Normal parse zw for conjie?

Ceder · 11-29-2009, 04:38 PM

Was just wondering what would be considered a normal parse zw for a conjie in like WoE or Kurn´s..

With normal I mean an optimal group setup and not a omg-I-pwn dps..

Was just wondering how much I got left to pursuit for, I have gotten myself up to 70% spell crit and did KT yesterday with quite a nice group setup and I outdpsed a wizzy without my myth...

Would also like to send out a thx to Xalmat for his nice threads about AA setups, those have helped alot!

Glad you find my guides useful.

Zonewide parses are relatively meaningless. There's also a lot of things that influence what kind of damage output you can do, including the zone, the specific mob, the group makeup, tactics used, whether you're pulling aggro off the tank or not, your gear, your group's gear, etc.

Hmm yeah I guess... Was just so happy to break 6k on Sir Rouland in KT yesterday

Damn.. I really need my myth and some more crit gear

Yeah unfortunately everything is relative for reasons mentioned above so its hard to say. My personal advice is just to keep track of how well you do in these zones, and what buffs you have. (Troub/Illy/Wizard/etc) Then see where your dps goes as you get more gear/different setups/etc in these same zones. Obviously this isn't very exact but you should be able to notice general trends and get some idea about your progress.

6K on a single target that involves alot of moving around with no myth + mostly t2 gear is pretty decent though. I'd expect you do pretty nicely on the AE trash in that zone as well. Perhaps skirting 10k on some of the pulls?

yup, all relative. Don't measure yourself to a number thrown out by someone that you should be hitting. You really need to measure yourself to the rest of your raid/group.

Summoners are considered T2 DPS, so you should be sitting below rangers, assassins, wizards, and warlocks. If you are above them or parsing the same, then you are relatively doing a great job.

The optimal group setup includes a troub and an illy, so if you are missing one of those, you are going to lose out on a lot of DPS potential.

Two other words to consider A and A Similalry geared toon with max AA should generally be higher parsing toon given all else being equal. Stick with Xal's AA advice, work out your optimum cast order (there's a thread in here somewhere) and you will go far. Otherwise just keep trudging along for those spell and gear upgrades. SOunds to me like your're on the right path. A 6k on a KT named is a lot more respectable than a lot of similarly situated summoners I have seen.

shoot for 8-10 pct of total damage.

pickup or buy your myth and it gets a lot better

Unbuffed right?

Depends on the zone.
Single target heavy zones like PoA I usually sit around 9-10% of the ZW if I have TC I'm more twards the 9, if UT, more twards the 10.

If its an AE heavy zone like YIS, TC means around 10-11%. UT puts me close to 12%.

So to answer your question, no. 8-10% would be buffed for most people in most cases.
