So the first thing I'm doing is looking at wowanalyzer to get a general idea, and the thing that leaps out to me (looking at vexie for now) is that your execute phase seems to be the biggest rotational issue. It says 40% of the time you are not casting mortal strike with 2 stacks of exe precision. And 60% you're not casting execute when available. That's a lot of damage you're leaving on the table. Arms is usually (in my experience) middle of the pack to upper in damage then execute you make up a lot of damage. So in execute you get into the rhythm of hitting executes and then mortal strike. Rinse and repeat. You only break this to cast overpower with the opportunist buff as soon as it comes up (which it looks like you try to do) or if you don't have the rage to keep the rhythm then you cast overpower for rage and back to the rhythm again. Id say focus on that in your next raid night. I'll look over the other fights omw home from work and see if anything else jumps out at me.

So I've had a quick look at your other fights. On rik, you'll see you parsed well. You had high Uptime and your execute phase was substantially better. On sprocket you had a LOT of downtime, and your execute phase was off again. Those two fights have wildly different parses.

#

Its the sams on your one armed bandit

#

I personally have a weakaura flash EXECUTE as soon as the boss hits 35% and the moment i see it, I know that I need to change my rotation to the execute priority

#

To summarise execute rotation.

  1. Overpower with the opportunist buff
  2. mortal strike with two stacks of the executioners precision buff
  3. execute
  4. overpower for filler

In general this will look something like
Exe > exe > OP > MS > Exe > exe > MS > Exe > OP > exe > MS........
The OP is ONLY when you have opportunist buff.

If you have any questions about the interactions feel free to message here or DM me. I'm no master arms player but I'm happy to help out a fellow arms enjoyer

MS with 2x EP > opport

for arms

Ive been going off of wow analyser to keep my rotation straight. That robot says using opportunist procs comes first.

#

I think it smooths out the rotation and keeps you in the rhythm for longer

wowa isnt up to date yet

#

bowl still hasnt implemented proper rage wasting after bladestorm as fury

#

for example

urban socket
#

It says its been updated for 11.1.5

#

bro bowl is in our chats every now and then, he told us that hes been busy with work as recently as yesterday

#

trust the APL more than wowa

urban socket
#

APL?

abstract sentinel
#

action priority list, the system that sims are based on

#

aka the most up-to-date damage priority

#

outside execute phase, I press MS or Overpower (with 2 available) without opport ?

abstract sentinel
#

this is outside of execute phase

flat crown
#

I asked because there is another guide out there that is a little bit diff

#

maxroll one

#

like is almost the same

#

but not quite when comes to overpower

abstract sentinel
#

maxroll is based off vibes

#

a bit more

#

than potential max dps priority list

flat crown
#

I see

#

I'll stop tracking 2p and 4p them haha

#

less stuff on UI, good thing
