[Theralion's Mirror] is ranked very low on my rawr. While the proc seems to be there in theory it's ranked on par with [Fall of Mortality]. So I guess it's safe to assume the proc isn't properly configurated, any way to bypass this?

Sounds like you're in the wrong model. Make sure you're in the Mage model.

Astrylian, I'm receiving the same issue as well on rawr displaying the survivability ratings. The hot streak analyzer and other options found in the mage model are present, so I'm sure i'm in the mage model.

All I did to reproduce it:

Opened up firefox, went to rawr, and loaded my mage from armory. Upon the completion of loading I'm presented with only survivability ratings. Any sort of changes to simply show the dps/overall/survivability doesn't change anything.

Check this if it applies in your case (regarding no dps shown): Rawr - Rawr - View Issue #19479: [Mage] Results showing Survival and not DPS

I just deleted all stats from the trinket because it's not relevant anymore. I have no idea how to show it correctly though.

Next question (I think this is the same thing cbags was asking about earlier, I'll try to be more clear). This may be a misunderstanding of how to interpret some rawr output, if so, clarifications would be appreciated.

So, i start by checking the rank on the meta choice I have.


Looking good, 16K calculated dps. I'm happy.

Now I look at the ranking for some other gems I have like the Piercing Dream Emerald in my gloves I need to keep my meta alive.



I'm surprised to find that Rawr is telling me to use pure red gems in this glove socket, as I know it will break my meta. So I equip the Brilliant Inferno Ruby.



Bam, calculated dps drops to 15.6 k. That seems right, but it seems counter-intuitive that Rawr would direct me to choose this gem choice when it "knows" it will drop my dps. So I check a few things. The default setting to enforce gem requirements is enabled. I start swapping to red int gems in all the sockets until my hit drops to about 1666 at which point it starts directing me to pick blue hit gems. At no point when I'm fiddling around with the gem choices do I come out with a calculated dps higher than what i started with, so I don't think the program is trying to move me out of some local maximum to a higher one farther out. Am I misinterpreting what the gem choice rankings are really telling me here?

Anyway, I ran the optimizer and it did squeeze out a couple more dps with a meta gem change, but rawr is still telling me to pick the meta that won't activate with the new gem choices. Weird.

@Regwin

The current interation of Rawr.mage is obviously not perfect as indicated by the post related to Phylactery. However, to your issue, I believe that rawr will tend to look at the individual gems per slot on an individual basis. That is to say, that purely based on the stats provided by the gem and/or socket bonus, it will rank the gems. It will not consider the fact that changing the gem would break the Meta unless you run the optimizer which should recommend the necessary amount of blue gems necessary to keep the Meta working.

Im not sure what the issue is, when I use the optimizer I keep getting the following message.

The following currently equipped items are not available

- Rigid Cogwheel is not available
- Smooth Cogwheel is not available
- Lightning Dream Emerald is not avaialble

can anyone give me a hand on what I can do to fix this.. thanks

Re: gems: Make sure you guys have both the chaotic and the ember meta gems marked as available. If you only have chaotic marked, Rawr will correctly ignore it and gem for intellect.

@kilkenny: It means exactly what it says - you have those items equipped but not marked as available. The optimizer will only consider items/gems/enchantments that are marked. You mark items by clicking the diamond icon next to it so that the diamond fills in.

I have the same issue with Rigid and Smooth Cogwheel. They're selected in Gems -> Cogwheels, and I went and added them in some Gem Templates just to be redundant, but the optimizer still claims they're unavailable.

Fortunately the error message seems spurious. For example, if I change my Smooth Cogwheel to Fractured (deliberately to choose something bad), then optimize, the optimizer recommends I turn it back to Smooth, even after claiming Smooth Cogwheel was unavailable.

I double checked to ensure my cogs were checked with a green diamond.. they are all checked, still coming up with the same issue of not being available..
