You are, it must of been a miscommunication amongst departments before/after change - the Glyph is outdated.

Note that the glyphs are datamined - there's plenty of "dead" data in various files that never saw the light of day.

As Venomous noted it's definitely an error in communication. I imagine the glyph will be changed to 3%, but the more I think about it, 3% seems a little steep.

Leto, where are you seeing "PPM"? As far as I'm concerned the change to Imp. Poisons and Envenom were just wording changes. Normal Frequency of IP is .2, currently with 5/5 Imp. Poisons you add .1 to that. In 3.1 you multiply it by 1.5, resulting in the same rate of application. Likewise with the Envenom change (of course these won't be multiplicative). Makes me wonder if why they did this in the first place, and why deadly poison wasn't altered. (I can only hope that it doesn't change to PPM and that slow daggers will make a comeback.)

I also think that the new glyph set-up will be: HfB / Mutilate / Rupture. Glyph of Slice and Dice can be replaced with 1/2 Imp. SnD, and with a cheaper Mutilate and higher levels of crit we'll probably just be using an unaltered Slice and Dice. The real pain here is there is no room for Glyph of Eviscerate for our IP/IP/Evis users.

I wanted to test the PPM of IP as Combat specc with CG in MH. IP on CG, offhand is WD with no posion.
But wowerror ended this test early. Here is the WWS maybe it helps something.

No, normal chance for proc to happen is now (untalented) 20%, or 0.2. Frequency is a function of time.

If the poison proc goes to PPM, that means that poison damage won't be affected to haste any more, if I'm thinking this right. Has that happened with DK Killing Machine mechanics?

Okay, just a general request in terms of such testing? Please only equip one weapon at a time. It makes the data a lot easier to deal with.

However, in terms of ballpark figures: there are 1501 swings, of which roughly 35% would be MH hits, so we're looking at about 525 melee attacks; this generated 201 IP procs. This works out to a proc rate in the neighborhood of 38%, which would work out to something around 9 PPM. To get any more accuracy that that, we'll need some more detailed and systematic testing.

For ease of comparison, with no poison talents (since this was a combat build), that's almost a doubling of proc rate from the base 20%. If that's really the case, that would mean that they've tuned it to a base speed of 1.4 seconds, which would leave Mutilate damage largely unchanged.

New user to the spreadsheet, just downloaded the latest version from the first page of this thread -- 0.4.7

Quick question -- I don't see the [Titan-Forged Leather Helm of Triumph] & [Titan-Forged Boots of Triumph] Wintergrasp rewards as a gear options in the spreadsheet. Seems like these beat out some of the blues/older PvP items for pre-raiding or perhaps I am missing something?

Nice tool by the way -- I can tell a lot of effort has been put into this.

Likely because those items were just recently added to the game as far as I know. There is also a half decent trinket.

I believe the trinket you mean shares a proc with Mirror of Truth and is therefore of no use.

That would be roughly 10 PPM if it is affected by haste, or 8.45~ if it is not affected by haste.


It's looking like it is not affected by haste, but we'll need a lot more data to come to a conclusion.

Rogue at heart.

They proc the same spell, but they don't share an internal cooldown if that's what you meant.

I don't see how rupture will ever not make sense, as it is always going to be our highest damage per energy finisher. Maybe we'll get a talent somewhere that lets the ticks crit, mm.

My gear is currently at a point where if I replace one AGL gem with an AP gem the spreadsheet starts to favor AGL over AP again. It flip-flops back and forth as I get upgrades. Since the difference is so small I won't bother to swap back and forth between AP and AGL gems every time I get a new piece of gear, it's just not worth it until my gear isn't changing on a nearly weekly basis.
