Default Autoattack timing?

Hi Assas

I have heard from tools to time your autoattack.
Is it interested vor assassins? i have seen Swashis and Brigas where outpase an Assa.
Group from the swashy: illu, dirge, mysti, furye
dps 6-7k all trash in SOH

Assa group: dirge mysti bersi templer warden assa
dps :5-7k (7k only when execute was up)

ok group for the swashy was realy good, but outparse an assa ...
bad ^^
The swashy is time his Autoattack. the other swashy who didnt time A.atk. make 4k dps.
make a.Atk timing so a huge jump in dps?

thx

FYI, this advice is from a brigand..... lol!

For me, timing my auto attack has netted a decent amount of dps. I used to be from the school of spam to my hearts content and sit there and do nothing for 10 - 15 seconds.

If most of your combat arts have the same casting time and recovery time *(before modifiers)

Autoattack timer - EQ2Interface

Install this mod into your UI. Cast the number of combat arts it tells you to and pause a moment for an auto attack. Once it is updated from the developer (I'm waiting on this myself) to update per combat art cast, it will be worth even more.

The other way, is to turn off combat spam for everyone in raid except your spells and heals, then watch for a bunch of numbers to appear all at once (auto attack usually procs a bunch of procs and causes a cluster of numbers to appear above the mobs head) and then spam 2 - 3 combat arts and then wait for the next spam.

In all honesty, using both methods would be the best to maximize your auto attack potential. (The plug in doesn't update fast enough and I've been relying on watching the numbers above the mobs head).

One other method you can do is to set act to beep on every auto attack. i find this annoying as hell after the first raid... So it has limited uses.

Damn, i should post this in the brigand forums too.... /off to xpost good infos


Left the original post.

My advice was very brigand ish and after reviewing more assassin info's ive come to the conclusion that the advice was misdirected. My apologies

10-15seconds with no CA to cast....what class do you play?

Timing your auto attack is only usefull before you burn a conceal chain...wait till it lands that extra time then conceal...other then that no dont bother, learn your cast patterns.

Learn to read.... And i was exaggerating.. but not by much.. i literally have no combat arts up if i spam hardcore for a good 5ish seconds or more.


And it was only a suggestion... geesh.. outside a concealment chain.. its solid advice... i think.. LOL!

Thats what i get for coming in here and trying to help... I'm out

Your not helping, your spreading misinformation to assassins. Its the second post today in this section that you completely made yourself look like a noob with no idea what they are talking about.

Take your brigand tips to the brigand section and look less like a noob.

Because at most you'll only delay it a fraction of a second. Have you looked at your ca's?
