Newsflash: it's still garbage.

The results are up.

While the lengths of the parses differ (one is 15hrs, the other is 9), I don't think it's going to make a difference. If it's requested, I'll shorten the long one or lengthen the short one, but I don't expect anything to change.

I also believe these results are inaccurate for a Beastlord, simply because we are casting more instead of doing nothing but melee all the time. We won't see a 54 DPS increase because we'll be casting a lot more than anyone else.

I also plan on running these parses again as a high end rogue that I'm going to borrow, to see what kind of return they get.

I despize casting ferocity. It wastes my time and a spell slot, only time i bother casting is if we are doing a 'blow it up run' then ill slap it on my 2 targets who are a rog and a monk. The duration stinks,the cast time blows and the recast timer is rediculous. It is THE most useless spell memmed on normal raids for me. I really wish they would fit it. WHY oh why is there a silly recast timer???

atk when no fero ?
atk with fero on ?
Fero spell used ?

same for rogue


Inphared

I'll add all that in once I'm done parsing. I just finished a parse, buffed with basically raid buffs minus ranger stuff, and then I'm going to do another with Ferocity added onto that.

Any new parses? would really love to see a rogue and zerker in full burn mode compared with and without ferocity (yes, i know you need to automate some hotkeys for that).

It's vacation time at my store, and lucky for me, I get to cover most of it. My personal time is about nil and my raid attendance is suffering as well. I haven't forgotten about this but I just don't have the energy most times to get it all set up. Fortunately most of it should be wrapping up soon and it'll be my turn.  :-D

The summary here was that it sucked. If you check the dates, these were from last expansion.

Nothing's changed.

Hey I am not seeing any links to the parses? Were they removed? Do you still have them and could I get them? I know the spell sucks but I'd like to see some numbers if I could to share with my guildmates.

Brane

So I make no grave mistake if I continue to just ignore the spell?  8-)

Well it comes up from time to time.

Best bet is to get it off 2-3 times before starting an event and then Fpara yourself and tell anyone who wants it during teh fight to buzz off.

I just was looking for some hard numbers - I just was being lazy and didn't wanna parse >.<

I had a few numbers I parsed but I no longer have access to them and can't remember the details /shrug

Without Fero @ 3084 atk
Test Ninety in 11712s, 16692k @1425dps --- Latang 11050k @943dps --- Latang`s pet 5642k @483dps (got bored waiting, and not much changed)



With Fero @ 3552 atk
Test Ninety in 21105s, 30363k @1439dps --- Latang 20384k @966dps --- Latang`s pet 9979k @473dps


Did them the day testcopy worked again. Posted them in guild board, and had no requests for fero since. Haven't memmed it since March, and no-one wants it now.

Weapon was fabled mainhand, tinkerson h2h offhand.

Also I had changed aa a bit to raise attack cap for 2nd test, hence the discrepancy. Purpose of it was to see if I needed to max the attack raising aa. So far it's still at zero...

One worthwhile note is that crits bonus' effects don't seem to carry over, it's essentially the same % boost for normal as well as crit hits. Therefore melee class' crit rates are irrelevant when considering the effects of Ferocity.
