So according to Bloodmallet, my Sinister Gladiator’s Badge is 3rd best in slot and Kimbul-trinket is many places down.
I have a 405 Badge with a socket and a 400 kimbul without a socket. According to bloodmallet, this should be almost 20% dps ahead. However, simming it in raidbots, I still get higher DPS with the kimbul rather than the badge. Could someone please help me make sense of this?
But generally the difference will be down to the fact blood mallet uses the trinkets on a base 120 with no stats e.g.haste etc. So once you apply your stats in a raidbots sim it becomes alot more accurate
if you go on the gear and best in slot section of icy veins near the bottom there’s a list of the better trinkets for hunter based on item level and everything, so that can give you a general idea of what to go for, but once you get it you have to do a sim using raidbots, it’s the only way to know for sure if it’s an upgrade or not.
