#Evade log analysis
solid warren
opened a thread
taking a look shortly
rupture uptime could be slightly higher
slice and dice uptime seems fine
your first dance
gleaming fiber
you mess up dance rotation a bunch
solid warren
you didn't hit all 8 gcds
if you want to, you can use storm as 2nd gcd here
it guarantees find weakness
strike-storm-rupture
gleaming fiber
about half-way through the fight you start using st as your first finisher in dance
solid warren
2nd dance
again 7 gcds
you have a bad habbit too
of using dance when starting a gcd
barren raven
So im missing my 8th gcd?
solid warren
it does make it for you harder to hit all gcds
only looked at the first 2 dances, but in both times you did
gleaming fiber
also this bit here is bad
solid warren
^
gleaming fiber
because you go into dance with 4cp, you gloom to 5, ss to 10+
barren raven
Ah k.. so im bungling up my shadow dance window.
gleaming fiber
if gloom or ss crit thats 2 more cp you might have, if you have sblades running thats another 2. so that combo might be overcapping by a full finisher
gleaming fiber
this is another dance where you miss a full global, and use st in the wrong spot
solid warren
tea use is mostly for energy
barren raven
I guess i just need more practice. Loving this feedback
solid warren
while, you didn't waste tea uptime if you do what you did
as you saw in the energy curve
you did basically sit on low energy and not use tea
barren raven
I’ll keep yea use to low energy instead of trying to fit it into shadow dance windows for the extra mastery
Tea *
solid warren
you can use it in first dance
but after that you want to primarly use it for energy
barren raven
Ya that makes sense. No point leaving it 3/3
solid warren
if you rly can't use it for a minute and are about to cap
ofc you can use it during dance too
but that shouldn't happen usually
also about energy
i don't know your energy levels
but waiting doing nothing so long is inefficient
not certain why you had a like 3-4 sec gap randomly there
gleaming fiber
also check out the finality rupture optimization
barren raven
Is that a weak aura Zypher?
gleaming fiber
i don't know how to get wcl to show just that buff and dance windows to check for sure
barren raven
Fuu I may have been mistakenly pooling energy while I waited for optimum rupture finality but who knows
solid warren
the problem with artificial downtime is
you basically waste globals you could use finisher/builder on
this is why you usually don't wait much
you rarely pool
barren raven
Yea, like I could have gb evis and rebuilt for the rupture
barren raven
Rather than sit there pooling and if I didn’t waste my teas I could have used it there instead
solid warren
its a small optimization tho
gleaming fiber
yea its not huge, and it often happens sort of naturally. if you look at your timeline here
solid warren
also one thing about vanish
you only used it 2 times during the fight
the fight lengh is fairly short ofc
but ~3 min fight you can easy fit 3
gleaming fiber
you did it on your own in the first half of the fight, and not in the second half
barren raven
Always after secret tech?
gleaming fiber
so in this chunk here you could have used up the buff on that dance, letting you get a buffed rupture for both your last dances and saved a rupture cast
barren raven
What’s that mean exactly zyp im confused with the wording? Use rupture 10 seconds after shadow dance or hold off using shadow dance on cooldown for up to 10 seconds if it means I can use an optimal finality rupture?
So like shadow dance can be used but I don’t use it so I can get in a rupture?
gleaming fiber
if you have the finality rupture buff up, and your dance has less than 10 seconds left on the cooldown you rupture ignoring pandemic
solid warren
gleaming fiber
so if you look at the picture there, its of your buffs. so when you don't have finality rupture buff, it means you have finality rupture applied to terros
barren raven
So regardless if say I have 30 seconds left on rupture, I should re rupture if I have the finality rupture buff and shadow dance is useable in less than 10 Seconds?
gleaming fiber
if you look at the green windows, you use up the buff, and it lasts two dances. you gain the buff again because you've applied a fresh rupture, then the buff gets used and it lasts the next two dances
barren raven
Is the goal to have finality rupture on as much as possible?
gleaming fiber
yea it gets finality rupture up for every dance (except the very initial one)
barren raven
I was wondering if it was best to use 1 combo point rupture for the finality buff then full combo point finality rupture
barren raven
K
Im struggling to get all 8gcds in the shadow dance window. Maybe it just comes with practice
But as fuu was saying, im missing the 8th a lot
Any tips to get them all in?
gleaming fiber
yea thats definitely the biggest issue, but also make sure your dance ordering is correct
barren raven
Yea, 8 gods and proper order
gleaming fiber
practice, pretty much. there might be a gcd timer weakaura or something to help you with that, i have no idea off hand
barren raven
Do I have the exact order correct? Shadow dance, gb, evis, shadow strike, cb, ST, shadow strike, evis?
Err that’s only 6gcbs so add another shadow strike evis?
gleaming fiber
its going to vary some depends on if you get crits and wm procs. but ideally yes
the first 4 should be the same every time, since its always the same, but after st you might not be able to so strike-evis-strike-evis
it might be strike-strike-evis-strike for example, or strike-evis-strike-strike
barren raven
Gotcha, thanks again to you and Fuu for all your help. I got some work to do
It’s one thing to practice with a target dummy. But doing it while dodging boss mechanics is another thing. Thanks to you guys though I know where I need to improve
solid warren
Any tips to get them all in?
try to not use dance during the gcd esp. not as early as you did
it usually comes down to comfort else
just playing more should make you more comfortable hitting all globals
