Is there a reason my ilvl parse would be lower than my overall parse? When I look at my raid all together, not a single person has a lower ilvl parse than their overall parse. Yet for me, there’s a huge difference. My overall parse is 46% but my ilvl parse is 21%. Is there a reason for this? It seems pretty backwards.
Because you’re getting carried.
For all ILs, you’re doing better than people undergeared than you.
But for people equally as geared as you, you suck comparatively.
Sounds like the rest of your raid is carrying themselves.

but yet i was in the top 3 dps the whole raid that’s why i’m confused
Doesn’t matter to parses
Say there are 100 spots.
You do 40,000 dps, and land at spot 50, that gives you a 50% overall parse.
Say another raider, a sub rogue, does 34,000 dps. His “parse” is measured against all other sub rogues, and out of the 100, he got spot 48. That would give him a 52% overall, thus ranking him above you in score, but below you on meters.
His dps is measured against players playing his spec, and you vs yours.
On a fight that has a lot of add cleave for example, multi dot and heavy cleave classes will shine, but purely single target classes will not. It wouldn’t be fair to rate them the same
Edit*
You also are not ending in top 3 dps anywhere on these reports:

In fact, you ended up below healers in some cases.

Just means the rest of the group is doing significantly low dmg. How ilcl pharse work is it compare you w/ everyone who is logging w/ the same ilvl as you. So overall you’re phasing 46 for every spec. But if you compress the group that’s just your ilvl you’re doing significantly worst than everyone else
those are old logs from before i respecced and worked on my rotation
Overall compares you against all characters in your spec, regardless of gear level. ilvl bracket parses only compare you to other people in your gear bracket.
It can indicate that you are playing worse than your immediate peers, but BfA has so much passive damgae, that it’s not always the case. Ilvl kind of means jack right now because of traits and corruption. Your itemization could be bad, you could have bad corruptions, etc. I dont have your logs in front of me, I can’t tell you why you’re low in bracket.

Honestly… with corruption the way it is… ilvl parses (and parses in general) mean very little.
Plug your log into wowanalyzer. If you see loads of red with nothing to explain it, then you have stuff to work on. If not, then I wouldn’t worry about it.

thats also a log from a heroic carry. my guild is working on normal progression
Why even link the carry log in the first place? they’re straight up worthless in determining what your actual play level is. Fight times are warped in carry runs.
EDIT: it was the other guy. my bad.
Well looking at the guild you run w/ which is 2 day old log and still showing significant low dps
There can be 1000 people in your class bracket and you might be at 800 ie top 20.
But then for your ilvl there might be 100 but you might be like 50.
Usually it means your ilvl is high enough that you are doing high overall parses but people around your ilvl are performing a bit better than you in general.

im trying to link you the carapace run i had tonight but its not letting me
For a normal raider you’re doing well
For someone of your ilvl you’re doing less well
Generally means your overgeared compared to the others doing the content

probably coz of the trust level just remove “.” from warcraftlogs . comm
It’s all spec specific. You can be in the top 3 but as long as the others are different classes/specs there is the potential for them to parse higher simply because their spec has poorer representation, or they’re high for thier ilvl bracket.
Important thing to consider with current parses is that things such as corruption, essences, gem sockets don’t contribute to ilvl. So you can very much perform your class better than someone else and simply have a lower parse because their gear is statistically better.

If your ilvl parse is bad compared to your overall one, it means your ilvl is carrying your dps since other people playing your spec with your same ilvl did waaaay better than you.
Ok so looking at your dps and comparing people w/ similar spec and ilvl as you on the same fight. The top 10 dps are doing about over 60k dps. Where you’re doing around 30k. This will reflect on how well you’re doing again all other ele shaman at your gear level
