Warcraft logs dropped the ball here.

What you should be worried about is why an 862 DH isn't breaking 300K even in a training dummy.

[Dakiri]

People don't seem to be too aware of this, so I'll just point out - if you mouse over the percentages in the "active" column, warcraftlogs will show you the dps that person did while active. It's not super useful most of the time, but it's a big reason why what you see in recount is higher than what you see on the site. You can also see that the hunter clearly died early, he was doing 257k until he died.

The DH OP gets another 20k added to his dps when you only look at time he was active, but he was only active 91% of the time. Some of that is running from platform to platform, but that's still kind of low - my guess is that he spent a little too much time chasing after adds during spider phase and not enough time actually attacking.

So im going to start by saying that dps is absolutely pathetic, im not even sure its possible to down that encounter with such low dps. That rogue was pulling over 300k dps on most bosses so was the druid and i.

Now ill get into my specific log, im the havoc dh Srpouncealot. My dps on the raiding dummy is 245k or so, no food, pots, flask or rune. According to this log i did only 216k overall and like 138k to the boss WHILE using 2 pots, flask, food buff, and eye beam + fury of the illidari on the adds which is a huge dps boost. But hey, according to this log i didnt even use 2 pots, according to this log i only used chaos blades twice on a 6 min pull, according to this i only used meta once like 3 mins in which doesnt make sense whatsoever. Whats more, the boss died shortly after my 2nd meta so im not even sure it was a 6 min pull.

Obviously you can choose to believe what u want, but this log proves to me and everyone in that raid that combat logs are not 100% accurate, or at least warcraft logs isn't. Not all the time anyways.

Looking at all your logs on Warcraftlogs the only time you did more than 300k was on Normal mode.

On heroic you got close to it on bosses with huge cleave targets but u still didn't past it.

As for the log in question the best you did with the Spiderbird boss on heroic is 259k

basically more mechanics is affecting your dps in heroic Just like mine drops a bit lower on mythic bosses because u cant just ignore things that I ignore in heroic mode.

So you got to the 3rd platform on heroic and are surprised to see that the logs say your DPS was really low?

So if you belive something is off.. why the fuck are you crying about it here? Why don't you investigate the log and file a specific bugreport to Kihra? What is the matter with you?

Guys I suck but the logs say I suck more than I rly do, WCL is broken.

[dyzz]

Are the logs hindered by range at all? I know recount will show anomalies sometimes when in 5 mans my damage meter will be different than say my buddy who plays a mages.

Our logs worked fine with M-DoN portals, so I can't imagine distance really causing an issue.

[Mercane]

TIL people care about heroic rankings.

[ddsad2212]

I love how most people agree with OP that the log is wrong yet he never responses to those people. Yes the log is indeed incorrect, this is very likely due to an issue with the combat log that was uploaded as opposed to WCL as it has shown to be very accurate up until this point. Maybe it screwed up here but that would be a once off, as it is a community project ran by one guy maybe drop him an email in regards to this so he can take a look and thank him for the great service he provides us with. Not sure what you expect to happen posting here.

[squee666]

1: You used recount which has always had accuracy issues (espcially since plebs set it to DPS not dmg)
2: other demon hunter meta logged fine
3: you only did 2 chaos blades out of a possible 3


Blame yourself not logs

I believe this thread is about a damage meter ingame that stopped time while you jumped from one side to another and your real dps that are shown on wclogs?!

I mean, something is wrong with the logs. Looking at your shaman, Flametongue was his 5th damaging ability, but the buffs section doesn't even show it being active. My guess is it just got fucked up during uploading.

Here's your first kill in heroic. http://www.checkmywow.com/reports/av...b/178865343/11

Here's the 2nd kill which is normal BTW. Different fight length. http://www.checkmywow.com/reports/hB...2/178865343/11

Here's your latest kill which is almost 2 minutes longer and raid DPS is far lower overall which means different cooldown uptime. http://www.checkmywow.com/reports/ZG...tr/178865343/2

This last fight was by far your worst performance of the 3 which makes sense why your DPS was also lower. It happens.

If you're using Recount your DPS probably showed as 237k. This is due to the way Recount works. Get Skada or Details instead which shows you the DPS throughout the entire fight including downtime.

[Dakiri]

Clearest way to see that the logs are not screwed up: look at total damage done to the boss. Compare it to every other 11 man kill. See that the numbers are almost exactly the same - biggest differences I see from looking at a few are ~80k damage out of a 441M health pool, which is a couple of a hundredths of a percent difference. So it's accounting for the correct amount of damage. Not sure how the logs would miss out on all the abilities OP says he's doing, and yet end up with the exact correct amount of boss damage.

Flametongue buff isn't in logs. That's a bug on Blizzard's end. Anyway, the log is fine.

One week later, practically the same gear, 71k dps more. It was totally me, and not the log...

weird how much faster the boss died for the fight where it says you did more dps. must be something wrong with warcraftlogs though, not your brain

Dude it was obviously you and your group last week. The faster you kill a boss the higher everybody's DPS will appear because you will have a higher uptime on your big damage boosting abilities such as bloodlust, potions, etc. It took your group an extra minute to kill it last time. More mechanics=lower dps and all of that.
