#phoenikzz - Log Review

Here's a log comparison with another rogue who has similar trinkets as you and the same kill time. Your casts aren't the issue https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/compare/rCPp4xqK2jctMkhT/HZtMmWcB3CPTGJ6q?fight=7%2C3&type=damage-done&source=7%2CJøkër

my unseen blade hits are significantly lower

Your CB usage could be better.
I'm not entirely sure about the unseen blades, but at least I get why your sec tech numbers are lower. I think you overspending dances and having to delay the 2nd flag usage didn't do you any favors
steel hatch
Gotcha, is there a general rule of thumb for when to stop spending dances?
still delta
When flag comes off cd, you want to have full combo points and at least 1 charge of dance and at most 40 sec remaining on your shadow dance
or you can just stop dancing when flag cd is around 25 seconds remaining

one big difference is that even though using Kela's comparison log is that even though you have 30 cdg casts vs that other rogue's 34, only 14 of yours are in shadow dance vs their 24 https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/compare/rCPp4xqK2jctMkhT/HZtMmWcB3CPTGJ6q?fight=7%2C3&type=casts&source=7%2CJøkër&ability=441776&pins=2%24Off%24%23244F4B%24auras-gained%24-1%240.0.0.Any%240.0.0.Any%24true%240.0.0.Any%24true%24185422%24true%24true

Should I be saving cdg for dance windows?
tribal valve
besides that you are wasting some UB procs because you are already capped at 4 stacks EB https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/rCPp4xqK2jctMkhT?fight=7&type=damage-done&source=7&view=events&ability=441144&pins=0%24Separate%24%23244F4B%24auras-gained%24-1%240.0.0.Any%240.0.0.Any%24true%240.0.0.Any%24true%24441786 partly because you don't use storm between cdg in shadow blades
steel hatch
Yea I've been working on that and I think it's helping, but not fixing the issue entirely - I think what you mentioned with not many of my cdg procs being in dance might be another big part of the problem
tribal valve
you generally don't save cdg unless it's for flag, or your non-flag dance is like a couple seconds away. But the damage difference in cdg makes sense if your are mostly outside of dances since they are not amped
steel hatch
Gotcha, I'll work on that then, thank you for the help
tribal valve
you might be missing gcds in your dances, your casts are way fewer with just 1 dance difference (and you run TFD and they don't so the difference is like 0,5 dance really) https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/compare/rCPp4xqK2jctMkhT/HZtMmWcB3CPTGJ6q?fight=7%2C3&type=casts&source=7%2CJøkër&pins=2%24Off%24%23909049%24expression%24in+range+ ++++from+type%3D"applybuff"+and+ability.id%3D185422 ++++to+type%3D"removebuff"+and+ability.id%3D185422 end and ability.name+not+in+("Woven+Fate"%2C+"Shadow+Blades"%2C+"Feint"%2C+"Cold+Blood"%2C+"Symbols+of+Death"%2C+"Phase+Blink"%2C+"Cloak+of+Shadows"%2C+"Vanish"%2C+"Tempered+Potion")
you also ruptured in a dance which is wrong but that was only once it can't be the difference maker
steel hatch
I see, not sure why my overall casts inside of dance would be less, I probably spent a dance or 2 on the add phase during the pushback on the boss and they probably died before the SD window could end - That would be my best guess
tribal valve
either that or you are missing splitseconds between gcds (haven't checked - just a guess)
steel hatch
Gotcha, yea I think the more familiar I become the better my gcds will be because I'll be less hesitant on what abilities to press if that is the case
tribal valve
indeed, and if you are losing GCDs because of the pushback of the boss, or because you send a dance on the adds and they die too fast, just plan your dances around that
so if an add dies in 5s there is no need to send a dance and waste 3s of it
steel hatch
Yea makes sense
