Gropes 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2015 Hey there, I was curious if anyone could go over my logs and give me an idea as to why my DPS is so low. I feel like I should be performing better with my current gear and I believe I'm doing my rotation properly.Attatching a Gruul kill for referencehttp://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/i2xnws3o6w5zvkta/sum/damageDone/?s=1910&e=2165And Armory just in casehttp://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/malganis/Stevenfry/simple Thanks in advance!

Sajakain 104 Report post Posted May 20, 2015 Ouch. The first thing you need to do (and I apologize for the inconvenience) is upload your logs to Warcraft Logs. I will say, upfront, though that I did the following: Your fight is recorded at 4:15 in length. That's 255 seconds. I did a simulation with your current armory at 250 seconds in length and it says you should be around 31,965.6 DPS(e). This is assuming it's a "Patchwerk" style fight (which - let's face it - Gruul is about as close as we're gonna get to this style), your rotation is executed perfectly, you have about 50ms in latency, and you used pots appropriately. The WoL you uploaded says you have 29,795.1 DPS(e). That's an amazing 93% efficiency rate compared to simulated perfection. You're doing something right. With a Warcraft Log resource I can dig deeper into things but, just based off this, I would say you're doing most things correctly (if not everything) and your DPS may just stem from playing Arms on a single target encounter. Arms really shines in multi-target encounters; for single target you want to play Fury but - hey - Arms is the best spec to play anyway, right? =D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: Looks like someone else in the guild was nice enough to upload one last night https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/DdqJ39cAXWV8hpK7#fight=7&type=damage-done&target=57&source=17 Edited May 20, 2015 by Gropes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
