Looking to play a new class, and was wanting to sim some various build ideas. Obviously, I dont have a character with the build to load into something. Are there any sim tools that just let you load in a talent build?
I know gear makes a huge difference, but im mainly wanting to just see how various talents perform against each other.
You’d have to get a string for it. The rogue discord I know has multiple strings for different builds, not sure on many others.
Best bet would prob be to get a buddy and use his string, would give you a general idea.
To sim builds with RaidBots, you have to have the loadouts set up on your character.
Doesn’t look like you can… you do need a character string from the SimC add-on in-game to use Top Gear, which is the option to let you tweak talent builds.
I tried just looking up a top-rank rogue in Warcraft Logs and then using the Armory data for a Quick Sim, but the raw input from a Quick Sim done with the armory is not compatible with Top Gear input.
Here’s a SimC input for my L70 outlaw rogue (she doesn’t have any decent gear but it’s apples-to-apples if you just compare talent builds).

# Checksum: 5f65eda1Thanks.
I know im on my rogue, so im absolutely gonna test this.
The class I was actually looking to sim was an enhancement shaman though
At least I know it can be done with the simc data given from someone else. I can just replace the talent string with whatever i create.
