Thanks for the great work on this.

Just wanted to point out something I noticed. Impurity, or rather lack of it, does not seem to affect Gargoyle damage at all, which I find untrue on live at a dummy (~19% more damage with 5/5 over 0/5). Obviously this isn't of high importance since every Unholy spec has full Impurity but thought I'd mention it.

How would something like tricks be implemented though? Effects like tricks or hysteria vary greatly depending on when they are used, as well as how often. It would have to be something like "Percentage of Tricks Up time" or whatever.

Thinking just for disease rolling, you get one tricks at the start of the fight and you roll that modifier for the fight. Its not about the the special or melee dmg you do with tricks, its about having that extra %dmg modifier on your diseases.

As of 3.3 you can no longer roll diseases with maximum buffs, every time you use pestilence a snapshot of your AP is taken and applied to your diseases.

Tricks gives you % damage, not AP, and you can roll that. You can also roll crit or whatever else except AP. Getting support for this in sim would be nice.

Unless I'm confused about what you're asking for, there's no need to get support for rolling TOTT on diseases. Just multiply the damage done by diseases by 1.15, the modifier you get from TOTT to see how much extra damage you get out of it.

As for rolling crit, you might have had a case for it a few months ago, but with the 4t9 set bonus so far behind us, it's probably not the most important thing to get implemented.

There seems to be something wrong with the sim. This is my situation:

I set up everything correctly. I use 0/17/54 (sub frost) with reapingless rotation, I get the correct report (10554 dps).

Now I try it with sub blood to see which gives me the highest dps. The only two things I change now is the spec to 14/0/57 and rotation to include reaping.
The result it gives me is 4549 dps, obviously wrong.

The noticeable reason seems to be the number of SS the sim use in the sub-blood sim is much lower than it should be.
With the subfrost I get around 50k SS (100h), with the subblood I get 11k when it should've been higher due to reaping.

I've yet to figure out why this is and that's why I've asked for help. Like I said before, the only thing I change is spec and rotation. Everything is the same between the two sims.

What kind of bug is that? Because it works perfectly well with sub-frost. If I recall, it worked fine with sub-blood before too (since there was no sub-frost until the last patch).

Oh this was a while ago. Not 100% sure if it's relevant or not, just making a suggestion. I always use a priority and have success, so I figured I'd pass on the information.

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone would maybe help me troubleshoot something with the sim. Is there any way to get it to simulate an unbuffed target dummy run? I turned off all buffs, but the DPS it gives just seems too high for me to realistically do unbuffed for my gear level (which I also inputted). Any tips?

Currently, the general recommendation is to use a Unholy/Frost subspec if you have a proc weapon like [Bryntroll, the Bone Arbiter]. This seems to be correct for me as well, as I am gaining about 200 DPS by switchting from Blood to a Frost subspec.

However, as it seems a non proc weapon ([Shadow's Edge] in my case) seems to be performing even better, increasing DPS by a further 50.
(All calculation done with the a 15% ICC damage increase selected)


Is this behaviour accurate, or did I somewhere made a mistake in the simulator (see the attachements for the XML files)? My information so far was that a Frost subspec with a proc weapons should beat a non-proc weapon (even if it's non heroic?).

Armory profile, if I'm not currently logged out in tank gear.
