Havoc Reborn

Brilliant! It was a Trinket, but for a different reason, I think. I lost Eye Beam at level 116 and didn’t even think about the level. I still have Archimonde’s Hatred Reborn equipped. Even though the ‘Use’ option doesn’t work anymore, it broke the Eye Beam channeling.

Good call on the Trinket though!

ok, which one is OP macro? too many pages here now… XD

Top of the first page. OP means “original post”, in this case.

is it updated in OP? just asking because in your first OP still show old date. :slight_smile:

Thanks for posting this, made some minor tweaks for myself as for some reason it was hanging on immolation aura when it was on CD so i removed that line and manage it manually, along with moving Demonic bite above one line and i have a pretty smooth fury build, then spend.

Using it for leveling and i just mash the button, works great thanks again.

Yeah, no need to update it since that version. I’m still using that exact macro.

Thanks for this macro it works great. If I wanted to add felblade to the macro, could you let me know where the best place to add it would be? thanks!

Since it has a cooldown and doesn’t require anything to cast, I would just add /cast Felblade somewhere in the macro, preferably above the line with Demon’s Bite in it.

I wanted to share some sims I’ve run lately. I’ve ran them in several places, but I wanted to respond sort of in general to a few questions I’ve been getting lately and requests for my opinion.

So let’s start with the sims:
Sims!

This is a sim of my character currently in 336 average ilvl gear. I am built for Mythic/Mythic+ in my gearing strategy, and I also tailored my sims around those battle scenarios since they would most closely represent what we all would experience in questing, reg/heroic dungeons, mythics of course, and future LFR runs. If you are a normal or higher raider, then I expect you to take these results with some salt and sim for your best self, but this is a great cross-section for about 80-90% (arbitrary number) of users.

My interpretation:
First of all, the exploit with Unbound Chaos and Momentum has been fixed as of last Thursday. Don’t do that anymore, it doesn’t work.

That being said, almost everything you are going to be doing will be a mix between AoE and ST fights. Generally almost every pull up until a boss will be AoE, and thankfully for us, the distinction between ST and AoE is very minimal. It comes down to a couple talents, your trinkets, and not much else.

As you can see from the chart, your talents won’t really net you too much more DPS over other combinations, unless you are really bad at lining them up. For example, if you are perfect with Momentum it should net more DPS than Demonic or Nemesis by around 150 DPS. Perfect. Mess it up once and kiss that very small lead goodbye. In contrast, Nemesis will out DPS the others in ST situations almost by a mile, but drops of by a huge percent in any AoE situation, especially when you’re not using it until the boss. Demonic, then, comes off as a middle ground talent. It’s completely passive, buffs both AoE and ST, and does so by an amount that edges out even the best-case use of the other two talents. Again, if you mess up on either of those other talents, you will lose a ton of DPS. Makes Momentum boil down to a trash/quest talent and Nemesis a boss talent, and Demonic an everything talent.

Same goes for Trail of Ruin vs Fel Barrage. For the active effort of holding off on Barrage until it’s optimal you can gain a few hundred in AoE situations, but lose massively in ST ones. You might lead in DPS across a dungeon, but on each boss you won’t be as useful.

Felblade, however, is not balanced in any content. In the above sims, it’s a 400 DPS loss at best, no matter the combination of talents. In detailed views it is close to Blind Fury in ST situations, but Eye Beam’s buff to ST damage still pulls ahead. And in AoE situations? No contest. 5 more critical ticks over X mobs is just still so insane. And if you take Demonic, you get an automatic extra tick of damage for Eye Beam, further pulling it out in the lead.

This is why I am confident I have chosen the very best talents and built the macro around that.

PSA!

PAY ATTENTION!

If you are using ANY LEGION LEGENDARY ITEM YOU WILL BREAK THIS AND ALL OTHER MACROS!

When researching mine and several other user’s issues with both my SPriest and Disc macros, as well as a few others I noticed having issues with other macros, I have found a common thread that I was able to test and definitively find as the cause.

If you are using any of your old legendaries for their item level, they WILL screw over your GCD by attempting active abilities that no longer exist. This is even worse with passive abilities that will attempt to trigger under their normal circumstances, but will flash the error “You are higher than the max usable level for this spell”, which will also interrupt anything that would have triggered that legendary’s ability.

So, don’t do what I did and keep those legendaries equipped. Put them in the bank or get rid of them completely, they will do more harm than good.

because i cant get the proper one working still when ti does it glitches even when i change the appropriately line im using the spam one but im maintaining about 12k dps over 5 minutes on the dps test dummy in dazar’ whatever its called.

345 ilvl

Ive used this Macro with Legendarys up to 120 and for awhile at 120 with 0 problems , so the comment about it not working with Legendarys is wrong , still useing this macro today have only found 1 issue with the macro , every once in awhile the macro will no longer work , its like the button its set on was erased , open GS redrag macro and it works again

It’s not wrong because your legendaries didn’t produce the issue for you. It was, and likely still is, an easily replaceable problem for any legendary that effects a channeled spell in some way. But you do you.

The other issue isn’t a macro issue. It’s also likely not a GSE issue, perse, but you can fix it as simply as opening up GSE and the macro you’re currently using and hitting save, then closing out.

Never!
I get in 5 Minutes with ilvl 360 10k DPS.

I’ll grab some pics tommorow

nvm working good

Hit 120 tonight, and so was testing DPS. These are extremely low iLvl, and so that might make a difference?

288 iLvl , simmed via Raidbots 7k DPS (7034), and on the single raid dummy in our class hall I got 5k DPS.

How much do we expect Lust, food, flask, etc that Raidbots sims with would increase DPS?

Waiting :slight_smile:
Idk how thats possible. With 345 ilvl I got 6-7k ST dps. with 360 ilvl now 10k.

how do i share pics in here

apoliges was 11.4 sustained

Upload to a file sharer and post link.
Which DPS you get with a raidbots sim?

I get 13,2k SIM Dps, but only 9.5-10k on dummy (5 mins)
