i don’t think there’s a single person who follows me who’s into WoW raiding and all the addons & websites that go with that, but let me ask anyways:

when you view parse rankings on Warcraftlogs, do you generally sort by ilvl or by overall? I understand the difference, but which one do people usually go by?

SimCraft's $150K Apex GT: Unleashing Euphoric, Healing Racing at Sim Racing Expo

SimCraft wowed attendees at the Sim Racing Expo with their $150K Apex GT cockpit. Is sim racing the future of cognitive rehabilitation?

SimCraft offers hardware that is actually used for repairing cognitive function and other medical uses, and it was in attendance at the Expo. Everyone who tried it over the weekend agrees that there is nothing else like it.

Sorry if I'm mistaken, but were you the one who was running the simcrafting blog? If so I was wondering if you'd consider making a guide to the new SimPermut method, if you're using it? Thank you!

AHH I actually quit raiding for the remainder of Legion so I won’t be updating the SimCraft blog nor researching any new SimCraft methods, sorry!

(Dunno if you want this ask here or on the simcrafting blog BUT I'M GONNA ASK HERE) How would you set up the fight parameters for something like High Botanist Tel'arn in Simcraft? Skorpyron I imagine you can just set to "hectic add cleave" and leave it or whatever, but with the semi-council fight Botanist turns into... Would it be like, Heavy/Light Movement Fight Style, and 3 Raid Targets under the targets option? :X

On Normal/Heroic Botanist the fight begins with 1 target then gradually becomes 3 targets at the end with all 3 targets sharing the same health pool.  On Mythic the fight begins with 3 targets but their healthpools are individual and reset to 100% each time 1 is killed.

If you’re a melee spec on Normal/Heroic Botanist, set it to Heavy Movement @ 3 targets just because you’re gonna start cleaving a third of the way in, and once boss #3 spawns that’s probably when your raid will use Bloodlust.  Hectic Add Cleave might be useful to sim if you’re a melee who has to switch to the adds often. 

If you’re ranged, sim the fight as Hectic Add Cleave or possibly Beastlord since you're always switching between the adds and the boss(es).

@lawd0itsu AHH those are just trinket sims not combat sims lol.  Trinket sims compare all trinkets in my bags against each other and rank the combos by highest theoretical DPS under the conditions I set, in this case a basic patchwerk fight

Since Legion changed so much about statweights and specs I cant put my faith in basic guide threads/sites like I used to.  What’s best for a ret with my ilvl might be totally different from a ret with slightly different gear or lower ilvl.  Now I run simcraft once a week or whenever I get a potential upgrade (I got a new trinket yesterday lol) because those results are tailored to my unique circumstances

Remember kids: simcraft is everything in the first tier predictions of WoD.

Last time this happened, everyone was abandoning their rogues for monks or druids to fulfill that leather melee. I got my rogue to 90 in the first three days of MoP without any DPS issues. Fuck, I was top in most heroics until I could do some actual shit like the world bosses (I didn't raid until later on when it came to progression).

Just play what you want to play and just get good at it? Don't rely on simcrafting. 

They said healers got the short end of the stick. They were right, but that's only because of the new system. There was a lot of speculation that due to the DPS decrease, Disc would be shit.

I guarantee you, it's not. And that was before I found out I had Holy Nova. If anything, every other healing spec BUT Disc got shit on.. because.. uhmm Holy Nova.

Just give Blizzard time. They'll give you something that will reignite your desire to keep playing your favorite class and spec.
