9 shadow dances in a 6 minute fight sounds criminally low

balmy plover
#

I never know when to use my eviscerate

#

I think I suck with combopoint management

steady trail
#

Hang on I'm on mobile still let me get back to a computer and I'll give a real hard look

#

ok

#

you have one button for all your cds, huh?

balmy plover
#

😦

steady trail
#

so this dance is great

#

this dance also very good

#

the problem is that cause u have 1 button for all your cds

#

your symbols is off cd nearing the end of that dance (36s~ ish)

#

and ur not using it until 20s later here

#

if i go down this 6 minute fight

#

you're losing casts like that constantly

balmy plover
#

hm okay makes sense since im new to the spec I was lazy with keybinds

#

question: Do I use symbols out of dance ?

steady trail
#

yes no (i misread ur question sorry)

#

with one dance build you dont hold any of your cds for anytihng

#

everything should be sent on cd

balmy plover
#

every CD I have to use on CD, even like shadow blades?

steady trail
#

yeahp

balmy plover
#

okay, thistle tea, only in dance?

steady trail
#

though SB and symbols should naturally align

steady trail
#

in ST thistle tea should be used for energyh regen

balmy plover
#

what about overcapping energy with symbols

steady trail
#

The way it works out; in dance energy is fine, out of dance energy is tighter

#

so if you're sending symbols on cd and you're often overcapping energy with it, you're probably not being active enough outside of your dance

balmy plover
#

okay

#

when do I use eviscerate, combopointwise?

steady trail
#

#subtlety-faq has that if you want to reference it in the future, but the rule for finishing is 6+ outside of dance, and 5+ inside of dance

#

you do a lot of these double shadowstrikes which isnt necessarily bad

#

but you do them enough that id say most of them are unecessary

balmy plover
#

ya sometimes I fuck up since I never know when I generate an automated combopoint

steady trail
#

so there are trackers for that

#

but a good rule of thumb is that you'll get a proc ~once every other global

balmy plover
#

do you play with a weakaura package?

steady trail
#

i personally use aefnar's WA pack and trimmed it to what i care about

steady trail
#

the only case you'd want to SS again is if you have 4cp. if you get wm proc, you finish, if you crit, you finish on that global

#

thats a REALLY complicated way of saying "strike->finish" is VERY safe to do, just keep your eye open for low rolls of 4cp

balmy plover
#

okok makes sense

#

for the first dance in my opener

steady trail
#

The only other major issue i see is that you're sometimes refreshing rupture too late to get finality buff

balmy plover
#

is it ok to use that macro, and use abilitys individually from there?

#

rupture <4 seconds?

steady trail
balmy plover
#

OH TRUE SET

#

holy fuck

#

ah no

#

thats a talent

#

nvm sorry lol

steady trail
#

i apprecaite the enthusiasm :^)

steady trail
#

so im not going to say not to, the openers in the faq are optimized

#

so my official advice is to copy those

#

there are some other small optimizations to consider as well

#

these vanishes can be inside the openers dance to maximize SS damage

balmy plover
#

hm okay yes

steady trail
#

but i think "cds on cd" and "keeping finality rupture up as much as possible" should bump your pares by quite a bit

balmy plover
#

ya idk what to do with vanish, also I saw the rank1 terros log, the rogue did vanish in his first dance

steady trail
#

true stealth (ie: not dance) Shadow strike does 25% more damage

#

so if you use it after the sec tec in dance

balmy plover
#

oh wow, I didnt know

steady trail
#

it'll get 1.25x1.3x1.(DM stacks)

#

yeah its just ducttaped on at the bottom of the tool tip

balmy plover
#

I thought shadow dance is considered as "stealthed"

#

another stance I guess

steady trail
#

its a whole thing

#

short answer is yeah, its another stance

balmy plover
#

is there more Im doing wrong? more netpicking please

#

nitpicking* :D:D go in depth with me

#

I want to learn everything hahaha

steady trail
#

up time is good, greiftorch usage is ok although the channel is bandaiding your poor tea usage, rupture uptime in general is a little low, but we're working on that anyways,

#

im sure theres something im missing but i really do think your biggest issue is the back half your dance (after sectec) and missing a bunch of casts of dance

balmy plover
#

ok, I will try to work on everything u told me

#

really good advice, thank you so much for your time

steady trail
balmy plover
#

one more question

#

do I ever rupture inside dance if my finality is about to drop or did I fuck up because I had to rupture b4 dance?
