Now, before someone goes and just links to Azortharion's guide with no critical thinking of their own, I've already read his guide extensively. While he's a good source of information, he's not the only source of information, hence why I'm posting here looking for additional input. Even his own guide is conflicting, because the legendary ranking in the guide does not match his own spreadsheet. The guide has the Apex ring ranked very low, behind even the healing mask, yet the spreadsheet has it higher on the list. Both also rank the legs very highly, yet my own sims always have me losing almost 100k DPS when simming with the legs.
Anyways, onto my specific issue, I do not have the belt, and even then he has the wrists+CoF ranked higher than the belt now, but I just don't see that. But I do have every legendary except that belt, the healing mask and the neck. With that in mind I also have an 895 CoF that I pair with an 895 Bloodthirsty. Up until today, Shoulders+Wrists always simmed highest out of any combination of my gear, but today I got a good, not perfect, but good pair of wrists out of my weekly chest.
Resimming everything, and I always use the latest version of SimC from the nightly builds, Shoulders+Apex Ring is now 5k DPS ahead of Shoulders+Wrists. I already had 910 wrists before today, the ones I got today just had slightly better stat optimization on them. But not significant enough, I would think, to pull ahead of using the legendary wrists.
So my TL/DR would be, is anyone else have the legendary wrists, but not the belt, not using the wrists? Is there a scenario where stat optimization pulls ahead of stacking the CD combo on Aspect of the Wild?
