I'm guessing most of this is going to be pretty minor, but just looking for some things to work on improving going forward.

Early add fights I just run full ST like rik, vexie, and Stix because the adds have been dying so fast it doesnt seem like I get much value. So those are probably doomed to not improve that much.

bro not even doing that bad, first thing i always check is gear though, the only "bad" thing i notice is the gems, which is incredibly minor but as far as i know, having a mainstat gem with all 4 gem types is just better, the 0.15% crit effect is the obvious choice, the movement speed gem isnt bad either for uptime. This is very small though.

a possible bigger thing is you have unbridled ferocity talented in your latest vexie kill which makes me believe you are running that on every ST boss in the encounter, its better to have 2/2 in deft experience.

gallywix is your worst parse though so ill go over that, you kill the boss before phase 3 so you automatically are already at a disadvantage because you dont get to pad on those, ill link a picture which shows you and another warrior (top 10 log) he has the exact same cooldown usage and peaks at the same time you do, also almost identical kill time, however he does way more damage than you.

The first thing is he has short troar talents, and gets 100 million more damage from troar than you do, which is the only talent difference and while it does matter, there is a bigger problem here and its cooldown usage, in the picture i linked below he has 2 spots where he peaks way higher than you do (circled in red), its caused ENTIRELY by what vezna (other warrior in the log) does earlier in the fight, he saves his 4th reck for almost a full minute so he can pad harder on the adds, where as you send it instantly, but since he saved his, he ends up getting to have reck on a fat ass add stack where as you dont and suffer greatly because of it (second red circle)

#

the red bars are all of veznas reck casts, it means he gets to have reck + avatar up for more important parts of the fight instead of prioritizing uptime for reck (3 blue bars before the red bars start appearing means you both used reck at the same time)

#

you can see you actually get 1 more reck cast than he does, but he does 600k more dps than you do, and its entirely because of this reason

#

you both do the exact same strategy and have the exact same kill time btw, but this one simple thing is the different between 3.7 million and 4.3 million dps on this boss

#

also the topic where has more casts than you in some important abilities whilst having the same kill time but thats above my pay grade as a pretty much arms only player right now, fury is entirely a spec (ESPECIALLY ON AOE) that is dependant on when and how you use cooldowns to parse, more so than any other class because we get cooldowns back so often compared to other specs which allows for you to do greedy things like this where you can hold reck for a full minute but then have it line up better later in the fight.

#

oh yeah he also has 2 points in deft experience instead of 2 points in vicious contempt which in my opinion is better on this fight than 2/2 VC

Thank you for the time

@frail sapphire that major spike in damage is the intermission add spawn right?

#

It looks like i didnt get a single reap the storm proc there too, his went crazy

pine oasis
#

Looks like over 80% of the differential between us is his reap procs and having roar up there

#

Like 160m damage between those 2

frail sapphire
#

It was mostly due to him having reck (avatar due to talent) and troar on the adds

#

Yeah it is reap rng
