When we measure DPS

siddique

Do we include ultimates or is it only light and heavy attacks with abilities?

idk

Everything. A test dummy is really just the start but it should measure what your actual rotation should be.

I say it is the start because what really matters is what you do in actual boss fights and of course there you would be using your ultimate.

You use your ultimate as much as you can.

Typically you recharge your ultimate after a parse then reset the dummy (by putting it away and placing it again)

Turelus

As idk said you should be doing what you would do during a boss fight with perfect conditions to find what your upper limit is.

Be aware though that deliberately cheesing a pass to make it higher (using things you wouldn't in a real fight) doesn't help.

I like to bash it to death

Ooh, I've been cursing myself for a miserly 25k dps I can go much higher when I drop ultimates! awesome thanks!
