SimulationCraft, a tool Mograin, Rivendare, Gorefiend and Thassarian would have used - Page 7

This log snippet would seem to indicate my pet isn't pre-cast, even though I have the talent?

0.00     night_14_0_57 performs bone_shield (0)
1.00     night_14_0_57 gains 0 (0) runic_power from butchery (0)
1.73     night_14_0_57 schedules execute for raise_dead
1.73     night_14_0_57 summons night_14_0_57_ghoul.

edit:Wording.

I've just checked in a fix that should move both raise dead and bone shield to properly cast before combat. Sorry for the slow fix; I missed your report, Nightblade.

Niightblade · 02/19/10, 11:15 PM

Is it possible to configure extra sources of Runic Power, e.g. Revitalize?

Just a small error I found in the DK module line 3056:
The added Multiplier to the Frost strike Damage for "Blood of the North" is 100% instead of 10%

Present code

base_multiplier *= 1.0 + p -> talents.blood_of_the_north / 3.0;

instead of the correct code

 base_multiplier *= 1.0 + 0.1 * p -> talents.blood_of_the_north / 3.0;

This results in quite inflated Frost Strike and Frost DK damage.

EDIT: The Disease multiplyer of Obliterate also seems wrong

It's 0.1 times the number of diseases instead of 0.125 times the number of diseases

@BotN: Omg, how embarrassing :X
@Oblit:
Obliterate - Spell - World of Warcraft ?
12.5% per disease
Edit:
SimulationCraft, a tool Mograin, Rivendare, Gorefiend and Thassarian would have used

    target_multiplier *= 1 + p -> diseases() * 0.1 * ( 1.0 + p -> set_bonus.tier8_4pc_melee() * .2 );

That is already in? Or am I missing something

My Bad. I did not know the ealier post on the 12.5%/10% debate and thought 10% would be wrong, and it should be 12.5% instead. But it seems the code is correct in this respect. I'll retest this the next days on the ptr because the obliterate numbers given by simulation craft seem lower than my real numbers.

Thanks for fixing BotN,

Seems like 3.3.3 fixes it back to 12.5% per disease, just tested that. blizzard is weird :O

Is there an option to enable ICC buff?

Zimeron · 10/27/10, 9:55 PM

In the last few days we've had a lot of updates to the DK module and it is stable enough for outside testing.

Please note that we do not have a release out yet with 4.0.1 mechanics. If you would like to use the tool you have two options until we push a release.
-Download and install from the SVN (Note: to build the GUI you will need QT installed on your system.)
-Use a compiled version of the command line available for download from here (I upload these as time/need allows.)

The full source code for the Cata branch of SimC can be found at: simulationcraft - Project Hosting on Google Code
The 401/Cata DK module itself: sc_death_knight.cpp - simulationcraft - Project Hosting on Google Code

Full wiki output for 4.0.1 can be found at: DK401 - simulationcraft - Project Hosting on Google Code

When looking at the wiki, please take it with a grain of salt. We are actively working on the modules and as bugs are found, it can quickly become outdated. As I finished generating the last wiki output, a change was put in lowering the damage of the army/ghoul/gargoyle to better match live numbers, so while all profiles will decrease, unholy will be decrease more compared to the frost profiles. You can find the revision number the wiki was based off at the top of the file.

If you are unfamiliar with the command line of SimC you can find many examples at: Examples.simc - simulationcraft - Project Hosting on Google Code. An important reminder is that the program is currently for level 85 characters by default, so when using SimC with your level 80 characters, please include the following in your .simc file.

patch=4.0.1
target_level=83

If you encounter any bugs or have any feedback, either leave it in this thread or open a ticket (preferred) at Issues - simulationcraft - Project Hosting on Google Code.

Thanks zimeron for the Simcraft update and effort put into the DK module.
I know it's hard to compare logs with simcraft output, but I have the feeling that the DK numbers are a little bit too low ,e.g,, when compared to the Warlock numbers.
Simcraft says that my ~272 destro warlock should be at 18 k and that my friend's best-in-slot DK should hit 13.3. But usually he is in the same area, only 1-2k dps behind in tank-n-spank as in Saurfang HC25
It is also odd that in his, and a lot of other Saurfang kills, the damage sources are different to the simcraft result:
Froststrike is in the 35-40% area and Obliterate only around 20-25%. Maybe the priority list is not correct in the sim, or the runic power generation isnt up to date? Sorry for not providing more info than "it does look odd"
Maybe someone else can continue on my track and make sure that prio and RP are correct. I will update this after tonights raid.

When you're simming both of these are you toggling the ICC buff? If not, then the warlock is simming to high (23.4k) and the DK is still a bit low (17.3k). If you are able to get a log from a DK, please include the profile, with reforges, and if possible the rotation. The rotation isn't as important as the profile, as with the profile we can at least see if the abilities are hitting for the same, etc.

The rotation isn't as important as the profile, as with the profile we can at least see if the abilities are hitting for the same, etc.

No, I did not the toggle the ICC buff. You just need to head over to the warlock forum and see that they are hitting 19k (without ICC buff) with Best-in-slot reforged. For the DK, I just took your numbers for the Frost_2h_DK as he has the same equip and talents and that says 13.3k. So I was just surprised to see those huge differences in the sim, when they are a lot smaller in the real world.

For diagnosing high or low dps, it's really helpful for you to pick a fight in WoL, run the sim with the same fight duration, and see what is different -- are abilities hitting harder or softer? Are you using some abilities more often than others? Are the uptimes of various buffs (especially dark transformation, runic corruption, and shadow infusion) similar? Is the rotation you used in the fight similar to the rotation the sim is using?

There definitely are some places it's off, but it should be converging for level 80 pretty quickly -- at least, Unholy should be. I'm not sure about the state of frost or its accuracy.

r5307 build directly from svn: ./simc ../profiles/Death_Knight_401_Frost_2h.simc max_time=180 iterations=50000 target_level=83
only yields 10835 dps.
Comparing SIMC vs Weblog (corrected for ICC Buff)

Melee 2600 vs 2600 // crit % are fine
FrostStrike hits for 5109 vs 9303 // crit% are ok
Obliterate hits for 11177 vs 10000 // 30 vs 50% crit
Howling Blast hits for 6000 vs 3800 // crit % are ok

What should make us really suspicious here are the low froststrike numbers, the rest is likely to be just variance. I double checked with yesterdays full ICC run and he always hits for ~10k (without ICC buff), so it seems there is something odd. Also the crit percentage of obliterate is 20% lower than it should be. Anyone wanna take a look in the sources?

p.s. "maybe" froststrike is currently double dipping into the ICC Buff on live?
or FrostMastery is not handled correctly yet? that could explain the huge gap between the numbers

Unless your gear is the exact same as the profile used, please generate your own profile from the armory or wowhead. You can also toggle the ICC buff on to prevent math errors. Also, please include patch=4.0.1 in the command line, so that the correct coefficients, base damage, multipliers, etc are used.

There was a change to mastery in r5307, so it could possibly have broken mastery, but that wouldn't account for a near double difference in the damage of frost strike.

In regards to the crit rate of obliterate we didn't have KM affecting it, which I have fixed in r5311.

[e] Mastery was broken and is now fixed in r5312, bringing the 2H Frost DK up to 12430 dps, no ICC buff.
