I feel that if I were to talk about kill time for comparing logs, I'd need to discuss the raid comp, when you push phases (such as pushing to chimney faster in O5S), and a few other little things. by decorator pins. I've got ACT for parsing, but none of the colors are grey. If you build up a pin that is about Damage To Enemies, then the abilities list will automatically include only abilities + sign on the row for Kihrawr will create a new pin that represents the query Damage Done By Kihrawr to Garrosh Hellscream.

The list below shows what the default view shown is for all the places on the site that show scores: When you find exploited logs, you can either post about them on our Discord or you can send an email to support@fflogs.com. Within a specific field, e.g., Sources, multiple entries are connected by a logical OR. Let's start by talking briefly about the structure of pages in Warcraft Logs (WCL) WCL provides three views of data: the Analytical View, the Events View and the Combat Replay view. Or there is a distinct possibility they are undergeared compared to the rest of the group [especially if said group has a piece or two of savage gear already.]. If only one type is selected, then additional options will be shown that let you refine your query even further for that event type. There are four types of pins that you can create. had not been considered, etc. Once the actor is picked, it gets committed to the appropriate list (in this case sources). The FFlogs rank is calculated on base the highest ranking in that moment. When a heal lands, it will either be a normal heal or a critical heal.

But I know a lot of people don't know how to get that same information which really only takes a few button presses, so I made a guide!! Wanted to walk through the various DPS metrics that have come up on FFLogs and explain the pros and cons of each (on the road to trying to come up with something better). More raid experience doesnt always mean better parses. Whenever players kill a boss in a public log, they are ranked according to various metrics, such as damage per second data. Aka.

Rankings and parses can also be evaluated either around the time they occurred (historically) or they can be judged against today's values. Otherwise IMPORTANT: Note that Warcraft Logs does not consider a full absorb to be a miss. Underneath the query bar is a graph that shows the results of the query specified in the query bar: Below the graph in Analytical View is a table that also matches the results of the query bar. We could have used a badge pin instead to Hopefully this help! There is the best you can get. type - String - The type of the mob. The rank will simply be flagged.

A historical score is then computed through linear interpolation between the two closest cached percentile values. Most people don't consider good anything below 75%. Implying grey isn't the natural state and everything else is a result of padding. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. Percentile Colors Whenever you see a ranking or parse percentile, it is colored according to the percentile range it falls into. To help communicate this concept, a character page shows which bosses are not locked in yet, so that you can know that the percentile being shown is not final yet and is subject to change. The total multiplier for the event is 1.21. rDPS is great for showing how much damage you really contributed to the raid, For utility jobs like Dancer and Ninja, the metric depends on people making good use of your buffs, so some damage you contribute to the raid is out of your control.

Character blacklisting is a "last resort" measure reserved for when rank removal code fixes are impossible and for when there is a clear and established pattern of log abuse. Thank you!
