## Your best key on record as Retribution: 128% of the other damage dealers, no deaths, nothing avoidable taken.

A-, 87.3, and it is earned across the board rather than carried by one number. **257,808 damage a second - 128% of what the other damage dealers managed**, no deaths, 0% avoidable damage, and 97% activity, which is the highest share of time-on-buttons you have posted in this spec.

## Notes

### Why this one scored so much higher

Three axes hit or near their ceiling at once. Survival 100 (no deaths), mechanics 100 (nothing landed on you that others avoided), and damage 89.3 - your best of the night by a wide margin.

Your Judgment / Hammer of Wrath key ran at **7.6 presses a minute here, the highest of any key you have played in this spec.** The three-icon prompt and your best damage key being the same run is not proof on its own, but it is the direction you would want.

### The only soft spot

Interrupts scored 81 - your lowest of the four - but read the note before worrying: **the group stopped 100% of what it could reach.** You made 16 stops against 14 expected. Nothing got away. The axis is comparing you to your own party on a key where there was very little left to take.

### The rotation change

This was the first night with the button prompt showing three icons instead of one. The thing it was meant to fix moved: your Judgment / Hammer of Wrath key went from 6.1 presses a minute across the nine keys before it to 7.2 across these four. Before, only 2 of 9 keys reached 6.9 or better. Here it was all four. Nothing else got worse to pay for it - your total presses per minute, your empty globals and your wasted Holy Power all landed where they normally do.

## Method

Each axis is scored 0 to 100 against what this run allowed, not against a fixed target. A player is only scored on things their spec can do. An axis that does not apply is left out and the other weights are scaled up. 100 means nothing was missed; a solid, even key usually lands near 75. Survival and mechanics carry no weight of their own: they start at 100 and take points off when something went wrong.
