your gear is unenchanted/missing crafted items. most people in your ilvl bracket would have a 405 mainhand at least

#

you're not using vanish at all, that's like >5% dps

#

Use vanish > ambush whenever you have no audacity and 3 or less fan the hammer stacks

#

You need these talents

#

After maintenance you will have an extra point in the class tree which will let you have an easier time taking subterfuge

#

I felt like I almost always had the ability to use Ambush either from SD or Audacity, so I didn't think Vanish would yield so much dps

lilac jewel
#

The average cooldown is like 35 seconds

#

It gives you a haste buff for 20 seconds

#

and it does contribute to a lot more ambush casts, especially with subterfuge

#

you hit sinister strike 89 times, which were all moments that could have been a vanish ambush

#

this build loves ambush more than anything

#

sinister strike is the last resort builder when you have no ambush proc, no fan the hammer, no vanish, no dance

flat zodiac

Okay, I will definitely look into those changes when maintenance is done. I kinda realized too late that I wasted my sparks on making the engi gear which caused me to miss out on making a weapon, as I haven't had a single one drop so far in raid or M+. I appreciate the review and will definitely work on these changes to see if it helps out

#

Do you see anything else that might be causing such a stark difference in DPS between my sims and that of peers with similar ilvl?

lilac jewel
#

often you are hitting sinister strike while fan the hammer is already active

#

this build consumes FTH immediately as long as you are below 6cp and ambush proc is not also active

#

FTH is too important to keep proccing ambush

#

but in dance or subterfuge, you would only consume FTH at 6 stacks, cause you can cast ambush anyway

#

i keep seeing these stray singular pistol shots when you appear to be in range

#

pistol shot is only used when fan the hammer is active

#

a single pistol shot is basically a wasted global

flat zodiac
#

I think those may have been filler on trying to kill adds while out of range due to lightning breath

#

how often are you deliberately switching targets?

flat zodiac
#

During an add phase, often

lilac jewel
#

these 6 globals were mostly used on different targets

#

unless your current target is dying asap there is little reason to switch

#

outlaw likes to mark a target with between the eyes and stay on it for 20% more crit

#

You only used your trinket once

flat zodiac
#

Okay, so less target switching would help too. I think during the initial platform split phase I was near constant switching targets

lilac jewel
#

your boon trinket can prevent a pushback on phase 1 and then it will be ready in the add phase

flat zodiac
#

So, only use PS when I see the proc, I should hardly ever cast Sinister Strike by adding in Vanish->Ambush into the rotation
