Interesting 6p findings
Fists of Fury has some interesting caveats to it. The optimal rotation in Bloodlust ever since 6p has become the best gearing route to take was to cycle Fists of Fury and Rising Sun Kicks back to back.
Normally, this will achieve 3 ticks of FoF for every cast. However, with 15.38% haste, your Rising Sun Kick comes off cooldown too quickly. Assuming you are instantly canceling your Fists of Fury with RSK, you will only achieve two ticks. Since Fists of Fury is usually cast 5 times in that window, you can lose an entire FoF’s worth of damage.
This can be a big deal, but it kind of depends on fight length. It’s hard to quantify how much of a loss this can be as the simc apl is not currently perfected (will only cast 10gcds in Serenity, for example.) primarily because of how clunky canceling FoF is in the apl. As such, this isn’t really an issue that can be simmed. Once more updates for the Serenity apl are pushed, we might be able to see some changes.
