So just to preface, I feel my biggest struggle in keys in my ST dps. I have been playing HO in all the keys I've done thus far, but I'm open to trying KiR, but feel like I could just play what's comfortable since they're so close.

Here's my raid logs from Heroic Amirdrasill from today. Feel like my ST dps is still lower than it should be. I know with the suggested raid build, you play HO so I figured the playstyles would be similar enough to maybe look at and see where I may be going wrong, or if I just need to get luckier... starege

For instance, on a fight like Volcoross, I feel my damage was so much lower than it should be with the gear that I have. I know I probably made lots of mistakes, but on other fights, I feel like I did much better.

I'd love any tips or insight. Just here trying to improve and push into the 22-25 key territory

Okay so

#

one of the big parts of outlaw is the number of roll the bones buffs you have active at a given time

#

you want to get to 3 buffs as soon as possible and then hopefully chain 3 buffs for as long as possible

#

on volcoross, you used roll the bones before the pull, and got 1 buff (grand melee)

#

however when roll the bones came off cooldown again you should have rolled immediately to turn it into 3 buffs

#

also

#

you are using a lot pistol shots without its proc

#

these naked pistol shots

#

you should pretty much never press pistol shot unless its proc is active

#

you are also using between the eyes/dispatch between 1-4 combo points a lot

#

this is never correct, you should always spend combo points at 5+ inside stealth and 6+ outside of stealth

#

using dispatch at 1-2cp could be an accident (double casting it), it really hurts your damage

#

on smolderon there was a couple times roll the bones completely expired

#

this destroys your damage because then you dont get tier set on the next roll

#

you have to always clip your old buffs to activate the tier set

#

so overall

  • watch RTB buffs, your first RTB cast (after prepull) should be much sooner into the fight to turn 1-2 buffs into 3
  • chill with the naked pistol shot pressing
  • always watch combo points for every finisher (5+ inside stealth, 6+ outside of stealth)
  • never let RTB completely expire
#

oh also

#

vanish and dance should be used at 6+ CP into between the eyes

#

you should pretty much never vanish at low cp into ambush

#

you can do it if adrenaline rush is about to expire in like a global but that's a small minmaxy thing

#

you are definitely lagging on volcoross which is unfortunate

#

double dispatch into triple pistol shots

Thank you so much for taking the time to do that, I really appreciate it!
I do notice I sometimes double/triple press abilities, and I'm not sure if I'm lagging, or if I have some weird spell queue thing or most likey i'm just bad, but I'll try to work on that. I'll also be a lot more thoughtful with my RTBs and keeping a consistent 3 buff.
I'll also be sure to focus on making sure I use the right rules for combo points for finishers.

you can try to change your spell queue to like 200 + your ping

#

with /console SpellQueueWindow 250 or w.e number

#

the default is 400 and in theory this shouldn't really be a problem

but depending on how you mash keys you may benefit from slightly lower spell queue
