Scarlet Enclave Parsing Update,

We are planning on doing parsing rules only for the 20 man category in SE , these will hopefully be added within the next week, and then we will recrawl and rebuild history (FOR 20 MAN ONLY).

Planned changes:,

Balnazzar:

  • Remove damage done to Infernals ID 243011 and Screeching Terrors ID 243007, include for tanks,
  • Remove damage done to Mind Controlled Players,
  • Remove damage done to Shade of Balnazzar, ID 243100,

Beatrix:

  • Downtime until first High Commander Beatrix event (that isn’t Out of Bounds ID 1235571),
  • Exclude damage done to all adds except Beatrix,

Potentially remove from ASP instead. Mason:

  • Remove damage done to Eastsea Cannoneer and Eastsea Scallywag (ID 244122, 242853), include for tanks,

Solistrasza:

  • Remove damage to Lightgorged Whelps ID 243139, include for tanks,

Beastmaster: No changes Reborn Council: No changes Lilian Voss: No changes Caldoran:

  • Add downtime from players getting debuff “Blessed Fetters” (ID 1230276) to Caldoran’s next cast of Cessation or Blade of Malice (ID 1230697, 1229462),
  • Remove damage to all adds except Ashbringer (Scarlet Martyr, Scarlet Hollow, Scarlet Magus, Scarlet Ravager, IDs: 242062, 242510, 242098, 242092), include for tanks

So if you want to parse adds are someone else’s problem. Got it.

Yeah parsing has been a meme in SE for awhile now. This kinda just makes it worse.

I’ll never understand these parsing rules when especially in classic adds are considered a part of mechanics.

Adds need to die

Even more so in SE than any other raid hence the emphasis on cleave damage in various DPS set bonuses.

This is why the community has hated parsing for a while now. Meta chasers will check who’s parsing and doing the most “logged” damage and those classes get brought over others. Skewing numbers in favor of raw single target damage is the worst . The people running warcraft logs are the real problem.

its because people cheese them - but honestly, top parses are all a big cheese anyway

but with adds being included in parses, people have to be in raids that have everyone else not dpsing the adds so that the parsers can fluff their numbers, and things like that

Adds die passively to ashbringers, ranged hunter passive cleave etc. It make sense and this is only for 20man anyways.
