Are there any plans to add the LFR trinkets (ilvl 384) to the trinket list?

finnisher · 12/01/11, 12:32 PM

I had a quick question, I looked for it, but I couldnt find the answer, so herer is my question:

I noticed that the "magic' number for haste is about 1999 (i can't remember the exact number) to get the extra tic of immolate. If i reforge my gear to straught mastery I would have about 1850~ haste and 18.something mastery, would it be worth reforging alittle mastery to get the extra haste or just stick with the extra mastery?

I have currently reforged my gear to have about 2009 haste (closest I could get to the 1999 haste mark without being under), but now I only have 17.something mastery. I did some very basic dps tests on the target dummies last night and the extra haste did a few hundred more dos if i remeber correctly. I realize that the numbers will be different in a real fight considering the execution phase. I am very unexperieced in using the simcraft, especially with changing gear and other "extra stuff". Could someone run the sim and let me if it is worth it for me to reforge to the haste level or keep the extra mastery? Thanks in advance.

will this change anything? new hot fixes.

Combustion’s damage over time can now hit critically.
Glyphs
Mages who apply both Glyph of the Monkey and Glyph of the Penguin at the same time will cause the polymorphed target to be randomly transformed into one of the two forms.
Bug Fixes
Living Bomb’s interaction with Impact has been cleaned up, and should no longer sometimes fail to spread Living Bomb to new targets. We hope.
Combustion will now scale correctly with Living Bomb, Pyroblast and Frostfire Bolt, resulting in an increase in Combustion damage.
The reduced effects of Gladiator’s Silk Handguards and Glyph of Arcane Power via the global cooldown should now stack properly.
Living Bomb damage over time is now properly affected by Molten Fury.
Glyph of Invisibility is no longer removed when another temporary speed increase fades.
Portal spells should now all have the same mana cost.

The set bonus.

Thanks for the clarification. And reassurance

Has the rotation changed up since the CS/HS CD changes?

Havent raided DS yet but so far in the dungeons it seems the nerf bat has hit us pretty hard.

Does this mean that Burning Shadowspirit is now the meta gem of choice for restoration Druids?

You can download the sim, check scale factors and plot reforge points for your character and easily answer all of these questions yourself.

Thanks, I was wondering what those features were for.

Edit: Confirmed some minutes ago.

Confirmed this as still working on EU servers. Just did it for 9-10 rogues in my guild.

Can somebody find a link or a Spread sheet for Holy Radiance Haste break points? Much Appreciated!

Eetabeetay · 12/01/11, 4:43 PM

First off, thank you Landsoul for the very quick release of the new version.

This new version however, is valuing haste over mastery for me. Is this correct? I wasn't aware of any changes that would affect the weights of those stats.

Hello

Any update on the formula for DI calculation?

Would be nice.

Thank you.

Hotndeadly · 12/01/11, 9:51 PM

The MH daggers for the legendary qst line are not showing up in the list when you are combat spec.

I am currently looking for a way to sim the exact output the tier13 4piece bonus provides in BiS gear.

What I'm doing atm and seems to be working somewhat fine is just change this line:

head=hood_of_the_faceless_shroud,heroic=1,type=cloth,ilevel=410,quality=epic,stats=1336armor_489int_824sta_370haste_280crit,reforge=crit_hit,gems=burning_shadowspirit_50int_30int,enchant=60int_35crit

Or any other line featuring a setpiece. I just change the name of the item name and it seems to sim only the set bonus because the stats still make it through. From what I can tell the 4piece provides about 1400ish DPS and seems somewhat plausible, the only thing I'm wondering, is there anything I've missed by doing it this way?
