just put your log here 🙂

[sly ginkgo]

Thanks Fuu. here it is. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/dxcY9mWqMpb1vnyH/#fight=last

[iron mist]

will take a look later, currently a bit busy

[sly ginkgo]

no problem at all. take your time bro

[iron mist]

your chest enchant

should be eternal skirmish

it is normal to have lower rupture uptime on the fight, this is however quite low

slice and dice uptime looks good 👍

i am fairly certain that this 2 anima empowered cp did not get used

PV works diffrently

you basically want to sue pv stacks before entering dance

this mans between dances

using bs in dance is more of a min/max optimization and is a alternative

this is a repeating issue, i think PV is probably not explained or understood completely

but the traits main value is in the use outside of dance

it probably would have made sense here to use dance with symbols

because without that you basically had the half of symbols without dance

i think you lost a global in dance here

due to the er use very shortly before dance

you also start to delay symbols

it is on the fight often not that bad, but can depending on the fight timings matter

btw. you can without issue use shuriken throw when away from the boss, it is a nice way to stop wasting time/ressources

you started dance with a evi, you always want to start with a strike

you ignored pv here between the dances
refreshed rupture in dance
and did lose a global during your first dance

you wouldn't use a 3rd strike, i am certain you made a mistake here

so overall, you biggest improvement would come from playing PV correctly

you can just play it between dances, thats perfectly fine

if you feel super confident you can also do the mid dance backstabs but you need to be very carful with them as its a easy way to lose damage

hitting your er charges is also fairly relevant, and there are some other minor optimizations i mentioned

Thanks very much for spending the time on reviewing my logs. I am going through these and will ask questions below by replying to your points.

[sly ginkgo]

i have some trouble with hitting anima cp because of the auto attack cp generation. I have the weakaura to track the secret technique, but a lot of times when i just press a finishing, auto attack shift my cp to the next that is not empowered which is quite frustrating. When i see "soon" on the weakaura and on the anima point, is it safe to do finish move?

[sly ginkgo]

ah ok. i was more following the pinged mssg in sub discord with PV weakaura helping me. Pretty sure the reason i used backstab in dance in that section is because i was on 5+ Perforated Veins stacks, Shadow Blades is up and Shadow Dance lasts at least 3 more seconds.

[sly ginkgo]

looking at the timestamp, that would mean delaying dance by 10 seconds. I read the discord saying can be more aggressive on dance as Kyrian. Maybe i misunderstood the concept here. So it's ok to delay dance to line up with symbol if say it's within 10 seconds?

[sly ginkgo]

the sub faq opening for kyrian talks about using rupture immediately after emp-dance, so i was doing this too during the fight. are you saying after the opener is done, I dont ever need to refresh rupture like the opener?

[sly ginkgo]

i think here maybe i wanted to refresh rupture first before dance+symbol. Are you suggesting i should just press symbol there?

so here i should be doing envis after the strike at 262th sec, and then use backstab to consume PV, and then stab again if cp is not at max or max-1 to refresh rupture followed by dance? just want to make sure i also understand your point about "losing a global"

[iron mist]

you could add a swing timer for auto attacks, but if sht just procced it is quite safe to finish for anima charged cps

[iron mist]

why would you delay symbols here

well or rather why wouldn't you delay dance

to explain it

you want to play it agressively

this means use it a lot, the reason is you get a lot of 2p/4p procs by doing so what means more dance uptime....

but if you are barely on one charge of shadowdance

and symbols comes up in like 8 secs

you wait for dance to be used with symbols

if you don't do that

you can end up with something like this or worse

when you did send dance just before symbols, and in worse case can't use dance even during it

agressive use still means some thinking even tho "on cd" is not significantly worse

playing around this overlaps still makes sense
