I've stayed fairly silent for years on my inability to throw out good / decent DPS.. but It's finally driven me up the wall. Can't sit any longer and not ask why is it so shocking?
I decided to reboot my StamSorc last night (because you know.. meta #yolo) and barely pulled any more than 16K DPS on a 6 Mill Vet Target Skeleton.
I'm at a loss as to why. Help.
I do suffer the Aussie Ping rage. At best I get 280 (maybe 10 less with mudfish). Usually its 300-310 territory. Framerate isn't an issue, I get 100fps easily most of the time (GTX1080).
It's an Orc. Lover Mundus all Divines. Stats are about 14.5k health, 26k stam and 11k'ish mag. Stam Rec is around 1k unbuffed. CP i'll have to check later but i know i have 37 into Piercing and a ton divided between Precise Strikes, Mighty, Master-At-Arms, and Phys Wep Expert
Gear - Running all medium and purple,
5pc Spriggans (Divines) Purple,
5pc Night Mother Gaze (Infused Jewellery - Purple, Gold Wep Dmg Enchant)(DW, 1xAxe Sharpened, 1 x Dagger Nirnhoned)(Bow Nirnhoned)
2pc Selene's (Divines, Med Shoulder, Heavy Helm)
According to /CMX my penetration is sitting at a mean average of 16,500 (this is after NMG Major Fracture is applied)... Weapon Damage buffed with Surge is at around 3900, crit is 45%.
Bar 1 (DW) is Rending, Trap, Rapid Strikes, Soul Split Trap, Surge - Dawnbreaker
Bar 2 (Bow) is Barrage, Ring of Pres, Poison Inj, Hurricane, DD - Atro
I haven't tested this with Arteum Food yet.. But that's next on the agenda. In a group scenario i would swap out NMG for Vicious Ophidian as tank will run fracture anyway. But this is initial skeleton testing solo. Also currently haven't enchanted/poisoned the weapons yet.. i know that'll add a few K DPS but i ran out of time last night doing that part.
I could swap out Surge and run pots to get that Major Brutality and Savagery and maybe stick another skill in there, possibly same with Dark Deal but was using that for Stam sustain and self heal when wandering.
On the surface these stats look great, I don't think I'm having too much trouble with rotation.. Surge, SWAP, Ring of Pres, Barrage, LA, Injection, LA, Hurricane, SWAP, Trap, LA, Soul Split, LA, Rending, LA, Rapid, Rapid, Rapid, LA.... rinse repeat.
Why though.. can't i seem to break 16k on this? It doesn't make mathematical sense? I'm not chasing ridiculous 100k+ DPS, I'd be happy with at least 30.. but why can't I even get there?
Pen sets are for 4 person dungeons or PvP, not parsing. Relequen/Advancing is still bis. If you either can't get your hands on Advancing (those dagger drops suuuuck) or you have it but can't keep up your stacks, go with Leviathan. For the pen, have a friend puncture for you, or just parse on the 21m atro dummy if it's available to you.

Most of what I'll end up doing on this will be Group Dungeons.. still yet to test with someone else puncturing but yeah totally agree Rele (or even Loki) is still on the cards to replace the hundings i chucked on.. farming Adv Yok/Rele/Loki though has to wait till the weekend because the only time i can get a group together to run trials is in American prime time.. which is 9am in the morning for me and I'm at work

well new patch, everyones taken a hit.. decided to dust off the DK..
looking good so far... got it to 53K (parse after this. it had 28% berserker uptime because enchant wore off)- still think theres room for improvement though, i know theres at least another 10-15 in this..
i think the weakness is Light Attacks at this point and getting them to connect. it just feels like the LA's are not connecting with each press of the left mouse button.. and that whatever animation is in progress just wont cancel.. is there any tweaks for this to get it to register? (i.e. upping mouse click sensitivity etc?)
What helped me was training the parts of the rotation. So when I was learning how to LA weave I spammed Hail injection caltrops over and over. Start slowly (be sure every LA hits the dummy) and than slowly increase the speed. Then choose other part of the rotation. Practise it. If you get it right choose bigger part of the rotation etc.well new patch, everyones taken a hit.. decided to dust off the DK..

Try slowing it down a little. Make all of your clicks super pronounced , with your finger fully off of the previous key/button/trigger before hitting the next one. Speed can be your enemy when developing a parse, especially with some of the more over-the-top dramatic animations.

i think that might be part of the problem. i mash it like theres no tomorrow. will try that
