[PQR] Nilrem Affliction Profile

[nilrem2004]

yes public doesn't have dynamic dot updating and has totally different Haunt usage. Difference is huge. While public will get you through LFR and even some normal raids with more than decent DPS (nobody will complain it's low) since it is based on Simulationcraft, only advanced will give you top performance needed for progress and heroic bosses.
Simulation craft doesn't always account for everything and in this case to put dynamic dot refreshing in simcraft would be maybe too much and would be worth only for simming since human mind cannot calculate combat ratings so fast as computer can. That is why things change when we go beyond simcraft who uses "basic" rotation which is possible by ordinary human

I ran into the following issues tonight:

Elegon Heroic: Doomguard summoned when Energy Charges's are taken to 20%
Garalon Heroic: Doomguard summoned when Leg taken below 20%
Wind Lord Mel'jarak Heroic: Not casting on Wind Lord Mel'jarak, or any adds.

So far the other encounters are working great! Thank you.

Yeah Tekret thanks for reminding me, he summoned Doomguard on Energy Charges reaching 20% last time I ran MSV as well. I forgot that.

Got 2p-bonus yesterday (thanks again Sha!) so I currently have these stats now:

http://www.maskedarmory.com/anonymou...es-110026.html
484ilvl equipped 2p-bonus
Haste - 5405, 12.72%
Hit - 4628, 14.08%
Crit - 1243, 9.42%
Mastery 5872, 55.14%

Sitting at boss-dummys for 29million damage 1 targetted one focused and being around 59k most of the time! Cant wait for raid-time tonight, our other lock has these stats and are most of the time over me by a margin in DPS:

485ilvl equipped 4p-bonus
Haste - 4684, 11.02%
Hit - 5089, 14.97%
Crit - 1509, 9.78%
Mastery - 7359, 62.82%

I've been running with 13% hit rating and prioritizing mastery otherwise, while still hitting the haste breakpoint.

It's interesting you mention the dynamic dot updating Nilrem.
From what I can tell it's still doing fine keeping up everything even with misses.
Maybe that's just from my untrained eye though.
I haven't simcrafted the results with hit cap vs non hit cap.
But since you're saying the difference between them is pretty vast running your basic profile I think I'll try hit capping and see how things go.

Changing doomguard as we speak......

Public profile is based on Simcraft therefore Hit is less important than mastery since simcraft doesn't update dot's dynamically. Dynamic dot updating is in exclusive version only

Doomguard problem solved.
Regarding Wind lord heroic can you give me more details? Are you in charge for SPEAR? did you have a target in focus?

Can you explain the difference between dynamic dot updating vs non dynamic?
I'm starting heroic progression soon and need to upgrade to exclusive if it's that significant of a difference.

No focus target, and I'm not in charge of a spear. Nothing I targeted was being attacked. I ended up going to the old multidot version and it worked fine.

[Tekret]

I seem to be having pausing issues.. is it possible the new shock-charger medallion trinket is giving the profile issues?

[nilrem2004]

Maybe, try without it and see if it works, let me know since I don't have trinket and I can't test it.

[novicane]

leveling my lock now and interested in this profile once i hit 90. I'm new to Affliction--

I know the shadow priest profile is nice in that i can simply just mouse over something and it will handle the power word dot for me. I noticed in this profile i would have to press shift or just tab around? Not sure how this profile handles DoTs on other targets outside of your main target.

[Ninjaderp]

novicane, EVERYTHING the profiles does says in the first post.

you're right - im retarded.

- DoT's on mouseover with prio on maintaining DoT's on target
