Heya,

There seems to be an issue with Rawr 2.2.5 (Released on 23.05.2009) and EnhSim 1.7.0:


When I export from Rawr to EnhSim, not all Data is being copied to the clipboard:

Last night I required a few more pieces of gear, usually I won't gem them and I usually go into Rawr, import from Armory, and have it optimize.... 2.2.2 and 2.2.5 are giving me the same results they are optimizing way to much hit 500+ hit.. The only reason I like using rawr is to optimize gems/socket bonuses. And it makes simming alot easier when moving gear around... Is there a ETA to this being addressed, or is there another method to find the perfect gem/socket bonus setup.

Using Rawr 2.2.5

I'm a little confused here, general concensus on the forum seems to be that [Totem of the Dancing Flame] is pretty awful, but in rawr 2.2.5 it's totally amazing for me with a score of 175.87 points (dueling gets 58.23 points, hateful totem 73.74 points)

Now I'm wondering, if the model for enhancement in 2.2.5 is flawed when it comes to totems (or perhaps just for dancing flame) or if it's really that awesome given my gear setup. (most noteworthy items are 4 pieces of conqueror's worldbreaker kit, the masticator and touch of madness) Although it comes out really stellar as well when loading lesser-geared shamans on the server and comparing how the totems score.

Or, Totem of the Dancing Flame actually does have the potential of being absolutely amazing.

The weird thing is though is that (unsurprisingly) Totem of Dueling gives me slightly higher white, flametongue damage, LB and LS damage. Dancing Flame however not just cranks up my SS damage by 50 dps in Rawr, it also significantly boosts WF and LL damage. Especially the increase in Lava Lash damage goes through the roof.

That just feels wrong and I haven't really had the chance to test it in raids yet but just wondering what the opinion on it is over here.

In that case Rawr is bugged for it. Dancing Flame will increase your SS, and only your SS by 310 (155 for each weapon) pre armor reduction.

Downloaded latest Rawr to test some stats on my enhance sham, I start filling out my gear and such but when I get to the totem slot the program throws an exception and crashes. Is that a known bug or am I doing something wrong?

Latest Rawr is? Always say version when submitting bug reports, since 'latest' changes.

Also what do you mean by "I start filling out my gear and such". Did you import your char from the armory and replaced stuff, or did you start with an empty template and added gear to it? If the second, did you chose the correct model - shaman enhance for it?

You're obviously right, I'm sorry.

I have Rawr 2.2.5, I did not import from Armory as it seems to be having issues atm. I picked out my race/class/spec (tauren/shaman/enhancement) and started filling out gear. Every other slot works fine, its just the Totem slot that crashes the program.

How much hit is "too much?" Until you reach the dual wield white damage hit cap (basically not possible), hit provides around the same dps increase as agility, crit, or haste. Having a very high hit rating on your gear is a good thing.

There are people out there with well over 500 hit rocking both the Pyrite Infuser and the Blood of the Old God. Drop what hit you can in terms of gems and enchants, because you certainly shouldn't need any extra, but don't stress about replacing or 'getting rid' of gear that has hit on it so that you can hover at the cap before using one of the Ulduar hit trinkets. Even with an EP for hit of 1.6-1.7, Infuser and Blood are still both top 4.

Now that the changes have been done I'll have some time to actually work out why this is. Apologies in the mean time for this inaccuracy. I'm also homing in on the spell damage being always 10% higher in Rawr than in EnhSim.
It's an issue known by Rawr. Simply go one page back and read Levvas post.

For me, the Wraith Strike vs Calamity's Grasp numbers are close enough to be the essentially the same in real world use. However, the difference between Rawr and EnhSim is pretty significant. Wraith Strike 4562 vs 4249 (Rawr vs EnhSim) and Calamity's Grasp 4534 vs 4264 (Rawr vs EnhSim).

I might be using the Searing totem in Rawr. If I check the box under options, it only makes the Rawr numbers higher and further from EnhSim.

Do we have any known issues that might be resulting in these big differences? Am I doing anything wrong to give the big discrepancies?

I have Rawr 2.2.5, I did not import from Armory as it seems to be having issues atm. I picked out my race/class/spec (tauren/shaman/enhancement) and started filling out gear. Every other slot works fine, its just the Totem slot that crashes the program.
Can you post details of the error message please. Or steps I can take to reproduce it. eg: if you have an XML save file of a situation where it loads then you click something and it crashes and does this all the time, please post the XML file so I can repeat the steps and find the problem.

Thanks.

Ah ofc that's the problem, it was adding damage boost to MH & OH weapons but not removing it before doing other calcs. Fixed for next version.

Can I take the opportunity to say that this is EXACTLY the sort of testing that helps me enormously. You change one small thing and note an unexpected effect, I can then track down why that is happening.

Compare that to the generic "hit rating is too high", which gives me no clear direction as to what to check. So I'm faced with slugging through the code trying to work out what's wrong. This is doubly difficult when I can't compare to EnhSim as v1.7.0 has the old armour pen calcs and that skews the results. So I need to wait until v1.7.1 comes out with that fixed before I can really track down the hit problem. That is unless someone can come up with a specific test to show where its going wrong.

Part of the issue with hit is that extra white hit means things like berserker enchant procs slightly more = slightly more AP & SP = more damage to all abilities including spells. So its not as simple as saying adding hit beyond hit cap should have no effect on spell damage (eg: Earth Shock). I need to find a test that shows hit behaving badly so I can fix the problem without having to wade through the entire code from scratch with nothing accurate to compare to given v1.7.0 Enhsim has old ArP calcs (pre: Ghostcrawler post on ArP).




PS. I've been snowed under at work doing a major overhaul of our email system and installing Exchange 2007

This combined with joining a new guild and being an officer has meant my time for actually programming over the last couple of weeks has vanished to almost nothing. Sadly recently this has meant that there were no changes between v2.2.4 & v2.2.5 for Enhance module. I did add the new optimizer results frame though with side by side paper dolls, which I hope people like.

Fear not however I do intend to get back into it as soon as things settle down a bit and life returns to normal.

Please use the EnhSim by Ziff & others to simulate what gear, priorities etc are the best dps. You can use ShockAndAwe to export your paperdoll stats to EnhSim.
