Oh, and if you could, I’d love to know the stats you imputed for the testing. I assume T9 means better, but more along the lines of AP, Crit, Hit, Expertise, and any set/racial bonuses if at all.

I noticed some of the values added up to 99%, once again, unsure if this is a display error or if some things are getting dodged and are just unlisted.

Also, that comment about BCB and Necrosis were in the thought that perhaps Bladed Armor and Conviction might better support the spec. I know I inquired about this before, but it seems to be an idea that is shunned, though I’ve not seen any data to support or disprove it’s value.

A little over the top there SJ. I simply pointed out that your pet would not be up for 100% of the run. Id be surprised if it was out half that in a real dps scenario. As you said it is only 1% of your dmg for what % of the RP you have available? Is that really an effective use of RP? Id love to see the difference without a pet at all.

As for your response. I reread then rereread the post and there is nothing in it about the pet, frequency of cast impact on RP etc. Could you point that part your referring to out.

I really respect what you write here and use it almost as a bible but hey calm down. I didn’t see that question in relation to the simulator anywhere else.

PS not interested in a flame war here just looking for info.

PPS sorry if i offended you it was not the intent.

SJ, you assume too much.

rotations are imposable for this because my second BS only procs a death rune sometimes. I guess its a bug because it enters its 10 sec cool down and stays a blood rune. Also I noticed this happening much more in unholy presence (I use it when the latency is bad) than I did in blood presence. And all four bs hits are accounted for landing in the combat log. this happens 30% of the time in blood and 90% of the time in unholy, any clues?

To Baldman:
Latency could be a factor as to the issue you are having where as the client states yes but the server says no. I see only two DK’s that use the name Baldman on the Armory…if you are one of these neither one of ya are hit/expertise capped on the current data pull. That mixed in with high latency could explain what you see during combat.

Re, Slangmeat
A link to that spec would be be good, instead just posting run this 15/54/2. it tear shit up! i swear.
Well Im not saying it does’nt but alil more info or a link to the spec would be good

Hey skeleton jack, just wonderin why the sim shows so many ps, and it’s?? With your rotation should only be 1 of each at the beginning I’m thinking and keep them goin with pestilence whole fight eh?

For AOE rotations I’d advise using a very slightly modified version of the Disease Glyph rotation, sub BB, initial HB, and whore out Rime procs in appropriate GCD slots.

IT – PS – Pest – BB – HB – FS – FS
OB – BB – BB – OB – HoW – FS

A Rime HB will be right at home in place of a FS slot. Beyond this startup focus on KM/Rime procs (imo also just whore out Rime HB’s) -> keep up diseases -> BB.

Remember to keep diseases up for BB effectiveness. For AOE situations this will take a backseat to KM/Rime HB’s.

ok so i was talking with another DK about DW spec… here is what we came up with

trading base dmg for crit dmg

single disease rotation

HB BS BS OB FS etc spamming OB…using blood tap to rotate in unbreakable armor…

HB glyph, FS glyph, OB glyph

use HB to refresh FF

cuts off time of use for PS/Pest
only use Pest for AoE packs

seeing a significant jump in dps from the DW dks on this… try it out

How does imp frost pressence increase DPS ? yoiu say its the best dps spec , even those 2 in icy talons would increase dps . not like you are in frost pressence when dpsing anyway
