Kahorie's DK simulator 2.0 Beta - Including Cataclysm. - Page 50

I posted about this issue a page back, and the issue is still occurring. I keep getting values for hit that are strange:

EP SpellHitRating | 0.68
After spell hit cap | 0.97

I've reset the RNG seed a few times. Something is not right; I should not be consistently getting values where hit AFTER spell cap is worth more.

Also, I'm trying to figure out a sweet spot for expertise in my current gear and the sim is not giving me proper info. I am at 23 expertise (orc with axes, 5 from talents, 109 expertise rating) and when I run the sim I never get any misses. I thought this was curious so I manually set my expertise rating to 132 and my dps was exactly the same. Resetting the RNG Seed did nothing. Maybe I am doing something wrong but any assistance would be appreciated, thanks.

hmm I ran it again, and this time looked at number of hits, as you did. I see 34% more attacks with the 'melee haste' raid buff on; I'd expect 25% more. This is Frost presence, Frost 2H spec. Neither spec had IITalons.

Surely that's not right? Perhaps I've had the wrong understanding of the theory of haste (being a tank, not dpser, maybe so!), but I thought 25% haste meant 25% more melee attacks in the same period, whereas this is showing 34% and I can't think of any reason why. The only change was the 'melee haste' raid buff setting.

I looked at the total number of hits in the 100 hr sim (200ms latency). Results:

No haste		#attacks
rs		46400	
mainhand	49108	


haste	% more than no haste
rs		48119	    103.70%
mh		65830	    134.05%

Images below so you can verify where I'm getting the data:

rs		48119	    103.70%
mh		65830	    134.05%

Sum of MH+RS no haste: 95508
Sum of MH+RS with haste: 113949

113949 / 95508 = 1,193083301922352

Here is the 20% buff.

I have the same issue. From my limited tests, setting "Main Hand Expertise" to anything other than zero causes all attacks to never be dodged, even with zero expertise stats.

Here is a sample output with main hand expertise racial set to 1 and expertise rating set to 0.

Another unrelated bug that I haven't tried to reproduce, but the Ashen Band of Endless Vengeance seems to randomly disable itself when I save characters.

This seems to occur when you first open the program; editing a character seems to cause the Ashen Band of Endless Vengeance to uncheck itself.

I have found the problem with racial expertise and spell hit. Thanks for the reports guys. I want to let you know that when I don't answer to message it's because I have nothing to say (good or bad news). I will try to deliver an update this afternoon if time permits it.

doh! Of course, oh man I feel stupid. Thanks.

I've implemented Shadowmourne just for fun (It's not like you'd need the sim at that point anymore

). I hope I got everything right. I've set the proc rate at 60%.
The proc alone is worth about 840 dps for Unholy and a little bit more for Blood. Bryntroll heroic proc is worth 480 dps as a reference.
Haste is quite the nice stat with the proc, better than crit.

It seems Tattashe's armory grabber creates xml with +5 racial expertise for human characters.

Other than racial expertise and spell hit problem in 1.2.0.6 i see that EP armor value converts (Armor value x 1000) into Guild0x.

For example if the sim gives you 0.028 armor value, it will apper as 28 in guild0x.

Grabber has been fixed to only give +3 expertise for humans. Along with other fixes which should be up later tonight.

Racial expertise is correct for humans now. But i forgot to mention that grabber uses talent-modified base stats. It should use base stats without talent effects. For example you can check your character's base stats without talent effects on wowhead profiler. Just you should reset talents there.

It would be good to have a fix for this because without true base stats sim will generate wrong calculation.

Hey everyone, I've been running some sims with the latest version(1.2.0.6) and my reports are continuing to show the Magical portion of Scourge Strike as being able to crit still. Noticed a report earlier in the thread that had 0% crit for the magical portion and some reports that are critting.

Anyone know what might be causing this?

I have noticed that too. It looks magical part of scourge strike crits in this version.

* Racial Expertise correction.
* Spell Hit EP value correction.
* Shadowmourne and Bryntroll heroic procs.
* EP Calculation/ Talent Value in Frost Presence are made againts TPS and not DPS.
* Rune strike is no more considered as a White hit.
* Sigil of Hanged Man.
* When you "save as new" it's automaticaly selected.

Kahorie's DK Simulator 1.2.0.7

Regarding the SS crit:

1.2.0.1 Release notes
* Magical Scourge strike appears as crit if original strike is crit.

Bryntroll no longer procs from debuff application. The sim is currently showing pre-patch numbers.

Last weeks log(pre-patch)
The fight had 28 total drain life procs. Quick match shows that without a doubt it would proc off debuff application pre-patch.(already known)

157 possible procs w/o debuffs (157x.11) 17.3 actual procs
232 possible procs w/ debuffs (232x.11) 25.5 actual procs

This weeks log(post-patch)
Post patch, the numbers are quite different with 18 total procs.

176 possible procs w/o debuffs (176x.11) 19.3 actual procs
~248 possible procs w/ debuffs (232x.11) 27.3 actual procs
(wol seemed bugged on FF applications)

I realize this is a VERY small sample size, but I assure you other logs will show similar results.
