Before You Begin

  • I confirm that I have downloaded the latest version of the addon.
  • I am not playing on a private server.
  • I checked for an existing, open ticket for this issue and was not able to find one.
  • I edited the title of this issue (above) so that it describes the issue I am reporting.
  • I am reporting an issue with the default priority included with the specialization (imported or edited priorities are not supported).

Spec

Mage - Frost

Describe the Issue

The cone of cold logic seems to rely on sim specific timings lining up. There's some nuance, but there are times when orb is ready or has 1-2s cd and the addon recommends comet>coc when it could get another free cast of orb out.

Adding a condition to the comet/coc combo where if the expected cd of orb is less than 2-3 gcds it should wait for it and cast orb>comet>coc would be beneficial. Orb is a large part of aoe damage for its own damage and the buff it gives blizzard.

How to Reproduce

Play frost with aoe talents
Press orb on pull and use blizzard to reduce orb cd and keep going until you see a case where orb has ~15s cd which is only a couple of gcds with blizzard cdr and you will see comet>coc>orb when you could cast x>orb>comet>coc>orb (weaving blizzards in, addon handles this as it is now)

The sim APL is not written to care about frozen orb cooldown for Cone of Cold. I will verify with the Frost writer what the intention is for cone of cold re: Frozen orb

I spoke with the main APL writer and it doesn't seem to matter if it's not used to reset frozen orb.
