SimulationCraft 4.3.3 R 2 / 5.3.0 R 2

SimulationCraft is a free and open-source application that allows you to explore combat mechanics in the popular MMO RPG, World of Warcraft.

In other words, SimulationCraft is a multi-player event driven simulator written in C++ that lets you model player character DPS in various raiding scenarios.

The accuracy of traditional calculators has been eroded by the increasing class synergy and the prevalence of proc-based combat modifiers. These tools rely upon closed-form approximations to model very complex mechanics.

SimulationCraft aims to close the accuracy gap while maintaining a performance level high enough to calculate relative stat weights to aid gear selection.

SimulationCraft allows for raid/party creation of arbitrary size, and generates detailed charts and reports for both individual and raid performance.

In addition, SimulationCraft includes a simple GUI that allows you to download and analyze characters from the Armory.

SimulationCraft can also be launched via the command-line and in this case the player profiles are specified via parameter files.
