#

first thing i noticed was you immediately fucked up the opener dance by shadowstriking instead of gloomblading first

#

seems to be a theme actually

granite swan
#

Bad habit from pre-flagellation rotation, seems like im auto-piloting that

static panther
#

i mean even pre-flagellation it was always first

#

when running first dance talent first global in dance should be gloomblade

granite swan
#

Ah I see.

static panther
#

you ruptured in dance at the 4 minute mark

#

and flag'd in dance

granite swan
#

Do you never rupture in dance ever, even if its gonna fall off?

static panther
#

never

#

nor do you flag

#

you basically made that secret technique hit outside of dance so you lost all DM stacks and amps on it

granite swan
#

Got it, flag I think I knew and am just bad, but rupture i was worried about up time. I'll let it fall of.

static panther
#

refresh it before

granite swan
#

So better to over apply than always play for pandemic, got it

static panther
#

you can still always play for pandemic

#

also you had like 2 minutes of downtime in the fight which will tank your parse

granite swan
#

Yeah that I know, had someone steal my portal to drop laser so i went on a journey to find one. It's my only ST mythic parse though so still thought there was merit to looking over it with someone

static panther
#

but yeah just clean up your dances and you should be good

granite swan
#

So out of curiousity, looking at top parses people have deeper daggers at near 100% uptime

#

and mine is around 75%

#

is there something im doing wrong?

static panther
#

if you look

#

you can't really look at uptime% because you were not touching boss for 2 minutes

#

your deeper daggers is up the entire time you were on boss

granite swan
#

Oh my gosh I forgot to account for that, stupid on my part its my second raid tier ever so logs are a little over my head there

static panther
#

but yeah your damage was shit bc poor uptime

#

optimizing dance more will help too

granite swan
#

So outside of bad shadow-dance usage, everything else is decent? Someone in my guild mentioned my stat weights are bad, im missing a lot of vers. I have some gems from last season I slotted when I thought I was playing Sin before I swapped

static panther
#

whoever in your guild is simming your stat weights is a moron

#

you just sim top gear

#

vers will be more ST damage though

#

get rid of the haste gems

granite swan
#

You can't reslot gems right? im stuck until i replace pieces

static panther
#

you can replace them

#

you'll lose the original gem but 🤷

granite swan
#

Oh really? I thought I read gems are stuck there forever.

#

I'll do that for sure. Thanks a ton for going over that for me, anything else glaring or mostly just SD prio being super wrong

static panther
#

your SD was only wrong because you were running tfd btw

#

if you weren't running that talent it would have been fine but its just something to keep in mind for the st build

granite swan
#

Oh shit, maybe when I was learning oriingally I was looking at Non TFD without realizing

static panther
#

side note but non TFD you can go into dance at higher CP levels and still do the gloomblade first, otherwise its only if you land on 4 cp

#

but with TFD you always want to clear CP first because you'll waste cp otherwise

#

i dont think you had an issue with that from what i saw though

granite swan
#

If SD is coming up in 1 gcd, do you just send a gloomblade before using or pool energy to not over cap CP

#

if that makes sense

static panther
#

send a gloomblade because with new set its not like you need to pool energy for dances now, especially if you're running shadow focus talent too

#

maybe if you were really low on energy but i find with new set that dance + tea is usually all the energy you'd need

granite swan
#

Yeah i more so worry im gonna cap on CP so ill just sit for the 1 global sometimes until dance

static panther
#

and another small optimization is you can save vanish for flag dances

#

just to be able to guarantee another finisher in a flag dance

granite swan
#

Oh okay, so only vanish inside SD for when flag lines up

static panther
#

yeah bc you can hold vanish for a while because its not like you'll lose a charge

granite swan
#

True true, and always flag at full CP right, not off cooldown assuming not in SD

#

or, better question, do you save flag for when SD is about to come up

static panther
#

yeah always flag at full cp and follow it with a finisher

#

you can hold flag for a few seconds if SD will be coming up soon and vice verrsa

#

maybe 5?

#

not too sure about that one though

#

but otherwise just send flag off cd because you'll still get a dance in it

granite swan
#

Gotcha. I think thats my only other question.. how do people make money solo in this game? I'm real poor and gonna be broke buying new gems haha

#

i can ask that somewhere else if you dont want to answe btw

static panther
#

can play the AH or sell boosts or something

#

the weekly quests and world quests should be enough for gems and stuff tho

granite swan
#

Gotcha. Thanks a ton you've been super helpful. I'm still top 5ish in my guild, but saw the parse and was assuming that even outside the downtime cause of mechanics i was making mistakes

static panther
#

not touching the boss for 25% of a fight will kill your parse lol

#

usually the biggest parse killer for people is uptime...melee its hitting the boss and ranged is dropping casts

granite swan
#

For sure. When you use Shuriken Tornado in single target, when i do I try to use a builder and end up capping on CP, is that just whats going to happen?

#

we killed Zakali and my parse on that isnt very good either, not as bad

static panther
#

yeah shuriken tornado is scuffed on st i just dont bother

granite swan
#

That's fair. I'll post that log a differnet day don't want to take up all your time. Seriously thanks a ton.

static panther
#

you press it and treat it as an easy cp generation lol
