And I’m certain the devs do not know how to play the classes they develop.
I’ve been on the ptr for some weeks now, and my regular parses with no buffs, no enchants in dornagal
Over a 4 min period
Frostburn st- 5.5 million
Breath st-------3.8 million
1 button
1.8 million/ 1.1 million
With uhdk
Not sure what you call the spec, but middle and far right capstone’s
My rotation
2.9 million
1 button
1.2 million
And that’s withe.manualy activating trinkets and some CDs like runic power for frost.
Again, I’m not the best do player, but Lord Almighty new or bad players I’m sure can beat those parses with their own versions of what they are supposed to do
You tried the one button assist and are confused as to why youre not doing damage? You know that thing was added for literal parapalegic people to be able to do daily quests or whatever right?
It also has a longer global cooldown between abilities. It literally isnt supposed to do competitive damage.

Except its actually performing well, like very well. People have been completing like +17’s as the top dps using the single target rotation.
I guarantee that this guy didnt use DPS CD’s which the 1 button rotation doesnt do.
I mean, it’s designed for people who either have physical difficulties, and for those who are just casually playing a class they don’t know. I’m assuming you know how to play the class in spec you we’re testing this on. If I were to use it on the DK or on my warrior, I would absolutely see a drop in DPS. But I have used it on the Druid that I’ve basically never played and it did a better job than I could because I don’t know how to play it.
It’s an assistant, not a replacement.

Take into account 1 button has longer GCD ofc. Also it’s for disabled people, LFR, and drooling your way through timewalking + Delves. I just wish the hold to repeat casting worked with melee abilities, or at all for that matter.
Its not so long that it will completely destroy your damage, especially on casters. You do have to use your CD’s though. If you arent doing that then your damage will fall flat.
The only CD I see that doest fire is empowered rune weapon
In fact if you feel I don’t know what the helll I’m doing here the macro I made
/Target enemy [no harm,dead]
/Startattack
/Cast [mod:alt, combat, nochanneling] empowered rune weapon
/Cast [mod:shift] abomination limb
/Use [@player] 13
/Use [@player] 14
/Cast single-butron assistant
If you want to control your big damage CDs before 1 button can activate,
You can add the line
/Castsequence [mod:Ctrl] pillar of frost, reaper’s mark, breath of sindeagosa as these will line up every 45s
Remove bos if you doing frostburn build
For frost
It’s a bit different for uh
The real bottom line is the damage shouldn’t be as bad as it is.
I really.dont care about hurting elite players feelings.
Everyone who plays this game should be able to parse blue or better, period.
This isn’t the type of souls like game where skill is really needed
I.main paladin and parse.purplenronoramge in mplus and raids
Yeah, you dont know what you are doing with the tool.
Have no clue what “frostburn” is outside of Hyperpyrexia. Dont know why you still have Abomination Limb in a macro, why you would have 2 on use trinkets.
You should not be losing 67% damage using 1 button. Frost is estimated a 17% reduction from peak performance. Shattering is a 20% reduction from peak performance.
Your “frostburn” spec, whatever that is, should be arount 4.5m dps.
BoS should be 3.1m dps or roughly as well.
The one button rotation, unless you are doing something extremely wrong, the majority of people should be seeing a pretty big dps boost from what they are doing, even blue parsers.
Ive heard that before, and they have been bad players that didnt get blue parses.
im sure he meant frostbane, which is really strong on the ptr atm.
abom limb is because the icon hasnt changed , that was my bad,
I keep thinking its abom limb but its legion of souls, however the activation graphic is that exact same as abom limb-- so it looks and feel like limb.
Anyhow, the macro can be used with all 3 specs.
Also just because you have 2
/use commands for trinkets, doest mean you have to use 2 on demand trinkets.
its there to activate them if you have them, and if you dont it doesnt do anything.
and yes, the dps swing is enormous.
im on the ptr right now, and UHDK
is stuggling to keep 1.8 million dps on ST.
So just wasted effort.
Just have 1 slot for an on use. All you need is /use 14 and then put your on use on that one.
Its actually not. Might be for you, but its not that large.
YOU are stuggling to keep 1.8m dps.
The rough dps loss for Unholy, is 15% for Rider and 24% for San’layn under what the sims are giving using CD’s on cooldown or sub-optimally. If you are using CD’s properly you shouldnt be losing that much damage.
So how you are getting 1.8m damage for unholy which is less than just an average player kind of defeats the entire point of this assistant.
Why punish the people that this tool is for so much to the point that you wouldnt want to bring them?
The fact is however that the majority of people are seeing better performance by just pressing the 1 button and using CD’s properly or even just on CD. The one button assistant is allowing people to focus more on the fight.
The people that this is going to impact are the very top, and even they wont be seeing a 50% damage nerf (or more) using the 1 button assist.
Yeah everyone who plays this game can blue parse or better if they actually press their buttons. It isnt some “elitest” perspective that if someone literally presses one button they shouldnt do good damage.

Thats not the claim though. The claim is that the 1 button assist is doing less than average DPS, cutting sim damage by almost 70%… but that just isnt the case.
If people can do a +17 with the 1 button assist and completely dumpster others that are “playing the game” then people seeing a 67% damage reduction is doing something wrong big time.
Link this “17 where one button assist guy is DUMPSTERING EVERYONE ELSE” or else stop responding

There you do buddy boy. Now what are you going to try to cope about?
found a short of a frosty doing a rotation on a dummy

How could I be the problem with 1 button assist doing lousy damage lol
Same elitist baloney and jargon that brings nothing to the table
You press the 1 button.
Don’t blame the player for the poor performance when it’s the 1 button.
I know you want to try adding somewhere here
Learn to play, as every person who believes themselves to be a ce type player.
However it’s the 1button doing the work and the results.
The point of this whole post was to bring to light that the devs who make the classes and insert the rotations to the 1 button, have zero idea how to play and implement the class they designed .
Of course I can play without it, I was just shocked at how off the damage really is.
As far as sims
I put no creedance in them
I’m probably going to main havoc s3, and ATM I sim 2.54 million dps using full raid buffs
Yet when I actually do the raid my damage is 3.8 to 4.5 million in boss fights at ilvl 673.
It’s sad that you don’t realize you’re the problem. You clearly don’t understand how the one button rotation assist works. It’s been pointed out to you. And instead of admitting you had no idea how it worked, you’re doubling down. Then again, if I parsed all green I’d probably say I didn’t believe in sims either…
