Message to User:

Since you spent 4 hours testing, I don't have the heart to give you any infraction points for this, so this is just a zero-point warning. But I'm pretty sure you know better.

Comments about why discussion has been dormant aren't helpful. If you want to add something new that's fine.

Dummy tests aren't useful for two reasons. First, you're missing a lot of raid buffs and debuffs, they make more of a difference than you might think. Second, random factors are too big with small sample sizes. To counter these problems, use a simulator. We have two good ones available. Use them to find out what rotation and glyphs are best, not dummy tests or gut feelings.

Also, please don't ask other people what dummy test numbers they achieve. This isn't a helpful comparison because, in addition to the above issues, they will have different gear, reaction time, latency, and skill. All you're doing is opening the door for other people to earn infractions.

And finally don't use "lol" as if it were an actual word.

Original Post:

Hey guys, I am shocked this thread has been dormant for so long. Pardon me if I bring up anything that should be in another thread, these all related to Eye of Purification. Where is everyone?

After 4 hours on a dummy last night (I know, I know...) and many trolls lolling at SP weapon for enhance..

#1 I found a 500-1k dps increase by using this rotation. (21.5k over 6 min)

Core rotation revolves around Unleash elements but LL is prioritized.

Unleash Elements
Lavaburst
Flameshock (Immediately)
Lava Lash
Lightning Bolt
Stormstrike
EarthShock
Wolves

2nd rotation after core

Lava Lash
Unleash Elements
Lavaburst
Flameshock (Immediately)
Lightning Bolt
Stormstrike
Earthshock

#2 Using Glyph of Lightning Bolt instead of Windfury or Flametounge. This seems to be an increase for me, anyone else?

#3 What do you pull on a dummy (I know serious stuff) with Eye of Purification?
