We will update the site for the 12.0.7 patch sometime during tomorrow’s maintenance.
Sporefall
The new raid’s loot (including trinket estimates) will be added to all features. Note that this new gear only drops at maximum level with the “sporefused” title – the same item level as an item upgraded with an ascendant voidcore (9 item levels higher than a 6/6 upgrade on that track).
Omnium Folio
This is a new system that will give more power for the remainder of the Midnight expansion. It is like a little additional talent tree, and will take a few weeks to fully unlock.
We are working on fully implementing some kind of user interface and addon import/export for this. It won’t be ready tomorrow because we need more time to test it on live data. Our goal is to have it fully functional before the following raid reset (June 22).
Note that while some nice additional power, we do not anticipate the Omnium Folio will have a big impact on your gearing choices. It seems to be mainly a choice of damage/heal procs that don’t typically interact with gear very much. A couple weeks from now a stat proc choice will be available, and we’ll work on recommending to you which to choose.
Other Stuff
Most of the other new activities in this patch seem like new ways to get existing gear. If we missed anything that you would like to see in the Upgrade Finder, etc., please let us know!
An update on the Omnium Folio:
We will be adding support for reading and optimizing the Omnium Folio as it is unlocked further. Today’s update included an addon update to v175 that can export your currently chosen runes to the website. Under the hood we are estimating a value for your chosen runes, but we aren’t doing any optimization yet.
A few notes on how the Omnium Folio scales and interacts with gear: it doesn’t. It does not scale with any stat, it simply does a flat amount of damage. That is why we aren’t worrying about rushing to optimize it… the damage/heal procs have zero impact on how you play or gear.
The stat proc row (week 4) is a choice you’ll want to make: which stat goes best with your gear? Most of the time you can safely pick your highest stat, but we’ll have something in place to suggest which stat to pick by then. We estimate these will be roughly a 2% output increase, but we’ll do an in-depth simulation of it.
The 1st, 3rd, and 5th rows all roll together to make one damage/heal proc effect. The 3rd row (available tomorrow) roughly doubles the value of the core rune by adding a DoT, except in single target (we’ll test the refresh and targeting behavior thoroughly tomorrow). The 5th row will increase the total proc output by roughly another 50% – you can pick one of three ways to get… the same damage increase. So when fully unlocked you can expect the damage/heal procs to be doing roughly 3x what they were in your last few raids.
