PROFILE
Evanmichaels
Evan Michaels developed and refined Rogue class mechanics for the simulationcraft/simc repository, focusing on feature delivery, bug resolution, and simulation fidelity. Over ten months, he implemented set bonuses, dynamic buff systems, and rotation logic using C++ and Python, addressing edge cases and aligning with evolving game data. His work included modular class design, combat logic, and data-driven spell system updates, resulting in more accurate and reliable DPS simulations. By integrating conditional logic, refactoring ability interactions, and improving buff management, Evan enabled maintainable code paths and reduced simulation discrepancies, supporting faster balance iterations and more trustworthy tuning decisions for developers.

Sep 1, 2025September 2025: Delivered a targeted bug fix for Rogue's Fatebound Coin (Heads) initial damage buff in simulationcraft/simc, improving accuracy of the initial damage bonus. Implemented by renaming an internal variable to reflect its purpose and adding conditional logic to prevent the bugged initial buff. This change enhances reliability of DPS simulations and enables better tuning decisions across user scenarios.

Aug 1, 2025In August 2025, delivered substantive Rogue-class updates and stability improvements for simulationcraft/simc, focused on aligning mechanics with patch notes, refining rotations, and expanding PvP-aware behavior. Key work spans Outlaw, Assassination, and Subtlety, with integration of Blizzard Action List cooldowns, improved energy handling, and rotation optimizations that reduce incorrect APL decisions. A new PvP rule-aware rotation expression type was added to enable conditional logic in rotations. A series of targeted bug fixes and refinements—including a MainWindow.cpp compilation fix—ensured cleaner builds and smoother developer workflow. Overall, these changes improve simulation accuracy, reduce risk in optimal-rotation selection, and keep the tool aligned with current game rules and patch notes.

Feb 1, 2025February 2025 (2025-02) monthly summary for simulationcraft/simc. Focused on advancing Rogue support for The War Within (11.1 PTR). Delivered initial Rogue set bonuses across Assassination, Outlaw, and Subtlety, including 4-piece interactions, refined Clone attacks and Shadow Techniques, and updated data generation and triggers for Assassination 4pc. Enabled Killing Spree interactions with the 4-piece set bonus refresh. Also fixed critical bugs: Shiv triggering Supercharger for non-Assassination specs; Thistle Tea cooldown initialization when not defined in APL. Performed Rogue APL cleanup removing deprecated precombat items and PTR-specific logic, and refactored proc handling for better maintainability. Result: improved simulation accuracy, reliability, and maintenance, accelerating PTR balance iterations and decision-making by the team.
