combat log of 7590 casts of healing touch rank 1
I started an experiment, but at this time, I am unable to do the parsing so I'm throwing my data up here in case someone else can.
I set myself up to cast Healing Touch (Rank 1) every 3 seconds overnight. Using a text editor to count the number of instances in the combat log here are my initial results:
- Number of times Healing Touch 1 cast: 7590
- Number of times gained Spellsurge: 340
- % of casts which triggered a proc: 4.48%
- Derived Procs Per Minute based on 3 seconds between casts: 0.90 PPM
When I tossed the combat log into a firefox and used the highlight function to highlight occurrences of 'gain Spellsurge', I eyeballed that the proc never occurred less than 30 seconds apart and probably never occurred less than 50 seconds apart (based on the eyeballing the number of HT casts in between procs).
I figure someone else can confirm this in a more methodical way. Tonight I can set up another overnight test with different parameters. I have a few possibilities, but if anyone wants to suggest a good test case, I'll run it and pass on the data again.
