Shadowcraft v.s. Simcraft v.s. mrRobot

Ill wait till the new system rolls out to test NBF ranking again. My issue has been that amr was removing my 875 CoF (upgraded it to heroic this week) and recommending 890 NBF and 895 BTI(i think) instead of 875 CoF and the KBW that i'm using now.

So it would swap KBW for the insignia of ravenholdt, and swap out 875 CoF for the 890 NBF.

Real-world results for NBF have been extremely low each time i've used it. (As sub). I'm using KBW over insignia for the agility and stat increases it provides., 2.9k agility is immensely valuable, especially considering the alternative has 0 agi.

Anyways, ill wait for the new system and do another round of testing to see how the BiB suggestions pan out.

@kidstechno Good news, the new tweaks on the gearing strategies gets your trinkets right! I haven't tested it on your character yet though @elfporn. We have a few more things to troubleshoot before updating the code, but we hope to do it tonight or tomorrow. Definitely by week's end.

@kidstechno - I haven't had a chance to review this for more than a quick 10 seconds, but you were the first gearing strat I ran after we put the update live So far, it looks good - the right trinkets are listed! http://www.askmrrobot.com/wow/simula...d8d1e087c89d0c

I'll review it more thoroughly soon.
@elfporn - the update is live. Instead of selecting 'gearing strategy' in the sim type, look for the BETA gearing strat at the bottom of the dropdown list instead. Same goes for you, @kidstechno if you wanted to run your own again.

can you check mine ?

it still keep saying i should use other trinkets that could give me 10k + dps when in fact i lose 8k.

or relics... it says i should use Master Alchemist instead of Master Assassin also a BIG DPS loss

i think relics are only counting the item level and ignoring the traints.

heres my report.

I use SimC. Pretty straightforward and pretty accurate results imo.
Sure... it has some flaws. For example not using shoulders + subterfudge properly - but I dont mind because I dont have shoulders yet.
And ye... some trinkets are not getting handled correctly (even though you can implement some "use-actions" for it).

But for me, in most cases its about small decisions (thats because I already got 910~ equiped GS and there are not many changes anymore).

With the "SimC" Addon its pretty easy to edit the Simulation text (type /simc ingame). So... ye - for me thats enough - I dont need anything else

Regarding AMR: I was trying it out some months ago and the damage calculations were totally off. But maybe that changed by now but I have no need for it as I am used to SimC now.

I had the opposite happen, simc was way off for me, and i started using amr with more accurate results. Its features are also a bit nicer and easier to use(imo). It was also easier for me to create my own boss scripts and rotations to run through amr.

@scarfdeath - First I want to ask - is this based off a custom gearing strat, the ones that take about an hour to run? If not, give it a shot: http://i.imgur.com/r2gpuBW.jpg
BUT - where it says to select the 'gearing strategy' sim type, select the beta one at the bottom of the dropdown instead.

If you have based it on a custom strat - was this one you ran before late last night?

I can run it for you, it will just be later, after my computer is done running some other tests (it's chugging away all day).

i think i'm using a old custom gearing strat.
maybe ( probably) i did something wrong. if you could do it for me would be great.

also take your time no need to rush anything to do it

thanks again for the amazing suport you've beein doing
