manic pulsar
#

than AMR

#

as an example

#

expect SimC DPS to be about 1% higher than AMR, in general for rogues

#

using the same rotation

round canyon
#

how do i cancel a simulation in AMR?

manic pulsar
#

did you use client?

#

or web?

round canyon
#

im trying to test some changes to vanish in the apl

#

client

manic pulsar
#

close it

#

and then open it again

#

if it picks it up again - just let it stay closed for a few seconds

round canyon
#

okay

#

i already tried restarting it a few times and it always picked it up again

#

ill wait a few minutes this time

manic pulsar
#

i think it won't try more than 3 times or something

round canyon
#

why does AMR waste so many more combo points than SIMC aswell as more than the amount i waste while playing?

#

the only thing i can see from the APL is that it might not be taking into account broadsides

#

but im not sure

manic pulsar
#

I'd have to look - sometimes wasting a few more isn't a big deal, sometimes it is. could put in a little broadsides logic and see if it improves

round canyon
#

i think any logic that reduces the amount wasted will improve the damage of the simulation

#

about 25% of the combo points generated from pistol shot/BB are wasted

#

which seems really really off

maiden cargo
#

its probably this

#

no condition to check if full cp

manic pulsar
#

yeah, could add a check there and see if dps goes up

round canyon
#

thats after finisher in the apl so it already executes a finisher in the event that the actor has enough combo points for one

#

i think

maiden cargo
#

ah yeah

round canyon
#

i need broadsides logic in blunderbuss and pistol shot though

#

just not sure how to go about it

maiden cargo
#

i dont think you are supposed to finisher at 4 with broadsides

reef canyon
round canyon
#

it resulted in a slight increase in the simulation from that change alone

#

and im pretty sure your suppose to finisher at 4 with broadsides

reef canyon
#

The TLDR: Log in to AMR. Then click the copy button that shows up at the top of the apl page.

round canyon
#

although if im wrong i would appreciate a correction

reef canyon
#

Once you copy it, you can edit it.

strong rune
#

huh, i tested all of this a while ago and it ended up being the case that finishing sub-5 was never correct as outlaw

#

independent of RTB buffs

maiden cargo
#

thats what i thought as well

strong rune
#

literally brute-forced the APL search space

#

it's frustrating to have jolly roger and broadsides and waste CP for sure

round canyon
#

so what about using run through at 4 compared to fishing at 4?

#

is run through at 4 correct during broadsides?

strong rune
#

from what i tested a while ago, it was not

maiden cargo
#

wait, do you mean its never optimal to reroll below 5cp as well?

strong rune
#

oh sorry

#

sorry i misinterpreting loktark there

#

fishing for RTB at four might be defendible

#

i actually didn't look at that

maiden cargo
#

i find myself fishing a lot between 3-4

strong rune
#

because RTB is so much less energy intensive

round canyon
#

i mean fishing at 4 most likely is a damage increase if the target is going to die in fewer seconds than the buff would last for at higher combo point values

strong rune
#

yep, definitely ^

round canyon
#

what about with the 4piece where run through has on average a 12.5 energy cost reduction?

maiden cargo
#

4pc is nice but it overflows a lot

strong rune
#

totally worth revisiting my automation and rerunning

round canyon
#

i dont have the 4pc yet so i wouldnt know

strong rune
#

if someone wants to set that up it's pretty easy

#

you just need to fuss around to get a templatized version of the outlaw APL in there

#

then you run an optimizer for policy search

#

it's ... old / janky research code

maiden cargo
#

thats pretty cool

round canyon
#

its convenient that this is written in the only programming language i have some understanding of

strong rune
#

it's pretty trash-tier, honestly

#

wrote it in like a day or whatever

#

but the premise is that you want to automate the search over APL-space to find good performing APLs

#

still working on some variant of that on a different side project... watch this space for more ๐Ÿ˜‰

supple flicker
#

So fellas, is nightblooming frond good? I've read that it seems good and simms high but in reality doesn't or something like that. Is it true?

manic pulsar
#

you can add "rotation parameters" to AMR rotations now as well, and automate a batch run that varies the parameter

compact prism
#

Hey with nightly is drought of souls simming correctly? It seems to be simming pretty crappily vs other trinkets I have that looking at you would have thought would be doing much better

#

much worse*

livid forge
#

It doesn't look like it, but does SimC take the haste buff from Sephuz into account?

round canyon
#

no because there are no ccable targets in the simulation

#

and the apl generally doesnt include any CC abilities

strong rune
#

(does gouge proc it? outlaw will gouge if you have the dirty tricks talent, assuming you're trying to sim M+ or whatever)

round canyon
#

last time i checked, no

maiden cargo
#

interrupts do, could probably code that easily

#

interrupt every x sec

#

You also have problems with simulationcraft it shows I sim 520 k dps while in the morning i've been simming 660 k dps?

sterile jolt
#

theres an open ticket on sephuz actually

#

its in progress, i'll dig it up

#

so yeah, its in there. I haven't checked ot see how its activated. Perhaps add a stun in the APL and see if it comes up.

torn dome
#

@strong rune couge gains combos for outlaw even on boss sims

stark sentinel
#

are nightblooming frond & Draught buggy in sim ? frond sims super high but ingame its only like 3% of total dmg while draught is almost 10% (got the latest nightly build)

quiet belfry
#

on live logs you can see frond doing as high as 8% of total damage

sullen dagger
#

the problem is that it's super inconsistent

#

especially if it procs and you have to target swap

round canyon
#

@torn dome @strong rune
which is an error imo

#

since you cant even get combo points off of bosses with it normally

torn dome
#

ofc

#

Aethys knows this and is on his todolist aswell

strong rune
#

it's not an error, we explicitly document this behavior and tell you not to take dirty tricks if you're simming outlaw in a raid

#

it's perhaps unusual, I guess - is that talent the default in the profile? that could be changed

torn dome
#

o

round canyon
#

i believe the default profile uses no talent at all for that slot

#

but i could be wrong

torn dome
#

Ye could be

#

Just wondering of all the people using /simc to sim themselves

round canyon
#

but importing a character with dirty tricks selected has messed up so many of my sims

#

then i have to change it and resim

torn dome
#

And id bet quite a few default to said talent doing casual content

strong rune
#

to be fair, you can frequently gouge adds in raid encounters

round canyon
#

if i forgot to change it to something other than that of course

strong rune
#

but yeah, that's fair

round canyon
#

im not aware of any add in nighthold that isnt immune to gouge

#

ive tried most of them and cant recall one that i can hit

strong rune
#

Yeah. for raid stuff it should definitely be turned off.

quick heron
#

how can i sim prolonged instead of old war? using the simulationcraft addon to import

round canyon
#

use the armory import instead to get the actions list

#

and you can just change the name of the food/potion/flask

quick heron
#

thanks

raven sage

is convergance of fates simmin wrong

glossy hearth
#

Is sub T19 Set bonuses bugged in simc?, it doesnt increase dmg per cast on night blade at all for 2set

split sorrel
#

@glossy hearth It does for me, from 2M7 to 4M4

glossy hearth
#

Huh, it just stays at 3.2 for me

#

Must be mines thats bugged then, using feaaca0 release

split sorrel
#

it's 2p not 4p, are u sure it's enabled/disabled ?

glossy hearth
#

Thats why i thought it was bugged, when i go down to gear it doesnt look enabled either

#

tried using itemID from wowhead too, to make sure the import wasnt just wonky on me

ashen crater
#

Is subterfuge apl programmed in for multiple target assassination rotation? When I ran 3 target sim with nights nightstalker, garrote was 4.1% of my damage. When I change to subterfuge it only goes up to 4.2%. By my estimates it should almost double, so I think it's only buffing the garrote cast on pull.

split sorrel
#

no @ashen crater

#

but some ppl are working on Assa APL while I'm on others, hope they'll fix it ๐Ÿ˜›

@manic pulsar Someone asked me in #off-topic about RTB rules following your post on MMO-C. What I've found so far (but some things can / might be improved) is that following the SimC APL, w/o Legendaries rules are : TB|2+SiW|3+ and with Bracers and/or Shoulders : TB|3+.
I saw the mention about the fact you didn't take in consideration legendaries because impact is minor, why ?

#

True Bearing is a must have and worth 2+ rerolls with both legendaries

#

@light igloo see my message above

#

I updated the benchmark to T19 and add SnD and Quick Draw override for Greenskin

#

I'm simming it again

edgy ocean
#

My simcraft says i should be doing 495k dps, I do 510k dps on a raid target dummy, but my parse is extremely low even for item level. is my gear just very poorly optimized for my ilvl? or should i be doing a lot more than my sim craft

Hey, can someone here answer me some questions about the Cooldown priorities for Assa in SimC?

#

if i sim myself with mp/vigor/ap and 28% crit and 122 % mastery, i get the statt prio crit>versa>mastery>haste this sounds wrong for me. is this possible or im doing something wrong ?

#

Used nightly build and stats from /simc ingame addon

pallid tapir
#

get a bit of both and mastery should get back to being 1st

spare quiver
#

ok, so just convert some versa/haste to mastery/crit and the sim should fix it ?

pallid tapir
#

I have around 32% crit 9% versa I believe and 130 or 140% mastery

#

mastery sims the highest

#

but the other 2 are really close to it

spare quiver
#

ok i have 28% crit / 122% mastery / 7% versa and 8% haste (because leg neck)

#

i will try to focus more on crit mastery

#

thx

pallid tapir
#

np, but don't trust me at 100%, just keep simming

modern aurora
#

@pallid tapir please don't make statements like 30-38% crit lol

#

but the just keep simming advice is solid ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

pallid tapir
#

I am not sure about the amount, but should just keep simming

#

I kinda made up that number

#

btw, does agonizing increase the dmg already increased by versa?

#

because versa starts simming high very now and then

tribal scroll
#

don't feelycraft in here, especially inaccurately.

#

saying nothing is a lot better than spreading misinformation to look knowledgeable

civic cradle
#

that looks like the priority for exsang

#

you might have simmed with the wrong talent build, check the string makes sure the numbers are pointing to MP / Vigor / AP

strong zinc
#

is there a way to get a BiS list from simcraft ? Like the very best combination of items for the maximum dps possible on single target ?

#

Cause I'm doing it on AMR but I get different results from what I can hear here and on forums

young bison
#

I don't think so. There are too many variables.

strong zinc
#

what do you mean too many variables ?

#

Isn't it the point of simming ?

odd sedge
#

yes the way you do it is try all item variations and then see which one does more dps

young bison
#

Interactions with other items you have, unless you don't keep your gear in bank

#

for example I have 5 trinkets, due to other loot gaining and checking how each of them interacts in coordination with others

#

if I lose crit or mastery on 1 item, I check how will all others behave to check which one is the best. It doesn't mean that the currently equipped will be the best, if it was indeed the best one until your new item dropped.

#

I reckon there will be a bis list when all loot simulations are done; but it also depends on your legendaries

strong zinc
#

Yeah but I mean utlimately

#

If every item is available

#

what would be the best combination

young bison
#

again, it's still too hard due to item upgrades and sockets etc etc etc...
If anything like that is going to be available, my guess will be at least one month.

odd sedge
#

use simcraft to find out, it takes a lot of work

proven dawn
#

If you'd like to generate that feel free but most TCers don't bother because its a huge amount of work for a very minor gain

strong zinc
#

Yeah I guess

young bison
#

It's a pain in the ass to sim things in that amount. Last night I had to sim 14 combinations. I was sick of it after 4th to be honest.

strong zinc
#

I'd just like to know where to go, especially relic wise

proven dawn
strong zinc
#

I dont have boots so i guess it's normal that envenom ones sim higher

#

Thx, I'll check it out

Hey, I hope this is the correct channel.
I tried to improve the stealth_condition with the Mantle legendary and got an DPS increase by about 5% and on average 4 more Vanishes with different gear sets. Could someone check if the modification is correct, because I don't know much about simcraft APL.
I removed Cursed of the Dreadblades from the general stealth condition and added conditions to ambush, vanish and shadowmeld.

actions.stealth=variable,name=stealth_condition,value=(combo_points.deficit>=2+2*(talent.ghostly_strike.enabled&!debuff.ghostly_strike.up)+buff.broadsides.up&energy>60&!buff.jolly_roger.up&!buff.hidden_blade.up)
actions.stealth+=/ambush,if=!buff.curse_of_the_dreadblades.up
actions.stealth+=/vanish,if=variable.stealth_condition,if=!buff.master_assassins_initiative.up
actions.stealth+=/shadowmeld,if=variable.stealth_condition,if=!buff.master_assassins_initiative.up&!buff.vanish.up

There might be a more elegant way to do it and I'm not sure how to add a condition that checks for the Mantle.

split sorrel
#

yes that is/was in my todo list @umbral crag and it's the right channel

#
actions.stealth+=/ambush,if=!buff.curse_of_the_dreadblades.up
actions.stealth+=/vanish,if=variable.stealth_condition
actions.stealth+=/shadowmeld,if=variable.stealth_condition```
#

should do the trick

signal halo
#

@split sorrel thanks. Was hoping there was an easy way to use it haha would be really awesome to be able to have it calculate the best gear combination and weights for me based on the current gear I have in my bags. Obviously it can do this but I fear my knowledge is too limited

late willow

Is it easy to check if Simc has you still melee attacking during Draught of Souls, fel-crazed rage?

split sorrel
#

check logs

#

but it shouldn't

wanton shell
#

shouldn't what?

#

shouhldnt be hard or shouldn't be easy?

late willow
#

You still melee attack during the cast in logs

#

Never thought to check if simc did

#

logs as in warcraft logs

wanton shell
#

give it a sec aethys will see it

umbral crag
#

@split sorrel Thanks for your answer :)
I tried your condition change, but the dps went up by a little less than my modification. Your modification has about 9 vanish uses, mine has 11-12 (20k dps difference) with my gearset, although I don't understand why this is the case. Do you want the results for comparison?

split sorrel
#

nvm

#

wanted to say the reverse

#

you still AA during DoS

wanton shell
#

so the sims do take it under consideration

Heyy, got question. Why is my scales growing up after every item i loot and equip? Agi is now 15, Crit 12.22, Mastery 13. Before the scales were soemthing like 7, 8, 6 etc.

exotic orchid
#

because stats amplify each other

naive birch
#

475 versatility raises your damage 1%. but 1% of 100k is 1k. 1% of 500k is 5k, that same amount of versatility has had 5x more impact. that example is oversimplified, but that's basically why

simple drift
#

This is probably a common question and I apologize if it is. My Simulations are always about 30kish lower than what I actually pull doing 90%ish parse single target. It's been like that since EN released. Is it just a built in problem or am I missing something?

@maiden cargo Super late to the party - but what are you comparing the sims to? A boss or a target dummy? I ask because I've been testing full single target fights to ones where you have to move a little bit. For example, when moving for the bridge breaks on krosus, it looks like melee loose up to 10k dps over about a 5 minute length fight.

wind otter
#

is it possible to modify the assassination apl to "prepare" for the next kingsbane cast by forcing a bleed refresh at ~10s cd on kingsbane remaining and by pooling both energy and CPs in order to get the kingsbane as big as possible?

torn dome
#

yes

wind otter
#

how do you get it to pool energy? the only way I can think of now is to modify the builder list to only use mutilate at a high amount of energy outside of cds

wind otter
#

the biggest result I got out of playing around with the apl is that it uses on use trinkets like kil'jadens burning wish too early - they scale with agonizing poison, so you should wait for 5 stacks for the first use

past radish
#

Im trying to maximize my damage output for Krosus M (360s fight) and im currently looking into the relics I have available, but im having a hard time understanding the results. The difference between 2x MA and 3x MA is an extra 4 second intervall, which shouldnt make a difference in a 6 minute fight (55x6=330 leaving me with 10 seconds to spare if we want to utilize the entire effect of x7 vendettas during the fight). Surely a 895 master alchemist relic would be more than 600 extra dps over a third MA relic at 865.

maiden cargo
#

@past radish it doesnt make a difference because you hold vendetta for kb

#

master alch is really bad

sweet axle
#

I thought vendetta didn't affect KB?

#

Has that changed?

past radish
#

it has

still holly
#

I think they fixed it so it affects it now

barren breach
#

Master alch is really bad?

maiden cargo
#

yes

past radish
#

Yes, I hold vendetta for Kingsbane, but I dont got an extra kingsbane/vendetta with the third MA relic

maiden cargo
#

do you have cof @past radish

past radish
#

no

maiden cargo
#

once you get it i recommend 2 ma 1 rupture or 2 ma 1 envenom %

#

the others arent worth it unless like 925

past radish
#

yeah

still holly
#

I got 3 relics and boots i wait for couple of sec on vendetta to use it with kb

past radish
#

But trying to optimize for this weeks Krosus M, already cleared rest of the content

#

Wont get a cof this week

maiden cargo
#

i would use

#

885 TB

#

or 3 ma

#

for now

past radish
#

Probably, but im not understanding why 3xMA is simming so close when it doesnt get me an extra use

maiden cargo
#

probably makes it so you have to hold vendetta or kb less

#

by making the cooldowns closer

#

compared to 2MA you probably have to delay KB

past radish
#

Yes but im holding KB for vendetta either way, 3x or 2x

maiden cargo
#

right so you have to delay for less time

#

thats why its competative

#

3MA

#

i mean

sweet axle
#

Does anyone know how much boots actually reduced CD of vendetta with 2 MA relics and no cof

maiden cargo
#

the whole APL with boots + relics is weird

#

probably could use optimizing

sweet axle
#

Apl?

past radish
#

And if I dont get an extra vendetta from third MA it wont give me another kingsbane either. Reducing delay time shouldnt matter with the final number of casts is the same at the end of the fight ?

So what is the optimal relic setup for not having boots 3 master assasin? I'm confused :-(

#

Currently I have 3 master assasin 875 885 and 855 should I just replace the 885 with a 890 rupture damage

#

894 ilvl sims out to 456k something is wrong lol

sterile gale
#

well

#

if your stats are shit, traits are low then it makes sense

brazen pond
#

im guessing a 900 envenom relic isnt worth replacing a 895 rupture one, correct?

maiden cargo
#

i think correct

#

rupture dmg is even stronger if u got 2 or more targets ..

brazen pond
#

kk ty

deep torrent
#

when im simming myself do i check the all buff box or just the blood lust one?

serene scarab
#

Actually for Nighthold mythic the envenom relic might be better

#

There are few fights with 2 targets that you get good value from rupture from

maiden cargo
#

are the legendary shoulders correctly implemented in the current simcraft build? looks like its prioritizing nightblade oder eviscerate with the +100% crit, wouldnt eviscerate deal more damage though?

With the assassination ledge boots am I better off with 2 MA Relics and a +52 SE Relic rather then 3 MA Relics but the Blood being a + 45 Relic?

#

yeah, i'm doing some optimizations ;D

split sorrel
#

I have one left, usage of dance during mantle aura

#

Like bactsabbing isn't something good

strong rune
#

i.e. burn charges during the aura

split sorrel
#

You can use mantle_duration to have the full mantle duration

strong rune
#

makes sense.

split sorrel
#

Yes

strong rune
#

combo points are high-value during the aura, so with anticipation you can do things like "bank up" points to have an extra evis to dump

split sorrel
#

0 if not up, and vanish + 6 or 1 + 6 or buff duration

#

Yes

#

Let me push the sprint line

#

So you can work from there

strong rune
#

okay!

maiden cargo
#

seems like vendetta apl needs some work

split sorrel
#

Let me 10mins or so. :)

maiden cargo
#

3MA vs 2MA + 1 other relic shouldnt be 400 difference

split sorrel
#

Someone posted a PR about it frozen

maiden cargo
#

ah

split sorrel
#

I'll merge it aswell

strong rune
#

wait, stupid question

#

i just grabbed head

#

it still looks like master assassin buff is up for eight seconds

#

in game it's six

#

simc:

0:09.038    stealthed    Y    shadowstrike    Fluffy_Pillow    63.4/100: 63% energy | 6.0/10: 60% combo_points    bloodlust, master_of_subtlety_aura, shadow_dance, symbols_of_death, shadow_blades, finality_nightblade(5), darkstrikes, potion_of_the_old_war, darkstrikes_absorb```
#

so it falls off at 8

#

in game:

#

falls off at 6

maiden cargo
#

isnt it 9 seconds from subterfuge ingame?

split sorrel
#

it falls off at 7 on simc atm

strong rune
#

not on the opener, frozen?

#

unless i'm heinously confused by that log

maiden cargo
#

oops sorry, thought you were referring to vanish

strong rune
#

@split sorrel looks like it's coming off at 9s

#

i think we don't want subterfuge applying to the opener mantle aura

#

it doesn't seem to apply on the log at least, unless i'm missing something

#

it definitely is 9s post-vanishes in the middle of a fight, frozen's right

split sorrel
#

oh

maiden cargo
#

i think its the vanish "buff" that causes that interaction

split sorrel
#

I missed one thing

#

in the subterfuge commit

strong rune
#

yeah

split sorrel
#

XD

strong rune
#

๐Ÿ˜„

split sorrel
#

when I commented I must have deleted it

strong rune
#

want to condition that on the vanish bug

split sorrel
#

yes

#

subterfuge on stealth break stealth

#

while on vanish it makes it last fully 3s

strong rune
#

yes.

split sorrel
#

aura works on vanish & stealth only

#

6s buff is triggered at the end of one of them

strong rune
#

seems right. but the buff is triggered after the aura is down

split sorrel
#

also

strong rune
#

I know we hate to talk about openers, but because the mantle is so strong, i've been fussing about with opener logic

split sorrel
#

ingame it represents 7 gcd

strong rune
#

for sub+anticipation, I think strike->strike->strike->goremaw->evis->evis is close to optimal with the mantle

split sorrel
#

I'm recompiling, I'll debug duration if it's bugged

strong rune
#

that's ten CP into two eviscerates, with a GCD of pooling for the first evis if you don't hit an energetic stabbing proc

split sorrel
#

and u sblades after ?

#

except for bracers

#

you sblades after goremaw

strong rune
#

and because of the anticipation bug, the second one hits for 40% more

#

yes

#

immediately after, then dance

#

yeah.

split sorrel
#

looks fine 4 me

strong rune
#

delays nightblade three GCDs, but the two guaranteed crit eviscerates are probably stronger on balance despite the damage per cast time favoring the nightblade

#

let me know when it's clear to pull latest

#

and i'll recompile

split sorrel
#

yes let me some mins

#

for some reason

#

it lasts longer

I don't understand why, the duration is fine for vanishes

#

and I break it on subterfuge

yeah that's still not quite right, is it ๐Ÿค”

split sorrel
#

it is not

#

it's 6s

strong rune
#

right

split sorrel
#

but when subterfuge breaks it, it still lasts 9s

#

while on vanish break, it lasts 6s

strong rune

i think the missing bit is that you need the vanish buff, like frozen said?

#

for it to go 9s?

split sorrel

yes I know that

but it's handled in 2 way

I need to traceback it to understand

but I think I know from where does it comes

it's when we loose vanish & subterfuge (and then stealth)

because both (MoSub & MA) are triggerred / expired

I'll add a buff check and it shouldn't mess anymore

hmm look at draught i think draught could use optimizing, perhaps energy deficit line unless mantle equipped

oh, uh

no

this broke things

it's triggering stealth CDs now during subterfuge

which is not wanted

it's because

of the expression

only stealth

@strong rune i played around with the opener you suggested a bit and i like it so far, but a few questiosn rotation wise, would you use sprint vanish / vanish on cd or only with 10cp stored up for 2x evis?

hallow gull
#

is there any evidence that haste effects poison bomb proc rate? i've seen the idea thrown around here and there but yet to see anything to back it up?

proven dawn
#

Per the tooltip it is a haste scaling RPPM, so it should. Of course working that out is frurstratingly hard

hallow gull
#

so is that actually included in the sims? or is it not really possible to get an actual value

proven dawn
#

It should be included in the sims but @split sorrel would know for sure

#

I don't know my way around the SimC source well enough to say

hallow gull
#

I guess the contribution of haste is very low then, considering the terrible value haste has

torn solar
#

uhh, did AMR get some kind of update that significantly nerfed the effects of CoF for BiB calculations

#

there's no way an 845 trinket is better than that for sin just because it has ~800 mastery on it

#

heck it's not even 800; just 150 (I was looking at the wrong trinket in comparison). Tirathion's Betrayal at 845 with a socket can't possibly be better than CoF making our best CD more effective/frequent

who can I talk to for optimizing the assassination APL?

About what ?

wind otter
#

I have some optimizations that get me and the default gear 2-3k more dps

split sorrel
#

Open an issue or a pull request on Github ๐Ÿ˜‰

wind otter
#

I'm evaluating if it's a gain for more than 1 target as well, then I'll submit it

#

@split sorrel there is something else, but I'm not sure where to start with that, near every on use trinket scales with AP but the apl uses the trinket far too early (in my example kil'jaedens burning wish) it's a dps gain to wait for 5 stacks before using it

hard hull
#

Does subterfuge work with DoS on sims? Does it sim higher if u have dos?

stark moon
#

which simc version are you guys using?

#

715-01?

split sorrel
#

@wind otter you want to add a stack check for AP ?

wind otter
#

that would help, it's already a gain if I just ask for if AP exists on the enemy at all

split sorrel
#

debuff.agonizing_poison.stack>=5should be ok

#

but you need to check if AP or not first ๐Ÿ˜›

#

like, if we are talented into that

#

or

#

debuff.agonizing_poison.stack>=5|!talent.agnonizing_poison.enabled would do the trick

wind otter
#

actions.cds+=/use_item,name=kiljaedens_burning_wish,if=!talent.agonizing_poison.enabled|(talent.agonizing_poison.enabled&debuff.agonizing_poison.stack>=5) the trinket does 20% more damage that way

#

but where do I find the code for the generation? it's a general gain for most on use trinkets (that do straight damage)

split sorrel
#

sc_rogue

#

you don't need the 2nd part

#

actions.cds+=/use_item,name=kiljaedens_burning_wish,if=!talent.agonizing_poison.enabled|debuff.agonizing_poison.stack>=5 is enough

wind otter
#

yes of course, now that you mention it...

split sorrel
#

when !talent.agonizing_poison.enabled is false, it means the reverse is true, so only 1 check is needed ๐Ÿ˜›

#

in case of boolean ofc

hard hull
#

Oh kiljaedens trink is effected by AP?

late willow
#

Yeah

wind otter
#

one more question, I'm nearly finished, can I check for talents directly in the sc_rogue file or do I need to let the APL handle it like this actions.precombat+=/food,if=talent.exanguinate.enabled,name=seedbattered_fish_plate actions.precombat+=/food,if=talent.agonizing_poison.enabled,name=nightborne_delicacy_platter

let the APL handle it

not the module

Would a sim with Draught + leg shoulders be trying to use Vanish/subt sprint for 100% crit on the trinket? I'm not entirely sure how I could see if it's doing this or not :/

#

or at least trying to overlap I suppose

split lintel
#

Can someone help me with simming a draught? When ever I do it it says I need to use item apl. So I pulled it from someone else's profile. But it's still simming the same dps when it was not activating.

#

Thank you. I'll try that out.

#

But is Draught already using the allowing to sprint for a free vanish that might overlap slightly and boost its damage? Is the sim representing it correctly? Or would I take Draught over some trinkets that might sim higher as subt atm?

ornate canopy
#

Please forgive my ignorance but im a bit lost. I have 28k agil, 26% crit and 154% mastery. I play poison build assas, and I feel my dps is low. Ive simmed myself using simulation craft (first time) as i felt my crit was low. Can i ask your advice pls as i really dont know where to look in all that info. I could do with a big red line saying GET MORE CRIT ! or similar ๐Ÿ˜› Is there still a soft cap ? Ive followed the guide to the letter on here and so rotation and talents are all good.... ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

solemn plaza
#

Probably better to ask general, but simming youself with scaling will let you know what you should be getting more of atm

Just do !simc in general

empty igloo
#

For SimC in general, having trouble wrapping my head around how to use it properly. I sim stat weights after every upgrade and use pawn. Yet sometimes it sends me in a circle. Upgrading one piece makes an older piece in my bags better, then I swap those, sim again, and do this three or four times and I'm back to it telling me that original "upgrade" isn't an upgrade anymore. Any advice on this?

strong rune
#

Yes, @empty igloo, that happens when your weights are really close.

#

I assume the piece(s) it's suggesting you circle around on are jewelry?

The short answer is - it probably won't matter which of the pieces you pick.

empty igloo
#

That's what I figured. In my experience, Outlaw doesn't have any strong preference for stats.

strong rune
#

Yep. That's fairly common.

#

Minor un-preference for mastery, but it's not too strong.

empty igloo
#

(which is funny because that's what AMR says is the best stat, but then again, it's AMR...)

strong rune
#

AMR is pretty solid, honestly, and that result is one I'm still trying to debug with Swol.

#

That particular confusing bit has been the case for a while, I'd imagine that it's coming down to minor implementation differences in reaction planning between the sims.

empty igloo
#

Ah. Yeah, I used to use them all the time! But ever since it started promoting mastery I've been weirded out about that.

strong rune
#

At a high level view, the stats are pretty close. We're still trying to figure out what the discrepancy is there.

#

For what it's worth, I fixed a pretty major bug where simc was undervaluing mastery on multiple target fights by a huge amount... last week.

#

So there definitely might still be bugs left in SIMC; rather, I'm sure there are, we just haven't found them yet.

#

But on balance, the two simulators are quite compatible.

#

Zoop, right on cue ๐Ÿ˜‰

reef canyon
#

yeah a lot of people think it's AMR v SimC, when we work together on most specs, helping locate bugs in both sims. The ideal situation is both are bug free.

strong rune
#

^^

empty igloo
#

tbh, that's the impression I got when I started coming to this Discord. I used to trust AMR in WoD before I even knew the discords existed.

strong rune
#

Yep. Keep doing it! We're exploring the search space together!

reef canyon
#

ha, perfect timing right? I just got done spending several hours doing math for tank sims on my (private) krosus script. Needed to READ stuff to get away from so many numbers today ๐Ÿ˜‰

strong rune
#

Go watch La La Land!

#

If you haven't already.

#

(off topic, heh)

empty igloo
#

Certainly appreciate the input. Seems like for Outlaw specifically in a case where the weights are all close, might just default to using higher item level if pawn keeps bouncing me back and forth between two choices?

strong rune
#

I think that's a pretty defensible choice, yeah.

reef canyon
#

@empty igloo Actually, our Machine Learning is ideal for outlaw - stat weights don't handle stat balancing well, but our new Machine Learning approach does. It's in beta, and this is assuming no bugs, but it's been performing well in our outlaw tests so far. If you wanted to check that out. http://blog.askmrrobot.com/machine-learning/

#

And to echo - yeah, the stats are all pretty close for outlaw in our tests too

empty igloo
#

Yeah, I saw that today when I poked my head into AMR to look at some trinkets. So you think this currently works well with classes that don't really have a strong preference? (aka not a fire mage and crit?)

reef canyon
#

The idea is it works well for ALL classes and specs. the TLDR is that it is able to predict your DPS based on any set of stats.

#

We still have some tweaks for tanks - it's not related to machine learning, more how our NPS is handeld. But for DPS it's looking pretty solid. It's still in beta, so we still have more testing to do.

strong rune
#

Yeah. The idea is pretty straightforward: consider a search space in four dimensions (don't squint too hard...). If you'd prefer, you can pretend that there are only three stats (crit, haste, mastery, or whatever).

#

Build a "lattice" out of these points.

#

Take your current stat totals and find your point in this lattice.

#

Then, here's the difference: SIMC looks at the "immediate nearby grid points" to estimate the DPS gradient.

#

AMR samples a very large cloud of gridpoints around you and builds a regressor that estimates their DPS value.

#

(That's the ML part, sort of. The blog post linked covers it in more depth.)

reef canyon
#

yeah, it's actually an easy read - yellow tried to explain it so people who aren't mathematicians (like myself) can understand it.

strong rune
#

Sorry! Mathematician apology here.

reef canyon
#

haha, no it's good to have people like you and yellow who can work on things like this! Then the rest of us are like 'ok, so what does that mean again?'

#

speaking of math, I should get back to it! Lots of krosus data to test before I can make the script public.

empty igloo
#

Appreciate the insight again. I'll try to wrap my brain around the machine learning.

proven dawn
#

I'll point out quickly that I don't think building that regressor adds that much since stat weights tend to be quite stable over a wide variety of gear points given the current lack of (reachable) hard or soft caps. What a regressor will tend to do is avoid the "ringing" in stat ranks but fundamentally that doesn't matter that much and I suspect in general settling in on either side of that ringing will get you as close as a regressor given the error associated with generating it

Btw how is the simc doing with the anticipation talent for sub?

just downloaded newest build, i sim 3k less but ive heard its a dps gain

Anyone tried optimizing apl for 2MA+Boots+cof? Was playing with CoF and DoS a bit and using Lorentz's line as well as adding &cooldown.kingsbane.remains<=5 at the end of actions.cds+=/vendetta,if=!talent.exsanguinate.enabled&(!artifact.urge_to_kill.enabled|(!talent.vigor.enabled&energy.deficit>=85)|(talent.vigor.enabled&energy.deficit>=125+equipped.duskwalkers_footpads)) was a decent dps gain for me.

merry cloud

You missed my post it seems

#

But it was quite long ago

exotic orchid
#

probably

#

so many posts in this channel lately

merry cloud
#

I used <3 instead of <=5

exotic orchid
#

I tried some other numbers too, but <=5 was the best

#

I was thinking its because of kb duration being 14 seconds so if you cast kb at 6 seconds of vendetta it will cover full duration

So, I've just run a sim for myself, and turned on scaling for the relevant stats. I have an x-y plot with all the stats listed. What context am I taking these in? In that "X more mastery means X more DPS?" And is that in a vacuum, or does it assume anything else?

that i dont see exs as being better

hallow gull

when i last simmed my characters exs was slightly ahead in my bleed gear compared to AP in my 140% mastery gear, but in practice it was pulling probably close to 50k less dps in a single target situation

that was a few days after the release of 7.1.5. I must admit i haven't simmed exs since as we can't compete with people in NH on cleave fights anyway and single target AP seems to perform better despite what my sims said

Hey the trinket Sim doesnt include the Legendary Trinket. How does it perform for Sin Rogue?

bleak sky
#

My personal results

#

After simming with the new nightly that includes the KB fix.
Stats: Agility=19504, Crit=6918, Haste =2302, Mastery=11895, Versatility=2356 & 4p. No CoF or Boots

Fight was simulated as 6 minutes with no variation in length. Basically, a patchwork M Krosus. 25k Iterations

Single Target: AP 633k, Alacrity 603k, Exsang 601k
AP still wins ST by more than 5%.

Two target AP 779k (583k MT), Alacrity 771k (568k MT)
AP is superior both overall and on priority target damage

Three target AP 866k (503k MT) Exsanguinate 891k (474k MT)
Exsanguinate wins overall given a 3 target fight. However, AP remains king if we base victory on priority damage.

Given that there are no true three target fights in NH I see no reason to switch from AP at all in NH. (You kill Mythic Bot one at a time and they reset to full after each kill.)

Do someone can check Assa 2PC dmg with and without 5 AP Stacks ? just one muti with 0 AP Stack and one muti with 5 AP Stack
they might have "fixed" it aswell
just do that with a /combatlog uploaded to wcl, will be enough for me to check
Thanks @Dwuu for logs.
To sum up:

  • Kingsbane tick increases on poison application is now only x1 instead of x2 (was a bug fixed in latest hotfix, and is only related to AP).
  • Assa 2PC is still bugged and still double dip on AP.
  • Any SimC nightly that will be published after this message will include the Kingsbane change

it uses kb if vendetta is up or if vendetta cd is 10 sec reminding

i guess its to at least cover the last ticks of vendetta (what are the important ones)

Well, I want to make it fire both off CD. So changing 10 to 0 would make it blow it off cooldown?

no it would only fire it if vendetta is not on cd

"if the reminding cd is higher then 0"

Ah, I see.

If I were to change it to fire off CD, what do I change then?
