Methodology

Baseline profile

SimulationCraft default Balance Druid profile at current season ilvl, no trinket equipped. Best-effort talent build, consumables, and gem/enchant set tracking SimC head.

Iteration count

50,000 iterations per trinket. Standard deviation on the DPS mean is well under 0.5% at this count, which keeps the ranking deltas reliable.

Cleave

Three-target uniform cleave, 5 minutes, fixed pull timing. Approximates a typical raid encounter with consistent adds.

Patchwerk

Single boss, 5 minutes, no movement, no adds. The pure DPS ceiling for raw rotation throughput.

Not included

Tier set bonuses, hero talent variance beyond the SimC default, encounter scripting (boss adds, mechanics, debuffs), and gear interactions outside the trinket slot. For your specific build, run a full sim.
