Now supported on Raidbots, for best experience use the latest version of the SimulationCraft addon.

The Short Version

  • When using the SimulationCraft addon, you’ll automatically be simmed at your current Reorigination Array stack level.
  • Armory sims will use the last-seen value (the Raidbots cache) from the SimulationCraft addon (similar to how Netherlight Crucible was handled).
  • You can manually change or disable the stack size — open up Simulation Options, click Show All Options, and tweak Reorigination Array Stacks.
  • Discord bot will used the Raidbots cache if available, otherwise it will use 0. You can use -ra 2 to specify an arbitrary value.

The Longer Version

Reorigination Array is an additional effect that is active in Uldir when using specific Azerite Powers available from Uldir gear.

For more information, you can check out The Effects of Reorigination Array in Uldir Explained over on Wowhead.

For Raidbots and SimC, the main info that is needed is how many stacks of the effect should be used (which grows every week that you kill 3 bosses).

This can be controlled though a new option in SimC that has its own UI input on Raidbots (Simulation Options > Show All Options > Reorigination Array Stacks)

The SimulationCraft addon has been updated to determine this value for your character.

By default, Raidbots uses the “Smart” setting which does a few things:

  • For SimC input, it will use the value from the addon and save the value to the Raidbots cache.
  • For Armory import, it will use the most recent value in the Raidbots cache (or 0 if there is no cache)

If you manually change the setting to another value, it will use that regardless of what comes from the SimC input or Raidbots cache.

You’ll want to set it to 0 if you are simming anything outside of the Uldir raid (dungeons, world questing, etc).

Technical Notes

Much like Netherlight Crucible, this data is only available in-game which requires the addon/cache solution. The buff is using hidden quests which are not reported by the Armory API — the only way to get this information is by using an addon that can query hidden quests.

The SimC input for the power (bfa.reorigination_array_stacks) is commented out in the SimulationCraft export in order to avoid confusion — for folks that don’t update their local SimC programs it would error and we’ve traveled that road before. If you want to sim the effects using local SimC, make sure you have the latest SimC nightly and uncomment the line.

As of right now, SimC is only setting the stat boost on combat start. Devs are looking at properly handling the dynamic nature of the buff in a future SimC update.
