So there's four main things that you'll want to work on moving forward, with three of them pretty much all being tied to each other, essentially.

The odd one out, to start with, is your blocking. It's less uptime of Shield Block or anything, and more getting hit in the back an uncomfortable amount while shield block is up. This picture here is hits you took while shield block was active, meaning that only hits that hit you from behind would be unblocked.

Theoretically, that should be closer to 0%, though in practice due to gathering/mob stuttering/etc, that won't ever really be the case

#

Almost 13% is a little high, though

Ok so that I have found also out. So there is nothing else that stands out dps wise? I think I may over hitting revenge and I don't know if I can change up some of the execute capstones to have better dps

Sorry, I got interrupted in the middle

#

DPS wise, the other three factors stand out a lot, notable

You're wasting a lot of rage, specifically 1434, or 14 whole rage bars worth. This costs a lot of Avatar/Shield Wall uptime, and lowers the number of Outbursts you get

#

This costs you drastically in damage, since Outbursts are a huge influx of damage, and just being in your main damage CD for about 75-80% of the time you could be is just sad times for damage purposes.

#

On top of that, your casts of your main prio abilities are fairly low; you've only gotten up to about 11.4 CPM on Shield Slam, for example, when you could be a lot closer to 13-15 CPM, which is a ton more rage, ton more damage, and a lot more thunder blast procs to pump out even more damage and rage.

#

It looks like you're spending a lot of your time revenging, so it looks like you're spending a lot of time on sending revenges when SS has probably reset or is off CD. On top of that, it also looks like you're not sending most of your CDs properly on CD, since all of Demo Shout, Roar, and Shield Charge have CDs less than a minute either baseline or with the talents you've selected. Demo Shout is particularly standout, as you're reducing its CD from its base 45s with Thunderlord and... you cast it 21 times in a 26 minute dungeon. The CDR you have on it gave you no extra casts at all with how little you're pressing it. It feels like you're trying to cast things on CD, since your shield charges have only like 5-10s gaps from when they could have been sent while in combat (meaning it wasn't downtime that caused the extension; you were fighting and should have sent it), so this might be something to adjust your UI to make it easier to know when your CDs become available.

#

All of this costs you rage in the long term, which affects both your damage output and survival due to Anger Management

#

You get less Shield Walls over time due to no CDR, and less Avatar means you get to press Thunder Clap/Blast less, which means less rage and less pressing your main damage abilities that also generate rage

#

It all compounds on itself very hard, so it just kind of hurts you twice for what often would be a minor mistake for some other specs.
