Hi! I don't think i do too bad but i do see compared to higher parses i am down quite alot in DPS, best logs looking around 5mil or greater. Looking for advice as to where i'm messing up to make that difference. Gear Stats, Rotation Issues, or otherwise i feel a little lost on what i could be working on. Thanks for Reading! https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/ALW8hC2kXMaV71bT?fight=1&type=damage-done&source=14

There aren’t really any massive issues rotationally from a quick look at the ST bosses but some recurring things happen:
-You drop enrage on a few fights for a decent amount of time such as Naazindhri / Forgeweaver / Soulhunters, some of it may be due to mechanics and I can only compare to my last clear where I had higher uptime generally.
-Ashen Juggernaut is dropping often on fights, it looks like there are periods where you either have a SD proc ready to use or the boss is sat on 3 MfE stacks, if you are using the Execute weakaura it has a higher priority than everything but your main cooldowns and should always be pressed when enraged as a priority.
-There are a few moments where you are Rampaging straight after channelling Bladestorm without stacking up Slaughtering Strikes.
Since you are comparing to top logs bear in mind you are behind gear wise compared to them, most entered this week at ~707-708 and will finish at 711+ whilst you are ~704, a solid M+ grind would be beneficially as you have a large number of items that haven’t been upgraded to 704 which finishes Hero track. The soul-hunters boots is also a large upgrade which you don’t have currently.
I may have missed it but I couldn’t see your 3% damage buff from the raid renown track, if you have time before raid on a week where it’s available you should try and spam out a few LFR wings beforehand.

Thank you for replying! I have had some bad luck with m+ drops so definitely stuck with some bad pieces, and missing those boots definitely hurts.
A thing i was wondering: it seems theres a few moments where we dont care about overcapping rage: Major CDs, Post Bladestorm. Does this includes SD at max stacks and Stacking Slaughtering for any rampage? Or should i stack only until greater than 110 rage.
Thanks again!

At a glance you might not see massive numbers from farming your upgrades but it starts adding up pretty quickly, the boots/cloak are still subject to a bit of RNG but it's definitely a noticable upgrade 🙂
Only worry about stacking Slaughtering Strikes straight after Bladestorming to take advantage of Brutal Finish, you can pretty much ignore it other than here as you'll generally be pressing RB more than anything else to build rage anyway.
If you are running the Exe WA and it tells you to press it, do so regardless of rage (assuming you are enraged ofc) as it has a higher priority than any non-cd.
Trying to minmax overcapping will take a little getting used to, the 115+ rage rule is really more to protect us from being sat with very little to press after rampaging if you don't get any RB resets.
