using anything to do more damage IN BETWEEN auto attacks will always end up doing more dps, than just standing there auto attacking alone. If it was a choice, like one OR the other, I'd agree...but you can have both, assuming the cast time isn't very long, and based on the amount of damage it's doing. I didn't understand this myself for awhile and removed a few CA's from my hotbars. If your average auto attack delay is 1.3 seconds, than anything that has a cast time of under 1.3 seconds, will help, even if it's a tiny bit of damage, assuming you time it perfectly between auto attacks. If it takes longer than the 1.3 seconds (or whatever your REAL delay is) than you have to look at how much damage it is doing vs your auto attack damage and make a judgement call.

Or just be lazy like me and use your imbued strength and agi rings when DPSing/OTing and just keep up your 2 DoT CAs between hits.
I usually average about 1300-1500 dps with my craptastic V Sword with no arm or dps mod, when i use the rings.
Yeah I miss my dirge lubbin.../cries

ill let ya'll know what the verdict is when things get back to normal..our dirge's modem died so he was boxed last night for FTH ... and despite being in offensive while using breach and other things a bit more (used bind wounds more'n normal too) my DPS was down ... stupid no cacophony and i think wrong buffs.

When I do get to MT MMIS I get some nice boosts from coercer and dirge, but yeah otherwise its all on me.
And yeah I dont have the leet hammer. The motherfucker does not drop anymore if I'm on the raid. FTL!
