Midnight Sensei v1.5.9 — Release Notes

Starting with this release, Archon.gg is now the primary source for rotation priorities and talent build verification across all specs. Archon data is derived from top-ranked live parse data and reflects the actual spell IDs that fire in combat — not just spellbook IDs. Secondary sources (Wowhead, Warcraft Logs, SimulationCraft) remain in use for spell node data and methodology. Archon.gg has been added to the in-game Credits panel (/ms credits).

This release applies that pivot directly, correcting multiple wrong spell IDs across Rogue specs (all three primary builders were incorrect) and filling rotation gaps across all three Death Knight specs.


Rogue: Spell ID corrections across all three specs

All three Rogue specs shared the same incorrect ID (1752) for their primary builder. Session log data confirmed the correct combat cast IDs:

Spec Spell Was Now
Assassination Mutilate 1752 1329 (+ altIds 5374, 27576 for MH/OH hits)
Assassination Envenom 196819 32645 (+ altId 276245)
Assassination Rupture 1943 199672 (Assassination spec-variant)
Outlaw Sinister Strike 1752 193315
Outlaw Dispatch 196819 2098
Subtlety Backstab 1752 53

Note: 196819 is the correct ID for Eviscerate (Subtlety only) — it was incorrectly applied to Envenom and Dispatch in prior releases.
