping your belts to get the both benefits, that is simply impossible.

Commentaire de Janettie

There could be a situation where the belt will save your life. If it fails, you're dead anyways so it wouldn't matter then. Still, it looks like cardboard assassin is better 99% of the time.

Commentaire de Visko

Question: If you have Anti-Magic Shell active, will it prevent the debuffs from being applied to you in case it backfires? Thinking of macroing it in with AMS just to add a little bit more mitigation whenever possible without having to worry about me killing myself.

Commentaire de xzbbzx

Can we have any confirmation on if the +crit backfiring affects tanks in raid?

(Does the boss actually crit us?)

Commentaire de Whitexx5

What is most likely to happen upon using this enchant.

Commentaire de 940869

Use this if you're low on health and it's not an important fight (Or you have an off-tank). This is a great way to piss off enemies who are very desperate to kill you.

Commentaire de 849660

For a disc specked priest this would be awesome PvP survivability, you'd be the king of shields.

Commentaire de Maruset

Bind this to Icebound Fortitude for DK tanks. Then, you either get the shield, nothing happens(you'll be immune if it tries to stun you) or essentially the IBF gets negated for the purposes of incoming melee.
