NEW Raider.IO Stats Feature: Explore the Meta Like Never Before!

Greetings Patrons! We’ve got a quick announcement for you today about a BRAND NEW FEATURE we’ve recently launched: Raider.IO Stats!

This feature is currently in Beta Testing, and is available for Raider.IO Patrons only. We want YOU to be the first to explore, experience, and enjoy this brand new feature, and provide us with your feedback and input. This is a feature we’ve been working on and have been wanting to bring to the World of Warcraft playerbase for a long time, and one we’re very excited about. Data is the bread and butter of a lot of what Raider.IO does, and now you can access it, customize it, and learn from it directly for yourselves.

FEEDBACK

Before we explain a bit about the Raider.IO Stats feature itself, we want to highlight how important your feedback is during the Beta Testing stage. We want this to be a user-friendly experience, so we ask that if you come across any bugs or issues, or areas you think could use improvement, to let us know. Similarly to past features that have been available only to Patrons during Beta Testing, we’ve created a special stats-feature-feedback channel in our Discord. This will be a direct line to the development team, and we are eager to hear what you think of the new feature.

RAIDER.IO STATS

Head on over to https://raider.io/stats, where all the magic happens! There are four types of data sets you can access from here: Mythic+ Runs, Mythic+ Dungeon Times, Mythic+ Spec Popularity, and Mythic+ Group Compositions. Many of these graphs might look familiar if you’ve been reading our newest content series: Data Dives.

There are a ton of different ways to customize the data you can generate, and you can even look at past seasons, so please take a look and play around with it! Let us know if it’s easy to use and figure out. We want this to be as user-friendly as possible.

Mythic+ Runs

This dataset shows how many dungeons are being run. You can filter it to show specific timeframes, regions, keystone levels, and more. The data will be shown in both graph format, as well as a table. You can see how many dungeons are being attempted, as well as how many were then timed and/or depleted. You can also drill down to a specific week and it will separate the data by specific dungeons – if you wanted to see how few people are running Grim Batol each week, now you know!

Mythic+ Dungeon Times

This is a box-plot graph that shows the success rates of each dungeon, as well as how often each are, on average, being 1, 2, or 3 starred. Here you can see the fastest runs, slowest runs, median, and more. This dataset can be very useful if you are targeting a specific dungeon level, such as a +10 for Mythic-track rewards, for example. Filter the graph to show only +10s and you’ll get some good insight into which dungeons are your best chance for a successful run, and which will more likely lead to a deplete.

Mythic+ Spec Popularity

Want to see just how many people are using Feral Druids, Outlaw Rogues, or Shadow Priests? Want to see at which keystone level Blood Death Knight falls off in popularity? Maybe you’re curious to see just how dominant Paladins and Shamans are in the current meta (hint: very). This dataset allows you to answer all of those questions, and more.

 
Mythic+ Group Compositions

This graph set was the foundation of our Data Dive series, as we were curious to see not just which specs were popular, but what specs were being played with together the most. So much of success in Mythic+ comes down to group synergy and compositions. Sure, Protection Paladins are strong, but can they survive the highest keys without an Augmentation Evoker? Can a Discipline Priest really keep a Blood Death Knight alive, or do you need a Restoration Shaman? These are the types of questions regarding Group Composition we wanted answered, and so was borne the Group Comps datasets! 

Now you can see for yourself across a bunch of custom options just which group comps are being used the most, and the least.

CHARACTER STATS... AND MORE TO COME!

Want to see all of these same data sets, but pertaining to a specific character only? Head on over to any character profile page, click the Stats button, and voila! This will default to the current reset, so if that character hasn’t run anything yet, you’ll want to change that input.

 
We plan to expand this feature to show datasets and graphs specific to Guilds, Mythic+ Teams and more! The new Raider.IO Stats Feature is foundational and we plan to continue buliding upon it. Look for things like more data, including raid statistics, in the future.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Some datasets, in particular those for past seasons, may not have been pre-loaded. It may take some time for a graph to load in this case, so please keep that in mind. 

When this feature moves out of Beta Testing and becomes available to all users, there may be some custom options that will remain available to Patrons only. 

Another reminder that this feature is in Beta Testing, so there may be bugs or issues – in which case please head on over to our special feedback channel in Discord to flag those! 

We’re excited to hear your feedback, and we’re thrilled to finally be able to bring this feature to fruition. We would also like to thank you all once again for your continued and generous support of Raider.IO. Without you, our Patrons, we wouldn’t be able to continue to create new features like this. You are what make this all possible!

-Aspyr, Ulsoga, & the Raider.IO Team
