Sounds like you have something you need to do to start getting over it.

Remember what I said. I’m not even cutting Ogdenir a break. This is for everyone. He just said something blatantly wrong, either one thing or all the things. I’m not saying what it is, and I’m not going to. And look how easy it was on my end. But I have faith he’ll figure it out, as all of us.

Welcome to the real big leagues now.

Ogdenir got it from the guides so if you think you know better prove it wrong otherwise you are just demonstrating more narcissistic behaviour

No enlighten us. I was only helping with what I could find. You have more knowledge about MM then you should explain what its stat priorities are.

I know he did. (Wow, another epic short answer!)

Are we having fun now, Woodsy? This is what you wanted.

I won’t be doing that, but I will say the guides are…for a star-aligned flash they might have been right but they are now outdated.

I’m glad you didn’t get it that I was calling you wrong, unless…

I don’t play MM enough to know what the stat priorities are, and wanted to help the OP with any information that I was able to find. I used IV as it is written by someone who is know in the hunter community.

However, if you are saying this information is not factual then you must know what is the correct answer, and should share this with OP this way they are not mislead by the information that I provided.

Okay, okay. I’ll bite. You were nice. Once more, for old times’ sake. 10.2 didn’t hit just yet, so we can have an “after party”.

  1. Mastery
  2. Versatility
  3. Crit
  4. Haste

I have recently used Raidbots and found a 10% DPS increase with a Msty over 20% than with a Haste over 20%, Crit and Vers equal at over 20%, talenting into TShot + Windrunner’s Guidance. I’m at lunch away from my PC so I can’t show the in-game math.

Also, fewer harder hitting crits > more softer hitting crits. Cdrez, homie: Crit Damage Resolution.

15

Mastery makes since, yet wouldn’t crit take priority over Versatility? More damage is fine but your shots would be more impactful with higher crit?

16

There’s a difference between crit chance and crit damage. Crit chance does not normally increase the damage you do on a critical: crits are always 200% damage. Some class/specs like Destro and I think FrMage get an actual bonus to damage in certain abilities from crit chance.

Not to mention that with nothing in the talent tree that you take to get more msty and vers, it’s especially important to get it from gear and other buffs.

And this is easy math here.

I should throw in SV for a quick moment: Msty is still the dump stat and Blizz knows it’s still bad. For SV, the most important ability is not a Focus-spender, so Crit/Haste is actually GOOD because Haste DOES scale down the recharge on WFB and Crit is the only way to increase its damage apart from Vers.

Omg not this again with the level 60 sims :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Thought crit was the maximum amount of damage you could get from your attacks? Damage fluctuates, but a critical hit was always the full amount of damage.

19

Crits scale off from the base. The higher the base, the higher the crit goes. Agi, Msty, Vers, weapon DPS. It doesn’t count Haste because Haste doesn’t make the attacks stronger but make them more often.

And SV and BM seems to be the only two specs that actually benefit from Haste. White and yellow damage from pet and faster WFB recharges matter. But MM is unique that it does not typically run a pet this day and age. MM mastery alone does not make your pet stronger, but only all your ranged attacks.

Keep in mind Jackalswind is trying to sim and theorycraft for a level 60 character. He doesn’t factor in tier sets, 5 class talents, 5 spec talents, and any other end game Dragonflight features.

You might as well sim for and try to optimize a level 27 character—it’s just arbitrary nonsense
