Ca's And Autoattacks

ArmillNailo · 08-19-2007, 05:21 AM

I need some help trying to figure out how to do this best so that i can actually maximize my dps. Cause currently when i try to time my autoattacks with ca's it feels like im losing out on dps and i don't know if im doing it right or not. But if anyone could help explain it to me better it would be a major help to me.

I would not time autoattack. I found that spamming CAs in the right order with a good timing does more DPS. This might not be the case if it would lag less, but atm I don't see any reason to time auto attack. The only time I actually do so is with one autoattack bow shot after ranged CAs.

You have to do very little timing if at all really. Auto attack hits automatically during the recovery time of CAs and since ours cast so fast, you lose very little autoattack. Only time you really lose a significant amount of autoattack is during a concealment chain because that is 7sec (max) that you are not autoattacking at all.

And get Repeated Stabbing.

Wouldn't repeated stabbing hurt auto attack? Can you auto-attack during the recovery time? Even if it doesn't hurt it, it doesn't seem it would help any.

So, did RS actually increase your auto-attacks? Or was that just a general, off-topic comment because you love RS so much?

Repeated stabbing has pretty much no effect on autoattack at all, just allows you to spam CAs quicker. Autoattack hits during the recovery time and since the casting time has not changed at all with/without RS, its affect on autoattack is minimal, if at all. I'd say not at all, but Im too lazy to test it and dont really care that much.
