    I wish I knew how to figure out what exactly I'm fucking up so bad about my rotation to put me way under what I sim at when we're doing higher m+ keys like that

    I don't think you'll find a single player that achieves the dps they sim at.

    yeah but like that motherlode 12 was pretty significantly under, my DPS for the dungeon as a whole was like 17k and I sim 23k

    so clearly I'm doing something v wrong

    the sims are against target dummies also so your expected DPS in real dungeon/raid environments is naturally gonna be a lot lower with doing mechanics and frequent movement and not every fight having bloodlust and cooldowns up and etc.

    yeah but I tried to mitigate that by like...simming no buffs and using dungeon slice

    ultimately the answer is probably just get good, just working on the path of....doing that

    You seem okay, unbuffed single target DPS was like 15k and fully raid buffed all the extras was 20k. What are you pulling on a 4-5 trash pack and a boss with minimal movement?

    first boss of underrot was 12k, the first real trashpull of underrot (the like 4 or 5 things on teeming at the entrance area once you're past the ticks) was like....18k? I don't remember exactly because Details didn't save it even though I thought it would

    I don't know enough Ret to give specific feedback, but you might try emulating Lightee, a (currently?) paladin playing on jdotb's MDI team.

    yeah you're never gonna actually pull the sim's exact number I'm pretty sure so that doesn't sound wrong

    I'm also pretty bad at giving advice without like, specific questions so idk. you seem to be doing fine though from what I can tell

    i'm basically just trying to minimize the numbers gap between me and people much better than me. some of that is obviously just that most of your skill levels are a lot higher than me (and a tiny bit is probably the like 5-7 ilvl difference) but I figure the more I can learn/watch the more I can improve on other than just getting better at positioning and how much damage I take

    i am relatively huge and full of sockets this is true

    i may have different talents though, if you're using crusade still it is good now but has little room for error so that could be one thing

    I just play easy mode with blade of wrath and divine purpose. No extra buttons and lots of opportunity for extra procs to make numbers suddenly go big.

    thats what im using now because with enough crit/haste gear specifically and multiple stacks of the expurgation trait you get a lot of mileage out of hammering the BoJ button for critical strikes

    Yeah see I have lots of haste but just not enough critical to do that build yet

    I swap between crusade and Inquisition, usually crusade with pugs for the practice and Inquisition when I'm doing shambler stuff to avoid missing and being more sub-optimal haha

    prot paladins always register super high on that metric, I'm not sure if it's recording actual interrupts or just every time shield throw lands a silence even if there was no cast going on

    actual interrupts, prot paladin will always have the most because of shield CD resets

    Yeah, Shirls was an interrupt hog and didn't give those poor pugs a chance

    yeah that sounds about right

    you missed out on the crusade build prior to nerfing the damage on light's decree, it was really good with multiple stacks for those few weeks

    I dont know why these images ended up being so absolutely huge. Im pretty sure I never made them larger at any point. Technology is stupid. Regardless this is Morgan. She does two things.

    1. Looks at me with her judging eyes

    2. Sleeping with her tongue out.

    Windwalker is getting buffed in 8.1.5 thanks to some bug fixes. Currently, Storm Earth and Fire improperly calculates spinning crane kick modifiers and Dance of Chi-Ji. This is being fixed, which will result in a substantial increase in AOE power during SEF.

    She's a Siberian Husky. Got her from a family that had quite a few, in Oregon. They'd take them out to pull a sled every year.

    Ours is lazy, though. Fetch a toy 8-10 times? Oof too much, gotta lay down.

    Apparently WoD Timewalking is adding BoA rep tokens for the factions that cost 50 tw tokens and give you 300 rep a pop

    So if you have a bunch of Timewalking tokens and don't have flying in draenor and really want it it's gonna be considerably easier to get those three factions to revered
