Methodology
Ranking
A dungeon ranks by the number of slots where its drop is the best-in-slot item (rings and trinkets count two), then by drops in the top five of any slot, then by summed score.
Item scoring
Stat items are scored by the spec's simmed stat weights at the Myth 6/6 ceiling; trinkets carry their simmed DPS gain from the weekly trinket leaderboard. See the Subtlety best-in-slot board.
Not included
What you already own, on-use and proc effects outside the trinket slot, set bonuses, and the item level difference between the vault and end-of-dungeon loot.

Frequently asked questions
Which dungeon should Subtlety Rogue farm in Patch 12.1.0.69933?
Kings' Rest: 2 best-in-slot drops and 7 items in a top five for Subtlety Rogue on single target, the most of the eight Season 2 dungeons.
How do all eight dungeons rank for Subtlety?
Kings' Rest (2), Murder Row (1), Voidscar Arena (1), The Blinding Vale (0), Ruby Life Pools (0), Temple of Sethraliss (0), Den of Nalorakk (0), Altar of Fangs (0). The number is best-in-slot drops for the spec.
Which dungeons have nothing for Subtlety?
Every Season 2 dungeon drops at least one top-five item for the spec.
How are the upgrades counted?
Every current-season item is ranked within its slot, stat items by the spec's simmed stat weights and trinkets by the simmed trinket leaderboard. A dungeon counts one for each slot where it holds the best item and one for each drop in a top five.
Should I raid instead?
The comparison block shows how many best-in-slot pieces the raid and crafted gear hold. Tier pieces always come from the raid, so it usually leads; the dungeon ranking is for the slots it does not cover.
How often is this updated?
Every Sunday after the weekly SimulationCraft update, when the stat weights and trinket boards are re-simmed.
