High ping dummy parses

Runefang · February 2018

After spending 15 hours or so this week smashing target dummies I still can't get higher than 34k on any of my dps toons. My 2H Stamsorc maxes out at 29k (no fracture), my magplar and non-pet magsorc both hit 34k. I'm sure I can hit 35k with a pet sorc but I really don't like running a pet sorc so trying to do it with other builds.

I sit on 280-300 ping most nights and I struggle to get a 8 second rotation done in time. So if anybody with 280+ ping can show me a nice 35k+ parse that would be great, I need some encouragement

If there are any tips to bring down my ping that'd be good or dealing with high ping in rotations that be appreciated too.

I'm planning to try recording a few magplar parses over the next few days so maybe somebody can point out what I'm doing wrong.

Vpn can help on some cases

Between my high and low ping location i had 5k dps difference in the past. Didnt test it lately.

My stamsorc hit at 35k dps though prior to this update. With 350ms average ping

My stam sorc barely hit 30k (solo, no fracture). Ping keep jumping around 280-350, not stable, so sometime I hit the skill then swap bar only to realise skill didn't go off. I have no trial gear, only MA bow.

My magblade is even worst, struggle to hit 25k solo, with elemental drain self buff. Also no trial gear, only MA staff.

Wow

I can only get 22k with my magdk dps i just can't seem to get higher no matter what i do.

Just giving this a little bump to see if there are any Aussies who can hit over 35k in a dummy parse. I know you're out there!

Ping is not an excuse for low dps. I hit 42k on a 3 mill with 22 erosion before the fix to merciless. I get 330 ping generally on the target dummy.

For having played in both environment I can tell you that high ping makes it harder to reach high numbers.

High ping Does not make it impossible to have high DPS number but definitely makes it harder.

Eh not really. Its more the lag spikes that *** you over more then anything.

I’m Australian also. I’ve Hit 44.3k on my Stam DK and 41.3k on my mag blade after only playing magblade for 2 days. Both were completely solo and I have videos of each. The main thing to remember is that for perfect parses like that you can’t miss a single light attack. If you aren’t at the point yet where you realise that then the rotation itself is more then likely the reason.

In saying that though, high ping makes my weaving very different than the U.S players as they can LA>skill and never worry about weaving again. We have to make sure we give out LA that .3 second (ping) to register and start that LA animation before we hit our skill so we don’t override the weave. This doesn’t result in any loss of damage though as I’ve never seen anyone hit higher than my DK with blue jewellery on the target dummy. All the same amount of weaves and abilities are being done, just the gap between LA and skill has to incorporate your ping.

Turn off WIFI On the phones and your kid can’t watch Netflix though when you’re in a trial because those lag spikes can’t be accounted for. That’s pure DPS loss

2h Stam Sorc and magplar aren’t going to be helping your numbers either. Not saying don’t play what you like but if you are aiming at top numbers they won’t get you there easily. Pet Sorc would be your best bet and there is nothing wrong with a pet Sorc build. My first guy to ever parse 40k was my pet Sorc build. Very easy and fun

You might be right, I could be cancelling my LAs too often when I'm weaving. I will practice a single rotation at a time and see if I get a LA for each skill I fire off.

I'm also too slow in my rotation most of the time, by about 0.2-0.3 seconds. So Blockade falls off for that short time. Obviously that extra time is all adding up against the dummy too. Some times I do get it spot on but I haven't learned how to get that 100% perfect as yet.

Yeah I notice I do a lot better on my NB when I go slower with my light attacks to make sure to trigger relentless focus. Still my stamblade only does 17K because they are set up for PVP.

I am light attacking between each skill with my magdk, It is that I am double casting my skills and double light attacking and nothing runs smoothly.

Luna too op. Teach me how to 40k dps magblade. I send nudes.

It's hard in Australia with high ping and 5mb/s download speeds, but the numbers you are looking for are achievable, just takes a lot of practice.
