Is my crit hindering my DPS? https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/QnTVZK1zL4pH8Fwy?fight=9&type=summary&source=88

You're missing quite a bit of crit, but you're also making a lot of mistakes with your abilities

You casted prep at 2 min mark, which is incorrect.
What you're supposed to do is do your raid opener which you can find in #outlaw-faq
After your ADR expires + BtE and BR are on CD, that's when you press prep (roughly 15-20 seconds into the pull)

You're also somehow not casting dispatch enough, compared to my own normal kill which was ~2:30, I somehow casted more dispatches than you in 4:37

Also to add to the Prep usage, there is extra min-max, where you don't KiR on pull, unless you get stage 3 or higher

If you get stage 2, you hold KiR and wait to use Prep, then you ADR + roll and then KiR (this is min-max fishing for something better than stage 2, since you'll have guaranteed stage 2 anyways)

Looks like you're sending some BtEs at 5cp, which is incorrect, we're aiming to use BtE at +6cps

And dispatch send at +5cps, but it looks like you're constantly building to send it on +6

This is what's throwing me. I can't for the life of me figure out why my dispatch casts are so low compared to others. I thought I read somewhere that you use SS as a builder if you have a level 2 or higher RtB proc unless you have a 6 stack Opportunity which should get you to 6 combo points. When it doesn't get to 5 though, I end up casting the opportunity after the SS to get above 5. Is that why?

No

There are simply gaps where you're not casting dispatch for some reason

To me it looks like you're simply not pressing buttons fast enough, and you overbuilt cps when not needed, leading to just less casts of finishers

To illustrate better

This is 1:01-1:26 timestamp

You cast blade flurry at 1:12.163
Your next cast is PS at 1:13.460
Which looks like around ~1.3s, where our gcd is 1s and 0.8 during ADR respectively

Then there are also gaps like you cast dispatch at 1:15:467 and your next cast is SS at 1:19:436

Also your opener is not correct.
As per faq:

Adrenaline Rush > Roll the Bones > Keep it Rolling > Blade Rush > Dispatch > build to Between the Eyes > ... (continue priority)```

You skipped dispatch and sent BtE, which lead to you getting SnD ~5seconds into the pull

It's not major, but again it's small mistake which just adds up to the whole pile

Hope my explanation is somewhat helpful, pretty much everything I said is in #outlaw-faq
