# Voidscar Arena +15 — TIMED

30:01 · 0% over the 30:00 par · 4 deaths · Fortified, Tyrannical, affix 147

> **AI-WRITTEN ANALYSIS** — The numbers come from the combat log. The verdict and notes were written by an AI reading them, and can be wrong in ways the numbers cannot. Written by Claude (Opus 5), from the combat log, the archive and the Warcraft Recorder sidecar.

**Tip:** Press a defensive before Poison Pool lands

## Timed by +1. Arbiter had it 0.57 s over par and called it depleted until the recording settled it.

This key came down to under a second. Arbiter reconstructs the in-game clock at 30:00.6 against a 30:00 par, which reads as a depletion. The recording written alongside it says +1, taken from the game's own completion event, so the key was timed and the archive now says so.

Four people died, all of them on bosses. Hyporock died at 16:42 to Atroxus's Poison Pool after taking damage for 3.3 seconds with nothing pressed. The kicks were busy but crowded: 18 presses, 8 of them on a cast already stopped or on nothing casting.

**What to change**

1. Press something before the Poison Pool damage at about 16:39. Nothing was pressed in the 3.3 s before dying.
2. Stop double-kicking. 8 of 18 Rebuke presses hit a cast already stopped or nothing at all, and 5 of those left the kick down when a cast got through.
3. Nothing to change on damage. 252,872 dps is the 73rd percentile for a logged +15 of this dungeon.

## How to improve

**Doryhunky — Veng DH**

A- and the best card in the key. 30 stops against 26 expected, no deaths, 97% engaged. The only real line is Venomous Spit, which you took 4 times against a party median of 1, worth 532,415. Nothing else to change.

**Resto Druid — Resto Druid**

You covered 82% of the damage that needed an outside heal and removed 25 debuffs, which is a good key. You died at 9:11 to Umbral Rupture after 6.6 seconds of damage with no defensive pressed. Barkskin was up 17 seconds earlier and would have covered it.

**Hyporock — Ret Paladin**

Damage was the 73rd percentile for a logged +15 here, so output is not the problem. The kicks are: 18 presses for 10 stops, 8 of them on a cast already stopped or on nothing, and 5 of those left it down when a cast got through. You died at 16:42 to Poison Pool with nothing pressed.

**Arcane Mage — Arcane Mage**

227,311 dps is the 30th percentile for a +15 here, the weakest part of your card. Your kicks were efficient at 8 stops from 13 presses. You died at 28:07 to Cosmic Crash on Charonus after 12.2 seconds of damage, which is long enough to have pressed something.

**Ele Shaman — Ele Shaman**

201,704 dps is the 8th percentile for a logged +15 of this dungeon and 84% of what the other dealers did. That is the thing to work on. You did press Earth Elemental before dying at 28:59, which is more than most of these deaths can say.

### As a group

Timed by under a second, so every one of the 4 deaths mattered. Three of them came with no defensive pressed at all. The group stopped 91% of what it could reach but leaked 20 of 50 Lava Bolts, and the last two deaths at 28:07 and 28:59 came from Unstable Singularity and Cosmic Crash stacking on people who were already low. On a key this tight, one defensive press is 15 seconds of timer.

### The comp

Good comp for this dungeon. Bloodlust twice, a battle res from Resto Druid, and four kicks against a dungeon that mostly wants them. Damage was the thin part: two of the three dealers were at or below the 30th percentile, which is why a clean key came down to half a second.

## Deaths

4 deaths in 4 separate incidents.

## Notes

### Where the outcome came from

The combat log does not record whether a key beat par. Arbiter rebuilds the timer from combat time, routing, the pull timer and a death penalty, and got 1800.6 s against a 1800.0 s par. Warcraft Recorder stores the client's own completion payload beside each video, and it reads result true, upgrade 1. The archive now carries a confirmed entry keyed to this run's clear time, so a re-grade keeps the corrected outcome.

### The death count does not agree with the game

The game's timer implies 3 charged deaths. The parser found 4. One of those two is wrong, and on a key decided by half a second a single 15 s death penalty is larger than the whole margin. This is worth resolving before trusting any reconstructed clock on a marginal run.

## 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.
