How do i do it? And is it needed to be an effective DPS. Currently only getting about 12k dps. Granted im not fully geared and only have standard purple weapons.

    Here is an old guide by Lefty Lucy which explains the mechanics.

    Note! It often fails if your ping is high. I am in Australia & so have a 250-300ms ping usually & more often than not the animation cancel fails because of lag.

    Aussie ping won't stop you cancelling you just need to adjust your timing

    Yup. Sometimes it works just fine, other times a key press will just go missing. Lost in the aether!

    So are you still able to get decent DPS with your ping. I main a healer so i haven't had any problems before but healing is pretty easy compared to dps in this game, IMO anyway.
