DPS Rankings in Ilvl 553 Gear

[Cremate]

I know we all love to torture ourselves with these charts (and use them to blame for our performance, lol).


These are the SimCrafted DPS Rankings of all classes/specs in an average of 553 ilvl gear.



Sucks to be shadow :-/

@Fire Mages, funny how one nerf to one spell drops us 15 rankings on this chart. gg Blizz

Whoever makes these charts, it's certainly not reflective of our PM team.

Huh. So does Simcraft also know Blizz's magic WW rotation, and they're not sharing?

[Squishesez]

ugh

[Raconlok]

Since we also like seeing what people really do with current gear ...

I was looking at this actually and I don't understand with the high movement fights how an arcane mage can be viable but looks like I'm going back arcane
And Squish!! We ALL love you! Don't believe everything you read /hugs

Keep in mind that this chart reflects full 553 gear... including 2pc and 4pc bonusses. Its not surprising that we dont mirror these results in our actual raid... or on RaidBots that is taking the last two months of ToT raiding into it's calculations.

Blnd Don't forget the first post is Sim DPS, which means it doesn't even calculate movement or human error into it(I think)

I don't know if this one does or doesnt, as I didnt look into it... but SimCraft does allow you to include movement and human error into it now.

I think the most accurate description is looking at raid bots 7 Day Moving Median DPS for 25 man SoO and then looking at it fight by fight. On the fights with adds or multitargets you will see shadow priests preety high up there regardless of what Noxxic (which is preety shit on dps rankings etc. imo ) says, and on the single target fights they are still looking good.
