Middle of TOS I decided to make a moonkin alt, my main is an affliction warlock. I figured a lot of what I know about playing affliction would carry over to moonkin.
I have fairly little problem getting 95+ percentile on my warlock in mythic antorus, and I had no problem doing it in ToS. So I wouldn't really consider myself bad at the game.
But my numbers suck on my moonkin right now and I just don't get it. The rotation seems absurdly easy but my numbers are still just pretty low. I told myself it was legendaries but the only one I'm really missing now is oneth's intuition and I don't see how that would make up for the deficit.
For example, on gorothi, my moonkin seems to cap out at about 1.5 or 1.6 million, which is about what I sim at. My warlock has no problem breaking 2 million.
Is it just secondary stat scaling? I noticed when I compared stat weights my warlock gains about 50 dps per secondary stat and my moonkin gains 26.
