Has anyone else looked at their logs for the proc rate on the 4 piece tier bonus? I have been looking at the logs for Palace and the rate seems well short of the 25% in the tooltip. Maybe someone can point out something I am doing wrong or not considering.
I do understand that due to various factors that all equate to being a human, I am not going to perfectly hit the 25%. My experience though, over the course of the night I am normally averaging a 14% proc rate.
I am using:
Blade Rhapsody divided by
(Chaos Strike + Annihilation).
For example, my last raid we cleared Princess, Silken Court and Queen (our first kill) on heroic. 46 total procs of BR and 322 CS + Ann. 14.29%
We do have another DH, and he was at 14.9% on the night. I have looked up other on Warcraftlogs and found similar numbers. I feel like I am missing something obvious. Is it like this on other classes with 25% procs?

Probably bugged like everything else in our class.

It’s not a true 25%.
If Blade Dance CD is less than 3 seconds or Death Sweep CD is less than 2 seconds, the tier cannot proc.

In other words, about 80% of the time, it can proc 25% of the time…

I just dropped 4-set. I am much more focused on globals aside from CS and BD in PVP, so I’d rather beef up my stats for the other abilities.
10% buff on annihilation is too good to pass you cannot drop 4-set
Is it the full 10% in PVP? And does it make up for the increased mastery (which is extra damage for all abilities). Lastly, annihilation/chaos strike is pretty low on my damage meter in PVP.
I can’t speak for PvP, but in PvE the tier set is a 10%~ gain, its just too strong to remove.

Agreed. The class feels broken. I’ve been listening and reading that our procs dont function like the tooltip claims. Also I feel weaker since last update.
Not only is the rotation still bad.
Now the talent tree abilities are broken too.

The Focused Hatred change that was supposed to help us is bugged. Instead of the decrease starting at each additional target, it starts at 1 target, so in single target demonsurge is now getting a 40% bonus instead of a 50% bonus.
On top of that, there was a change to demonic intensity so that the first demonsurge does not get the benefit. Personally i think this one was a stealth bug fix, since i dont see why the first demonsurge would have the buff given the wording of the talent, but since we werent told about it by blizzard and it was an unneeded nerf who really knows. Here’s the explanation from the havoc disc:
“demonic intensity was stealth changed to not apply to the demonsurge that procced it. So our first demonsurge in our opener is unbuffed, we get 10% for our next, but then the 20% buff gets munched by meta and therefore the final 5th DS after meta is only getting 40% rather than 50%. It did not work this way prior to the focused hatred change”
So yeah in single target your last demonsurge gets two 40% buffs (focused hatred and demonic intensity) now instead of two 50% buffs, and each one before it is weaker too.

It’s my top damage ability in every single one of my games.
You must be aldrachi?
It’s way down the list for me, only doing 5-6% of my dmg as FS
Yes i confirm, i don’t like FS at all

I am moving into as much mastery as possible and then haste at the expense of vers.
We’ll see how it goes.
60% of the time it works every time.
