DPS gain bar: trinket's contribution over an empty trinket slot at Myth track (334). Differences within ~0.4% are statistical noise — treat close trinkets as tied (what target error means).
Methodology
- Profile: the SimC project's canonical MID2 Shadow Priest profile (MID2_Priest_Shadow.simc), with both trinket slots emptied as baseline.
- Simulation: each trinket equipped alone in slot 1 at item levels 295, 308, 321, 334 — fight style Patchwerk, 300s fight, target error 0.4%.
- Engine: SimulationCraft, current Midnight Season 2 build; the identical engine runs in this site's in-browser simulator.
- Raw data: data.json for this page.
