Last I heard, your wpn damage was talking about heading out to Hollywood to be a big movie star

Also if you’re using relequen, apparently they nerfed the damage per stack from that in addition to how quickly you can build stacks.

Hi, I run a stam sorc with a similar setup and my parse from 3+ weeks ago is lower then the 5200 max weapon dmg you spoke about so I think you honestly had a broken parse. Especially if you are relying on an addon it can be buggy.

Running Imperfect Relequen/Veiled Heritance/Stormfist - All Gold(Maybe not 1 or 2 armor pieces) 6 Medium 1 Heavy
Nirn Dagger Poison / Infused Axe Berserker Main bar.
VMA Nirn Bow Diseased Back Bar.

Front:
Rending Slashes/Hurricane(2%)/Rearming Trap(2%)/Rapid Strikes/Bound Armor (2%) [Flawless Dawnbreaker(8%)]

Back:
Poison Inject/Endless Hail/Crit Surge(2%)/Razor Caltrops/Bound Armor(2%)[Greater Storm Atro(2%)]

Front bar will give me 14% weapon dmg from the skills, 20% from major brutality. Total: 34%
For you your getting 6% weapon dmg from templar passive, 2% trap, 8% dawnbreaker and 20% major brutality. Total: 36%

Veiled Herritance gives passive 129 weapon dmg and 400 conditional weapon dmg(can manage uptime of 85-95%)
Ravager gives passive 129 weapon dmg (only on front bar) and 630 conditional weapon dmg(probably get 50-70% uptime)

So by those differences in mind, my parse below of a max DMG at 4726 should be close to 4950-5k for you because of ravager.

TLDR: Based on my build that is practically the same as yours, you shouldn't have 650 more weapon dmg than me, meaning the numbers you read the other day were incorrect, bugged or skewed by an outside souce, but really the only thing left to increase your "max" possible dmg would be having minor brutality. [Parse below is from the first pts of the Wolfhunter DLC]

i did not change anything and the rele nerv only adressed users of the new blood moon set.

Are you talking about weapon damage on your character sheet, or weapon damage according to Combat Metrics after a fight?

It would be helpful if you provided more information about your build ... gear, skill bars, etc.

talking about max weapon damage in combat metrics and about 4k dps.

(dagger-nirn-poison, dagger-infused-berserker)
(vma-bow, nirn-life drain poison)

So a couple things about your build that may have affected your 4k dps loss.

1. Infused off hand is only affecting your berserker enchant, therefore your poison mainhand only has a chance to proc every 4 seconds.
2. Relequen had a change of how quickly you can stack it up, however the 1sec cd is in line with the GCD so it shouldn't of had a change on your build, should still get a stack every light attack -> skill press. This was to nerf the new light attack speed set.
3. Since back bar weapons now carry and remember their enchantments, endless hail will NO longer proc your poison enchant on your main hand front bar. It was doing that on live pre update 19. Endless hail hits every .5seconds so you would 100% proc it every 2 seconds with endless hail alone. Now you can only proc that poison enchant every 4 seconds from a light attack -> weapon skill press.
4. If you want to get some dps back, infused VMA bow with poison enchant will probably provide the most dps. I might do that + absorb stamina main hand and drop dubious cameron throne. Testing needed...
5. RNG.. Maybe you are getting unlucky with crits and your uptime on ravager.

You didn't accidentally lose your 5th piece of medium armor when you messed with the sets you were using did you?

I did that once and my dps collapsed.
