I don't weave, I hate the playstyle and because of that I can't seem to get my DPS much above 20k. I have read tutorials out the wazzoo, copied builds from popular players/streamers/you tubers, golded entire sets (sans rings/neck), placed CP points according to tuts and I have a low ping and I still can't get much above 20k, not on my sorc, not on my templar, not on anything.

I really don't want to be rude and what you are doing is fine for normal content but If you don't like the Playstyle why Play at all?
Weaving will never be removed and it is necessary to keep combat fluently. Also you burn through your ressources a lot faster If you don't weave.
Hope you really never enter vet content.
Also I doubt you could have really copied any end game build because to get the gear you would have to play vet trials and arenas. With 20k dps it would have been Impossible unless you bought carry runs. I get 20 k If I Just use my spamable and maybe 1 dot.
Weaving isn't hard just learn and try it or stay with casual content.
hey, did you know that gear drops in... normal trials as well? and that you can still copy an end game build WITHOUT perfected sets? and many builds call for sets that drop in trials that existed before perfected set thing, so there ARE no perfected sets? did you know that farming on normal and then simply upgrading from blue is faster AND easier and most people prefer i when it comes to sets that do not have perfected versions? (and many builds also offer alternative setups with world drops/dungeon/crafted sets)
yes, weaving is part of this game. unfortunately. I say unfortunately, because not everyone can do it. yes even with practice.
I watched my Gf tonight at the target dummy try to get over 12k on multiple toons and it completely bummed her out because she uses textbook builds by alcast including gear (except for monster helms because vets intimidate her and rightfully so. WE both have been at the receiving end of some extreme elitism in this game). She is trying extremely hard to pull better numbers, and its just not happening.
Get a metronome app (either onto your pc or your mobile, does not matter where, it's the sound only what you need) set it to 57-58 BPM (beat per minute, it's slightly below the the 1 sec cooldown interval which would be 60 BPM), and then just simply press light attack and skill when you hear the tick. (tick: la skill, tick: la skill, tick: la skill, ...)
Start with one simple spamable skill like force pulse, and just practice with that to get the rhythm. When you get the hang of it then add a dot like elemental blockade and practice with two skill (tick: la blockade, 8x tick: la forcepulse, tick: la blockade, 8x tick: forcepulse ...) Then move blockade to backbar and practice barswap too, just with these two skill, nothing more (tick: la blockade swap, 7x tick: la forcepulse, 1x tick: la forcepulse swap, tick: la blockade swap, ...) Then keep adding skills on back and frontbar one by one to build up your rotation, just practice each step until you feel comfortable with the number of skills you're using before adding another one.
