Hey legends,
Was hoping if some of you experts could help assist me in improving my raid dps. Im very new to the game started playing around s1 this xpac and just very noob. One of the key areas i really wanted help on is my opening and dps in general. ive watched alot of arms vods and i can never pull the same dps numbers they are at any point of a pull especially at the start of a pull my damage is nowhere close. I can get around 2 mil to 2.5 mil at the start of a pull but was wondering how i can increase this as i see many arms warrios with similar ilevel do alot more consistantly. im aware i make alot of rotation areas and uptime needs alot of work but any help especially with opener and areas i need to focus on to improve would be much appreciated. Thanks

Well, for starters, do you track opportunist and juggernaut/when to execute? And if so, what type of weakauras or similar did you grab?

ive got a weak aura for when to use execute above 35% hp and jugg i just made a weakaura and put it in the centre of my screen to track the buff. and as for opportunist i just use the ingame one where those stripes like appear on the sides, those yello goldenish ones

In your opener you tend to potion parallel to your charge - try to overlap your potion with your avatar and house of cards cast.
As for your juggernaut and opportunist usage, you tend to click your opportunist procs or mortal strikes instead of your sudden death procs, causing your juggernaut to run out.
Inside of the execute phase, you waste a lot of opportunist procs. Opportunist procs are a higher priority than execute within the execute phase, please remember that.
It's MS with 2x Executioners Precision > Opportunist proc Overpower > Execute > Overpower when low on rage

#

I also noticed that you tend to click overpower a lot despite not having an opportunist proc and mortal strike being ready

#

Generally you're doing well but you need to iron those casts out

this is huge exactly what i was looking for. tysm. also in execute range if im low on jugg stacks would i use more execute to kinda try get 15 asap or just stick to the prio

are you still using a 671 ring? I'm pretty sure that a crafted r ing will be better.
You can also think about catalysting your myth helmet (despite it being really good by itself) just so you can craft leggings as your off-piece. That will yield in slightly worse stats but you gain +10 ilvls on your pants. You can sim if that ends up being better for you.

yeah i was hoping to that with my gear once i had more sparks available

#

ok prio it is tysm

#

also with normal rotation is opportunist proc higher prio than MS?

hollow falcon
#

you click execute

opportunist procs
you click overpower
you click execute
you click mortal strike
opportunist procs
you click overpower
you click execute
opportunist procs
you click overpower
you click execute
you click mortal strike

#

so on and so forth

#

just stick to the priority list
