Good catch!
With a text editor, open <Sim Folder>\GearSelector\Enchant.xml. Then look for the Hand-Mounted enchant.

Rawr is telling me that a Thundering Skyflare Diamond (480 haste for 6 seconds on a 1 minute cooldown) is the highest dps for my Death Knight over Relentless Earthsiege Diamond, which struck me as a bit odd, but I don't know, maybe I've just been out of touch.

I'd like to plug it into Kahorie's to get a more detailed result, but that meta gem is not on the list and I'm not sure how to add that in myself (that kind of thing isn't my specialty). Was hoping for some assistance in making that happen, and also to know if anyone else has encountered a similar result.

I didn't implement it and I don't think it deserve the time I would spend to add it. Rawr has always been out for this meta.

I'm DW frost with 267 hit rating (10.18% spell hit, a bit off of the 11% spell hit cap). I ran the sim's EP for 500 hours with the draenei hit buff so I would be over the spell hit cap.

BeforeMeleeHitCap<8% | 2.57
EP SpellHitRating | 2.14
After spell hit cap | 1.6

Then I ran it again for 1000 hours but this time without the 1% draenei hit buff.

BeforeMeleeHitCap<8% | 2.57
EP SpellHitRating | 2.14
After spell hit cap | 1.6

Shouldn't the EP SpellHitRating be higher without the 1% hit buff because I'm below the spell hit cap? The EP base for both of these calculations was at 50. Should I reduce that to something like 10 or 20 in order to see the results that I was expecting?

bug: Rune strike is not being activated in 1.2.1.6, even if 'save RP for rune strike'' is in priority, and presence is Frost. It's not in the report nor the log file generated. I'm using a Blood tank spec.

I downloaded the simulator, but it's giving me an error and closing itself as soon as I hit to start simulation. Itransfered realms yesterday so my dk is not in the armory for a few days. Would that have anything to do with it?

I've got this problem on two PCs until recently, but it was gone as suddenly as it appeared. I guess it has to do with Windows components and the system auto-update. Can't think of anything else that could change on both systems at the same time. I'd recommend you to make sure your system is receiving updates properly.

Is there any way to manually add in trinkets to the sim? I've been trying to add in Sharpened Twilight Scale (163 apr and 1304ap) and I could not find a way to account for the proc. I eventually just gave up and replaced the Whispering Fanged Skull crit rating with APR (ap proc is a bit low but close) Giving me ~48 dps increase over DV (heroic) which leaves me guessing STS 271 will be ~60 dps upgrade.

Is there any means by which we could estimate what the 277 version of STS will be?

Griefpb · 06/22/10, 1:07 PM

I'd think if the normal version of this is ilvl 271, then you are going to be seeing a higher heroic version ilvl than 277. I'm thinking more along the lines of 284, but no one knows heroic loot yet. Probably by this afternoon when the patch gets datamined, I'll come back and update this with the correct ilvl.

As for adding it in, you will probably just have to wait for a new version.

EDIT: Yep, ilvl 284

(Posted this in the Frost DW thread too wasn't sure where it should go)

I've been DPSing as DW Frost for some time, using a 1/52/18 build w/ Glyph of Icy Touch gemed for STR. I have always been a big fan of simulators but I had never used Kahorie's before. Long story short I was after some EP values to check for weapon upgrades in heroic 10icc. Running the sim I got a highest value for ArPen, 3.18 V Str of 2.65.

At this point I figured I might as well make the switch to the Glyph of Disease which I figured would favor the ArPen gemming. Oddly enough though, I've lost DPS. Both in game and according to the sim.

With 1029 ArPen, 1/52/18 glyph of Disease I'm simming 13671 DPS. Replace with Glyph of Icy Touch 13712dps
Gemming STR, same build, and Glyph of Disease 13719dps. Replace with Glyph of Icy Touch 13783 DPS.
Any ideas why the Sim would put such high value on ArPen and yet regemming to maximize it would cause me to loose DPS? And I had thought that the glyph of Icy Touch was considered to be a DPS loss against the Glyph of disease, but yet simming with both character builds I get a DPS increase using Icy Touch. The only thing I can think of is that i need to change my character build with each glyph. Or that I fucked up the sim somehow.

Uncheck Sync Blood Runes. Sim doesn't properly calc GoD over GoIT.

Feverdreams · 06/29/10, 7:18 AM

I didn't realize that GoD didn't sim properly, thx for the heads up. As for the ArPen issue, that was just me being a dumbass with the simulator.

If I try to edit my character sheet I get an error and if I start the sim fight it crashes the whole program.

Wetnoodl, delete your "character with gear" file and recompose it by hand. It helped me a couple of times.

Im assuming you have 267 hit rating on your character sheet, meaning you are way over spell cap with the 3% your getting from Virulence.
