I got my new trinket [Embrace of the Spider]. And i hoped that it will increase my dps as shown on rawr.
This is my patchwerk dps with %40 crit with equipped [Embrace of the Spider]


I'm suprised about this low dps and swapped this trinket with [Sundial of the Exiled] at grobbulus fight.
Here's my wws report at this fight

How can this %12 crit difference happen?

RNG.

We try to make Rawr as accurate as possible, so I'm sorry that that double-valued proc on Embrace of the Spider got in there for the release version. Just refresh its data, or edit it and remove one.

With the engineering haste enchant getting changed to 1 min cd and 10 sec duration. Is there any way you could model that into Rawr, complete with CD stacking?

Reply was given elsewhere.

After optimizing, Rawr keeps suggesting gear setups that have lower score than my current setup. Why is it doing that? how come its not at least recognizing my setup as the best one?

Because your current setup contains items, gems, or enchants which are not marked as available.

Not in the current version (though something like that is coming). Goto the 'Current Gear/Enchants/Buffs' chart, and make sure everything is marked with a diamond (or is a buff and doesn't have a diamond). Beyond that, it's just gems that could be the problem. Look through your equipped gear for gems, and check that each one is marked available.

Extremely stupid question...I can't seem to find a download link for Rawr.mage. Could anyone direct me to one?

There is no specific link for Rawr.Mage. It is part of Rawr that you can download from Rawr - Home (there is a button on the right labeled Download Now).

Ah, I was under the impression they were seperate additions to Rawr . Thanks for clarifying.

edit: solved

It's not actually superior, it depends on gear etc. On top end gear, apparently haste enchant might be better. Don't know why it's not in, but I requested it already a few posts up

It's on my todo list.

Didn't mean to post, sorry.

Hi Kavan. As I was working on my spreadsheet to expand and support arcane and frost spells, I came to realize that my numbers for AB and AM crits were totally not matching results from live. I checked out of curiosity what numbers RAWR had, and they were the same incorrect numbers.

The discrepancy is rather large. Were talking predicted 4k crits (for AB-0) whereas reality gives 10%+ higher crits. I am unsure where the extra crit multiplier comes from. I realize this isn't a bug in RAWR itself, but I am aforewarning you that current mage TC is inaccurate for calculating arcane spell dps using 0/53/18 builds (at least that, probably more exceptions). Something to keep in mind.

If anything, I suspect that means we have some talents that operate outside of whats written on the tooltip.

Upon further inspection, it appears that the following spells are affected by the crit multiplier miscalculation (or rather, some buggy talent affecting spells it shouldnt ?):

cone of cold
frostnova
frostbolt
ice lance
AB
AM

curiously, blizzard is unaffected.

In other words burnout affects all spells except blizzard.

I've never seen Ferocious Inspiration in Rawr. Is it currently modeled? It can stack twice for 3/6% damage increase. In my raiding, it is usually up 100% of the time. It would be awesome to be able to have this modeled in Rawr -- based on whether there's 1 or 2 BM hunters (31 point talent) in the raid.

Also, would it be possible to expand the "Damage Breakdown" to include Ignite damage?

For instance, instead of saying 65% of damage was from Frostfire Bolt, show how much of it was from Frostfire Bolt and how much was from the ignite damage of Frostfire Bolt. Even further, you could show the non-crit damage, the crit damage, and then the ignite damage (which is the crit damage, in a sense, but nonetheless, it's a separate DoT).

In a sense it would show the damage much like WWS does. Although, WWS only parses the log, so it's not going to breakdown the percentage for non-crit and crit, but Rawr could. I imagine it could have a main category, Total Damage, followed by each spell (Frostfire Bolt, Pyroblast, [b]Living Bomb, etc.) Under the Total Damage and under each spell, there'd be a breakdown of:

Non-Critical damage: %
Critical damage: %
Ignite damage: %

So if the crit increase from burnout works on arcane spells also, does it also increase the mana cost on crits? As said it doesn't matter much for practical purposes, but I'll make the changes for completeness.

No. Just tested it (Burnout's crit mana cost is a bitch to test, since it doesn't show up in the combat log); Burnout still only charges extra mana on crits of fire spells.

Manly mentioned this to me earlier, I did some tests on the PTR and came up that every spell I tested got the expected benefit from Burnout except Blizzard. This is obviously a bug. Data will be posted sometime soon, I'm taking this as an opportunity to rewrite my Proven TC Stuff thread to include all the LK data I gathered in beta.

I just noticed that, looking at the "reconstruct sequence" graph in rawr.mage,
it takes a flame-cap and immediately after that effect wears off (at least that is how I interpret that horizontal line underneath the graph) it takes a managem.
However, using a flamecap still triggers a 3min CD on managem, so this is not possible. Am I misinterpreting things here? Is the joint CD removed in 3.0.8?
