Upcoming Haste Scaling

[Purpleisbetter]

Hi there, i wanted to ask, since i'm a very bad theorycrafter and weak on math, is the haste scaling hotifx going to change our stats prio?

Did anyone test this yet thru simcraft?

[Adaren]

Old:

Haste >>>>>>>>> Multistrike > Vers > Crit >>>>>>> Mastery

New:

Haste >>>>>>>>>>>> Multistrike > Vers > Crit >>>>>>> Mastery

At least that's what I'd assume. Haven't run any sims or anything.

The Haste change also just puts Ascension further ahead, assuming the 6.0 Guide is accurate and Ascension > Power Strikes.

[Purpleisbetter]

Yeah but by the looks of it, that's the good-to-go stats prio for Ascension+ChiEx.

Curious about if it will outperform Serenity in pure single target.

[Adaren]

My bad! I didn't realize that ChiEx was previously only ahead on AoE; I thought it was ahead on single target as well.

First up, ChiX should not be used for Single target. ChiX should be used for AoE/Cleave situations

Secondly, I'm still running sims. These are currently the early testing

Serenity + Chi Brew:

MS > Haste > vers/Crit >>> Mastery

Serenity + Ascension:

MS > Vers/Haste/Crit >>> Mastery

ChiX:

Haste > MS > Vers/Crit >>> Mastery

The reason for the difference for Serenity is that with Ascension, you are more likely to be hitting energy cap longer and thus the lower value to haste.

[Purpleisbetter]

If that's will be confirmed by your further simming, MS+Haste with just talent swapping.

It makes gearing easier.

So nothing changed.

[Hinalover]

So nothing changed.

If you have been following a general MS + Haste priority, then no, nothing changes. If you have been following a MS > Vers/Crit > Haste >>> Mastery priority, then Haste jumps up.

What spec is this for? Guessing WW?

Do any other specs exist?

(yes)

Out of interest, do adds and bosses etc have stat values? Will everyone else's attack speed etc be going up too, or are they set values rather than having a "character sheet"?

I could be wrong, but I thought boss attacks were on swingtimers and abilities on set CDs. Could be wrong.
