The same gear, but simulating with T10 bonuses rather than T9 bonuses:

I know you responded to my post on the other thread but was it tested that the Glyph of Immolate provided less damage than the Glyph of Chaos Bolt and that's why it wasn't changed? I'm not sure if it was changed or not but the spec for 5/13/53 was changed but the glyphs didn't change in the details.

trangoul · 02/26/09, 3:06 PM

I feel as if 0/40/31 should be added:
http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?warl...0&version=9614
With the glyph choices of Lifetap / Incin / Immo, the rotation of CoA / Corr / Immo / Incin / Conflag at < 3 seconds of immo, and if possible soul fire for execute range (Incinx2->SFx2 I believe is working).

Thanks for the great work thus far though. Its interesting at how close the lock specs are looking to each other dps wise.

Naforce · 02/26/09, 3:08 PM

Could you by any chance make a simulation for "raiding environment"? Meaning all specs without ISB since mages can stand for that, with all the useable buffs for crit, haste and sp, just to see the difference? If I'm not mistaken, of course, and they already are in there.

Sedona · 02/26/09, 3:09 PM

Since you made a new thread for this post, I figured that I would repost my comment from the 3.1 Discussion thread and elaborate on my reasoning.

The spec that I am currently running with on the PTR lacks the amount of crit that you have decided to pick up via talents, but picks up talents that inherently buff the base damage of fire spells. I have picked up 3/3 of MC and opted for 3/3 Imp Immo over 4 points in Demonic Tactics and 3/3 in Backlash. I am curious to see if these crit talents outweigh the basic damage buffs of MC and Imp Immo.

Also I am rolling with a Spellstone. I am aware that the PTR currently shows Master Conjurer giving a buff to Direct Damage spells, but I am quite sure this is a bug and will be fixed. So I wager that the Spellstone will rank over the Firestone. I would be curious to see simulated numbers with the Spellstone.

And I mentioned as well that if your actions = an actual rotation, I would put Demonic Empowerment at the end of the rotation to maximize its uptime with more stacks of Demonic Frenzy.

EDIT: It would help if I posted my spec again so you don't have to hunt it down.

I'm relatively certain that it's included already. I wish I could dish out 5k+ DPS without outside buffs/debuffs.

I don't know, I did about the same or even a bit more DPS on the boss doll in IF on the PTR then I do live, so I feel something is amiss =/

• Zakalwe · 02/26/09, 3:14 PM

Thanks for reposting your suggestions here - they're all good, and as soon as I can find the time I'll run some more simulations. In the meantime, if anyone wants to try for themselves, the new stuff is all in the SVN trunk.

duhwhat · 02/26/09, 3:16 PM

Comments on the Affliction setup: I would be interested to see how glyph of Immolate performs vs. glyph of CoA, and various permutations of moving 1 point from Improved Drain Soul into Demonic Power and 2/2 Demonic power vs. 4/5 Ruin or 4/5 ISB.

All raid buffs are included in the simulation, but I don't think any of them have been updated with 3.1 changes. The mage crit debuff is 10% in the simulations, for instance.

I think that with the new changes and the nerf to affliction immolate, the alternative would be corruption over immolate. That's pure supposition though, I have to wait until I get home to check it.

Shabaz · 02/26/09, 3:35 PM

Very Cool! Thank you for doing this!

Interesting how much more balanced it looks.

• Zakalwe · 02/26/09, 3:49 PM

I spotted a pretty significant bug that caused decimation never to be triggered. Reran the simulation and edited my post above with the results. I also added the detailed damage breakdowns, so you guys can help me try to spot bugs.

• Zakalwe · 02/26/09, 3:52 PM

Yeah I'm absolutely amazed at the extremely even DPS output between the various specs. Very nice job by Blizzard there - I bet if they just made Decimation trigger on spellcast rather than on spell hit, deep demo would catch up to the others.

Naforce · 02/26/09, 3:54 PM

I'm just not really pleased with the results. I can do around 3800dps on the doll, would like to see numbers closer to 6000dps from simcraft. Did you try the affli-specs with the doomguard?

• Zakalwe · 02/26/09, 3:59 PM

Nothing has changed with either the doomguard or the succubus, so changing from one to the other would yield a 770 DPS gain, just like in the pre-3.1 simulations. It would put the 3.1 affliction profile at 6300 DPS.

Ishammael · 02/26/09, 4:01 PM

First of all, thank you for the simulations.

Second, I have 2 quick questions;

On this simulation:

warlock=Warlock_T8_54_00_17
level=80
talents=http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?warl...0&version=9614
actions=flask,type=frost_wyrm/food,type=tender_shoveltusk_steak/spell_stone/fel_armor/summon_pet,succubus
actions+=/haunt,debuff=1/curse_of_agony/corruption/unstable_affliction
actions+=/drain_soul,health_percentage<=25,interrupt=1/immolate/shadow_bolt/life_tap
Caster_T7_Base_Gear.simcraft
glyph_haunt=1
glyph_curse_of_agony=1
glyph_life_tap=1

Did you Lifetap only when you were out of mana or as needed to keep the glyph up? I am trying to figure out the actual benefits from the Life Tap glyph but haven't had a chance to get on the PTR yet.

Also, why the Succubus over the Felhunter/Doomguard?

Thanks,

• fallenman · 02/26/09, 4:06 PM

For affliction, I would also be curious to see what would happen if you were to take 1 point out of nightfall, and put it into demonic power. Demonic Power for a succubus at my gear level is worth about 15dps per point. Which I believe is more than nightfall per point.

Quick math:

My succubus hits for 537 average with lash of pain according to our WWS reports. On a 360 second (6 minute) fight, she'll use lash of pain 30 times with a 1% miss rate. This gives us ((30 * .99) * 537) = 15,949 damage, or (15,949/360) = 44.3dps.

If we reduce the cooldown by 3 seconds (1 point in demonic power) this changes the numbers to 40 lash of pain in a 360 second fight. ((40 * .99) * 537) = 21,265 damage, or (21,265/360) = 59dps. So 1 point gives us a 59 - 44.3 = 14.7 dps increase per point.

If I recall, nightfall is only worth around 9dps per point. I'd also be curious if aftermath is worth less than demonic power point for point as well.

Do you think something along this version of 31/40 with be viable with the succy out and using shadow?

How does hit come into play? I notice that the 0/41/30 spec doesn't have any hit talent points but 54/0/17 does... wouldn't that play a part as 0/41/30 will need to gear for that extra 3% hit while 54/0/17 can gear towards more damage?

Only when out of mana.

The Succubus has been better than the Felhunter since 3.0.8. I didn't include a Doomguard profile because of the 1-hour cooldown and because none of the pets have changed since 3.0.8, so it's not interesting in the context of trying to analyze the new stuff.

Yep, that's accounted for by the enchant_hit_rating/enchant_crit_rating lines in the profiles. Basically the specs without suppression give up 3% crit for 3% hit.

With the updated damage breakdown in the original post, I do not see soul fire listed in the actions for either 0/56/15 or 0/41/30. Is there a bug with the display of that information in this section or is the bug you mentioned still in existence?

Could you posibly try a 0/22/49 build? With the new master conjuror, I've been curious about it.
