Why Remove Custom Stat Weights?

@yellowfive

Our gearing strategies do not treat all stats as equal by default.

Thanks this makes me feel better.

@yellowfive

The “stat suggestion” next to a gear solution will give you a rough idea of the type of stat combo it tends to go for.

Where is this? I am not finding.

@yellowfive

We do not recommend using stat weights generated by simc. Most people don’t use that method anymore – not even the people who use and write simc. They just don’t seem to work that well, and have been out of favor in the theorycraft community for several years.

I have spoken to several high end raiders and they all utilize SimC and Raidbots. I was a minority in my group who utilizes AMR but like what was stated I utilized AMR for a gear finding tool based off the weights I generated from Sims. What makes AMR better for simming vs that of Raidbots/SimC and why would US top 100 players be “bad” for using this method still?

@yellowfive

We didn’t take away a feature (the ability to customize how gear is ranked) – we just changed it! The game changed, so we changed along with it.

It is a change but it limits my methodology of finding upgrades how I have in the past. I just don’t see “proof” that I should trust AMR sims vs others. If I am wrong that is fine, just I need proof to get I guess a “warm and fuzzy”.

Thank you guys for the support BTW!
