When choosing trinkets in the simsheet, there is an option to desync a trinket. If double proc of trinkets can push you over the cap, it is usually beneficial to desync the weaker trinket. For instance if you use MR and GT, desync GT and you will see a sizable effect on your dps compared to the case of no desyncing. Same with gemming agility for mutilate and then using death's verdict both normal and heroic versions, which can push you over the crit cap - desync the normal version if both procs push you over the cap. An indicator in the top left corner of the Gear page will tell you if you reach the soft crit cap when all trinkets proc.

Desyncing in the simsheet, equips the trinket 22 seconds before the start of the combat, so it cannot proc in the first 23 seconds (for a trinket with 45 second internal cooldown) of the fight.

To model this in 1.3 beta 4, open up the calcs sheet and zero out row 846. This will force the uptime periods of GT and MR to be disjoint.

How exactly do you force them to desync? Just wait for one to proc and then stop attacking for a bit? Or do you mean wait and equip it just before you start combat?

The theory is that you reequip one of them 20 seconds before the fight starts, such that the first goes off 5 seconds into the fight as usual, the second comes off cooldown and procs 25 seconds in, and so forth - if timed properly, they will never proc together except on the very longest fights... of if there are interruptions that allow them to resync.

Thought this macro I was using might be useful

/equipslot 13 Grim Toll
/script Stopwatch_Play()
/stopwatch 30
/in 35 /sw
/equipslot 13 Darkmoon Card: Greatness

On first use it will equip GT in the first trinket slot and start a stopwatch display with a 30 second countdown it will undo the stopwatch display after 35 seconds. A second click will re-equip DMC:G.

Hi, just wanted some advice on some gear from TOC. Been running my rawr on trying to find which is a better item but getting some wierd results. Currently running ruptureless combat with soft cap arm pen and trinket. Out of these three chests which is more better between 25 heroic jaraxus chest, twins 10 heroic and knightbane crafted. My rawr is saying Knightbane is better out of the three for some reason, and placing the jaraxus chest below it.

Also getting a strange result on my ranged weapon, currently using [Baelgun's Heavy Crossbow] but says that Crimson star is BIS, dunno if its because my expertise is below 26, even though its not really that important for combat.

Also, If anyone has any BIS links for combat ruptureless cycle gear from TOC would be appreciated.

Please don't use Rawr for Rogues. There is a reason that it states the Rogue module is still under development. There are high-quality spreadsheets and simulators available here for both Combat and Mutilate. Use those instead.

As stated in this thread on the RAWR discussion forums, there IS no current rogue developer. If someone knowledgeable here wanted to fill said role, I'm sure there are many RAWR users that would be very very happy...

Hi,

Im made some spreadsheet simulations today with my gear, and im very suprised with the results. Im curently using (51/18/2), and still got good amout of ArP (around 450, Mjolnir and 2T9 bonus set).

#1 Eviscerate Only + weapon Swap ----> 7715 DPS (Evis Glyph)
#2 Envenom Only + weapon Swap ----> 8601 DPS (Tricks Glyph)
#3 Envenom + Rupture +Weapon Swap ---> 8481 DPS (Rupture Glyph)
#4 Evisc + Rupture + Weapon Swap ----> 7829 DPS (Evisc Glyph)

So, isn´t Envenom a magical damage ? (not influenced by ArP) i was expecting #1 and #4 to be a little higher.

It is because that Envenom ignores all armor that it is doing more damage than an evis that is only ignoring some armor.
From what I understand, 450 ArPen isn't *that* high (just past the soft cap) and still no where close to the point where you'd be using a rupture-less, evis cycle.
The other thing, is that most 51/x/x specs are talented for increased envenom damage. When you were testing the evis vs envenoms, did you change the talent distribution to imp evis instead? That might make the gap a bit narrower. I doubt the use of evis in an assassination cycle will ever pull past the use of envenom though. (Might be wrong here.)

So my last sentence seems to be wrong entirely.

It seems to have been overlooked just about everywhere and unless I'm seeing things I seem to have stumbled upon a simple item that, so far, I have not seen any comments on in these forums about it.
[Iron Boot Flask]. This little guy has a brutal cooldown of one hour, but it lasts for 10 min as long as you don't mount up in the middle or die. Which rounds out to a little less than 17% uptime, however much of it you can utilize.

The reason I mention it is because it has a chance on hit to do nature damage 100-150 and I believe it can crit. The actual effect is called Electric Discharge. I've noticed that Recount does not pick it up, however SWStats does. SWStats calls it Shocking Discharge if I remember correctly. Although the damage is somewhat negligible, when you are trying to eek out every .01% more DPS anywhere you can get it, this is a small opportunity to almost set it and forget it.

I first noticed it back when I was raiding Naxx, we were on farm at this point, so for some fun I blew all my cooldowns on the first pull in the spiderwing, Glyphed FoK with an Adrenaline Rush while chain pulling, I took a gander at my damage meter and that Electric Discharge was accounting for 2.6% of my damage. Ever since then I bring it always and use it whenever I can. Besides, it's kind of fun running around as an iron dwarf; I think there is also an achievement oriented with it too.

Now I have not done any testing on this in several months and there were rumors that it was being changed in 3.0.8. It may do nothing at all anymore and I'm not very good at theorycraft testing. Maybe this could be some food for thought for someone.
