Windfury Weapon bugged

[Firstaidkit]

Windfury Weapon
- Scales with weapon DPS, attack power, melee haste, melee crit, melee tohit.
- Mitigated by armor and block, avoided by dodge, parry, and miss.
- Has a 5% special attack type melee miss chance.
- Benefits from weapon mastery for 10% more damage.
- The best enchant for enhancement shamans on both hands.
- The two extra attacks can proc flurry, unleashed rage, and shamanistic rage. They do not consume flurry charges, and don't glance.
- The two offhand attacks are affected by the standard offhand 50% damage reduction. The WF proc's attack power bonus is not.
- WF totem only procs on autoattacks and "on next melee" attacks like heroic strike. The WF attack itself is white damage and generates rage. WF totem scales with melee gear, so it's a fantastic buff for rogues, paladins, and warriors.

The Windfury Cooldown
After WF procs it cannot proc again on either hand for 3 seconds. No 1H weapon in the entire game can proc WF twice in a row. This means that WF will proc less than the 20% promised on its tooltip.
- When only one weapon has WF, each hit outside of the cooldown has a 20% chance to proc. This leads to a 11-18% overall proc rate, depending on gear, weapon speed, spec, and luck. Slower is better.
- When both weapons have WF, each hit outside of the cooldown has a 36% chance to proc. This leads to a 11-14% procrate with weapons faster than 2.0s unhasted and a 14-18% procrate with weapons slower than 2.0s unhasted. Slower is better. Handy reference chart:

3.0s normal, 4.0s with flurry = no swings wasted (no 1H weapons >20dps exist at this speed)
1.5s normal, 2.0s with flurry = one swing wasted
<1.5s normal, <2.0s with flurry = two swings wasted (bad!)

Windfury Weapon-Enhancement
How it should work:
Each melee hit has a 20% chance of dealing additional damage equal to two extra attacks with 475 attack power.
How it currently works:
Windfury has no internal cooldown, can therefore proc off itself and has no limit on how much it can proc off, in theory it could proc infinitely if the RNG is on your side. Or maybe it just gives a guaranteed double proc every time?

Seems like some1 lost to enh shaman.

No, I just copy / paste this from WoWhead and I made this thread to annoy Imperium because I love him so much <3.

I just report bugs because I want this server to become bugfree some day (I know this is a weird thought without devs but still we can fix as much as possible right and first step is to report the bug instead of just staying quiet and enjoying the OP class).

Also I think it's not normal if a S3 Enhancement shaman can 1 shot a S2 Hunter since hunters wear mail armor I think there has to be something wrong with resilience, armor, Windfury or melee dmg in overall.

no shit sherlock?

If you got nothing to say than just don't post. I made this post for the (future) developer if he's ever going to look into it than at least I reported it here and I can use this topic as a reference.

congratulations, you reported a well-known bug that has been on SF since.... forever.

congratulations, you have successfully annoyed me.

The procsystem has always been a problem on smolderforge and a lot of other servers.
When I was actively developing here I started working on a new procsystem which was divided into seperate sections of procs, Melee, Damage etc all handled in a different system.

I am in internship now and have a lot of homework and got my normal job also.
Almost got a burnout a month ago so the time I have to work on smolderforge is just not optimal.
However, I will be having time from January / February to maybe slowly pick things up again.

Will talk to henhouse about this, he does not know yet :)

[Imperium]

I'm sorry.

But who are you, exactly?

Greetings,

I used to develop here back in 2011 but due to my study I had no time to develop here.
This year I will complete highschool, I do a study of 3 years in 2 years now.

Here is the topic I made when I became a developer here: http://www.smolderforge.com/forums/view ... f=3&t=4571

Sincerely,
Darkgroom
Smolderforge (Retired, but not for long) developer.

Does this apply to Windfury totem? (it feels like it does in-game)
If it does fixing totem should take priority since Warriors > Shamans with windfury
