Your list seems to start out assuming no WiseEclipse, and then assumes WiseEclipse is present?

I'd suggest "SF if any other cast means allowing MF to fall off before eight ticks (SF Glyph)" should have a fairly high priority (not that I'm normally aware of this).

Assuming you use WiseEclipse, you might actually be able to use a shorter decision tree :

If (Faerie Fire is down)
cast Faerie Fire
elseif (Moonfire is down)
cast Moonfire
elseif (Moonfire is up, can be prolonged and time remaining is >1 Starfire cast but <1 Starfire cast + 1 Wrath cast)
cast Starfire
elseif (Insect Swarm is down)
cast Insect Swarm
elseif (Lunar Eclipse is up and time remaining is >2 Starfire casts)
cast Starfire
elseif (Lunar Eclipse is up and time remaining is >1 Starfire cast but <2 Starfire casts)
cast Wrath
elseif (Solar Eclipse is up)
cast Wrath
elseif (Lunar Eclipse is on ICD for more than one Wrath cast time + one Wrath travel time)
cast Starfire
else
cast Wrath

As Erdluf stated it seems you changed your mind about assumptions while writing it

WiseEclipse will do the rest of the job (even cancelling Solar Eclipse when Lunar is off ICD, and Bloodlust time remaining is greater than 15s - if you activate the option).
Added Faerie Fire.

Edit : And Erdluf got a point on fully extending MF.. I'm not sure what priority it could have but I always wanted to know if it would be better to cast one or more SF under Solar Eclipse to extend MF to it's full duration with glyph of SF - not sure if it would be viable without 2T9, but it would also change when we abandon 2T8 and loose some power out of Eclipse - or just spamm Wrath and reapply MF when it falls off.
Each SF that add a tick to MF is a kind of "superSF", doing the dmg of a SF+a tick of MF so it may beat a Solar Eclipsed Wrath (especially at high level of haste)

Edit 2 : added another assumption in blue in the decision tree to explicit what I meant to say in my first edit.

I'm assuming WiseEclipse the whole time, guess I should reword slightly. The top line is to make sure that if you have 2.5s left on Lunar and Moonfire is down, you cast Starfire to ensure your WE proc.

I forgot to add in the "clairvoyant" switch to Starfire on NG procs, too.

That's interesting, I don't alter my casts at all based on Moonfire extensions. Just for a brief estimate, the different between Eclipsed Wrath and uneclipsed Starfire on the sheet in my gear is 2300 DPS. That makes me inclined to think it's not worth doing that for 2 seconds to gain 2800 damage from a Moonfire tick.

if (Lunar Eclipse is up and time remaining is >1 Starfire cast but <2 Starfire casts)
cast Starfire and WE will cancel Eclipse when it completes
elseif (Moonfire is down)
cast Moonfire
elseif (Insect Swarm is down)
cast Insect Swarm
elseif (Lunar Eclipse is up but about to be canceled by WiseEclipse)
cast Wrath
elseif (Lunar Eclipse is up)
cast Starfire
elseif (Solar Eclipse is up, Bloodlust is up, Lunar Eclipse is off ICD, and Bloodlust time remaining is greater than 15s)
cast Wrath and WE will cancel Eclipse when it completes
elseif (Solar Eclipse is up)
cast Wrath
elseif (Lunar Eclipse is on ICD for more than one Wrath cast time + one Wrath travel time)
cast Starfire
elseif (Nature's Grace was refreshed by your previous Wrath)
cast Starfire
else
cast Wrath

New spreadsheet up with T10 bonuses (2T10 might need to be refined some, but should be a good start).

e: at first glance, the two T10 bonuses together are worth about as much as the 2T8.

Am I reading this right, that one should refresh Moonfire / Insect Swarm, while Lunar Eclipse is up? (but not while Solar is up?)

No. It says the only time to not refresh them, is if you are about to cast your last Starfire before WE cancels the Lunar Eclipse.

I'm seeing lower at the moment--I have the bonus affecting roughly 20% of spells while casting Wrath, and roughly 11% while casting Starfire. I'm basically modeling it similarly to NG: with Starfire, if one of the previous N casts (where N = 6/casttime) has procced OoC, apply the bonus. So "uptime" is deceptive, because you waste part of the buff while it expires mid-cast.

Looking at this again, should it be (Nature's Grace was refreshed by your previous Wrath and Solar is on ICD)?

I don't think I've ever looked into this in detail, but I doubt it's worth the extra Starfire cast to risk proccing a Solar when you shouldn't.

• Hamlet · 11/14/09, 4:44 PM

Also (sorry about the multiposts, just seeing new things while I work on the spreadsheet/TTT), some napkin math on set bonuses:

As a guideline, let's say that upgrading one armor slot by one tier (13 ilvls) confers about 40 DPS. This comes from my earlier calculation comparing 2T8 to 4T9, where it seems that upgrading two armor slots by 2.5 tiers each (226 to 258) recovers about 200 of the DPS lost from switching the set bonuses.

Looking at the spreadsheet in my current stats, set bonuses are worth:
2T8: 500
2T9: 360
4T9: 210
2T10: 230
4T10: 270

So, starting from 2T8/2T9.258 (BiS pre-3.3):
1) Dropping 2T8 for 2T0.264: 270 DPS lost from set bonuses, 240 gained from stats (going up 3 tiers in 2 slots). Probably not worth it, but close enough to be worth checking more exactly.
2) Dropping 2T9 for 2T0.264: 150 DPS lost form set bonuses, 40 gained from stats (going up half a tier in 2 slots). Not worth it.

So once you have access to two pieces of T10.264, the best option will probably still be 2T8/2T9 (yup). Possibly 2T9/2T10.
Once you have access to two pieces of T10.278, 2T9/2T10 is best.

Again from 2T8/2T9:
1) Dropping both for 4T0.264: 360 DPS lost from set bonuses, 280 gained from stats (sum of above two swaps). Probably not worth it, but again, need to check more exactly at some point, since the superior itemization of the T10 set might close the gap.
2) Dropping both for 4T0.278: definitely worth it.

Result:
--4T10.278 will be BiS. Yay.
--T10.264 needs to be looked at more carefully, but it's bordering on unusable until you get some 278 pieces to go with it.
--I'm really hoping they make 8-piece T10 sets at some point like they did in Sunwell, so that 2T8/2T9/4T10 can be BiS for the whole rest of the expansion.

You need to look at how well T10 is itemized. There is almost no spirit in there and most of it is crit/haste with only two hit pieces. Its much more like 3.5 tiers instead of 2.5 tiers going from the 226 tier 8 to the 264 T10

Some trinkets:
Muradin's Spyglass - Items - Sigrie
Dislodged Foreign Object - Items - Sigrie

These both look very strong at first glace. The crit one is easy to compare to Eye/IDS. The haste one, well, everyone seems to have this aversion to high haste, but it will still be as good as crit for most people in ICC gear. And the stacking effect is, depending on ICD, potentially stronger than the proc on Flare.

I'll check in more detail in the spreadsheet soon, or maybe once we know the ICD, but these will help relieve trinket woes. Quick mental guess is that both are weaker than Reign.

Plugged the numbers for Muradin's into Rawr. (Yes, it is supported out of the box.) It is on par with the non-heroic version of Reign of the Dead/Unliving, if the stack can be maintained vis-a-vis Eye/Illustration. Rawr currently doesn't have a way to model stack ramping or re-ramping, so take that with a grain of salt.

I am using 2pt8 and 2pt9 245. I find it unlikely that I will get more than maybe one piece of T9 258 - we are still working on Anub, and I wont expect to be first in line for a token.

So assuming i will end up with this, am i looking at an upgrade from 2pt8/t9 to 2 or 4 piece T10, even at the lowest ilevel? I assume that the extra stats on T10, and the much better itemazation, will be enough to push off 2pt8, but i simply can't see through it. I am not a math pro.

The biggest worry of mine are the bonuses. I did some napkin math assuming my current set bonuses, and imagined that i had the T10 bonuses *aswell* and i was looking at a 3,75% damage increase from 2pt10 and a mere 2,9% increase from 4pt10. Am i completely off here? It seems very disappointing, considering we have to let go of 2pt8 for such a small increase in damage, although we must keep in mind that crit will generally be increased from T10 (with an additional 200 crit rating if i simply compare T9 to T10).

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated

The most recent version of SimC has support for all the known trinkets (Dislodged Foreign Object, etc).

I also added an option strict_gcd_queue=1 that will not let spell queuing occur when the cast time gets below GCD+GCD_Lag. It is not on by default.

It really hammers our calculation of Moonkin DPS, significantly lowering the haste soft-cap.

As I said, it is not yet on by default, but it might be worth some experimentation.
