I'm massively underperforming. Guidance would be helpful - I'm struggling hard and afraid I'm going to fail my trial

#

biggest red flag I see is you have 37 ambush casts total and over 60 audacity procs

#

you should have more ambush procs then you have audacity procs. the fact that this is reversed is a huge issue

#

you have almost 90 SS casts, the point of HO is trying to avoid casting SS as much as possible its an extremely weak builder

#

literal last resort, you have no procs (opp or audacity) and no ways to get more procs (shadow dance, vanish)

dense coyote
#

That... makes a lot of sense. I'm mostly SSing, which is a massive hit to my damage.

waxen heath
#

the way HO plays is using everything possible to minimize SS procs

#

ur goal is to be looping ambush > finisher > PS > finisher > ambush on end

#

its tough for me to see ur dance/vanish usage because buff page is so small on mobile

#

but dances look like they are almost on cd? which is not what you do with HO

#

dance is a tool to be used when you run completely out of procs

#

vanish is the same but you can vanish slightly more frequently (you can vanish with 3 FtH stacks, no audacity)

#

so looking at my normal grimtotem kill, which was 20s shorter

#

i had 15 SS casts total

#

over the entire fight

dense coyote
#

jeez, okay, shit that's a massive different

waxen heath
#

almost my lowest damage source

#

looks like ur BF uptime on adds was fine

dense coyote
#

Honestly, I think I may just swap out of Outlaw. I was performing better on Assassination. I swapped because Outlaw is better for keys, but I clearly don't understand Outlaw at this point

#

ur also running ST HO build on a cleave fight

#

recommended is the cleave talents so that would inc ur dps

dense coyote
#

What you're saying makes total sense, but I have a fundamental misunderstanding of the spec. I'm still playing it like it's SL

waxen heath
#

if you want to play it like its SL, you can try KiR

#

the builds are as strong or stronger then HO builds

#

and play extremely similar to shadowlands outlaw

#

HO is the new flavor with a newer rotation

dense coyote
#

Hmm, so is that not played around procs and ambush and more about just building with SS?

waxen heath
#

its basically just shadowlands outlaw, but a bit faster and with the new shiny KiR

#

everything else about how it plays (except for the addition of FtH of course which isnt hard to pick up) is nearly the same

#

id give it a try if you dont want to practice more with HO to pick up a whole new flow

dense coyote
#

If I wanted to take KiR and make it slightly more cleave friendly, what would I change talent wise?

waxen heath
#

the m+ builds are just "cleave" builds

#

you drop the weakest ST talents to pick up BF target cap and Bf damage under target cap

#

thats basically the only diff between ST and "aoe" builds for outlaw

#

the faq has them

dense coyote
#

hmm,interesting

#

So you'd run more of a m+ build on like half of the fights, then?

#

Since a lot of fights are cleave?

waxen heath
#

i ran the m+ build on every fight except terros

#

So... Do I need to use ambush more often and not a shot?

waxen heath
#

I have no idea what you need to do

arctic cradle
#

ambush is used from the exit from the inviz + after the dance + during the proke. And if both the shot and ambush succeed, should I use ambush? Is he a priority ?

waxen heath
#

you should never be in a situation where u are capped on PS procs and have an ambush proc
