I’m looking at BiS to try to estimate what Embelishement i should be adding to my gear.
Here is the snapshot :

In this snapshot, multiple things seems weird to me.
First, there is no embelishement suggested. The embelishement are in “pair” only BiS can rank them properly (where Add to My bag only add 1 by 1 and not “pair” of items) so i was expecting to have at least two used.
I have this trinket in BiB :
And it doesn’t appear (unless mistakes from me) to be in the BiS listing
The last thing is subtle. So BiS decide to use most of the craft item 590 (Logical it’s the highest iLvl). All of Them are crit haste. I supposed the crit haste is “locked” behind the scene as the general best combo, then choose Mastery-Vers rings to balance the stats it’s ok to me. I would have expected something alond the line of keeping an higher ilvl ring :
But change one of the crafted item stats maybe (ok i bet this very very hard to do behind the scene) ? In other word, if i have better item right now in my bag, why couldn’t BiS reuse what’s available in my bag ? (Like upgraded renown items etc…) rather than downgrading ?
Or how could i really tune the settings to include what’s available right now to me.
In general we need to add some more behavior to Best in Slot for crafted items, and probably the Upgrade Finder too. Best in Slot won’t pick embellishments right now, and it does not try multiple stat variants of the crafted items either. We just lock it to one stat choice before the optimization even starts.
I need to give some thought to how to do this without adding a bazillion potential crafted variants to the pool of available items for the optimizer. The way the optimizer is written, it would still complete in a reasonable amount of time, but the accuracy goes down as the number of available items gets very large – we have to use more and more heuristics to prune the search space.
That trinket is ranked (the special effect has an estimate), but it doesn’t come from an item source that we add to our general lists. If you have it equipped though, it will be added to the pool of available items for Best in Slot. (It looks like I need to adjust the estimate though… more things than I previously thought can increase its value, e.g. someone reported that feral spirits can increase the proc value, or being a feral druid. I’m not sure if having a beast in your party would count too… but probably not.)
