Rankings Methodology

What We Measure

Every number on a ranking page is the share of sampled characters of one specialization in one kind of content, counted from the leaderboard rows of the most recent computation.

Where The Numbers Come From

The rows come from Blizzard's Mythic Keystone leaderboards through the Battle.net API, read for a rotating sample of each region's connected realms. No combat log and no third party parse is read.

What This Does Not Measure

Representation is how often a specialization is played, which is not the same as how strong it is. Blizzard's player versus player leaderboards name no specialization, so no bracket is ranked here yet, and encounter percentiles and stat priorities need parse data, which a later milestone adds.
