A DPS Simulator 2 - SimFF

Is it just me, or does Skillspeed scale less now?

446 SS was 2.4GCD. I'm now 511 SS with 2.42 GCD. Anyone else noticed it?

[Viridiana]

Well, the old rate was based off of a 341 base, so. . .

[Dervy]

I did expect the base SS to change, obviously, but I didn't expect it to change this dramatically... Interesting.

If WoW is anything to go by, the effectiveness of secondary stats got basically cut to one third or more by the time you hit the level new cap to prevent you from getting 100% crit and so when expansions hit.

[SunnyHirose]

The mathematical significance of base values isn't all that clear to us, other than that it counts for food buffs. Perhaps crit and speed formulas for level 60 will elucidate this; at levels 1-49 it was impossible and/or counterproductive to stack enough secondary stats to get a good reading.

Someone tell me what the new DRG skills are and what they do please!

Also more delay information.

Also new AA formula.

Also obviously new formulas in general.

Blood of the Dragoon has a 15s duration (60s cooldown), which can be extended up to a maximum of 30s. When you have the buff up and you use a Chaos Thrust or Full Thrust, you have a 50/50 chance of procing either Fang & Claw, or a Wheeling Thrust, 290 potency. It's all RNG. They both increase BotD by 15s. Geirskogul reduces cooldown by 10s, but is an off-cooldown 200 potency skill.

You open up with Heavy Thrust -> Impulse Drive -> Disembowel -> Blood of the Dragon -> Chaos Thrust.

4 = 4th Tier Combo, either F&C or WT.

The rotation is basically HT -> ICD4 -> Geirskogul -> PH -> TTT4, repeat, then use BotD at the right time again. But it's very volatile to skillspeed and that's one of the issues we have at the moment.

Well, I'll be 60 tomorrow and can start working on the damage formula in my spare time. . .

[Dervy]

Aren't you doing Crit stuff also? I could work on the DMG formula this week. I'm 60 and I'll be grinding out a lot of gear later on today. I still need to finish off Job Coefficient's, so might as well kill two birds with one stone.

That's the plan. I mean, I'll probably try to multitask if I can, but crit will be the priority. On that note, how many swings is good to establish a crit %?
